I hadn't gamed with my fellow players for months - two of them now had new characters and another one had none. She retired her old character which didn't do much for her and didn't have time to prepare a new one. I had a scenario ready to introduce the…
Summervale. The village is rather small. A few farms, a few shops - not sure there's even 100 people living there. Everything in the village has been razed. Mary buildings are burned sometimes by fire, sometimes by acid - the other buildings have been trampled. Bodies everywhere - burnt, frozen,…
The heroes caught up with the caravan in the town of Windby, where the townspeople were eagerly awaiting their arrival. Upon seeing them, they bombarded our heroes with questions - so eager they were to learn of their adventure. The heroes rapidly found Lady Adelinde, who silently wept for her…
Every-two-weeks-Friday-night games are gone in favor of weekend-game-whenever-we-can-make-it-fit-night game. We met up early, had supper. Theoretically discharged social energies, sent the kids to bed and got ready to play. More on that later on.

By this room, I was starting to get the hang of the kobolds. I was familiar enough with their particularities and the traps in the room. I felt I could give the players a proper challenge here. This room is the skull-skull room. And I had something extra planned here.…
This one went well, but was far too easy. I messed up the power level by failing to properly raise the difficulty. Tired of unoriginally boosting a room by adding a critter, I wanted to add a trap instead. So my 6 players were facing 3 kobolds... and 2 traps,…
I tackled this room twice before and did the same mistake twice and basically ruined the encounter. See I redid the maps they gave for the first three room and shrunk them a bit to fit my print paper. Doing this, I deformed the rooms a bit and, not understanding…
Well, its done! I DMed for my group of friends - which includes Steve, the dude who has been DMing for us for the last... 10 years or so... I had not DM for adults in a loooong while. I had may reasons to be nervous and nervous I was.…
