Characters created by your humble narrator are now available from Talisman Studios ... Musketeers, a myserious Lady, a Cardinal of dubious virtue and a beautiful portrait painter (among others).
Illustrated by the talented Alida Saxon, written by me, I present to you the Free Musketeers Story Cards, specifically written for Suzerain but convertible to supplement your plot in any roleplaying game that involves swashbuckling.
Happy Friday!
Today my short short story (it's about 200 words) Stolen Kiss is up on Every Day Fiction.
Last night we dreamed of angels.
My latest written creation - a set of eight pirate background stories and one smashing introduction - is now available. It's called Pirates Set 2.
The Gamescapes Story Cards are published by Talisman Studios. Gamescapes products fill out your roleplaying campaigns with additional characters, weapons, locations and story seeds. The Pirates characters in particular have many twisted inter-relationships and a lot of room for a Storyteller (or Marshall or GM or whatever you call yourself) expand and improvise.
Contained in this set: a 21-page high resolution pdf with 8 full color character cards plus a choice of backings. There are two pages of backstory and individual character descriptions to accompany each portrait. As a bonus, we're including cut-out tokens for each character, allowing you to visualise them on our Gamescapes story maps.

A little teaser from the intro. story:
Jacques
DuMaison’s head felt clear despite the rum, despite the lateness of the hour. The masked woman took his arm when he offered
it, walking beside him to the dueling green. He noticed that she too walked with a sure gait, though he’d seen her
drink several sailors under the thick oak tables at the Bosun’s Quarters.
“It’s pitch black,” he said.
“There are provisions for darkness,”
she replied, striking flint and tinder to find and light the lamps that
surrounded the green’s perimeter.
He fingered his rapier, waiting for her to return to him. When she did, he said, “I have rarely lost a duel, ma chere.”

The Secret of Gardons is a twenty-two episode work of serial fiction written by Michelle Klein Castle.
"A precis of the tale - When the Priory of Gardons is burned and raided by a mysterious group of armed men, young Drood the novice must carry on the Abbot's secret legacy, a mission that will lead him through many perils and into the heart of a conspiracy that threatens the monarchy of France. Once he leaves his sheltered life in the country, Drood learns that some of the folk tales he was told as a child are not merely fancy, and not all of them are sugar and sweetness."
