About Red Wizard

Salutations, my brave fools and enthusiastic embracers of chaos!

You have stumbled into the study of the Red Wizard’s Tower – a haven for game masters tired from long nights crafting perfect campaigns only to have them overthrown by player mischief, players who long for a voice to speak to them not as the problem but as the solution, and worldbuilders who just realized they’ve contradicted themselves thirty-seven times in the last twenty minutes. Take a breath, relax, and enjoy the chaos around you.

Here, within the confines of our vaults, you’ll find:

  • game master tools that make your players lean in and say “what’s next?” (mimic-approved)
  • easy-roll tables that turn lore into emotional warfare (lich-certified)
  • unhinged advice that’s 50% wisdom, 30% spite, and 20% “we should not legally be allowed to GM”

Here at the Tower, we only have three rules when it comes to using our content:

  • Steal it shamelessly. (our best ideas belong to everyone now and vice versa)
  • If it’s boring, haunt it. (Even the gods. Especially the gods.)
  • Feed the mimic first. (It runs our HR department.)

So welcome, one and all, to the chaos. Watch your step – the staircase is judging you.

Who We Are

Rian Allan

Behold and allow me to introduce: the Red Wizard’s long-suffering apprentice (Editor’s Note – Read as: the one who keeps the mimic fed and the stairs from judging too harshly).

I’m Rian – with over 30 years of chaos-causing as a player, 20 years of gamemastering-induced trauma, and at least one confirmed incident of an “accidental” eldritch apocalypse (I am not at liberty to discuss the Kazarian Incident). When I’m not herding the Red Wizard’s rather dubious life choices into something resembling ‘rules’ and ‘blogs,’ I’m:

  • building algorithmically-haunted dice towers (now with 30% more spite)
  • composing adventure modules that actively judge your players
  • negotiating with war-forged miniatures about their extremely concerning pyromania

Find me @RedWizardRian (Bluesky and Threads), where I post:

Behold and meet the Red Wizard’s Feline High Command:

At our tower, our continued survival depends on strict adherence to the decrees of the Supreme Cat Council:

  • mandatory afternoon naps (enforced via purring siege tactics)
  • absolutely precise meal schedules (backed by the yowling of divine law)
  • strategic keyboard occupation (all spellscrolls must be properly sat upon before release)

‘But Wizard,’ you protest? FOOL. The Voidlings demand their tribute, and their judgment is absolute. (Also, the orange one knows how to open mimic chests. We live in fear.)
