The first world I ever worked on. I started with questions and didn’t build a map first. Since I am a big fan of long epic tales with rich history, I decided making a brand new world and building its history up from scratch as the best way to create it. I just began building the world and cities. I name it Ouros. … More My First World
Krull is a well established miniature already. One of my friends had bought a painted one a while back and wanted some extra oomph on it to make it more unique. I offered to bring out the runes on the shell and show the writing. … More Miniature Showcase
With Kaladrax now sporting his new hand cannon and the rest of The Hand of Destiny waiting on the ship to be completed, they found themselves with some time on their hands. With the greater goal of outfitting major cities with the large cannons under way, there was time to finish certain things off and prepare for what was to come. … More The Bard Off
I love epic stories. I think that’s why I love playing Dungeons and Dragons. I love long narratives full of adventure and crazy villains. Give me a 20 book series and I will gobble it up in a week or two. So I wanted to try my hand at creating my own world. I wanted to see if I could create a living place where stories and adventures could take place. … More My Forays into World Building
My husband bought these on Etsy, they took forever to get here but we got them. I was pretty excited to tackle this project for our new campaign.

The Hand of Destiny was about to leave Avernus when something shimmered in the corner of Aleera’s eye. The lake that ran through the cavern that had once been Tiamat’s prison was calling to her. She could see her weakness in the water. Gold. Thousands upon thousands of gold coins called to her from beneath the surface of the water. She began going into the pooling water slipping out of her friend’s hands. … More Temptation and Preparation
It isn’t solely the job of the DM to create an immersive world for their players. They do a lot. Set the scene, provide handouts, and ensure that their words as descriptive enough to paint a picture in our minds. However, we as players can also do a lot to help us get closer to our characters and the story. … More Self Immersion
Setting a good scene can bring a lovely ambiance to your story. I bought these set pieces at a game shop in my town. I use them when I take my photos for the story portion of this blog. We also use them for important scenes at our table. … More Miniature Showcase
The majority of the Hand of Destiny was walking away from the awful city of demons they had left behind when Milo dropped out of thin air right in front of them. He landed on the hot sand with a soft thud. Sand billowed out from where he landed in a small cloud and a grunt was forced from Milo. After a few moments of catching his breath he faced the rest of his group and smiled. … More Freeing Tiamat
This was my first time painting Warhammer miniatures for a new client. The color scheme for this set was a camo look with bronze and fluorescent green accents. I had to put together the pieces and then glue them together. I know many prefer to paint the pieces individually, but I think it’s better to paint the completely glued miniature first. … More Miniature Showcase
