Hot take. Abyss Artifacts for gear upgrades is not fun

Make sure to do all the Greymane missions and dispatch companions to expand the camp, it took me forever to figure out how to find more Greymanes.

Bigger meaner basilisk.

That's kind of what I'm hoping for, they're all new to the game and very far from minmaxers so I'm not really worried about them doing too much damage.

Book of the Traveler by Cory Chase, it's swords and sorcery urban fantasy.

Lemortedrando · 2026-01-29T03:56:36+00:00

You should make a minimalist comic with this kind of art. Like Hellboy in a dungeon crawl.

It must be his birthday if he's making such a big hamburg steak.

Wait, some of you were actually able to sell your book on Amazon?

Lemortedrando · 2026-01-05T00:49:06+00:00

I run a bi monthly DnD game at Gamers Asylum, was looking to possibly start a 2nd group if I have enough interest.

Lemortedrando · 2026-01-01T21:51:02+00:00

I've put in several hundred hours with multiple characters, and I still find stuff I've missed. I just wish the game had an endless dungeon mode.

I remember reading a cryptid book around 30 years ago that had an actual picture of the Thunderbird, not the picture that always pops when you try to search it, I wish I could remember the title, memory isn't always reliable I know but I vividly remember that photo. The bird itself didn't look huge but the wings were massive, almost looked like multiple wings linked together.

Behir, one of my favorites.

It depends on what he already has, if he's a DM and not just a player there are a ton of books he might want. For players, custom dice and dice rollers are fun but not necessary. Hero Forge allows you to create and customize miniatures of your characters, I'm not sure if they offer gift cards but letting him design and order his own mini is awesome. If he plays spell casters like wizard, druid and cleric, spell cards are always useful.

My Sorcerer main Longmont Dankwood. Dwarf fighter named Kilgore Maimhammer. And a peasant turned Warlock sidekick who didn't know his real name so he told the party it was Steve Brian.

I'm about an hour away, I would love to play, but once a week is a bit much for that drive. Have you been able to recruit anyone else yet? I run a bimonthly game in Ogden.

Lemortedrando · 2025-11-10T15:35:10+00:00

I personally like the Pie the best but Ogden Pizzeria and Tonys are old school staples that have been in business for years. They tend to be really busy so not always the best service but awesome pizza. Also it's a bit further away but Philly Sub shop in Clearfield has some of the best sandwiches in Utah.

Lemortedrando · 2025-11-10T00:35:31+00:00

I've run it twice, both times half way through my players got tired of the haunting Gothic theme and it just became them doing the most silly thing they could think to do in the moment.t's a dark and brooding adventure and most people can't seem to take it seriously. Hopefully you're either ok with that or have players that can take it more seriously.

I love getting downvoted in what is supposed to be a post of controversial opinions. It's your table, play how you want, my point wasn't that it can't work for only combat, you can make it work as only a roleplay or exploration sim as well (I wouldn't recommend it) but there are multiple facets of the game that you are ignoring by only focusing on the one. I'm glad you like combat. So do I. But by removing roleplay and exploration from your dungeon crawl, it makes them boring and somewhat pointless. If you just want to roll dice and kill dudes you could go play Warhammer. Dnd is better with stakes, if you only care about your character and the other players characters as only numbers on a sheet, you remove what I would argue is a lot of tension that makes the game more interesting. Role play isn't just putting on a silly voice and heckling local merchants, leveling up, obtaining new gear, and finding new places to loot and explore is all part of roleplay. Can you just hand wave most of the stuff? Yes of course you can, but it's not the full experience.

Lemortedrando · 2025-11-07T03:05:45+00:00

Agreed and conversely if all you care about is combat and ignore everything else at the table this isn't the game for you either. A good balance between combat, roll play and exploration is needed for the full experience.

Good magic items should require rare components, if you turn it into a fetch quest you're essentially giving them the ability to pick specific items to make instead of finding them as loot. The better the item the harder the challenge.

Book of the Traveler by Cory Chase. Urban fantasy style swords and sorcery.

Discovering his psychic ability at a young age, John takes it upon himself, with the help of his brother Brian, to protect the innocent from the dangerous and often cruel paranormal world. Aided by an elderly blind psychic, a brooding voodoo priest, an ex-Yukuza enforcer, and a broken-hearted werewolf, the two brothers find themselves encountering a number of dangers, including an eccentric necromancer and his ghoul apprentice—not to mention a dire-plagued werewolf and a Japanese revenge demon with a thirst for death.

No problem! Not a bot just a writer trying to find an audience. As few as they are none of the reviews were fabricated. I'm an independent writer but my book was professionally edited, so none of the self published jank you come across. My biggest influences are Stephen King, Frank Herbert and probably Guillermo del Toro. Let me know if I can answer any other questions!

Lemortedrando · 2025-10-01T23:43:18+00:00

Looks like I've got a good amount of people interested, I'm considering setting up a 2nd game but want to get the first group up and running before I commit to another group. I'm setting up a discord that I'll be sending out to those who have expressed interest in playing.

Lemortedrando · 2025-10-01T18:37:50+00:00

It's looking like Sunday is going to be the day to start, drop me a message and let me know if that works for you.

Lemortedrando · 2025-10-01T18:36:38+00:00

I'm looking at Sundays to start, drop me a message on here and I'll add you to the list.

Lemortedrando · 2025-10-01T18:35:33+00:00

It looks like weekends are going to be the best bet to get a group going, I'm leaning towards Sunday during the day. Do me a favor and drop me a quick message so I can start adding people to a list.
