The Adventures of Kinglaaph – Episode 8 “Holy Crap, We Survived a Whole Module”

I will preface this episode with a warning: it will be a little anticlimactic, through nobody’s fault but the universe’s. My group plays online, on account of my living on a different continent to everyone else. And due to the nature of technology, this can result in the occasional hiccup. Like when your internet goes […]

The Former Adventures of Cardigan Black, Now Starring the Inventor Kinglaaph– Episode 7 “Will We Ever Manage to Not be Teetering on the Edge of Death?”

Let me tell you a little about a feller named Kinglaaph – King, to his friends. A wingless aarakocra, King has pink feathers on his head and chest, which turn pale, almost white, from the forehead up, and grey feathers elsewhere. He wears a wide-brimmed hat and a poncho over a leather vest with various […]

The Adventures of Cardigan Black – Episode 5 “I Think We’re Getting the Hang of This”

First of all, the most pertinent fact of the session: it was my fifth with a character and I did not die. The curse is absolutely broken, any way you slice it.

The Adventures of Cardigan Black – Episode 4 “Still Running… This Time from a Dragon”

So this week I found myself running away from a dragon, but none of my party members died, which is nice, and I also didn’t die, which is nicer. We came awfully close to a death, but the dice were just favourable enough not to make it so. Not that things were easy, no sir. […]

The Adventures of Cardigan Black – Episode 3 “Running and Running and Running Some More”

I seem to be doing a lot of running when we get into combat. Doesn’t seem to matter whether it’s chasing or fleeing, though to be fair, it’s mostly been fleeing. I dread the day when we get into a fight in an enclosed room. Let’s start at the beginning. We had two nights on […]

The Adventures of Cardigan Black – Episode 2 “Hostage Negotiation”

As the session began, the first thing I did was rapidly defuse the situation with the Redbrands outside their tavern. Considering that we had heard rumours of a secret tunnel that they were using, I figured we had no need to get into a scrap in the streets. Instead, we bid them adieu and made […]

The Adventures of Cardigan Black – Episode 1 “The Devilish Fiddler”

New year, new campaign. Woot woot! This time, since the next homebrew campaign our DM was planning wasn’t nearly ready yet when he brutally murdered us all, we are running (or, should I say, the plan is to be running, since you never can be sure what’s going to happen in a D&D campaign) through […]
