Wizards Watch: Fey Paragon Paths

The Feywild is one of the best additions, IMHO, to the 4E D&D cosmos. My current campaign strongly features the overlap of the normal world and its Fey and Shadow ‘mirrors’. Right now, some of the...

Wizards Watch: Out of the Bag …

Well we all knew it was coming, based on the Legends and Lore columns from 2011 (I posted on these last week…), but I’m still surprised it’s out publicly already: A New Edition of Dungeons and Dragons...

Recently in the 4E campaign I’m running for my kids, the party had a little detour to the Feywild, to rescue a unicorn foal from some evil fey brigands. When designing the short adventure, I was...

DM for Kids: DM Style

GM Merit badges are cool! After coming across this neat set of icons  (I know, quite late compared to everyone else…) intended to reflect a GM’s approach to their game, I thought it would be fun to...

Wizards Watch: Summer lull; Storm clouds gather…

There seems to be a strange eerie calm around the RPG space right now. It’s not necessarily the sort of calm that makes you feel calm … its more the oppressive lull before the thunder booms and the...

Content Corner: Havenscoast Locales

It’s been a slow couple of months on the blog front – a combination of work and summer holidays to blame – things just haven’t been progressing as I’d like! The ‘Havenscoast Project‘ is one such...

DM for Kids: Back in the Saddle (literally…)

In my last DM for Kids column I lamented the fact that scheduling D&D sessions was not happening nearly as frequently  as I’d like! However, my intention was to rectify that over the Christmas...

Icon Rolls

I am definitely not what you would call an ‘off-the-cuff’ DM! The happiest DMing I do is when I’ve prepared well, both in terms of the session that I think I’m going to run, and for those parts of the...
