  • Pathfinder – Happy Feet

    One of the most joyful of the party of adventurer’s is the Half-Orc Fighter known only as Happy Feet. He is played by Carter, who previously had played as the group’s Monk and Bard in prior campaigns. Happy Feet, despite his name, has always focused on his training and martial prowess.

  • 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…

  • Pathfinder: Kingmaker

    In lighter news, and as an update for our Kingmaker campaign, we managed to continue the clearing of the Kamelands this past weekend. The group, starting from Oleg’s outpost again, had managed some successes in the prior session, and now had some spare cash. As a result, they re-supplied, and opted for horses for the…

  • Season 3 preparations

    In preparation for Season 3 of our Pathfinder campaigns, scheduled to start early in August with the release of the Second edition Pathfinder rules and the Age of Ashes adventure path, I have been working to re-evaluate and redesign my podcast capabilities. Apparently the terminology for this is now an “Active Play” podcast – a…
