Session Zero – Baldur’s Gate & Elturel: Descent into Avernus

Posted on January 26, 2020July 7, 2020Author pblyPosted in Baldur's Gate & Elturel

I am hungry to do another in person 5E Game and our group decided to do Baldur’s Gate: Descent into Avernus with me behind the screen. Those of you with time on your hands may have already read my long-ass review of this adventure. Very long story short, this one will be tough to run.…

Genesys Character Creation: C0-LE

Posted on October 10, 2019July 7, 2020Author pblyPosted in Uncategorized

I recently signed up for a Play-By-Post game online using Genesys by Fantasy Flight Games. We are going to be playing in the Android campaign setting. FFG and WotC put out several games over the years (boardgames or card games) called either Android or Netrunner for this IP. It is meant to be a Cyberpunk…

Baldur’s Gate – Descent into Avernus

Posted on October 3, 2019July 9, 2020Author pblyPosted in Baldur's Gate & Elturel

I want to preface this review by saying that of all the 5E releases to date, this is the one I was anticipating the most. I have been pumped for Baldur’s Gate: Descent Into Avernus, from DAY ONE! DAY ONE SON! Yet my expectations for Descent changed multiple times from announcement to release. When the…

Baldur’s Gate, Part 2 – Heroes of Baldur’s Gate

Posted on September 18, 2019July 7, 2020Author autumncshawPosted in Baldur's Gate & ElturelLeave a Reply

Heroes of Baldur’s Gate was a huge surprise to me when it came out. Maybe I was just out of the loop. This adventure came out in 2019 from one of the writers of Dragon Age: Origins. It draws heavily from the Baldur’s Gate video games. Heroes takes place at the same time roughly a…

Baldur’s Gate, Part 1 – Murder in Baldur’s Gate

Posted on September 18, 2019July 7, 2020Author pblyPosted in Baldur's Gate & Elturel

Those of you who follow my Twitter account may have noticed I am very eager to get my paws on the upcoming D&D 5E hardcover adventure, Baldur’s Gate: Descent into Avernus. I was sold on the concept of a Mad Max inspired sandbox in Hell. I’m getting some Dark Sun vibes from the shattered wasteland,…

The D&D Version of The Iron Bull

Posted on August 1, 2019July 7, 2020Author autumncshawPosted in UncategorizedLeave a Reply

I’m dipping my toes here into Character Creation Speculation. Every week the Total Party Thrill Podcast creates a new character trying to hit a new archetype. Sometimes they make character from fiction like Spiderman, sometimes they make a character who fights different, an archer who fights in Melee, or exploit a specific rule like how…

Planescape: Well of the Worlds, To Baator and Back

Posted on July 24, 2019July 7, 2020Author autumncshawPosted in UncategorizedLeave a Reply

One thing I want to do is adapt some adventures from other campaign settings. This way if my home game has a night where the DM can’t make it the group can see some of the other campaign settings outside the Forgotten Realms. I decided I would find some low level adventures from Eberron, Dark…

The Origin of PCs

Posted on July 17, 2019July 7, 2020Author autumncshawPosted in UncategorizedLeave a Reply

Please forgive me stealing the title of this from Order of the Stick. I was giving some more thought to PCs. I’ve been a player in hardcover adventure playing group for over a year now. I seem to have a bad habit of playing the PC I should have played in the last adventure. Or…

Acquisitions Incorporated

Posted on July 11, 2019July 7, 2020Author autumncshawPosted in UncategorizedLeave a Reply

I have been an Acquisitions Incorporated fan since the beginning. I was into Penny Arcade and PVP for about 5 years, 4th Edition D&D got announced, and then they bring on these guys to play D&D and then they release the recording. And it was funny! And interesting! They did three podcasts before moving to…

About Me

I am THE SnarkKnight.  I guess I am supposed to put stuff about me here. So have some random Fb quotes about me:

“I realize this might sound disingenuous on facebook, but I really hate talking about myself.”

“I am a great problem solver. What I am not is a great problem avoider.”

"I am not the Kwisatz Haderach. I cannot be many places at once."

"Nights like these I wish I'd gotten a PhD and invented Time Travel."

"God I love the internet."

"I need a device that gives me an electric shock if I check my email or CNN more than once every 15 minutes."

"I want to see Brad Dourif and Steve Buscemi do a movie together."

"I realize that stuffing on my hot turkey sandwich is redundant. I do not care."

Add some wine, politics and that just about sums me up.
