It's been a long, long while since I posted here but for those interested, I ran a panel at PAX Australia about Games Mastering. Sort of a hints and tips hodge podge. It turned out pretty well overall and we've learned a lot if we do one again next year. The audio of the session can be heard...

Just a heads up for all you grognards, young and old alike, that I'll be DMing a session of Original D&D at Gencon Oz. You can see the session details here.

The Mysterious Tower Defeated! DM’s Foreward I count myself very fortunate that I get to play in two very different, yet very enjoyable, gaming groups. I’m doubly fortunate in that I have a chance to DM D&D for both groups. The second group (so named only because they formed some time after...

I had a very interesting experience tonight as I DMed for one of my groups. The party's "home base" is the city of Leukish, the capital of the Duchy of Urnst. Currently the party has been holed up there for a few weeks as they train, identify items, buy property and generally wheel and deal...

I love collecting the WotC D&D minis but often curse my luck as I seem to pull multiples of certain minis that I figure I'll never use. One of these is the Skeletal Equiceph from the Underdark set. I disliked it yet I seemed to get one in every second booster. I'd mutter and spit and throw it...

As a DM I know there is no such thing as a perfect session. Prepared notes are forgotten, a vital feat or ability gets missed, a player doesn't react to a dramatic moment the way you were hoping ... there's a million reasons why a DM can brood after a session and wonder what happened. But...

One of the PCs in my current 3.5 campaign is something of a pyromaniac. Actually, come to think of it, a lot of the PCs in my current 3.5 campaign are pyromaniacs ... But I digress. This particular pyromaniac is a domain wizard (fire domain, from Unearthed Arcana) and has recently hit 5th...

While WoTC's Adventure Archive is a great place to find mini-adventures I've still only managed to find one or two that may suit my particular needs for our next session. What I'm basically looking for is a mini-mini-adventure for a party of around 12th-14th level. The session will only go for...

I originally posted these links in response to a thread in the General Discussions forum but figured this is probably their rightful place. They're just a few weapon (including a misc. magic item) sketches with stats and background story that I did for the guys in our recent campaign. They...
