After Mythic decided, that the slave girl Moire is quite important to my solo campaign, I decided to give her the whole treatment of a character sheet, backstory etc. This time I tried to generate a HârnMaster character with very exact ideas in mind, that means that I hand-picked most of the elements.

Things are escalating quickly in the Fiefdom of Nurien. Welcome back, dear reader! Today marks a very special episode of Essryd’s adventures on the Misty Ilse of Hârn. I always have a safety net below my characters when I do a solo campaign, and I always just let them perish when nothing else remains. This time I resorted to means so stange, I never did before.

Welcome back aboard the Nibelungen where we left Zane and Quk alone with a more than strange behaving Clara. And what does it mean that she is a prototype? Probably we will find out in this part of the adventure of the Scum of the Gateway Domain.

Raise your horns to Essryd as we approach part 6 of her adventures in the Kingdom of Rethem. After she decreased the maintenance costs for the household of Sigeric by executing his sorry excuse of a son, Essryd is now preparing her next step to get revenge.

Last time we had the chance to see how Clara fixed a business deal with a Vargr with ease. Quk has now everything to build the device Clara needs to shield herself from the Blacksand Widow Network. If you ask me, this can’t go wrong … right?

I don’t know, but I don’t feel complete until cars are moving as fast as possible from A to B. I’m currently watching the Bathurst 12h 2025 and that is just the beginning. This year is again so packed with everything motorsport has to offer: 24h Nürburgring, Spa 24h, 24 Heures du Mans and the list goes on and on and on!

Greetings fellow roleplayers and Hârniacs! Welcome back to my solo campaign in the Kingdom of Rethem where we play Baroness Essryd, head of House Gehwær. I really start to love this little sociopath.
FYI, I implemented a little mechanic (call it houserule or whatever) where I keep track of a mental stability using the Mythic Chaos Factor of each scene. I multiply the chaos factor by three and use the resulting value to generate an EML value for WIL checks. If Essryd is in control of the situation and the chaos factor is low, she tends to get her act together, if the chaos factor is high, she easily gets into rage or tends to questionable behaviour.

Welcome back to Zane, Clara and that dubious stowaway, Clara found on the Nibelungen. We left this strange crew when they departed from the Lepanto system in a hurry. Fleeing from Tahon Rez, the leader of the Iba Yekoth, they also have to deal with an unexpected guest on board their ship.

Welcome back, dear reader! We left Essryd in Nurien after returning from Tormau and now, after 7 days we join her when she receives a strange note from her stewart. In this part, I was finally able to make use of the conspiracy rules in HMK and started investigating further for who exactly the instigators of her family’s assassination were.

As a little diversion from my HârnMaster/HârnWorld solo campaign, I decided to throw in some one-shots using different settings and systems here and there. This time you are invited to follow Zane Douglas, a former Imperial Scout now smuggler, and his small crew through the Gateway Domain.
