My Last Session I Got to Play

Having taken the quest from Falcon, we rested up and headed out to his hunting lodge, with him in tow. On the way, we stopped at the potion Maker’s house to ensure that the manticore’s were not yet harassing her. They had not been, and we promised to return to assist. When we got toContinue reading “My Last Session I Got to Play”

Another Session I Get to Play!

We begun our journey after a long rest, heading into the forest with the centaur. It wasn’t long before we came across a large open Glade, which looked ominous and foreboding with how dead all of the vegetation was.

Rime of the Frostmaiden: The Finale

This Was Supposed to Be a Different Post..

The original plan was to write a post about running a game for young children who are brand new to dungeons & dragons. Originally, I was supposed to be doing just that tonight. That did not happen.

Rime of the Frostmaiden: Someone is Coming to Get Us…
