Got a crazy hair up the rump to go back and do the videos again for my D&D sessions...

Last one I posted was back in April ... and I was doing like 1 or 2 a month. Then April to now, nothing.

Here is Session 10....


Session 11 -




Session 12....



Session 13....



Session 14....


Session 15....




And I have the Legend of Redstone Mountain saving now. Then I will upload and post it.

This came about because one of my players (Jessica) and I were chatting on Discord how we wanted to play D&D but neither had a game that night....
http://tawmis.com/kneurth/adventure-not ... session-01
We've done about four sessions. Her mother even joined us for one!
This is the first notes from that session (still playing catch up...)
Finally got to doing session 2 notes on this...
http://tawmis.com/kneurth/adventure-not ... session-02

And here's some fun audio clips from it... literally, most of it is full of laughter, but I can't post a 2 hour audio clip! :D

Rolling a Natural 1 on a D20 means Critical Fail - which means something going wrong. In this case, my player's character stabbing my NPC.

Beyond20 is an add in we use (makes a bot in Discord) that makes playing really easy - the bot went down half way through the session due to an outage - so we had to use an alternate, way more manual way of continuing to play remotely, but it was such a hard habit to not just click on the character to roll rather than type commands...

*sees the phrase "natural 1"; steps into the corner, determinedly shuts eyes, slaps hands firmly over ears, and waits until the carnage is over* ;)

(And yes, I listened to them all. Ow - a dagger in the shoulder. Let's be grateful it wasn't a sword in the stomach). :shock:

And now I have a question ... how tall is a sphinx? If a sphinx came to a forest, would its head poke through the tree-tops? :) Just wondering, since I have a sphinx transforming from a human into its natural shape in a forest ... and if its head pokes through the treetops, then its human allies will see it and gather around it.

Thanks :)

As big as ye want it to be, really.
Like Egyptian ones were clearly huge.
But D&D ones are just large - so they're like two elephants maybe?
But I have one right now, that's the bow of a Spellljammer that's no bigger than a figurehead of the ship.
Whatever your story needs.

I'd imagine, a Sphinx with ancient magic could polymorph to whatever (woods in a forest) but also use Englarge/Reduce (if you're talking D&D spells).

Shadow Island Update!

This one was very special. The player who plays Arwynn - her mother was in town - and both her children (when I say children, they're in their 30s lol) play in my games.
So she was actually interested in playing D&D - because she'd head so much from her daughter and son about me as a DM. So I completely welcomed her.
And. She. Did. Amazing.

The audio of this was so fun to listen to again, as I wrote the notes out. (The game was actually back on May 25, 2022) - Yes, that's how far behind I am in notes. :D

Shadow Island - Session 7.
The party makes their way to the deserted city of Stormthunder... but things are never that easy.

http://tawmis.com/kneurth/adventure-not ... session-07

One more and I am caught up on Shadow Island, since the player in it and I just play randomly. Usually if we're both bored.
