What is This

This is a blog containing musings, ramblings, and content related to roleplaying and wargames. Opinions are my own. There are no assurances about the quality of my work; this is just a bunch of stuff I’m doing.

The Name Scribbles and Horrors

The name of this blog comes from a nickname of a dungeon I started working on during the Christmas of 2019. The full title was The Ruins at Altreboenar, or, A Maze of Scribbles and Horrors. In this place there was a creature known only as “The Thing”, and was described variously by those who encountered it as “a great and scrabbling morass”, “too horrible even to describe”, “like gnashing and tumbling and snapping all at once”, and “making songs of such purity and awful laughter–hideous joy and rambunctious sorrow”. You could hear the singing of The Thing in The Ruins at Altreboenar from far off, and were well to get away from that place with haste.
