As I mentioned last week, I am running an “office” game of Tales of the Yawning Portal. These are some really great adventures, but what they are not is a campaign. These are adventures that for all tense and purposes have nothing to do with each other except that one starts at a level whereContinue reading “3 Steps to Turn Published Adventures into a Campaign”

5e: Blightrat
More than anything, I am a monster designer. Give me a terrifying looking image and I will hand you back a full stat block and description to terrify your players and their characters with.

Inside theContinue reading “5e: Amazing Archetypes for Fighters”
5e: Unbroken Hero
With the Book of Heroes: Heroic Fighter Archetypes coming out next week, we wanted to give you a taste of what is inside. This one is one of my favorites. This is the “you saw Cthulhu and critted your Sanity check” archetype. This archetype pairs well with the soldier background. It is designed for aContinue reading “5e: Unbroken Hero”
