So, wow. I have a lot of those physical magazine and I loved this series. I am eager to dig into these gems.

Cellar Dwellers - 8/29/2020 The problem with hiding, is that; you are only hiding. It isn’t safety, because a mistake will expose you. It isn’t security, because otherwise why did you need to hide to begin with? What it is though, is comforting. That somehow you outwitted or outsmarted...

So the group with Myrai, we met via an ad placed by the DM on a forum, for an in person game. All the players were adults, ranging from 25-35 (I'm the outlier, being in my forties). My son almost joined, but college schedules didn't make that workable for "Souls." The OTHER campaign where I...

Thanks. I will say as a player this was not comfortable either. Writing a story or background for your own character that has unsavory or unfortunate elements is par for the course. (Question: how many characters do you know are orphans? A common trope, which can be brilliant or terrible...

The scene with the guard is a touching moment. Well played...both of you :)

Echoes of shame - 08/21/2020 Everyone learns things along the way. That’s just how life works, you experience something, and you internalize it for use later. But sometimes you find you have retained something ugly or have a memory of something you would rather forget, and you wonder; “What...

Glad you enjoy the dilemma. And there is more to the story of "Bad Myr" as you willl soon see ...once I finish editing out the inconsistencies...ugh how a year has flown....

Their Town - 8/15/2020 Fear is a driver. It drives you to do things you wouldn’t or couldn’t normally. It guides you on things to avoid, fate, pain, death. Fear can be a strong ally though, if you know how to leverage it. (Sorry this is late...I blame covid) We looked around...

First, thank you; I am glad you enjoy the style. For others reading, yes I do intentionally avoid the spell names. I like describing the mechanics instead, as it feels more like a story vs a campaign journal. But there is a second reason for this; while Myrai has learned arcane theory through...

Garden of the Dead - 8/2/2020 I remember a debate in the Civic Festhall where different religions gave their perspective on life and death. One concept which I remember nodding to was the idea that our deaths help others grow. Our corpses become dirt, enrich plants, plants feed animals...

I have been following this on her blog site, and this one was a nice one to see Nasha step up a bit. More credible and competent lizardfolk are needed in adventures. Unrelated; my hour has now dipped its toe into the realm of pirates. But yours would have been more 'fun' to run into as a...

This is one of those monsters that don't have a great description, so the fungus on the walls (as described TO me) and a single picture are all I have to work with. But while the yellow musk creeper (a favorite of mine from the original Fiend Folio) does come to mind, but that ISN'T the...

Ugh...I would hate moving at a time like this. Glad to hear all is well though!

The Depths of Despair – 7/24/2020 We are always losing stuff, whether they are things like your coin purse, or intangibles like your pride when your rival shows you up in a competition. But the worst is people, as we seem to be horrible handling losing someone close to you. I suppose this is...

Yeah...about that. Soon...

A Sea of Change - 7/18/2020 and sorry on being late...but real life you know. Faith is the crux of the multiverse. Yet some accuse those with faith that it is a crutch. And maybe that is true. But everyone needs someone to lean on. So why NOT a power? They at least have the potential for...

A Three Ring Quest - 7/5/2020 Belief is what defines us, not truth. As proof, consider this piece of experience: deception isn’t about someone telling you a lie; its about you believing what is said is true. Even the most outlandish statement, if it is a falsehood, will always be one. But...

The Lightboy - 6/28/2020 Serendipity is where chance leads to something in a happy or beneficial way. Not sure who coined it, but it would have been nice if he coined the opposite. Because it seems to be far more prevalent. The sky was a deep red, as the sun had set, and shadows crept into...

Homecoming Deeds - 6/20/2020 There is a nasty saying that ‘Fiends love to undo the deeds of charity.” It might be true. But there was a sect in Sigil that believe, the more you gave, the more you got in return. So, its nice when the latter happens. But then you keep looking over your...

Well, I'll ask for a link privately. Off course the other solution for you is word substitution for your own slang. "Frak","Farg,"Flip","Sodding","Pike that," etc. Its so common in media (film/TV and the last two are from TSR pre WoTC.). Rewriting drafts is a pain. :(
