Many decks of things?

I hate the Deck of Many Things. OK. There are occasions when using it can be fun – usually when the GM puts his own interpretation onto the cards. I’ve seen a version of it show up in a Mage game where the the draws resulted in the start of a major campaign arc. Usually, though, the results of a...

WoAdWriMo: Day 32?

I has been a hell of a month. I mean, it would have to be in order to make it to day 32, right? As predicted, I didn’t finish my WoAdWriMo adventure. I have a good bit done with it, and I am fairly happy with what I do have (but I still need to add a couple of action...

WoAdWriMo: Day 28

Well – there’s no way I’m going to finish this month… but it isn’t too far from done. The point of WoAdWriMo, of course, is to have new adventures available free on the web. That will happen. For me, it will just happen in July rather than June. I realized last night just how much new rules-content I will have...

Separated at Birth?

The reason Angela has few ogres in her campaign world: every time she pictures them, she sees the Dark Crystal Mystics and wants to characterize them as wise and peaceful.

WoAdWriMo: Day Twenty-five

This has been a hell of a month. I had this big conference that I was planning for this past Saturday – and doing largely by myself since my coworker was out on sick leave after being diagnosed with stomach cancer. Friday night, my coworker died during a relatively minor surgical procedure. So, yeah. I’m a mess. WoAdWriMo was going...

WoAdWriMo: Day Twenty-One

Eep! Will I finish? I don’t know. I am fairly sure I’ll have at least 32 pages worth of an adventure. Will it be a coherent adventure, though? Only time will tell. Nine days of time. I should get in a full day or two of work next week on it, which is a good thing. In any case, Goblins...

Feeling reflective

…like a mirror. Today I rewrote the description of this blog for no particular reason. Last night: Beyond Vinland. We slaughtered us some stone-age Duergar and their pet dinobots (dinosaur skeletons with eye lasers?!?). Their boss got away, though. That was a shame. Also, Jeff couldn’t find his digital camera, and I decided not to bring mine… so there are...

Random status update

Last night, I met with Jenn and we chatted about her Exalted game. Then I went home, ate spring rolls, and started creating a new character. For those who care, he’s a teenaged Night Caste Solar from the Realm. He’s a stowaway on a ship and is a bit of a champion for the underdog. (Warning: Don’t follow that last...

Mediocre game night

Last night’s gaming was mediocre at best. We were playing Aberrant. I’d missed the past two games due to travel and work craziness, but my PC had been kept in the loop, doing a bunch of run and fetch type things that kept him off screen most of the time. The set-up was promising. My PC was developing a crush...
