Dragonlance D&D Game Blog

When last we left, our intrepid heroes had just confronted a blue dragon in it's lair. The party consisted of: * Hunter - a half elf ranger, deadly with his bow * Arterion - a Silvenesti mage, possessor of arcane powers * Greybear - a human, member of the ancient order of druids * and Theodonis - a kender (and isn't that all you really need to know when it's a kender) This lucky (or some might say unlike) band of heroes found itself face-to-snout with a mythical (yet all too real) dragon... And while the dragon may have been small, even a wyrmling can be a formidable opponent. The creature unleashed a ray of lightning from the bowels of it's stomach. Theo was the only one in the direct line of attack, and he was nimble enough to avoid it's painful effects. The party poured into the room trying to surround the dragon, but before they had a chance, the small creature took flight down a hallway, around a narrow corner, and out of sight. Theo gave chase and set off a pi...

Not completely related to gaming, but listen closely to the second verse... UPDATE: Newsarama recently did an interview with Charlton Parker of The Deaf Pedestrians . Since Newsarama is primarily concerned with comics, there was no info on his D&D experience.

After the last session, the party chose to rest in one of the empty caves in the complex they were in. Fortunately for them, they didn't attract any attention and made it though the "night" without any incident. Moving further into the dungeon, the PCs went through a shut door and encountered a swarm of rats , including a couple of much larger dire rats , all feeding on the debris in this enclosed area; bugs, worms, and even each other. When the PCs arrived, the swarm immediate attacked. The party was able to defeat the dire rats as well as disperse the rat swarm that was all around them, though Hunter was bitten by the vermin. This path proved to be a bit of a dead end, down the hall they had just entered, the cave had collapsed. It would be possible to excavate the area, but only with proper tools and time! Backtracking, the party went down a path they had previously ignored. This new route lead to a huge open cavern. The area was about 50 feet square, with corrosive gr...

I'm not a big video game player. Guitar Hero is about my speed, and too much of the appeal of that game for me is the plastic guitar-like controller... I dread the day Patty comes home to find me wearing the controller and serenading the cat with my extensive knowledge of Rick Springfield songs... "Don’t you think your friends are talking Alyson? They’re blaming it all on me I’m blaming it all on love" from Alyson but I digress... I've also never play online games, like WoW or Evercrack, but I recently stumbled across a this youtube channel called The Guild . It's supposedly about a group of eccentric online players and their adventures in the real world, from trying to meet IRL, to one player obsessed with another... it's all dark and dry humor... check it out. The only bad thing is the eps are not created with any frequency, and I have no idea what their schedule is for new shows.
