a hungry monster with a top hat on ALT: a hungry monster with a top hat on

This past weekend I got to play my kobold monk Longmaw! He slayed a couple demons with his wand of magic missiles and was entrusted with the protection of a goblin knight's daughter

(He also saw the demonic incursion as a great chance to acquire an instant fortress)

Point of Inspiration!ย Dungeondraft Happy Friday! This week Iโ€™m introducing a small change. What used to be called our โ€œWeekly Recโ€ Is being renamed, โ€œPoint of Inspiration.โ€ This just feels more thematically in line. This weeks Point of Inspiration is coming from Dungeondraft! Now, unlike my past couple of recommendations this isnโ€™t a show or a book. Dungeondraft is a map making tool from Megasploot perfect for creating maps for any TTRPG you may find yourself playing and/or running.

This week we're taking a look at Dungeondraft! A great tool for making battlemaps for use in your games.

Getting Started with Adventureย Books! It can be pretty daunting taking the first steps into running tabletop games. When I ran my first game I was racked with anxiety from a number of questions, โ€œwhat if my players don't like my story?โ€ โ€œWhat if I forget everything Iโ€™ve prepared?โ€ and many other self doubting thoughts. In addition to self doubt making my entry into GMing difficult, I was also just flat out unsure where to start.

Using adventure books can be a great way to start running games!

Adventure Book Review: Light ofย Xaryxis This week I thought back on one of my recently finished campaigns reflected on how each session went. I found that I had some strong opinions about the experience of running straight out of a campaign/adventure book.(These are books that provide a full campaign to be played at the table). The experience was overall fun but Iโ€™d be lying if I said there werenโ€™t times I felt too boxed in or confused by seemingly random inclusions from time to time.

This realization has made me really excited to get some games going in this world I've drawn up, but now I've just gotta find players

12.12.2024 16:22 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 1    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

A major lesson, that seems pretty obvious looking back now, is that worldbuilding isn't something that'll stop when I start running the campaign, it keeps going and growing exponentially with the addition of the players as they come and add their flair and give more shape to the world and story
