It's that bittersweet time of year again. My blog will wake from hibernation for this month as I participate in RPG a Day. Going to try to keep my answers short and sweet this year. The bitter part? My vacation will be over before the challenge is...
FIRST RPG Played this year:
In spite of all the controversy going on with the OGL and WotC at the time, my ongoing Roll 20 D&D5E game was the first game I played this year. Things have changed a lot around here since that time. The biggest of the changes is that China lifted all the Covid restrictions. The Wuhan flu feels like a distant memory now. Most of my gaming remains online, but we finally have live tables running as well. Let's hope we never go through a time like that again.
I have been running my game since November '21. It was supposed to be an adaptation of Palace of the Silver Princess, but I've taken the party all over the place by running modules that I never got to run before to flesh out the cities and towns in Haven that had only sparse descriptions as originally written. Unfortunately, I unwittingly turned my campaign into one of those inter-planar/multiverse things. Ugh! hate those and it's like I'm running one and I'm playing in one at the live table as well. To make things worse, I crossed a bridge too far back in Halloween of '22.I allowed the party to explore a carnival using a KS supplement that I backed called Heckna!. They have been stuck there ever since. I will not tell a lie, the campaign is looking like old Elvis now, and I'm pushing the party hard down that railroad back to Haven. You can take your pick as to what the setting is feeling like to me now: A) Casablanca B) Hotel California C) Roach Motel.
Still, we press on. Luckily, getting there is half the fun right...right?
