Getting Into D&D 5e Adventures
Dragon of Icespire Peak: Creating the Tower of Storms
So, it’s been a while since I posted about the D&D campaign I’ve been running. I’ve had some ups and downs since my last post, but I’ve been happy to get back into it.
I started like I normally do when prepping for a game by creating the maps. I drew out the island and first floor of the lighthouse.
I decided that I’d create some additional walls to give the maps a 3D look. I figured my son and his friend would like that.
I ended up priming some cardboard from food boxes brown on one side and taping them together for the second floor. I started by drawing out the map, gluing it down, and then cutting out the shape of the floor.
I took a break between finishing this part of the project and playing the game.
I had the opportunity to visit family in Ohio. We always stop in Point Pleasant, WV to visit the Mothman, walk around the museum, and stretch our legs. During our stay in Ohio we witnessed the eclipse. I can’t describe how awesome that experience was for me and my family. One part of the eclipse that amazed me was that no matter the direction you looked it appeared like dusk.
Cryptids gone wildI ended up suffering an injury that set me back physically and mentally after the trip. Thankfully my wife helped pull me out of this mental block by scheduling the D&D game. That helped motivate me to do something fun. I’ll share more about the game in the next post.
