Introduction Ah, it’s been a while since I’ve had a good series, but I have the feeling this could be one, if I get the words right… As a matter of fact it happens that on irregular occasions my gaming group has a 2-4 days special event, coordinated by one dungeonmaster who is in charge…

Colorful Language & Roleplaying
After reading probably too much of Richard K. Morgan, I’ve the rather strong urge to use more colorful words in our roleplaying games. I have to admit, I have started rather shy and slowly last session. As you might already know if you’re familiar with a few of my older postings, I’m currently playing a…
Easy sidepost
Since I’m a heavy web-stumbler in those countless moments when I’m just caught inbetween two thoughts and can’t decide which path to pick… A few of my recent favorites: Since I happen to dream about a house to live in (every now and then on a regular base – this is a good start where…
of Wizards and Men
After pointing to a nice and probably for some of you very interesting link of a shared project by E of Geeksdreamgirl and SR of Stupidranger– they try to gather as much information on female gamers out there as they can, and as I am in one of those groups with 50% female gamers and…
Adventures of Latizan the Dwarf
Latizan, I know a pretty uncommon dwarven name, isn’t it? Well, guess what – his profession of choice is even more uncommon where he’s from, but not unrespected and far from not-needed. He’s a tailor and he tends to be a real good one, but what’s tailor worth if he hasn’t seen the world and…
Weekend’s most useless (My Life in Song Titles)

Verquer genug? Liebe (Copy & Paste) Anruf bei einer Hotline: Anrufer: Hi, ich hab hier…
DM Checklist
What does a good Dungeon Master do? He creates a campaign where every single player feels like the main character, he balances forces in an imaginary world and creates challenges in physical (Combat), mental (Riddles) and social (Interaction) ways. Well I know there are a lot of DM advice pages and arcticles out there, but I…
Descent Boardgame
My RPG group managed to surprise me on my birthday party with a special present – the Descent boardgame and the first expansion pack to it. After a hell of an exploration day, when we visited 3 wellness SPA’s (first one was crowded³ with 50 ppl in line and approximately 3 hours of waiting; the…
Happy New Year 2009
Another year is over and a lot of things are going on over here. 2008 was a great year in several things – for example roleplaying, it was the time for a great special in the Midnight campaign, it was a particularly interesting Shadowrun year for me and I found at least a bit time…
