I ran my first one shot this past Sunday! It was really fun. It was supposed to be a casual one shot to relieve some of the tension of the epic campaigns that we run. I also wanted to give my husband, our usual DM, a break from the three year campaign we just finished. It was also his first time playing Dungeons and Dragons instead of running it. … More First Time Dungeon Master

The party was getting ready to depart to their next goal and the most dreaded, Elderhaven, the home of the elves. They were high elves that had been changed over the course of many centuries to be more like the Eladrin of the feywild. The magic seeping through from that plane was most concentrated on the smaller island to the northwest. They were notorious for their cruelty and hatred of other races. The party was not looking forward to going there.  … More Panacea

I never really thought there would be an issue with me being the wife of the Dungeon Master. My husband and I work really well together and since we are both super competitive, we hold each other to much higher standards than other people. Still there are always issues that come up.  … More Being the Wife of the DM

The battle with Malthazar in his Ifriti form was terrifying. There was a point where the party thought he had gained the power of Ignus, the fire spirit. Thankfully, that was not the case. He was simply a high level magic user with extra power granted to him by the Queen of Ash. The group had to dodge magic fire hurling at them from the tips of the Ifriti’s fingers while also trying to get close enough to attack him.  … More Liberation

The next day dawned on Milo. He woke up and tried to move but couldn’t. As his vision cleared and everything came into focus he realized he was tied up. Without trying to give away too much, he deftly began to work on the ropes that bound him. Once the guards saw that he was awake they began to interrogate him.  … More The Fallen Thornshield

The party looked on into the darkness towards where the roar had seemed to originate. They waited with held breath and dread for the thing to reveal itself. Out of the shadows stepped a shining dragon. At first glance it would seem to be a bronze or brass dragon but further examination would reveal a completely different answer. It was a gigantic clockwork dragon. It whirred and clanked as it stood before them.  … More The Sting of Betrayal

Milo hadn’t been heard from in a day and they had no leads on his whereabouts. Another check of Aleera’s deck of cards told the party that they had very little time to save the people of King’s Crest and in turn the rest of Novos. They began their day by asking for a map of the city from the old artisan and mapped out quadrants to search for Milo in. They were in the middle of their planning when Kaladrax stopped talking mid sentence and looked off into the distance.  … More A Game of Dragonchess

They crept out of the dwarven artisan’s home, past the bodies of their sleeping comrades and out into the balmy night. They crept along the streets but after a while realized that no one cared or was looking for them. Their steps were bolder as they walked further through the town. They were still careful and wary though, since they didn’t know what to expect.  … More Milo and Hepolita’s Adventure

In the morning the party woke up, refreshed from a full night’s rest. Hepolita was eating a sparse breakfast when she remembered the strange contraption she had found when they had been in Happy Jack’s tent. It cast out projectiles like a crossbow bolt but needed no sudden reloading. It could shoot up to six times before it was empty and she didn’t want to waste the projectiles.  … More Enlightening Conversation

The night was not over. Drunk as they were, Aleera and Kaladrax wandered away from the Oasis after they heard the attendants talking about a snake woman that cured the plague of ash healing the settlers of the Oasis. They were speculating about who she was and why she had chosen certain people to cure and not others. The man who was preaching about her kindness had only said that it was very taxing on the woman and seemed to sap her strength.  … More Reunions and Hangovers
