A while back, Yan and I designed a new D&D core class based on the Monster Manual’s Pixie and Monte Cook’s variant Sorcerer (from the Complete book of Eldritch Might, or CBoEM) called the Shaper. Yan has been using/playtesting it for the last 6 or 7 sessions in our game. For reasons I explained yesterday, […]
Adventure Prep: When the end of an era draws near
This post is part of a series that covers the preparations I do for my current D&D campaign. You can follow it here and the various DM logs I wrote here. Yup it’s another game week for Chatty’s gang as I pick up and read through Expeditions to the Demonweb pits and try to hack […]

Registered for Gen Con!
Well it’s done. I registered for Gen Con and I booked the Hotel. I’ll be staying at the swanky Omni Severin hotel which, apparently, sits about 0,2 miles from the Convention Center. Wee! It’s going to be my 1st stay in Indianapolis and my 1st Gen Con experience. I’ll stock up on sleep beforehand! Here’s […]

Mini-Links: Whole Wheat Bastard Boardgame Ninjas!
Ahhh it’s Friday afternoon, a snowstorm rages on Montreal and my boss just gave us the day rest of the day off… Of course, on Fridays, our lab is drenched in fresh blood samples that we can’t leave on the bench for 3 days, so while I can relax and kickback a bit, I have […]
