D&D Adventures in Talmar – Episode 6 “Makepeace”

I have made some new friends. Upon leaving the Feywild on Queen Titania’s request, I followed the Lunar Lady’s directions and found myself in Ravenwhick, the capital city of the human area called Barrenfall. Making my way to the centre of the city, I reached the Kennels, home to the monster hunters called the Bloodhounds, […]

D&D and Death

Today, I figured I’d talk about death in D&D, given the events of my last game. So, spoilers for that game, if that’s something you’re concerned about. To cut a long story short, in my last session, my character, Spoon, died. He tried to be clever, and paid for it in the worst possible way. […]

D&D Adventures in Talmar – Session 3

I became interested in Dungeons and Dragons a couple of years ago, but only managed to start playing when I went back to Australia for a visit earlier this year and found out that a friend from high school was running a game. I joined in, and, well, basically, it’s awesome. I’ve been meaning to […]
