Tabletop RPG

The Deck of Many Things, also sometimes known as the Deck of Hazards, is a magic item that started its life in the very first supplement for Dungeons and Dragons.

You!

So this past Satruday, the Blizzard Watch folks played Dungeons and Dragons again, something we all enjoy doing from time to time.

I've never been what you'd call a stickler for canon in any franchise.

Tabletop RPGS predate the MMO video game genre, and MMOs borrowed heavily from their predecessors.

Once a month, the Blizzard Watch crew gets together to play D&D, and in our last session we continued our adventure in the world of Otherweald with DM Joe Perez.

Last week during D&D Live we learned that one of the upcoming D&D projects is Fizban's Treasury of Dragons, a sourcebook that's all about the second, and arguably cooler, part of the game's name.

I once spent three months painstakingly kludging rules together for 5th Edition Dungeons and Dragons so that my friends could play in a game that was more like a fantasy anime like The Vision of Escaflowne, only to realize I was breaking my back to do something Exalted already did, but better.

Most Dungeons and Dragons campaigns, especially in fifth edition, end around level 10.

Last month's TTRPG stream was a special Mass Effect-themed one shot game, but now Joltin' Joe Perez is back to DM us through another installment of his Otherweald campaign, and the gang will set out from their current location in the desert towards the jungle location of the ancient temple of Lilith to reclaim a jeweled chalice sacred to Hela, goddess of death.
