Fortunately for D&D players around the world, there are deliciously few top-drawer enemies lurking about for them to encounter and invariably be steamrolled over by. Critters like liches, dragons, anything from the outer planes, and other such diabolical horrors need to be approached carefully, almost reverently. Leaping in swinging swords and fervently hoping for the … Continue reading How Not to Fight a Dragon

Fight, Swear, Loathe; Chapter 2
Hilde wasn’t sure what she was looking for in a squire, but she knew what she didn’t want. She wasn’t looking for a man, and she wasn’t wild about having a kobold either. There weren’t as many female squires as male, but that helped her to narrow her focus significantly. Most squires could hold their … Continue reading Fight, Swear, Loathe; Chapter 2
Meanwhile, Back at the Ranch…
One of the most hilarious and often overlooked aspects of any D&D game is what might be happening at the player's home base of operations while the adventurers are out looking for trouble. An old Slothjemian proverb goes, "If you go seeking danger, you will find it. If you are patient, danger will come seeking … Continue reading Meanwhile, Back at the Ranch…

Fight, Swear, Loathe; Chapter 1
Life had not gone exactly as Hilde had envisioned it. It had not been an unmitigated disaster, to be sure, but it had not been the sort of fairy-tale princess story that she had dreamt of as a child, either. The more she had thought about it, and the direction it had gone, the more … Continue reading Fight, Swear, Loathe; Chapter 1

Knights of the Domaine; Order of the Iris
The third of the orders in the Knights of the Domaine is easily the most prestigious. It is also the most demanding of the orders, and unlike the first two orders, members of the Order of the Iris are rarely engaged in any other pursuits aside from their duties with the knighthood. They serve the … Continue reading Knights of the Domaine; Order of the Iris
Knights of the Domaine; Order of the Hammer
As one might gather from the name, the second order of the Knights of the Domaine is largely occupied by clerics, paladins, and other similarly inclined nobles that seek to not only serve the King, but also devote a significant amount of time and energy supporting the Church and it's causes. There are also a … Continue reading Knights of the Domaine; Order of the Hammer
Knights of the Domaine; Order of the Crown

The Governor-General’s Oath; Chapter 40
It took less than an hour for two dragonriders to show up, but it was another three hours before actual cavalry from the 2nd Army arrived from Brakoff. When the dragons showed up, Grundoon, Jandle, and Kreg were standing under the arch of the gatehouse, the only structure in which they could take any sort … Continue reading The Governor-General’s Oath; Chapter 40
