Last night I was sitting up and thinking to myself, "maybe there are a lot more mimics in the average D&D world than characters realize. Like, what if mimics take a while to digest things, so we're always running into mimics that are content to just serve as the everyday objects they appear to be?"

This morning I am thinking about the fact that the Star spangled banner is a song about perseverance through a seemingly hopeless situation. Maybe that idea will help you too?

I got the doggos some D&D toys from Pawp Culture. They are both adorable, but the mimic is the big hit! The beholder is layered so there will be more toys to unwrap as it gets chewed up.

I got myself a bird bath with a smart camera and solar charger, and with a big bribe of bird seed, we succeeded in capturing our first photos today!

There have been tons of finches out there for days, so it took a while for one of them to get brave enough to try the bird bath.

And finally, I used epoxy modeling medium to hand sculpt the cape. I made sure to make the left and right sides even, and I distressed the hem. I added a piece to give it that folded over seam look over the necklace. Then I painted the cape red, and put three levels of protective sealer on it all.

Then I added the necklace, which I made from items purchased from Michael's jewelry department. Amulet is actually a bracelet charm, and the chain was a separate ankle bracelet base.

Then I repainted the entire thing, not just to get Mrs frisby's colors correct, but also to get better contrast out of the door and stones.

I bought the concrete statue from a seller on Etsy. When it arrived it looked like this...

"Ooooh, a SPARKLY!"

...I know that magical fairy doors are popular garden decorations, but I chose a magical rodent door instead.

I put some progress pics in the slideshow.

Remember, "You can unlock any door if you only have the key."

So we found out that Sherlock is part Great Dane. No surprise there. But I found out this week that Great Danes were bred in part to guard German royalty at night while sleeping in the royal bed chambers. This explains some things...

I wrote Guenhwyvar out of existence across the entire D&D multiverse in my Vecna campaign, and the players experienced this story tonight. I've never seen a group of people so motivated to find justice! They're determined to make Vecna PAY for this.

This is how I can tell my particular flavor of neurospicy is NOT ADHD....I also sort my M&Ms by color before I eat them.

I don't know how *you* decorate your life-size D&D monsters for the holidays, but *mine* get festive hats!!!

I think the mind flayer looks especially good in its dapper Dickensian top hat! Thanks to my nephew for that idea!
