  • Pathfinder: Age of Ashes, Chapter 1, Episode 1

    Our first session is now available, for good or bad. Although this is far from a professional video, I am decently happy with how it turned out. Of course, most of the credit goes to the group for providing the details of the story. https://youtu.be/M5Zfggo_aik After reviewing the video several times, I continue to have…

  • Pathfinder – Pokey Darkstrike Jr, Dwarf Fighter

    The second of our merry band is a rebuild of the season 2 character, though now a descendant. Pokey Darkstrike is a Dwarf Fighter, played by my son, who has only recently started playing roleplaying games with us. As a player, he is eager and learning quickly, though of course has challenges occasionally when the…

  • Pathfinder – Norm, Goblin Rogue

    As we start to roll out our 3rd campaign, I am going to try to capture a bit of the characters as time permits. First up is Norm, the goblin rogue of the group, and a long time local of the town of Breachill. Norm is focused on Thievery, utilizing his enhanced dexterity to alternately…

  • Age of Ashes – The Cast

The overall mix of options has been interesting – my initial concern was a bit of repetition the character process, but all characters are unique and different. Additional adventures may have challenges, but for now, there are more than enough choices. I will provide more detail, once…

  • Ages of Ashes has begun

    Our first session of Age of Ashes for Pathfinder second edition started on Sunday, and was a mixed success. The game itself was good – everyone seems to have adapted to the new rules and mechanics fairly well, and the story thus far has everyone engaged. The challenge was mainly with my juggling of the…

  • Fantasy Grounds

    As part of our upcoming Age of Ashes campaign, we are going to try to add some virtual tabletop options, specifically the Fantasy Grounds tool. For those players with a laptop available, I will be asking them to install the client version, to be able to (hopefully) connect reliably to a GM session on my…

  • Pathfinder Season 3

    The books are in hand, the characters are (mostly) completed, and we are just about ready to launch our 3rd major campaign with the Age of Ashes, using the new Pathfinder version 2. This Sunday will be our first game, though it will likely be a short session since we still have a couple of…
