Introduction A. Long Post!! I was not planning on this post being so large (~13k words and 37 pages). I was expecting it to be a few thousand words at most.

Once I had originally purchased the DnD Beyond version of the Eberron book I created a character or two and the single character I kept from that small amount of playing is the one that I am using for this campaign. I am going to be playing a House Deneith Dragonmarked Human Male Fighter. This is a smidge significant, because I NEVER play humans. Yes, I am that guy. Oooh, I did play a human female in our first FFG Star Wars game a several years ago though! Here, I was specifically looking to play a soldiery dragonmarked race.

The genesis for this post is from my weekend Twitch stream where I stream politics on Fridays (for ~3 hours) and Saturdays (for ~ 1 hour). I was wanting to add something different to my stream to help make my thoughts clearer to others, so I was thinking using Scapple which is an amazing mind mapping tool that I use A LOT when I write or when I need to attempt to clarify my thinking (such as you see in this post).

After completing our Dungeons and Dragons (D&D) campaign – Descent to Avernus – we will most likely be shifting over to a new survival horror system – Alien RPG. We usually take a sci-fi break every so often between D&D games which is always welcomed. In this post I will offer a quick analysis of the system and provide a way to use Fate’s amazing storytelling tools to help drive and maintain the game driving forward and to increase the depth of storytelling.

Today I went to my daughter’s school’s Veterans Day program. Once I returned home from that I started writing first by putting my thoughts into a few Facebook posts and then moved those thoughts to a draft blog post as I am want to do. I really needed to get it out of my head, and because of that I also live streamed my thoughts on this through my Twitch channel too. It was an emotional day and I am NOT that sort of guy.

Introduction If any of you know me in real life you may or may not know that my entire family (as far as I am aware) is conservative – some even blindly so. As agonizingly progressive as I am this makes family events a very delicate thing. My mother and I cannot even broach a […]
