  1. A new live-action Dungeons & Dragons: Ravenloft series is heading our way. Details here bit.ly/46FDvrS

    Who should play Strahd?

  2. I don’t think Strahd’s origin story is capable of supporting a TV series; it’s a pretty bog standard backstory. Just retell a version of the actual adventure or do some sort of anthology show where new people are captured by the Mists each episode.

  7. I am absolutely itching to run some #Vampire #TTRPG, but before I can even think about that, I'm on the hook to:
    - Finish the #Pathfinder campaign (one or two sessions left!)
    - Run the original #Ravenloft campaign using #LightFantasyRPG
    - Run a short #CyberpunkRED campaign to try out the system
    - Figure out which module I want to run in #13thAge

    I'll get to it eventually...

  8. I figure I have two or three sessions left of my current #Pathfinder #RiseOfTheRunelords adventure path, then it's off to the original #Ravenloft module using #LightFantasyRPG with some updates to the adventure. I'm also really looking forward to getting my little brother into the group.

  9. I'm really close to finishing my #Pathfinder campaign and, with things the way they are, I'm really itching to run something antidisestablishmentarianist with some punk vibes.

    We've got the original #Ravenloft module lined up first, and then #CuberpunkRED, but I'm itching for some #VampireTheMasquerade to take down the powerful elites.

  10. Sunday, I got to run another session of my #Pathfinder #RiseOfTheRunelords campaign for my party. I got to run a full haunted house section that felt like it had the players really invested in the horror of it all. That was a trick, considering it was a sunny Sunday afternoon when we hit that part of the session and the birds were singing out in the yard.

    I really love the haunt rules and mechanics in Pathfinder. I'll look to see if there are ways to integrate something like that into the original #Ravenloft module, when I finally get to run it.

    It had a very Evil Dead feel for me. I really enjoy getting to really get into the descriptions of all the creepy things and getting to do some eerie voices.

  11. We finished the fifth module in my #Pathfinder #RiseOfTheRunelords game yesterday. I had thought the party would take two weeks to get finished, but instead of fighting their way through the Iron Cages of Lust, they bargained their way through and sent the succubus and her daughters back to the abyss where they belonged... and wanted to go anyway.

    That means that next week will be #SessionZero for the original #Ravenloft module using #LightFantasy that emulates #DnD Basic/BX. We'll also be introducing new players to the group as a trial.

    It'll be a nice break from dealing with feats and lengthy stat blocks in Pathfinder and act as a tryout for expanding the group for games after we finish our Pathfinder adventure path.

  12. I just finished another #Pathfinder #RiseOfTheRunelords session with the gang. It was hella fun. The players finished exploring the Festering Maze of Sloth and I really got to pull out all the stops about how disgusting it was down in the bathhouse turned sewer. I also managed to get some good rolls in landing damage against my players, which I almost never get to do.

    The only thing I don't like about Pathfinder is that there is so much going on with the NPC character sheets that it's easy to miss things. All the extra powers and feats bore me to tears. I'm really looking forward to running a lighter game again. I'm definitely not a fan of crunch. It gets in the way of running a fast, smooth combat as I have to flip between multiple pages of creatures, spells, and the PHB for rules.

    It doesn't look like we'll get to #Ravenloft before Halloween this year, which is disappointing but fine. With luck, my players will be okay with an #OSR game, but at this point, I'd settle for #13thAge since it's lighter than Pathfinder and the monster descriptions are tight and powers are well described in easy to find places. It's a much easier game for me to run.
