Campaign Summary: From the Journals of Elis Took – 8.
We reached the waters of the river. Once there, the party debated what to do with the boat. We decided to leave; the spirits’ binding will fade, and can then use the boat to flogat leisurely downstream! But first we hid the boat. Then it was off to Bushton the Old! Night fell before we…

Campaign Summary Sunday Will Continue!
I hit a brick wall summarizing the Elis Took campaign, but that’s on me. We continued the current arc I’m detailing, then took a break. We revisited the campaign months later and picked up where we left off. That arc finished, and we’re on to another campaign now. But we will be revisiting Elis and…

Bring Back the Robotech Novels!
The originator of the petition to re-release the original, unmodified Robotech novels is going to wrap up the petition and take it to Crunchyroll, the current license manager, to see what happens. The petition will remain open, but it would be really nice to break 1000 signatures before that happens. As of press time, the…

#CharacterCreationChallenge – Day 31 – D&D 3E (WotC)
And so I end with a whimper, and not the bang I had been hoping for. This week can die in a fire. No. I refuse to go down that easy. So…the closest to a bang I can conjure on short notice is Scorch Talon. Scorch is a half-elf I created back in the day…

#CharacterCreationChallenge – Day 30 – D&D 3E (WotC)
Well, this month ended in fire, not the triumphant crescendo I had hoped for. So I am going to tap my well of eTools 3E characters so I have something to finish with. This version of Orrin may be the first 3E character I ever played. A CG half-orc cleric of Kord for The World’s…

#CharacterCreationChallenge – Day 29 – D&D 3E (WotC)
Today fell apart. So I’m falling back on the vast library of 3E characters I created when I was futzing around with the eTools 3E D&D program. Talk about a trip down memory lane! Sometimes you just want just have to use a really big blunt object to get the Justice across. Orrin – Half-orc…

#CharacterCreationChallenge – Day 28 – AD&D 2E (TSR)
Following up yesterday’s post, the other task requested of me was to create a 7th-level NPC to serve as a guide for our time-traveling party of PCs. Since I didn’t know what that tricksie DM was up to, I wanted someone who could hold his own in a fight, while being well-enough rounded enough to…

#CharacterCreationChallenge – Day 27 – AD&D 2E (TSR)
Anyone who follows my social medial knows how much I love the Al-Qadim setting for AD&D 2E. I’ve been running a campaign off-and-on now for over 20 years for the Friday Night Gaming group. Occasionally, one of the other players will DM Al-Awadim for a bit, and I get to *play* Al-Qadim for awhile. Awhile…

#CharacterCreationChallenge – Day 26 – D&D 5E (WotC)
This day on my hiatus brings us to a character I created for a mid-level one-shot that never materialized. I was interested in trying a ranged character, which is still not something I’ve focused on in 5E. Child of a wandering divine soul serving St. Cuthbert and a orc barbarian mercenary protecting the region, Holg…

#CharacterCreationChallenge – Day 25 – D&D 5E (WotC)
Building on yesterday’s post, here’s Kevan as he ended up after the conclusion of the initial adventure. We leveled up part way through, and with only two party members, I felt I needed more beef while maintaining some healing ability. So I added another level of Paladin. Kevan d’York – Human Warlock 1/Paladin 2
