There’s a saying. Or at least I think there’s a saying. Maybe I made it up. In anycase, it goes something like this: Everyone wants to be a writer until it’s time to do the writing. Here’s the thing – creative endeavors are work. It’s not enough to just have ideas. You need to actually […]
It’s a common criticism. Where are the bathrooms in a dungeon? Honestly, sometimes I like to include them. It’s solely so that people who haven’t considered this as of yet will now be cursed with the burden of wondering where the bugbears take a crap in every game they play going forward. […]

Playing digitally online can devolve into a strange experience. Character sheets (especially for modern dnd editions) start to look like consoles of buttons. Whenever you want to do something, just hit the right button and see if it works. The choices lay in which button you want to push. As I’ve had […]
