    How Ninja Conquered the World THE TIMELINE OF SHINOBI POP CULTURE’S WORLDWIDE EXPLOSION Version 1.3 ©Keith J. Rainville, 2020 How did insular Japan’s homegrown hooded set go from local legend to the most marketable character archetype in the world by the mid-1980s? VN connects the dots below, but before diving in, please keep a few things in mind: • This timeline is a ‘warts and all’ look at a massive pop-culture phenomenon — meaning there are good movies and bad, legit masters and total frauds, excellence and exploitation. It ALL has to be recognized to get a complete picture of why the craze caught fire and how it engineered its own glass ceiling. Nothing is being ranked, no one is being endorsed, no one is being attacked. • This is NOT TO SCALE, the space between months and years isn’t literal, it’s a more anecdotal portrait of an evolving phenomenon. • It’s USA-centric, as that’s where VN originates and where I lived the craze myself. And what happened here informed the similar eruptions all over Europe, Latin America etc. Also, this isn’t a history of the Japanese booms that predated ours, that’s someone else’s epic to outline. • Much of what you see spotlighted here has been covered in more depth on VintageNinja.net over the past decade, so check it out... • IF I MISSED SOMETHING, TELL ME! I’ll be updating the timeline from time to time, so if you have a gap to fill or correction to offer drop me a line! Pinholes of the 1960s In Japan, from the 1600s to the 1960s, a series of booms and crazes brought the ninja from shadowy history to popular media.

  • Dooming Your Dungeon
    DOOM-ing Your Dungeons. Lessons in Dungeon Design from Video Games. Sample file By: Irene D. B. DOOM-ing Your Dungeons. The essay you are about to read is the Credits culmination of almost twenty years of my life experiences. It is not a magnum opus, but my Written & Laid Out by: Irene D. B. first foray into codifying a philosophy that I have been bouncing around in my head for Interior & CoverArt by: Irene D. B. the past two years. That philosophy is that our dungeon design can only be improved by Cartography by: Irene D. B. understanding the language of the similar field of level design for video games. John Romero Quotes provided by: Tiogus of Helldorado The most clear example of the intersection of these two fields can be found by looking no further than the work of Jennell Jaquays. Not only is she considered one of the best dungeon designers, with herDark Tower adventure being nominated for the 1979 H.G. Wells Award for Best Role-playing Adventure, but she also has a very successful career as a video game level designer. This is no accident. I hope that you come away from this essay with a new eye when it comes to designing Sampleyour dungeons file 2 Using This PDF You know what’s wonderful? Technology is wonderful.

  • Eye of the Beholder: the Art of Dungeons & Dragons
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE February 12, 2018 CONTACT: Brian Stillman, Co-Producer/Director, [email protected] EYE OF THE BEHOLDER: THE ART OF DUNGEONS & DRAGONS DOCUMENTARY HEADS INTO POST-PRODUCTION, LAUNCHES KICKSTARTER Eye of the Beholder: The Art of Dungeons & Dragons, an exciting new feature-length documentary, has now entered post-production, and is scheduled to premier at the Gen Con 2018 Film Festival in Indianapolis, Indiana this August. The documentary explores the history, influence, and stories behind the artwork that helps create the worlds in which we all play, and profiles D&D artists (both past and present), former TSR insiders, game designers, authors, and fans. Eye of the Beholder is a celebration of the art we all love so much. The filmmaking team of Kelley Slagle, Brian Stillman, and Seth Polansky have spent the last three years traveling the country and conducting interviews with some of the biggest names in D&D art, including Jeff Easley, Larry Elmore, Clyde Caldwell, Jennell Jaquays, Darlene, Tony DiTerlizzi, Brom, Erol Otus, Todd Lockwood, Jeff Dee, Diesel LaForce, Donato Giancola, Steve Prescott, Chris Seaman, and many, many more. These are the men and women who, over the last 40-plus years, helped shape the look and feel of Dungeons & Dragons, from the earliest days at TSR in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin, to its current home with Wizards of the Coast. With shooting and production behind it, Eye of the Beholder is launching a Kickstarter campaign on Valentine's Day to raise finishing funds. Rewards include copies of the film either digitally or on DVD; hand-signed prints by Larry Elmore, Brom, Jennell Jaquays, Erol Otus, Tony DiTerlizzi, and Todd Lockwood; and two different T-shirts featuring new, exclusive art by Jeff Easley! Eye of the Beholder: The Art of Dungeons & Dragons is co-produced by Cavegirl Productions and X- Ray Films.

    by Jennell Jaquays A LOST TEMPLE, A MYTHIC HOARD, SampleAND A LEGEND fileARY LIE! The tales of a long-dead dragon’s abandoned treasure are local legend, just part of a fantastic Tapesty of Unsolved Mystery. Dungeons of Doom Edition A Lost Temple, a Mythic Hoard, and a Legendary Lie! A fantastic Tapestry of Mysteries that are waiting to be solved by a party of 6-8 5th to 7th level Adventurers. by Jennell Jaquays The Dragon’s Secret centers on a mystery from the past: villagers in- vited a gold dragon to bless and pro- tect the region with her presence… for a little tribute… and a temple… and followers... and perhaps just a whole lot more tribute. When the dragon eventually went mad, she laid waste to the surrounding lands in a fiery rage, ending with her death at the hands of heroes. Except… they found almost none of her treasure. In time people forgot the cathedral’s location, but the legend of her miss- ing treasure still inspires seekers to keep looking. This adventure, published in an abridged version as part of a fund- raiser featuring the work of TSR alumni, marks the return to table- top game publishing of Hall of Fame designer and artist, Jennell Jaquays, the creator of enduring game set- tings such as Dark Tower and Cav- erns of Thracia (Judges Guild), Grif- fin Mountain (Chaosium), and M5 Talons of Night (TSR, Inc.). The self-contained adventure fits into any campaign setting and opens the first door toThe Thousand Worlds, her own game multiverse.

    AA#13 A Stand-Alone Adventure XRP6113 Advanced Adventures White Dragon Run By James C. Boney White Dragon Run The little village of White Dragon Run is at the edge of civilization - the place where monsters are a constant threat and adventurers thrive. It is here that reputations are made or broken, and deeds are performed only to be set in verse decades after the real story is long lost. On this thin line between country and chaos lies White Dragon Run, the last stop for the civilized before the well- trodden road becomes the weed-infested trail leading to creatures that would rather fight than herd, fish or farm. There’s a fortune to be made for the up and coming adventurer with the strength, the wile, and the cunning to strike out against dangers both natural and unnatural. White Dragon Run is the final stop before meeting one’s destiny behind the sword, stave, dagger, or holy symbol.
