Dragon Age Oracle Updates

I wanted to let you know we have launched a new dedicated Dragon Age/AGE System blog called the Dragon Age Oracle.

Web: http://dragonageoracle.wordpress.com
Twitter: http://twitter.com/dragonageoracle

My friends and I are all RPG bloggers already and we've been thoroughly enjoying Dragon Age, so starting a blog in support of it was a no-brainer. We launched the site today, and we're looking to have at least one new post per week.

We also want to open it up to other people to write posts, especially considering all the great material already available in this forum. We'll have info on the blog once we've figured out all the details, and we look forward to your participation as well.

We hope you drop by and enjoy the Dragon Age Oracle. We're certainly having fun putting it together.

Quick update on the Dragon Age Oracle:

We're doing great, averaging 130-ish views per day. We're publishing posts steadily every Monday and Thursday, with some smaller news-oriented posts on Wednesdays.

The Poll on What You'd Like To See At The Dragon Age Oracle closes on Feb 20, so please vote and let us know what kind of material we should be working on for you, the readers:

We just published a new short adventure for Dragon Age RPG called The Oleander Maw, a new version of an adventure that was first posted in these forums. It's a great adventure for a convention slot, so check it out:

And next week we have an interview with Dragon Age RPG Lead Developer Jeff Tidball!

See you at the Oracle.

Signed up, and have several hooks I'd be interested in putting forward to you guys once i have them fully developed and written out. Looking forward to see how it develops, kudos.
If a Hero's armour is still shining he either has never used it or spends too much time polishing it. Armour is intended to be used and a Hero's worth should be measured in his armour's scars and dents as well as his own.

Check out my project here.

Great site! Thanks for the links, especially the monster creation article. The box set could have done with a little more in that department.

I'd never before concidered the AGE system as anything more than the rules that govern Dragon Age. I've thought about trying DA with another rules set, but never the rules set with another setting. Poking around your site has definitely given me some food for thought. My brain can stop rumbling now.

Yes, our evil plan worked! :-)

Glad you liked it. Keep checking it, we have new posts twice a week at least.

With all the activity now thanks to the Set 3 Open Playtest, I figured I'd take a moment to remind everyone of our DARPG/Age System gaming blog, the Dragon Age Oracle.

We publish posts dealing with DARPG/Age advice, new rules, monsters, adventures and (my favorite) ways in which the fans are taking the AGE System beyond Dragon Age. We take submissions, too!

Drop by today.
