I'm running the game I want to run! And although I miss every player that dropped out or cannot join us as often as they did in the past, I do not grieve for life happens and we played a good game.

Fight on!

Inspiration Pad Pro (IPP)! It's completely free and absolutely awesome. You put in tables (including nested table and operations) and you get out results!

Absolutely indispensable to me given that I run low prep, high freedom campaign. That means I have to have good random tables at hand that I can roll on quickly.

IPP is super simple to use. Here is an example of d10 table:

Table: RR_Class
Type: Lookup
Roll: 1d10
01:Ruins
02:Relics
03:Remains
04:Vestiges
05:Remnants
06:Refuse
07:Wrecks
08:Skeletons
09:Antiques
10:Artifacts

Now imagine writing ten to twenty tables like above and stringing them together to make an output for you. Such is the power of IPP! And best of all is that you have to do it only once.

To be honest I just use A4 folders and a dice tray. Majority of my gaming is online so I haven't had the need to look into gadgets. Sometimes I think about dice towers and dice rollers, but I can do that faster in command line or via discord bot. Let me know if there is some great gadget I'm missing out on...

Having witnessed what kind of financial ruin miniatures bring to those who get hooked on them I opted not to pay any attention whatsoever to them.

I've been using the GM1a Game Master's Screen by New Big Dragon Games Unlimited for several years now and I'm extremely satisfied with it. The product also includes spells record sheet, character record log, cleric spells handout, and magic-user spells handout.

I don't care about dice as long as they are plentiful and roll well.

Over the years I've played with many people, partially because I run our Conquering the Barbarian Altanis campaign as an open table welcome to all who resonate with our play style.

Each and every player left their mark. And for each of the regulars I only have words of praise:

  • dreadlord for dreaming big and incredible flexibility to roll with the flow and improvise on the spot;
  • hellosnoop for limitless willingness to poke things that probably should not be poked;
  • idledoodler for asking important safety questions and for sharing his idle doodles;
  • kickmaniac for naming characters destined to die with R and applying logic during the game;
  • kublaibenzine for leading the way when others falter and for following when others show initiative;
  • mossknight for colourful characters that accidentally cause trouble and for inquisitive nature that draws out the unknown;
  • never_plays_elves for his wisdom, experience, and ability to lead others to safety as well as into death;
  • ryu-ran for being chill while his characters suffer horrible fates and for pragmatic approach to adventuring;
  • samon for taking hard losses on the chin and playing the longest living character of our game so far;
  • sleazy_b for sunny character and getting others out of the trouble he might or might not have brought them;
  • writersean for no-nonsense and courageous dungeon delving methods.

Whatever comes next, we know we had fun.

As it is right now, notable NPCs in our campaign, in the Hara region, are:

  • Abek Namelin, head of wealthiest and most ambitious merchant family.
  • Amulias Imrael, head of oldest and most affluent merchant family.
  • Earani Cor, Red Queen of Hara.
  • Klekless Racoba, a fugitive wizard and former headmaster of Hara's wizards' guild.
  • Old Crus, a retired wizard turned sage with deep interest in the underdark.
  • Tagoler, castellan of the Castle of the Wode and candidate for becoming new general of Hara's forces.

There might be others, but those are the ones players are aware of...
