DM Chronicles, Session 2: When Cool Meets Satisfaction (Part 2).

September 9, 2007 by The Chatty DM

Scene 3: Evil is a matter of style Following the Self-Employed Mensa Troll, who just happened to be going where the map was leading, the PCs came into another burst Sewer tunnel leading into the darkness. That time, the passage looked like it had been man/thing made. This brought the party to a largish Cavern […]

August 26, 2007 by The Chatty DM

This series will be a DM-centric log of my current D&D campaign, it will not be an attempt at telling a story so much as being a ‘lessons learned’ tool for me to reflect on what was good and what wasn’t so good in the last session. It will be mostly about game mechanics, design […]
