I've been in a very dungeon frame of mind since putting out Kozen Crest. I think I'll send my current fantasy character into it to see what happens and to scratch that dungeon delve itch!

Greetings Mythicists! The latest issue of MM is ready, and is packed full of dungeony goodness.
This issue is a big one, clocking in at around 80 pages. A big chunk of that are tables, because there's a dungeon adventure in here that requires a lot of them!
