A Cthulhoid type venture. Not somewhere you want to be. Fairly proficiently done.

Dragonslaying, Norse reincarnation style. Not quite to the standard of his other stories, I think.

Hanging around Spanish noble types is bad for your health. This time, it took a while to work out whether this gentleman Was Don Leopard, or Don Lupin. The latter was the case, and causes quite a few problems.




If you suspect a priceless gemstone with a magic-type name may be connected to cthulhoid alien monsters, well, I would suggest that trying to rob your local jewellery store bare-handed is a less hazardous activity than the acquisition of such an artifact.

As dreams of the woman Lilitu haunt the warrior Pyrrhas, necromancy is in his future, it would seem.

If an old priest tells you that the body in the tomb is an undead Spanish nobleman, and you happen to be a credulous cowboy, next time, believe him!
