Today I felt like writing about my D&D character from DM Quest, Dakren of Swanbow. He's the character I've played the most throughout my time as a player in D&D, and the character who's gone through the most character development. It's been interesting to see him come to life as a character and to go in directions I didn't expect. The following is a short story that takes place around Episode 100 or so, and it's taken from the point of view of Dakren's mother.
Well, I finally caught up with my purchased Assassin's Creed games. Now it's time to try Valhalla and maybe go back and play Assassin's Creed II to see who this "Ezio" character is all the other games keep referencing. Anyway! Except for the excessive number of hit points that all the enemies on this game had, I really enjoyed this adventure in Ancient Greece, and as always, it inspired some new mechanics and plot devices for D&D games.
Yes, I've been uploading a lot of old stuff lately. This one is actually from two Junes ago when I organized an "all-day" (more like 7-hour) D&D session, to see just how much D&D I could take before I got tired of it. Childhood best friend and fellow DM Quest player Dustin acted as Dungeon Master of the world of Evimeria, and I played with other members of that group as well as my brother. It was a lot of fun to make a day of it, and I definitely wasn't tired of D&D at the end (in fact, I went on to DM my own full session soon after we finished). I've tried to organize similar events and have succeeded only once, in the Horned Lord of Witherstone Tower duology.
It's been about 2½ years since I co-founded a weekly D&D group consisting entirely of Dungeon Masters who rotate each adventure arc. I've made some good friends along the way, had a lot of DM practice, and have collaborated to create a somewhat disjointed yet fascinating world called Amara. The adventurers in this storyline are called the Firebrands, and their adventures are finally up on YouTube for your viewing pleasure!
