Realms of Pugmire
Dogs and cats have inherited the world, building nations thousands of years after the Ages of Man. These dogs and cats have been changed to use tools and language, and they (along with other races of uplifted animals) seek to rediscover the world they’ve inherited. Some use the leftover technology of humanity, but they believe it all to be magic. Others seek to create an ideal civilization, using information compiled from ancient, fragmentary lore. The world is dangerous and mysterious, but courageous dogs and clever cats will persevere.
The Realms of Pugmire is a light-hearted and family-friendly fantasy world. It’s one of Onyx Path’s creator-owned games, produced in a partnership with Eddy Webb and Pugsteady. Combining the ideas, passion, and creativity of experienced designers with decades of experience in producing quality roleplaying game products, these creator-owned games push the boundaries of the “Onyx Path brand” in new and diverse directions.

In the past in “Claws and Effect” I’ve talked about how humor works in the game and ideas for long-term play. Plus, both Pugmire and Monarchies of Mau offer advice on how to “hack” a game into a different shape. But I thought this time I’d pull all that together and show you what effect each … Read more
Writers are deep in writing on the Tales of Excellent Cats anthology. Another story I’ve gotten a chance to read a bit of was “Listening In” by Aaron Rosenberg. It’s another great story, so here’s another teaser for you. This is a section from the pre-edited manuscript, so some things may change between now and … Read more
“I think I packed too much,” Yosha said, wiping snowflakes out of her wrinkles. “I told you nobody needs that many books,” Pan said as he stood up to push a branch aside. He let the branch go just as Yosha walked behind him, but she was rubbing her face and didn’t notice. Rex rushed … Read more
Eddy here! The realms of Pugmire actually slightly predate the design of the RPG. Back in 2014 I wrote a short story called “Winter of Man” for an anthology, and the response to it was amazing. If you’re new to Pugmire, this story should give you a sense of the world. It’s a bit outdated … Read more

Via Eddy: As written, Pugmire and Mau chronicles can be reasonably swift. It’s possible to go from a starting character to a retired one in ten game sessions. For some people (like me), that’s a feature — I rarely have time for sprawling weekly epics that last for years and years anymore. Knowing that I … Read more

Writers are deep in writing on the Tales of Excellent Cats anthology. I’ve gotten a chance to read a bit of “Where the Heart Is,” a story by Joseph D. Carriker, Jr. (an amazing writer and a dear friend). I enjoyed it so much that I’m passing it on for everyone else to read as … Read more

Via Eddy: Pugmire and Monarchies of Mau both make some subtle changes to the “traditional” fantasy gaming formula. One that I’ve found some people struggle with is the lack of a detailed currency system. Most people seem to get it after they try it for a bit, but I’ve had a number of players and … Read more
