Brightwind – Episode 24 “New World, New Body, New Mission, New Friend”

The session began with Brakken and Monk floating in the Void, a black, seemingly empty space, with no proper laws of physics. They were floating, but there didn’t seem to be an up or down, and when Brakken threw a handaxe it just kept travelling into the distance before disappearing out of view, only to […]

Brightwind – Episode 23 “Oh Boy”

I’m gonna say it right here: this is the most important session of the campaign thus far. It had highs, it had lows, and it had some seriously key character and story developments. So, without further ado, let’s get into it. The session began the with the party deciding, in light of suddenly finding themselves […]

Brightwind – Episode 22 “Body Hunting and a Twist”

We began the session with a Dragon Fight! Auric Goldtooth, the golden dragon, pulled himself out from under his pile of gold (revealing that there were several seemingly electricity-filled tubes connected to his body) before referring to himself as the ‘Golden Storm’ and blasting Monk and Bull with concussive waves of Thunder. And then they […]

Brightwind – Episode 21 “Escalating Relations”

We began the session with the party waking in the morning to begin their preparations. They knew that the museum was due to open that evening, so had the day to do what they wanted/needed before they were going to meet there to scope things out and see if they could find the shard. But […]

Brightwind – Episode 20 “Auric Goldtooth’s Goldmine Hotel and Casino”

I finally did it. It only took twenty sessions, but I feel like I finally nailed what I’m going for as a DM. A session that was a little zany, rewarded creative thinking, and was more than a little infuriating for my players. Which makes me reflect on the type of person I am, if […]

Brightwind – Episode 19 “The Hollow Knight and the Rising Flame”

This session was one of the unique ones in our group’s history, because it was one of the few where there was no combat at all. That’s not to say nothing happened; on the contrary, some very interesting things happened. But there was no fighting, or more accurately, no ‘action’ sequences. The session began with […]

Brightwind – Episode 18 “A… Development”

This is gonna be big. But probably not long. …that’s what she said. The session began with the party planning how they wanted to acquire the shard from the train. They went back and forth, but in the end, they decided to plant an Instant Fortress (a magic item that they acquired a few sessions […]

Brightwind – Episode 17 “Dawnperch”

We began the session with the party leaving Enochia, followed by three days of uneventful travel on their way to Dawnperch, the apparent location of the next shard, but also the location of Monk’s order. So, this was very exciting. Monk was heading home. The night before arriving, Monk had a dream. He was on […]

Brightwind – Episode 16 “The Three Trials of the Council of Fifteen”

What’s this? There wasn’t supposed to be a session this week. Well, turns out we were able to play after all, and a good thing, because this was an interesting one. In more ways than one. Let’s dive straight in. We began the session with the party in their airship, getting through the final few […]

Brightwind – Episode 15 “Soo… Poppy Exploded”

I wish I was joking. But also, given our group’s track record, I’m not surprised by this turn of events either. I guess we should get into it. We began the session with Brakken hacking his way through the corpse of the white dragon in attempt to find what remained of Poppy, if anything. What […]
