It's been a while, so game updates - Spelljammer is well underway, after a side-story involving a new set of characters at the Spelljammer Academy, we're back to the Dragon Heist crew. They fought off some space elves, explored a derelict mind flayer ship, and fought lots of horrible things.

Pre-C2E2 Critical Role live show in Chicago! What a wonderfully weird cross campaign one-shot. Tomorrow, C2E2 begins! Pics in comments, if BlueSky works that way. ???

I bought one omy recent Rock shop purchases not only because it was very pretty, but because it also perfectly matches a couple sets of my dice.

I stand side by side with all of my trans friends. Always, but especially in times like these.

Finished painting Niith, Hexblade/Fighter - Venus's character for our upcoming follow up to Curse of Strahd. Yes, I know I'm terrible at faces and yes, I am aware of the mold lines. Those are after working to remove them. :(

Took a trip to the rock shop today. Got a fancy designer marble, a cool piece of cherry quartz with greenish inclusions, and a yooperlite moon.

Dragon Heist has come to an end. The party met a very large dragon guarding the treasure and convinced him to let the embezzled funds be taken back. With the help of their business partner, Jarlaxle, they avoided being tried for espionage and theft. Now they've reopened their tavern, Lifted Spirits.

Our work rewards portal does have some good options. Better than a melon party.

After another read-through of the Fortune & Glory rules, there were a few small things that we were doing a bit wrong, but nothing that severely effected the game. If anything, the things we did made it tougher. Our unusually wide margin of victory was from a combo of good luck and good decisions.
