We were all a little nervous as we set out to explore the abandoned slums right on the other side of the wall, the gateway to old Phlan. The first group of creatues we saw, Kobolds, took one look at us and ran. That was a good boost to our…

Compared to newer games, Pool of Radiance is very much like an older style dungeon crawl. There’s enough story here to tell, but just barely. To me, the look, style and personality of my characters matters. A lot actually. So I’m going to treat this much like I did my…

Its funny, I’ve had this site called “DavesGaming” up for almost two years. But so far, all I’ve done is the Infinity Engine games Icewind Dale and Baldur’s Gate (1 & 2). Well no doubt, I tend to dig in on an interest and spend several months or years before…

Our expedition was to learn the fate Amnish Captain Bryam Lancameth. His widow has wanted an answer for many years. The ancient Dwarven Kingdom in the Troll Hills has been over run by, wait for it, trolls. And other things. We will see what can be found. Eh, goblins are…

We proceeded into the Drow city of Ust Natha, undercover as Drow ourselves. This is truly a dark and twisted place, and a deranged parody of civilization. Worse, we have to play like we fit in. In different ways this will be hard on all of us. Hopefully we can…

Jaheira had suggested a few times that she should head back to the recently liberated Druid Grove and assume leadership. I hate to part ways with her, but I finally had to agree it might be a good idea. It could prevent a return of the darkness we just freed…




As you mentioned a few days ago, SeeDream *knows* D&D creatures! I still add some details (like I described kobolds…
