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

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
How Not to Fight a Dragon
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
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 first order of three in the hierarchy of the Knights of the Domaine, the Order of the Crown is also the most numerous in terms of active members. They are the men and women of Fanolania that serve the King in a number of capacities. The most publicly admired of these are the elite … Continue reading Knights of the Domaine; Order of the Crown
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
A King says Farewell
The ruler of Fanolania, King Carloman, has finally given in to his elven spiritual urges, and is readying for his last journey on this world. This is by far the most notable elf to seek transport to the great hereafter, and it is being followed closely by everyone that lives along the king's final route. … Continue reading A King says Farewell
Slothjemian Squires
In some places a squire is a wealthy landowner, or an apprentice knight who learns from their master as they make the journey to become knights themselves. In Slothjemia, though, a squire is in a class all to themselves. Neither warrior nor wizard, rogue or priest (and certainly not psionicist), the squire is something akin … Continue reading Slothjemian Squires
