Tips about naming your characters
From the Easy Button to using Athletes for Inspiration a couple paths on how to create names for your Dungeons & Dragons characters.
Queen and Konstruct: A Goblin’s Lyfe
There are two important things in a goblin’s lyfe. I’m talking about all of us, the gobkon, the hobkon, the mulkon — all of us. Your relationship to the Queen and your Guild. This is hard for you humans, with all your divergent nations and cities and faiths and disgusting menagerie animals to understand. I’m…

Arise & Descend Session Two & Three: Goblin Caverns
After being ambushed along the trail we learned of a cave from which these goblins raid the civilized folk along the merchant’s road. Within those caverns may just be Gundran and Sildar. So we headed out, an attempt to rescue the men responsible for paying us. We mount this rescue operation out of self-interest, revenge,…

Alleway Lives
That petty gang that hangs in The Drop is up to something. The other day they cut a lift that Piyu was working. The trader from Qin, by way of Telse, lost a crate of dry goods, and the front of their boat needed repairs. It seems that riverboats don’t take well to cargo falling…
Song for Mehmd
As Saffron gets to know Behn and Samul she wrote a song celebrating their homeland. Night pours over the rolling dunes. First, pink and purple, swallowing the sun-soaked sky.
