I absolutely loved Covington Cross and was so bummed it only lasted a single season.

Growing up playing DnD in the 80s and 90s we always played in the living room. DnD books were meant to roll dice on.

Wasted! We drove to Vegas last year and played 8 straight hours of DnD.

Exactly. Having to set up everything before you can play gets tedious to a kid.

Monocles create such an interesting feel to a character.

Conversations with the 9yo DM:

9yo DM: I really think theater of the mind is best.

Me: What are your reasons?

9yo DM: You can hang out and play on the couch without a table in the way or you can play in the car or on a hike. No need for maps and minis in every game.

Exactly!

The wyrmling said, β€œOoh! I should figure some of those out.”

Because those combos make encounters more fun?

I will cut my wife’s sandwiches but devour mine before the knife can even reach them.

That’s valid. But why cut your sandwich at all?

The diagonal cut point makes it easier to dip into soup and eat without making a mess.

Five year ago! It was a blast adventuring with Singe.

Natural Consequences to Actions in TTRPGs

I have a new post up onTTRPGkids about how to build satisfying consequences to player actions in TTRPGs while scaling to the needs of said players (i.e. you may need different strategies for adults vs. tweens vs. little kids lighting things on fire) πŸ”₯

My neighbor rehabilitates injured hawks and falcons and my 9 year old son loves to see them as they get healthy and return to nature.

Sounds like an excellent impulse purchase.

Definitely. That is the best way to spend a birthday.

I have never had the birthday song sung to me with quotes from LotR interspersed within until today…

9yo DM: 🎡Happy birthday to you… I will take it; I will take the ring to Mordor.

Me: πŸ˜€

9yo DM: 🎡Happy birthday dear Daddy… 30? 40? you cannot be 50?

Me: 🀣🀣🀣
