Kristmas Kobold Adventure (feat. Krampus)
Every year I have a holiday tradition. I invite a few friends over, make pancakes, and have a Kristmas Kobold 1-shot. I suppose it’s a sort of (sometimes dreaded) holiday-themed adventure, but the cheese factor is cranked to 11 by the fact that the PCs are all kobolds, a fact which has never failed to [...]
The Recycle Bin – Angel Beats and Speaking Well As The Dead
So it’s been a while. I would like to say I’ve been deep in a secluded underground vault, surrounded by nothing but my beloved Pez dispensers, exposing myself to as much media as I could to transmutate into Recycle Bin posts for you all. But there was this issue with my brother, a suit of [...]

Opportunity Actions: Multi-Focus Campaigns
Ok, while my Tarrasque encounter is simmering down to a delicious little event, I’d like to talk about something I’ve long held a fascination for: the multi-focus campaign. If you listen to the latest Dungeon Master Guys podcast, Dave ”The Game” does a pretty good segment that hits some of the basics of the multi-focus campaign. We’ve [...]
