Terrorsaur Bandlands - Part 12: Lethbridge – The Digital Frontier.
https://www.hodgepocalypse.com/2026/06/terrosaur-badlands-part-12-lethbridge.html

With this article, the Terrorsaur Badlands regional series is finally complete.

Dinosaurs. Terrorsaurs. Cybercults. Dinosaur ranches. Haunted data centers. Alberta badlands.

And somewhere beneath Quirk Creek, a self-aware Crypto Core still believes the world exists to be processed.

The Terrorsaur Badlands Series Finale

For eleven articles I've been building the dinosaur frontier of the Hodgepocalypse.

Eventually every road led to Drumheller.

The Hallowed Pit is what happens when the Dinosaur Capital of the World becomes the center of a dinosaur-horror apocalypse.

And the landscape itself becomes the monster.

Terrorsaur Badlands Part 9 — Brooks: Chrome Zion

A fortified Cybercult city in the heart of dinosaur country, where:

• Road Crews enforce sacred infrastructure
• doctrine becomes industry
• and the Badlands are taught to kneel

Inspired by southern Alberta feedlots, irrigation systems, ranching culture, industrial horror, and post-apocalyptic weirdness.

Terrorsaur Badlands – Part 8
The Cybercult – Chrome on the Range

The Cybercult spread through the Badlands with repair crews, revival culture, summer camps, and promises to keep harsh country alive.

Then came:
• DynoCybers
• Sanctuary Camps
• Upgrade Plays
• roadside servo shrines

In the Badlands, machine faith wears the face of frontier salvation.

Thinking about doing lore videos in the style of Mr. Welch of Mystara or Warhammer creators like PancreasNoWork for my setting, the Hodgepocalypse. Looking for tips, pitfalls, and examples of similar indie worldbuilding channels. #TTRPG #Worldbuilding #Hodgepocalypse

MASTODON

The roads of the Terrorsaur Badlands are temporary agreements between humanity and the landscape.

Part 7 — Locations of Note expands the region with ferries, haunted mining towns, canyon crossings, oilfields, and isolated settlements inspired by Alberta’s fossil country.

Included:
d100 encounter table
terrorsaur threats
environmental hazards
escalating weirdness

Terrorsaur Badlands — Part 6: Non-Dinosaur Horrors

The prairie remembers.

Fire Ducks that flare with heat
Bone Beasts stitched from fossil nightmares
Coyotes that mimic your voice
Spiders that replay the past

Weird West meets cosmic horror, ready for your table.

Sure, the dinosaurs get the headlines…
…but it’s the plants that’ll ruin your day.

Welcome to the rest of the food chain.
You’re not at the top of it.

They broke through the world.

New post: Terrorsaur Badlands – Part 2: A Land Etched in Stone and Time
https://www.hodgepocalypse.com/2026/04/terrosaur-badlands-part-2-land-etched.html
This one’s all about terrain and environmental storytelling:

• Bonezones as necromantic batteries
• Maze Lands that rewrite geography
• Echo Storms made of prehistoric screams
• Spell-Fire that hunts magic users

Built for play at the table.

The Badlands were never empty.
We just finally learned how to hear them breathe.

I’ve been working on a TTRPG setting called the Terrorsaur Badlands:

– post-apocalyptic Alberta
– dinosaur/demon hybrids
– travel-based survival systems
– and a landscape that behaves like a dungeon

It’s built around movement, risk, and the idea that the world remembers what’s buried in it.

#Worldbuilding #TTRPG #PostApocalyptic #Hodgepocalypse

The next Hodgepocalypse project is bigger than expected.
That means the blog may go quiet while I calibrate.
When it returns, it’s bringing dinosaurs, bone horrors, and dino-ranchers.
Welcome to the Terrorsaur Badlands!
Stay tuned.

The Greenland Revealed trilogy for the Hodgepocalypse setting is now complete.

Part III: Ports at the Edge of the World explores the settlements, trade flotillas, anomaly zones, and adventure frontiers of the Inland Sea.

A post-apocalyptic Arctic shaped by survival, cooperation, and things humanity does not fully understand.

In a broken world, Ed-Town chose something radical: civic responsibility.

Mayor Larry holds the ley lines together through music and care, not force.
The EURP exists so regular people can help rebuild instead of dominate.

It’s hopeful. It’s messy. It’s still trying.

https://www.hodgepocalypse.com/2026/01/capital-parkland-part-10-coliseum_31.html
The Minotaurs did not come alone.
When their world split, it bled monsters through the wound—arena-born consequences drawn to sound.
The Coliseum stands as a cage with a rhythm, because Minotaurs have already watched one world die screaming for an encore.

https://www.hodgepocalypse.com/2025/05/flatlander-expanse-part-6-uranium-city.html With The Latest Fallout referring to Uranium City, I felt it was the right time to show off my version of the location in the Hodgepocalypse.

https://www.hodgepocalypse.com/2026/01/capital-parkland-part-10-coliseum_17.html
The Coliseum’s layout changes because fragments of Minos leak through it.

Music stabilizes corridors. Emotion opens doors. Some spaces remember you.

Ed-Town stopped mapping it. Minotaurs didn’t—they just stopped pretending maps were supposed to be quiet.

https://www.hodgepocalypse.com/2026/01/capital-parkland-part-10-coliseum_10.html
Minotaur roles aren’t careers—they’re recognized ways of being useful.

Fixers. Scouts. Drivers. Rig Doctors. Guardians. Channelers. Rockers.

Authority comes from competence under pressure, not volume. That’s why the culture holds when things answer back.
#Worldbuilding #TTRPGDesign #MetalFantasy #Hodgepocalypse

Minotaur society runs on ritual, not hierarchy.
https://www.hodgepocalypse.com/2026/01/capital-parkland-part-10-coliseum.html
Soundchecks before danger.
Pits instead of courts.
Battle of the Bands instead of street wars.

The Coliseum works because this culture contains what answers the noise.

#Worldbuilding #TTRPG #MetalFantasy #Hodgepocalypse

The Coliseum District isn’t just loud—it’s structural. A wound in time that sings back, containing pressure so the rest of Ed-Town doesn’t break. Shut it down and something worse answers.

Where light hibernates, and the road remembers.
St. Albert becomes the Upper March: a radiant, moving nation of Kin, solar rituals, memory beads, and stubborn hope after the end of the world.

The golden fields hum with prayers. The lanterns burn red.
In Beaumont, Alberta, the night is both sanctuary and sword.
A town that feeds the living and the dead, held together by oil, blood, and faith.
