Doodle Dungeon
Last two sessions of the MOG campaign had to be called off due to scheduling and illness, I still have an annoying lingering cold. There should be a couple more Yellow Planet posts finding their way onto the blog in the next couple weeks. Despite feeling a little cruddy I found myself waking up at 5:30 AM and started scribbling away drawing up a dungeon just for the heck of it (not that there is ever much trouble finding a use for stray dungeon levels). So here reduced to fit on one image is all six levels of Doodle Dungeon in all it's un-keyed glory:
Click for the the 150 dpi image. The working file is a layered photoshop file at slightly over twice the resolution with each layer lined up one over the other but it's a little too big for a just for the heck of it blog post.

The Yellow Planet
Introducing The Yellow Planet: A creation of my
preschool aged son, full of ninjas, robots, and zombies.
The Yellow Planet, is a world with no
moon yet in the night sky shining down on the often present yellow sands are
the neighboring Red planet and Blue planet.
The people of The
Yellow Planet dwell in houses near grand rectangular pools of precious clean
water, The red water of the wilds must be cleansed before it can be safely
imbibed. The yellow sands give sway to great swaths of yellow flowers making it
tricky to tell one is moving into fertile territory from a distance.
Zombies roam the wastes and are also controlled by many home
owners set to tasks such as simple home maintenance, tending the garden fields
near the homes, or standing vigil against raiders and thieves. The floating
cities of the Blue Planet are full of hostile cannibalistic zombies zas can be
viewed by a quality telescope.
There are old places and the occasional home on the Yellow
Planet that are guarded by Robots of ancient design, few men know the secrets
of their repair and construction. Some of the Yellow planet Robots can be
controlled by men but some are mad having suffered damage in ages past and some
have been reprogrammed by the raiding robots from The Red Planet.
The Yellow Planet is ruled by the King and Queen of the
Yellow Planet who are the most powerful ninjas of The Yellow Planet. The ninjas
do not all agree with each other and the constant battles and chaos between
the ninja clans makes defending the populace at large tricky for the ninja of
The Yellow Planet.
So there you go gentle reader an outline and overview of The Yellow Planet as dreamed up by my son (just turned 4 not so long ago). More posts to come.
