My Tarot Deck of Many Things

I use the Aleister Crowley tarot deck for my Deck of Many Things. The definitions of the cards are here. Here are some of the images from my deck.

Stranger Things, Season Two

My heart warmed when I saw this:

AD&D Monster Manual, pg. 70.

The Difference Between Sharp and Dull Blades. Do Orcs Sharpen Their Swords?

Here is the link to the Video.

Thank You Mr. Gygax

The only good thing about the Gygaxian framework is that it reminds you that you need a framework.

Fun for Halloween

I'm not sure how much value this video has for a long term campaign, but looks super fun for parties.

I Got a New Sword

I uploaded a new sword video. It is not game related but there is a sword.

Mystery

A note on my style of DMing: I appreciate how not knowing something is valuable to role-playing. If the party has not known or experienced something, I keep that information close to my chest. In this sense, the players may genuinely not know what is going to happen in a new situation. A beautiful thing about RPGs is that there are many of these new situations. There may be a temptation to let Mr. Gygax decide the truth of things going in, but I don’t trust him. Additionally, I would not want my players to count on Gygax in dealing with a situation they have not encountered in game. I would rather be wrong in my own decisions, guided by player input, than to let Gygax be wrong for me. That is my philosophy.

A Recent Prop #1

This journal entry was found in a dungeon laboratory not too long ago. I think my players have forgotten it. Oh well. They have their own stuff to consider, and that's all good.
