Better than epic!

Dungeons and Dragons

We left the cover of the forest after the river of goblins chasing Barry disappeared from sight. The village was strangely quiet after it emptied. Even the forest around the huts was completely silent. What life there was had retreated from the vicious goblins once they claimed this land as […]

Enter the Druid: Payback

August 23, 2015 in Enter the Druid / OSRIC / RPG / Tabletop tagged Dungeons & Dragons / Dungeons and Dragons / Enter the Druid / Janko / OSRIC / Pen and Paper / RPG / Tabletop by Rob Beach

Editor’s note: This post contains a pretty hefty spoiler for Enter the Druid. We purposefully have ETD running several weeks behind the actual gaming group’s adventure, so the contents of this Verb-age will reveal a pretty big plot point for a future ETD. If you’re on the edge of your […]

The Word of Greg

“Wake up!” urged Barry in a hushed voice. A small boot dug into my shoulder when I didn’t respond fast enough. “There are torches coming our way. I can hear voices.” Kaius shook Lluc and Greg awake. Max stretched his front paws out in front of him, arching his back. […]

Enter the Druid: I Hate Little Girls

Lluc spoke up as we left the clearing and druids behind us. “Kaius and I talked with some of the druids who remained behind after the rest of you went gallivanting off into the woods last night. They said they’ve had a few goblin incursions over the last few weeks.” […]

Enter the Druid: Max

August 6, 2015 in Enter the Druid / OSRIC / RPG / Tabletop tagged Dungeons & Dragons / Dungeons and Dragons / Enter the Druid / Janko / OSRIC / Pen and Paper / RPG / Tabletop by Rob Beach

I awoke the next day with a profound pain centered just above my eyes. I was in a small building made entirely of oak. A few beds laid in rows in the center of the floor and clay jars filled shelves along the walls. Light came in through the only […]

Enter the Druid: Hospitality

July 31, 2015 in Enter the Druid / OSRIC / RPG / Tabletop tagged Dungeons & Dragons / Dungeons and Dragons / Enter the Druid / Janko / OSRIC / Pen and Paper / RPG / Tabletop by Rob Beach

Stories always make heroes seem so well compensated. They get land or are granted titles. The only resident of the small village that seemed eager to thank us was the young girl Kaius had stepped in front of to shield her from the goblins. She had her arms firmly wrapped […]

Enter the Druid: The Grove

July 23, 2015 in Enter the Druid / OSRIC / RPG / Tabletop tagged Dungeons & Dragons / Dungeons and Dragons / Enter the Druid / Janko / OSRIC / Pen and Paper / RPG / Tabletop by Rob Beach

“Kiokri,” Greg called, pointing to a mark on his map, east-northeast of Troubeck. “Headmaster Fabijan told me that there is a druids’ grove here.” That was surprising, although when I thought about it later I realized it shouldn’t have been. This world was similar to mine in so many ways. […]

Enter the Druid: Little Green Men

July 16, 2015 in Enter the Druid / OSRIC / RPG / Tabletop tagged Dungeons & Dragons / Dungeons and Dragons / Enter the Druid / Janko / OSRIC / Pen and Paper / RPG / Tabletop by Rob Beach

Nostalgia is a funny thing. I’ve traveled a lot during my life and never had a real home, so I was surprised when the feeling started to creep up on me when we first caught sight of Troubeck. It was diminished somewhat when I saw the heads decorating pikes by […]

Enter the Druid: Good Food

Kaius knelt down next to Lluc, whispered a prayer to his god, then touched Lluc’s slumped body. A light glow settled over him, and he groaned as he rolled onto his back. He tried to sit up, but ultimately collapsed back down to the ground. His armor clanged against the […]

Enter the Druid: On the Mend

July 2, 2015 in Enter the Druid / OSRIC / RPG / Tabletop tagged Dungeons & Dragons / Dungeons and Dragons / Enter the Druid / Janko / OSRIC / Pen and Paper / RPG / Tabletop by Rob Beach

The hallway spilled out into a large antechamber. Greg’s torch made shadows dance across the rough stone walls. They teased my eyes and made me see things moving just out of the range of our light that weren’t really there. There were doors leading from the left and right side of […]
