+10 With her timbers a-shivered and mains’l in shreds The Chameleon limped slowly around the heads A port drew in sight and repair was assured. But take care and beware, for all those on board. Any Port in a Storm The Chameleon slowly made her way into port, her mainsail shredded beyond repair. Grateful though […]
+10 Fear shook the crew as the claws raked the deck, But Rootsmasher plunged his sword in its neck. The gryphon was dead, but no hope of plunder Afloat in our boat with the sail torn asunder Death from Above Six strangers boarded the Chameleon at the port of Drake Guard. Six companions alighted in […]
+10 Draw near the fire and warm your bones While I strum my lyre with soothing tones. A tale I will sing ye of sadness and woe And gladness and madness, with blade and with bow… A Test of Blade and Bow Five stood in the afternoon sun with the roar of the crowd echoing […]
00 You may choose to heed this wisdom or ignore it at your peril. Actually, this is really just a list of my past frustrations about D&D and is a precautionary tool of stuff I will make sure I avoid doing in the future. 1. You meet in a Tavern Pretty much everyone has experienced […]

00 Day 27 – Where do your adventures usually begin? In a tavern. Not really, although I have used that once (it was the Prancing Pony). It’s such a tired old cliche and yet still gets used today (Waterdeep: Dragon Heist, I’m looking at you). I try to throw the players into the thick of […]
00 Day 26 – Do you prefer miniatures or ‘theatre of the mind’? I can’t play this game without minis. But I respect those who do. We’ve always played D&D with miniature figures, right from the start. Even before Grenadier and Citadel released their first ranges specifically for third game, we were using home-minis on […]
