Having bought and sold everything, everyone fully rested, new spells learnt, and a familiar with a short expected life summoned, the party heads back to the dungeon of doom. We head back to where we saw the stairs down the to next level without any troubles, and proceed to delve deeper in to the dungeon. […]
Before we started the gaming session our DM took us completely by surprise, saying, 'At some point during this evening I'm going to be asking you all to roll some D20s'. Uh, you don't say.
After killing the evil dead we headed back to town so that our Mage could learn some new spells and we could buy and sell some loot. In this down-time the Mage also decides to summon a familiar, a weasel in this case. The first thing the DM says after the familiar is summoned is, […]
Why did I ignore the message contained in my own advice when having the following e-mail conversation with the DM? The DM's lines are emphasised.

Before a gaming session, do not gleefully remind the DM of how you killed his character in the previous adventure.
I was pootling around Stormwind City when someone asked on the trade channel where he could find Spider's Silk. After a couple of replies I decided that I probably could afford to offer some of the Spider's Silk I hold in the bank, for my tailoring patterns. I ask him how much he would like, […]
Okay, it's time for a quick game: guess the relative ages of the players! But first, some background for the game. My main character, a Human Warlock called Faust, is an enchanter, which means I turn all the neat magical items I find in to dust so that I can make other magical items more […]
