I don’t remember all the details, but back in the mid 1980s, the D&D Competition at one of the UK GenCons featured an all half-orc party. We had been shrunk to tiny size by a wizard and dispatched into his drainage system to retrieve a lost magic ring. I’d been partying a bit the night before...

Loving this. I’m currently playing in the awesome Enemy Within campaign ( using WFRP rules) and this is bringing back great memories of the early part of the story.

I’d go for either Keep on the Borderlands or Phandelver, maybe with Steading of the Hill Giant Chief in third place?

Justin LaNasa isn’t fit to lick Jennell Jacquays’ boots, both in terms of contribution to gaming and in terms of humanity and decency.

As a retired high school principal, I’d suggest contacting your local high school to see if they have a gaming group. If they do, a donation of books and/or minis would certainly be welcomed, especially as times are hard financially for so many. I realise I’m talking from a UK perspective where...

@dave2008 Just to keep you updated. My face-to-face group played Friday night ( Scarlet Citadel by KP if you’re familiar). I’ve placed Consitium as a prisoner of the Derro on Level 4, who has been keeping the other prisoners alive ( including the paladin’s lover, who was captured in her...

My gaming group discussed this idea tonight and speculation coalesced around an all bard campaign in Forgotten Realms with a party called Waterdeep Purple, or an all half-orc bard campaign, with the party called Orcestra. I’ll see myself out......

Such sad news. Jennell was the greatest dungeon designer ever IMO and was a giant of this hobby, but also a wonderful human being and a fantastic leader of transgender rights, as well as basic dignity and kindness. Rest in Peace. Rest in Power.

Brilliant! Love this story.

Again excellent. Thank you for posting. I’m getting Elric of Melnibone vibes, from Arioch’s point of view ( albeit a lawful Arioch)!

Superb. Looking forward to the continuation.

I read the obituary, Dave, and was deeply moved by the picture painted by the words. Aurora is a truly beautiful name, but the person was more beautiful by far. Aurora was clearly a light in so many people’s lives, and that light will always shine in memories, both the happy ones and the sad. I...

@dave2008 , you may not want to do this, and it may not help at all, but if you want to, and whenever you feel ready, if you want to post your daughter’s favourite character here, I would be honoured to utilise that character as a major positive NPC in my own campaign. It may be that many other...

The 1381 Peasants Revolt in England had the obvious long-term cause of the unfair feudal system, but this was exacerbated by the impact of the Black Death (1348-50) which created a massive labour shortage and changed the economic dynamic in the peasants’ favour, despite the attempt by the...

I am so sorry for your loss.

My granddaughter, who was 8 at the time, tried to befriend the tied-up wolf in LMoP and rolled a natural 20. The aforementioned wolf, now named Whisper, became her pet and lasted through the entire campaign and beyond as I played them through other adventures to level 10. She now has a large...

Or to Southampton, thanks to Bargate.

I love this site. Thank you @Morrus and all the moderators for everything that you do. And happy 24th birthday!

Way back in the early days of White Dwarf magazine, Don Turnbull did a series of articles called Monstermark ( kind of an early version of CR) and it featured green and red Martians. So the natives of Barsoom were a thing back in around 1977, at least in UK D&D circles.
