Heart on my sleeve
Number of Views :910This is a very personal post for me, and is going to be kind of weird to put out there, as it’s me actually acknowledging a failing on my part. I’m a really insecure person. I am constantly looking for approval from others, something I know is really pointless, since someone, somewhere, [...]

Number of Views :662I’m getting ready to run a new TwittRP over on Twitter, and am posting up the rules here, as well as looking for interested players. Currently, the interested parties are @d20blonde and @b_s_lynn. Note that you will need a Twitter account to play. I tried this about two years ago, and it [...]
Number of Views :547I am now back home and about to give my recount of day 3 at GenCon. Short and sweet it was slower and just as good as the other two. Maybe even a little better if you consider that I won a castle. Seriously. But we’ll get back to that a bit [...]
Number of Views :815Day 2 easily put was even better than day one! We had a fabulous time. We arrived in the dealer hall at about 11 am. Got to enjoy looking through the booths. If it’s gaming related and you like it then chances are very good that you can find it here! I [...]
Number of Views :841Day two of GenCon was busy, busy, busy and fantastic! This morning we woke up too late for the game we were scheduled for, so instead we went over to the Dealer Hall and wandered for a while. Bridget picked up a set of Game Science dice, we got a stuffed dragon [...]
Number of Views :835You’ve seen Bridget’s post, now here’s my perspective. Waking up at 5am is never fun, except on one day: The day of GenCon. We woke up bright and early and hit the road for a three-and-a-half hour trip down to Indy. Arriving around 10:30, we moved to find parking, and I was [...]
Number of Views :787Well ladies and gentlemen, I have completed my first day at GenCon and am about to begin day 2. Yesterday was absolutely wonderful. It was an early trip to Indianapolis from Chicago; not a bad drive at all. I feel as though I have completed my first gamer pilgrimage. GenCon is my [...]

Number of Views :727This final campaign concept is the Great City, a fairly standard D&D world with a twist. The Great City is ruled by the Court of the Enduring, the Devas of the world. Many other races live in the city, but the Court rules with an unshakable hand. They have a very rigid, abstract angel [...]

Number of Views :989Following the last couple of days, we have a new campaign concept, the Empire of Tel. Magic, as we know it, vanished over 200 years ago. The fey races have faded, leaving humanity as the sole power in the world. Magic is, by many, thought to be merely that of legend, as are the [...]

Number of Views :572Continuing on from yesterday’s post of campaign concepts, I present the idea of running a campaign in a war-devastated world: There Is Only War. One hundred years of warfare takes its toll. The once great cities of the Empire have fallen into ruin. Survivors hide in the rubble, facing the armies of Tieflings, Orcs [...]
