See part 1 here and part 2 here… this is the last part I swear… (I’ll have spent more time writing this session log than actually playing it!) The PCs followed the Wolf lord to meet with Kharasutra’s General. While dodging troupes of Armanites (Centaur Demons, a shoutout to my buddy Cayzle) and buzzing Chasme […]
The World is Full of Dungeons
We’ve recently been having some long discussions that essentially started as, “OMG Dungeons and Dragons 4th Ed. is just WoW!!!11!” I was very surprised when I was reading the 4th Ed. preview books I saw an acknowledgement of the influences of recent games like World of Warcraft on the tabletop genre. Dave’s number one response […]
DM Chronicles, Session 11: When the stars are right… Planar Awesomeness! Part 2.
See part 1 here. Also, please note that while the adventure is technically Expedition to the Demonweb Pits, about 90% of what happened last session was homegrown. Do not think of being able to replay this without some serious work! Seeing an overwhelming horde of arachnids attack the Elven compound of Iritidil’s House, all characters […]
DM Chronicles, Session 11: When the stars are right… Planar Awesomeness! Part 1.
Previously in Phil’s game… Our heroes investigate a series of Drow raids on Elven interests in Ptolus. Re-visiting familiar (under)grounds again, they meet and vanquish numerous Dark Elves and recover interesting documents. Meeting with Rule of Three again leads our heroes to obtain a cryptic Prophecy that talks of Demon slaying weapons, gates, keys and […]
Inq. of the Week: Save vs. Rod/Staff/Wand
Just like me, 38% of you will be starting a new campaign when D&D fourth edition comes out. 24% people are going to stay with 3.5, though not necessarily for reasons that are anti-4e. Those who don’t play D&D and those who will do whatever the DM decides (including several of the players in my […]
Review: “Dragonlance: Dragons of Autumn Twilight” DVD
When the announcement was first made, I was excited about the prospect of a Dragonlance animated movie. As the voice cast was announced, I was even more excited. Some big names were there- Kiefer as Raistlin!- which made me think they were sparing no expense in making a cherished novel from my teenage years into […]

32.33—Repeating of Course—Percentage of Success
A World of Warcraft Collectible Miniatures Game is coming. Details are still vague on the website, but there’ll be starter packs and booster packs as you’ve come to expect from this sort of thing by now (and to go head to head for your random prepainted minis dollars with D&D Minis 2.0). Some examples of […]
Saying goodbye to a PC: Lillee’s letter to Cruguer.
Lillee, Yan’s Pixie Arcane Caster is leaving the group this week to be replaced by a new character. While our group hasn’t developed strong ties or built any spectacular interrelations, there was something building between Lillee’s concern for Cruger’s well being and Cruguer’s pained tolerance of that somewhat annoying little ball of energy. For those […]
