Dragonlance D&D Game Blog

As a big fan of LEGO and D&D, it would only seem fitting that one influence the other. The Centaur (Male) ( Note: This design is not completely mine, I did make some slight mods to versions I'd seen elsewhere online).

Cover A Cover B Dark Mirror (FR); The Legacy (DL) The second issue of this comic finishes up both stories stared in issue #1 . Once again, I won't go into too much detail on the Forgotten Realms story, other than to say that I liked this more than part one. There was more action and twists here, while the first part just seemed to be a straight chase. I didn't like the art for Nojheim (the goblin); he looked too much like Dobby from the Harry Potter books and movies. For the Dragonlance story, this issue picks up with Raistlin and Palin alone in the archmage's laboratory, while the portal to the abyss is still open, awaiting the arrival of Takhisis. In the laboratory, Raistlin tries manipulating his nephew to embrace the quest for magic power above all else, as Raistlin had done years before. On the other hand, Palin tries to convince his uncle to close the portal and come back to Solace with Caramon and himself. Raistlin reveals that he will keep the portal open and that h

In the first edition Dragonlance Adventures handbook, pcs on Krynn could only be a max of 18th level? The rules stated that if a character went beyond 18th, the PC would leave Krynn for some other realm. I always figured this was an attempt to keep power levels somewhat under control, as opposed to Greyhawk (and later the Forgotten Realms) where plenty of NPCs exceeded 25+

I just installed a new app on my iPhone so I can blog. Now the big question is will I write more of less?

Another video series I stumbled on, "D&D PHB PSA", is a sometimes funny collection of skits relating to D&D. The general idea is that on each episode, a few people (iconic D&D character types) talk about issues personal to them. The first episode features Mialee, Jozan, Gimble, and Lidda in "confessional" style interviews. Note, some of the later episodes have a bit of NSFW humor. Creative Juices, the group that produces the series, currently have about 40+ episodes on-line, with each running around 15min each.

Cover A Cover B Dark Mirror (FR); The Legacy ( DL ) For this new comic series, Devil's Due Publishing , which have successfully adapted the Drizzt books from The Forgotten Realms setting as well The Chronicles and Legends trilogies from Dragonlance , took that same idea and applied it to an anthology series. Since there are literally hundreds of short stories published for the various D&D worlds (including Ravenloft , Spelljammer , and Dark Sun in addition to FR and DL ), they created this book as an outlet to adapt those works into comic form. For their first issue, they feature two of the most popular characters across all the D&D settings, Drizzt and Raistlin . Cover Art A might lead you to think that this would be some kind of "crossover" story featuring both characters, but a quick scan inside the book clearly shows that the two main characters are in two separate stories. This issue contains part 1 (of 2) of the FR story "Dark Mirror", which appe

Stumbled across a new game-related web series, Fear of Girls. I've only watched the first episode and was cringing and laughing the whole time. Right now there's only two episodes, but #3 seems to be on the way.

Sorry about the lack of updates to this page recently. I've been out of town for the last few weeks without access to a computer. I had planned to schedule a few items over the month, but I ran out of time before I could get anything ready. I should be getting back on to some kind of regular schedule shortly, starting with the review of the new Worlds of Dungeons & Dragons comic as well as updates of my ongoing game.
