Yesterday’s GenCon videos have me experiencing ROMO this morning! Relief of missing out.

My players are about to see what the treasure vault of an effreti bound warlock crime lord looks like. #dnd #dwarvenforge

Knees are weak, palms are sweaty fighting in the Chult jungles filled with zombies already. #dnd #dwarvenforge

I’m not sure what to name him. Maybe Snaggle, I can’t wait to have my players face off against this beasty. #dnd #miniatures #miniaturepainting.

I forgot to record a pregame video before yesterday’s session. Many spiders were harmed in yesterday’s salvage operation aboard the Emperor of the Waves! #dnd #tabletopthings

DM: You see some insane scrawlings on the walls, books sit on the tables, 2 gargoyles perch on the far corners, & there are 2 non-load bearing pillars with interesting runes carved in… Player 1: I pick up the books & start reading. DM: We move out of exploration and into the trap, roll initiative.

Shad Ross @hyperionpdx.bsky.social · 14/06/2026

Well brother… I’m gonna need you to roll for initiative yeah! I got a 23! YEAH! Now I’m gonna need you to make an opposed grapple check… and I’m gonna take you to the depths of my lightning breath, make a Dexterity saving throw at disadvantage because you’re restrained… DIG IT! #dnd #miniatures

Sometimes you find a mini that makes an encounter arrive where none was before. The Thornmother is the latest for me. #dnd #miniatures #miniaturepainting

The year was 2002. We were sitting around a card table for D&D and I rolled out a predrawn chessex map with FOUR COLORS! This is almost exactly like that. The chessex map is still stained red. #dnd #dwarvenforge

When my gaming group ventured into Star Wars campaigns our sessions often broke down into conversations about the type of music this group played and no one ever tells you you’re in the good old days.
