For those of you who read my D&D escapades, I have just gotten home from my most recent session, which I and all of my players are declaring as the end of a major Arc. A "season finale" if you will, which will continue onto season two next week. I have titled this session "The Darkening Skies" in my usual literary format, and it started as thus...

This week, we had three players at the beginning of the session.
Greg as The Knight with his cohort The Hood

So since I last posted I've had a couple of more D&D sessions between endless college essays and job-hunting (which has been putting off the next chapter of ALBHO. Terribly sorry about this, but the chapter is at about 15-20% done. I'll work on it more once finals are over next week). Since my exploits of screwing with my players seem to amuse a few of you I'll make these a bit of a regular thing.

So as I've said once or twice before, I'm currently running a D&D campaign with some of my friends as the Dungeon Master. Finally, I can be the god of my own little world. Anyways, I had a little experience a couple days ago during a session that I would like to share with you.

So, my party of five this session consisted of...

When the most recent chapter of A Life Beyond His Own was published, a discussion sprung up about what Briarbuck's stats would look like on a Dungeons and Dragon's template. Intrigued, I took an hour or two and made a couple of profiles; one for Briarbuck when the group first encountered him, and one for when it finally came down to a fight. Just sending this around, in case anyone else finds it interesting or wants to use it in their own campaigns.

Now, I know in my last blog I promised to have something up by Christmas. This didn't exactly happen, now did it? Through circumstances entirely the fault of myself Chapter six of A Life Beyond His Own only got finished and put up this very morning, whereupon I went to sleep until four in the afternoon. Now, in order to make it up to you all, I might as well make good on the other part of my blog post, which is a glimpse at the synopsis of the story that I'll be working on after I

So, earlier today (or I suppose yesterday, since it is past midnight at the point of writing this) I finally finished my first agonizing semester at community college. It's been so long since I've worked on the story, I actually had to go back and read through chapter five and what I've written of chapter six to see where I am. If everything goes according to plan (between upcoming Christmas(which I still have to do shopping for) dealing with family(I don't like my family) and making dungeons

So, to the ten or so people who will actually read this, I feel wonderful to inform you that the writer's block that I've been battling for the past couple of weeks has finally been overcome, and I am currently hard at work on Chapter 5 of my singular story. I could have worked before the writer's block had settled in, but College Midterms screwed me over. In fact, they might be what caused the block in the first place.
