Had a great 6th session last night with the crew. The party has left the starting area of Erybend where they discovered a cult working to resurrect chromatic dragons and felled a dragon wyrmling. They are on the way to the free city of Greyhawk and I couldnt be more excited. #ttrpg #dnd

Started really digging into some foundational prepping today. Got all my notes and things added to my Obsidian vault and now I know what threads I have to develop and all the players have hooks to follow. I also spent some time planning out the party's first dungeon. #dnd #ttrpg

Yesterday we had what I THOUGHT was going to be session 0: planning characters, making character sheets and tying back stories to the world the party will be starting in. Little did I know 3/4 players had made their sheets! We spent an hour talking key story stuff and ended up running a session!

It's been two weeks since we played the last session of Eve of Vecna, the fight was fun but I did a poor job wrapping things up after 20 levels. I think because A) I was so over this module it was getting tiresome and B) I think we're going to run a high level one-shot or two to tie stuff up.

Ran the penultimate session of our current 2 year campaign last night, having done light of Xaryxis followed by Eve of Ruin. The latter is truly a dreadful module, the last third feeling rushed after several chapters that took serious work to keep on the rails of comprehension. #dnd #ttrpg

Spent some time today looking through how to build a campaign in the new '24 rules. Realizing that knowing what my players what characters they are going to make is an important element if I am going to shape the world around them/from their adventures. Starting to look forward to Session 0.

I didn't know what to do with this account so I figured I would make it a diary of being a DM after about 2.5 years doing all prewritten modules. I am about to embark on my first campaign of my own making, and I am a little intimidated but I figured it could be helpful for others!

SHOHI OHTAMI, some call him sho-hey. What a pitcher, many are calling him the best, not the best American pitcher, he's from another country. Throws the ball very hard, and he also hits the ball very long distances...a very big beautiful ballpark, there's shohi, throwing the ball and hitting it

"Civil War isn’t a vessel for its story, which is so spare it could be relayed in a few sentences. It isn’t withholding worldbuilding or characterization details by accident. Those details do not exist in the movie."
