Enemy Within Chapter 2: Mary and Robert

Chapter 2

"Enemy Within" is campaign written for the Dark Fantasy role playing game Shadow of the Demon Lord by Robert j. Schwalb. My campaign is set in present day Washington D.C. and I have molded the core rules to make it work. You can find out more about the story, characters, and progress HERE

In between sessions, Monkeywrench and Billy Jack learned that the men they killed in the basement are part of a large group whose sole purpose is to open a portal to another “dimension” called The Pale or bring about the destruction of this one. Whichever comes first.

Monkeywrench honed his fighting skills. Billy Jack became imbued with magical ability and spent his downtime understanding more about his magical talent and the Shadowed World. They also  met and recruited a hipster faun barista, Eldric.

Enemy Within: Forethoughts

Here I am going to put my musings about this new endeavor of mine..  

The exact moment of when it started is unknown. Many believe he turned his attention to earth around the time of The Great War. Whether it was the massive death and destruction of WWI that invited him or he was the grand instigator of the war, no one knows. One thing is certain the Earth has been slowly decaying towards apocalypse ever since.

The Shadow

The Shadow is an unseen veil or cowl that blankets our planet to corrupt and destroy. However, living in the Shadow also grants protection. The Shadow construes our perception of really and prevents us from seeing what truly exists in our world. Beyond the Shadow, elves, orcs, dwarves and other ancestries live, breathe and interact alongside humans. Beyond the Shadow, magic is real and horrors unspeakable invade not only our nightmares.

A Night to Forget - A Shadow of the Demon Lord session

So it has bean a LONG time since my last post...

While I have gamed quite a lot over the last couple of years, I have not written about it.Jobs, family, kids, and ADD have really interfered with my ability to post. But anyway, here I am and here is  another post!

A Night to Forget

After running and playing Shadow of the Demon Lord by Robert J Schwalb for a while now I wanted to try something a bit different. I looked over the book, house ruled a few things, added some equipment, and changed the setting a bit. Then, me and three others sat down to make characters and test it out.

D&D with Kids! Tools of the Trade

Tonight's game was postponed due to scheduling conflicts and believe me my youngest (Stealthy age 6) said many time he couldn't wait to play, "Dungeons of Dragons." No, I don't correct him cause I think it's cute! Despite not being able to play, we did get a bunch of D&D hype going on this week.
