After watching @masteringdnd.bsky.social this week I've been re-reading Light of Xyraxis and *really* wanting to run it now. Just gotta get all the monsters built in Foundry first. Time for some schlockey wildspace fun!

I'm not crying, you're crying! 🥺😭#Daybreak #NewDay #AEW

Welp, that's Dungeons of Drakkenheim AP finished. What a great show, wonderful characters and a brilliant journey! #dnd5e #drakkenheim #AllHailBruce

@katvalkyrie.bsky.social Hey, quick question about your Call of the Netherdeep maps: How did you setup the Netherdeep maps? I've imported each map into Foundry w/ walls but they're all individual scenes - is there a better way?

About to treat myself to a couple of new t-shirts via @teepublic.bsky.social only to discover the ones I've chosen can't be printed/shipping from the UK for some odd reason. Naturally this sent the postage skyrocketing. Hard pass sadly.

Session 1 of Call of the Netherdeep in the books and the players are all extremely intrigued/excited to learn more! Maybe I'm ok at this DM'ing thing after all.

Had a play around with the Foundry Dragonbane module tonight with a few others. Slightly confusing layout and character creation is a bit of a chore but it looks good! Now I just need to learn how to play/run it.

Gearing up to run Call of the Netherdeep for the second time. Excited to apply what I learned from the first pass and improve the adventure for my players!

Got something fun in the post. Let's see if I can learn a new system.

Slow, slow embroidery process on the Lady of Pain. I think I've redone all the blades at least once at this point now 😅

Welp, seems like the doctors don't care about the myriad of other symptoms and issues plauging me and still just point out that I'm fat. No further help is being offered. Actually in tears here feelign completely unsure what to do next. *void scream*

Draft letter citing a complaint written, first draft was rather sarcastic though so had to edit it. Someone said I can't sign off with the line: 'Hopefully this letter finds you before I do'

I'll be the first to admit my weight (and by extension BMI) is an issue but that doesn't explain energy crashes, slurred speech and never ending fatigue. Then again I'm not a trained clinician so I don't know how my body works.

Got an email/letter from my GP. First contact I've had with them since the end of January discussing a blood test. Decided that all my issues are likely because my BMI is too high and my CPAP machine is set incorrectly. Yeah I know what GP stands for - Gaslight Patients.

Thinking about ideas for a longer Storm King's Thunder campaign and I simply can't settle on a BBEG to work things around. Lots of options though.

I have this thing and I never use it. Then again I don't like just talking about how miserable I am due to being sick. He says whilst vaguely talking about how sick he is 😆

After almost 4 years of feeling utterly awful I finally know what's currently wrong with me and yeah you guessed it - the GP won't help beyond 'lose some weight and eat these anti-depressants!'. One track mind that lot. Even the results say refer to Endocrinology and they haven't even done that!

I did it! I finished Call of the Netherdeep in exactly 1 year! That was a fun campaign to run and I learned a lot about DM'ing. Had a great time and a great bunch of players too! :)

I think I did it! A surprise BBEG encounter had me on the back foot slightly but bar a session or two of wrap up in about to finish my first hardback campaign of D&D 😃

Down to just running 2 games of D&D 5th and both of those are coming to a close soon as well. Perhaps time to start planning for next year? 🤔

My players drew on the moon. No notes.

@katvalkyrie.bsky.social Just thought I'd give you a shout out and some props for all the Call of the Netherdeep maps that have saved my bacon more than once in the last few weeks! Amazing work keeps wowing my players! Last few sessions now and looking forward to the BBEG!

Last day of playing in a D&D campaign tonight. A mixture of health issues and a dislike of the DM'ing style means I'm not having fun anymore. My exit plan is arranged.

Back to having no energy once again and no idea what's happening to me. Can the GP help? <J Jonah Jameson laughing gif goes here> :(

Go volunteer - a really well run convention!

Another D&D game cancelled for next week. Considering dropping the game but unsure how without causing problems.

Appointment was fine, postive even. Returned home to uncertainty and chaos, now nervously awaiting a phonecall.

Up early for a medical appointment and I don't like it :(

Back to back days of successful DM'ing. A level 3 party are convinced they can take on a Red Wizard whilst my Call of the Netherdeep group are being hunted by sharks 😎

Did a thing that I hope is right. It's making me feel bad though. I should have bought some chocolate before doing that.

142 hours later and I've finished Baldur's Gate 3. That was fun!

Hmmm, I've managed to collapse the Bluesky interface down to just icons on my PC and I don't like it or know how to undo it 😂

Ahh yes. Exhausted but can't sleep, only feel like I'm resting. Exceedingly long nights of just lying in bed because it's socially acceptable to do so 😕 I am getting some sleep so not full on insomnia. Yet.

Having a rotten few days and now in a disagreement with my Wednesday D&D game's DM about cancelled sessions. Wonderful start to the week :/

New D&D players had their second session and tackled Cragmaw Hideout. They had far too much fun. I think they plan to kidnap the goblin. I made him too loveable.

Woken up in a troubling mood which is now compounded with other physical symptoms of a possible infection returning. I just want to be *normal* again. Make it stop.

Potential trouble brewing in my D&D game. Concerned. I will finish a hardback campaign if it kills me.

Ran a 5e game for newbies tonight. Much fun for all involved and I think I just hooked 6 more people into TTRPG's 😃

I think I have an idea what to use this for now. Watch this space.

Nearly bit on an online argument. Realised it's completely pointless and moved on. I can use that energy better elsewhere.

Offer to run a beginners D&D game thinking I might get one or two people interested. Already at 10 and it doesn't seem to be slowing down. I've had worse problems.

I supposed I should really use this thing now I have access to it. No idea what for mind as I tend to sit and watch rather than take part in communities.
