We all know the way the old ads went: "You got your chocolate in my peanut butter! You got your peanut butter on my chocolate!" Last night's game was something like that, except you need to substitute the words "chocolate" and "peanut butter" with "dragon" and "lich" respectively. These are not two great tastes that … Continue reading A Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup of Doom
Real Life Background
Game Called on Account of Life
Nothing is more frustrating than to have to put on hold a perfectly good D&D game because real life intrudes and insists upon itself. This week it is inventory, and in two weeks it will be inventory at another branch of our company. Neither of these is an acceptable reason for us to miss out … Continue reading Game Called on Account of Life
That is a lot of dead Lizard
Let's hear it for the dames! Without a proper warrior of any kind, and without significant sorcery, the self-described "Badass Bitches" took on and took down Druuna, the green dragon that ruled Forêt Verte. This was the longest battle against a single enemy I have ever been a party to, and it went badly for … Continue reading That is a lot of dead Lizard
This will be one Memorable Night
There is a certain hilarity in how the world conspires to make our lives interesting. Last week the my D&D group decided to go ahead and tackle the green dragon that has been making their lives miserable. She is a cantankerous soul who has a penchant for harboring grudges that she is reluctant to let … Continue reading This will be one Memorable Night
Feedback Accepted!
Thank you everyone that checked in on the premiere of book three yesterday. I can see from the numbers that there were quite a number of newcomers, and several views of Chapter 1 of "Fight, Swear, Loathe" that I am especially appreciative of. One dear soul even went so far as to reach out and … Continue reading Feedback Accepted!
And now, Book Three!
We here in the real world are excited something awful about tomorrow's premiere chapter of "Fight, Swear, Loathe". It was a wonderful time writing it, and taking a deeper look into an intriguing character is always a lot of fun. We hope that you enjoy the experience of getting to know a formerly background character … Continue reading And now, Book Three!
Strategery
An often overlooked aspect of Dungeons & Dragons is time spent planning. I do not refer to the copious amounts of time spent by game masters to keep every session as engaging as possible, but to the planning that must be done by the players as they stagger foward in the storyline. A lot of … Continue reading Strategery
*Drumroll*
And lo, the title for book three was unleashed upon the world. And there was much rejoicing. Only two more chapters of "The Governor-General's Oath" to go and we can get right into yet another literary quagmire. Are you excited? I am. This is my eager face.
Borrow an idea, improve it, and set it free
Long ago when I first came across the details of the Knights of Solamnia, I was immediately intrigued. Here was a lavishly intricate hierarchy for a system of lesser nobles that was perfect for any game setting requiring a group of armed, determined, and heroic leaders to see society through difficult times. As presented in … Continue reading Borrow an idea, improve it, and set it free
Book Three is on the Way!
For everyone just about sick to death of that old orc Grundoon, take heart. Although still a central character (and what a character he is, am I right?), it would be a mistake to think that the third book in this series is all about him. In fact, it is all about somebody else entirely. … Continue reading Book Three is on the Way!
