Formal Garden
My sons D&D game is now in a Fey palace for a while. A curious thing about this palace is that depending on which door you go out of, it’s a different season. This formal Garden is outside the North door, which is Spring. While it is a formal garden, there is a wild edge…

Face to Face
Just about to run my first face to face sessions in a long time. Covid’s had us all in lockdown so that all of our games have been online for months. I’ve developed workflows for online gaming. Let see how everything falls apart when we are sitting around the table. Combat will be the biggest…

Eberron: rising
I just received my copy of Eberron: Rising from the Last War and I’m loving it. I bought a copy of the Sword Coast Adventurers Guide recently and while I appreciate the lore, I felt the book was thin on gameplay content. Sword Coast had some interesting subraces, a few new subclasses, and a few…
