Tomorrow night is the second session of the newbie group. One of my assignments to them was to come up with names for their characters. One of the women who plays an elf found a name generator and came up with a first name I can't pronounce with the second name 'Bearcharger'. So when I pass her in the hall at work she chants 'Bearcharger'. I'm very much leaning on doing a AD&D version of the Kingmaker adventure path from Pazio. I think the beginning hex crawls are fun and manageable. Then I was thinking of slipping in various adventures I've bought. Classic AD&D adventures and OSR stuff. I need to go through some of my things and decide.
Then on Saturday, as long as we don't get buried in snow, going to playtest some 5th edition D&D with Rob (Bat in the Attic) DMing and Al from Beyond the Black Gate might be making his way down. Again I am sure it will be decided by weather. Then there will be handful of others there. I'm curious to get a feel for the new offering. I've had the playtest stuff for a while I haven't looked at it.
I can't remember the last time I had 3 games in one week. And Whisk doesn't even want to strangle me. She may by the weekend.
Living the dream!
ReplyDeleteMaybe you could include Whisk in the playtest? Would that keep you safe?

ReplyDeleteremeber when every elf was named "Elfstar" or some variation of that "cosmic hippy" theme? :)
Hope the weather holds out! I wish I could get in on the 5E playtest.
Technical question:
ReplyDeleteHow do you arrest someone in control of a Tarrasque?
What? No hints?
ReplyDeleteZz: We put it to sleep. It was too risky for our m-u to try to control long-term because of the potential for the control to be reversed.

I'm definitely envious, but happy for you. Game on!
ReplyDeleteKaiju: Nice of you to mention but no game for me this weekend.
ReplyDeleteCheers and boogie boogie.
controlling a tarrasque.. Thats insane!! So can you comment on your 5e experience as long as you don't give anything away? I'm doing some Pathfinder tonight, we are about 3 sessions into the Jade Regent campaign...
ReplyDeleteWow! Three games and no strangling -- that is a coup. Enjoy it!
