'I was looking at my character sheet after levelling-up and thinking 'what have I done now?!''

We encounter some hags in a swamp. This can't go well for us, but let's see how much we can make it worse. Duncan the harrier faces up to the large hag, and starts to use his increased movement to build up some defensive manoeuvres. But he pauses. 'I have all of these cool harrier […]

We find out that the dragon head snatched from us through a portal was taken to a place called Viper Swamp. We are vaguely familiar with it as a location, being about a day's travel away, but know little about it itself. Duncan does some research when we get back to town, and comes back […]

'You pass the final hurdle, and approach the dragon's cave. Sulphur hangs heavy in the air, the sounds of breeding... uh, breathing...'

Guardians appear in some of the rooms, guardians who are […]

The sheep skull is out of the lake, its flow of poison no longer affecting the river, and the skull itself looking more like that of a dragon now that it's not distorted by the water and we had a small discussion about how we've probably seen etchings of dragons enough to make the connection. […]
