They’re hoping to find some magical help (spoilers: they do!). Play time: 4 hours Heroes: Drew the human fighter (2) Ray the human bard (2) Ward the […]

Witches of Frostwyck: Session #3
The adventure continues! Last time, our heroes killed a dead saint, met some woodsmen, and got magically trapped in the village of Frostwyck. They’re hoping to get out quick (spoiler: they won’t!).
Witches of Frostwyck: Session #2
The adventure continues! Last time, our heroes escaped from a prison barge and fled into the woods. There they scavenged for food, clothes, tools, and weapons while evading beasts and the deadly High Templar. They ended the night at a ruin where they rescued an old (?) man named Yurikai. But things are about to […]
Witches of Frostwyck: Session #1
A new adventure begins! Five strangers meet under miserable circumstances, which only get worse and weirder. Witches of Frostwyck is my new campaign featuring Slavic mythology and folklore, focusing on survival, suspense, mystery, and a teensy bit of horror. Our heroes find themselves a thousand miles from home in the forbidding north lands just as […]
Our heroes returned, once again via video over Discord, to explore the dark and deadly halls of the Obsidian Keep. Will they solve the mystery of the Red Storm? Will they loot the palace of its arcane treasures? Will they suffer horrific mutations and mutilations? Yes to most of that.
I had a great group of new and old players last night, including three folks who had never played before. We linked up character data using DndBeyond, and we ran the session using video over Discord. Everything went really smoothly. But what about the adventure? What is The Obsidian Keep???
We continue right where we left off in Grave Titan Harvest, somewhere deep underground where miners, books, and wizards have all gone missing. Can our heroes save the miners? Will they exchange all the books? Or will they be eaten by adorable little mushroom people?
After my crew finished Ragged Hollow Nightmare, they wanted to carry on with their characters. So I decided to place a little sandbox mystery just outside of town: Grave Titan Harvest. Will they find the lost miners? Will they befriend a dead sky-whale? Which mad wizard will they kill first?
Can four strangers escape from prison? Will they free the witches, lepers, and spore-folk? Will they take over the fort and live like petty warlords???
This is it! The end of the road for our heroes! But did it end in triumph, or in tragedy??? Once again, my merry band got together on Discord for a voice-driven session of Ragged Hollow Nightmare. But I upgraded us a little bit by live-streaming a battlemap using MS PowerPoint. I streamed the working […]
