[QUOTE="TerraDave, post: 4027414, member: 22260"] WotC_Rodney seems to have Chris Perkins as a DM, and Black Dragons seem to be in all these play-tests. [INDENT][COLOR=DarkOrange][B]Chris Perkins hates our gaming group [/B] Posted By: WotC_Rodney, 1/31/2008 9:09:27 PM K, so the title is misleading. We had a really wild session last night, and I've just got to write about it. Things started out with the party divided into two groups. My group had gotten teleported halfway across the island we many miles away from the other group, who was still stuck in an ancient Yuan-Ti temple. While my group fought for our lives against giant beetles in a lichen-infested pit, the other group was riding down through the mines on a mine cart. There was about a 20-minute span of the game where the tiefling warlock, the human fighter, and the dragonborn warlord were careening through the tunnels, dodging giant bats and nearly getting themselves killed. The real excitement came when we faced off against a large black dragon. It was our first solo fight of the campaign, and holy crap was it hard.
