Thought I'd share these notes I put together for Telrhin on resurrecting PCs. Which should be a rich piece of the story if it happens. #rpg #ttrpg

Wrote up an enhanced fumble table for #dragonbane for our campaign: some mirth & mayhem with inspiration from #DCCRPG and the Arduin Grimoire. It also incorporates the Escalation Die mechanic from 13th Age #13thAge. Full details on the blog www.telrhin.com/blog/dragonb...

More delightful #Arduin weirdness: if the Grey Horror stings a Hobbit they dissolve. Everyone else is just paralyzed.

Session 12 of our #dragonbane campaign was surprisingly heroic: a very Chitty Chitty Bang Bang quest to save the missing urchins! Divine guidance, courage, and wits led them to discover the horrors of the Devourer God deep below the city's foundations, and the Cult of the Long Knives feeding it

Happy Independence Day to my fellow Americans! We formally declared independence 250 years ago from the Brits, followed by a short-lived first government based on the Articles of Confederation, then started our second government in 1789 based on our current Constitution 🇺🇸

Session 10: ended up with all new characters in what was supposed to be a side adventure. Thrown out of a bar, a guild house, and inadvertently betrayed the mob (i.e. thieve's guild). But only one of them is addicted to the local street drug "soulfire", so there's that. #rpg #ttrpg #dragonbane

Endorian Bay Campaign session 9: first steps back in civilization as the party arrives in the ancient city of Deleg, covered in the filth and glory of bloody adventure. Just in time for the Culling Festival. Can they con their way to Bonnie's ransom if they only have his head?

Picked up some #dnd "death roll dice" for the table. Alas won't work for #dragonbane since death rolls are Con based. Which is too bad cuz tomorrow's session is gonna need a fistful ;) #blackoakworkshop

Our #dragonbane campaign is in full swing. Session 7 saw the party -- at long last -- escape the island. And for fun I've added an NPC with the new Witchcraft school from the upcoming Book of Magic. Goes well with their pet "demonic war pig" #rpg #ttrpg

Free League just shared the #Dragonbane pre-release alpha of Book of Magic. Love that they include the spells from the core rules so you have them all in one book. Just in time for session 7 of our campaign... we have a mage, and there's a new Harmonism school of magic for the bard

Lots of fun reading through the #dragonbane Arkand beta from the Kickstarter, such a good job breathing life into the setting and making me want to run games there. Next stop for the campaign! #ttrpg

Alexa needed a #timeout. She's randomly playing music or video shorts. And she's convinced I really like yacht rock.

Erma Bombeck: “... not with a parade of guns, tanks, and soldiers who file by the White House in a show of strength and muscle, but with family picnics where kids throw Frisbees, the potato salad gets iffy, and the flies die from happiness. You may think you have overeaten, but it is patriotism.”

Our first game of #arkhamhorror! Not the simplest game to set up and learn, but we stumbled our way through. I can't say the same for the city of Arkham, destroyed by the arrival of the god Azathoth: investigators 0, misguided cult 1 #boardgames #tabletop #games #cthulhu
