Two minor pieces of housekeeping before we begin: first, I am a wizard now, because of several reasons, but mainly because its what I wanted (and, as if to reinforce the wisdom of this decision, I’m pretty sure that making the change saved us from a TPK this week), and second, I have officially shattered […]

Pun intended. It’ll make sense. We arrived at Pelor’s Blessing, the agricultural town run by halflings and firbolg, which had been attacked by giants about two weeks before and was our first lead in researching the troubles in the north, and were met by Abbott Newtree, the spiritual leader of the town. He welcomed us […]
….almost a TPK. Seriously, we were so close. So, so close. The session began with the party, along with Cedric and Rain, in the Kennels, surrounded by Winston and his men. He was calling for us to come out, while we were exploring our options. While Rain, Cedric and I kept vigil at the front […]
Well, we didn’t die. We didn’t even come close to a TPK, in fact. Turned out I was right in anticipating hags, and that was about it. We started out with our fight against Anghus and the sprites and pixies, which went quite well, all things considered. Hector was almost totally shut out of the […]
Once again I’m writing this from my player perspective, but don’t worry, it’s not because I’ve died again. Yet. There are instead three other reasons for it. First, I haven’t quite found my new character’s voice yet. Second, I kind of enjoyed the approach I took to last week’s episode (despite everything that happened) so […]
Once again I find myself writing one of these from my player perspective, rather than my character’s, because, once again, after five sessions, my character has died. Yes, Makepeace is dead. Seems I just can’t get no luck. To begin with, we got back to Crowhaven and explained what happened at the ambush to Commander […]
I am still me. For now. I cannot express my relief that this is still so, nor my fears that it shall not remain. However, since those first heated moments, my anger has been tempered somewhat by recent events. Tragic events. I do not think my anger was uncalled for, but with a little more […]
I am conflicted. There are feelings within my breast that I have not felt in years. I am being torn apart and I know not what to do. I cannot lay my dilemma at any feet but my own. But I can record here the circumstances which have created it. For posterity, and perhaps to […]
What an exhausting couple of days. On our way back from Crowhaven my companions regaled me with further details of their journey thus far, and their encounters with both the Abyssal fissures and the followers of the Trinity. In particular, they explained that just before they met me they went down into the sewers of […]
Creating new characters is one of my favourite aspects of D&D. Usually, though, you don’t do it all too much. If you’re lucky, you’ll get to play a nice, long campaign where your character doesn’t die, so you won’t have to make a new one for some time. Sometimes, however, your character dies, and you […]
