Jeff<p>Tomorrow, we're starting module 5 of 6 of my <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Pathfinder" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Pathfinder</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/RiseOfTheRunelords" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RiseOfTheRunelords</span></a> campaign. I never imagined I'd get this far through it when we started. </p><p>It's got me thinking about my gaming white whales. </p><p>I'd love to get to play <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/VampireTheMasquerade" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VampireTheMasquerade</span></a> again at some point, but more likely, I'll be running <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/VampireTheRequiem" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VampireTheRequiem</span></a> </p><p>I'd love to go back and run some <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/AdvancedDungeonsAndDragons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AdvancedDungeonsAndDragons</span></a> modules like the <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Dragonlance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Dragonlance</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/WarOfTheLance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WarOfTheLance</span></a> or the original <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Ravenloft" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Ravenloft</span></a> or things like that using <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/ADD2e" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ADD2e</span></a> or <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/CastlesAndCrusades" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CastlesAndCrusades</span></a>. </p><p><a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/TTRPG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TTRPG</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/GMLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GMLife</span></a></p>
Jeff<p>Do you have a favorite campaign that you played in or ran for players?</p><p>Favorite campaign I played in was the <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Dragonlance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Dragonlance</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/WarOfTheLance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WarOfTheLance</span></a> 3.5 <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/DnD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DnD</span></a> campaign we played a few years back. We had some amazing characters fighting against a tide of evil.</p><p>For campaigns I've run, I can't decide between the two I'm currently working on.</p><p>The <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Pathfinder" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Pathfinder</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/RiseOfTheRunelords" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RiseOfTheRunelords</span></a> campaign I'm running is a Christmas gift for my wife from a few years back. I've got <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/ADHD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ADHD</span></a> and I'm super proud of myself for making it half way through a 400+ campaign book.

I've got a crew of absolutely awesome players and I feel fortunate that my sessions have risen to their levels. The stories have had some twists that the players didn't see coming and it's all mine. This isn't a published campaign but I've been running for... maybe a year or so now, with some breaks here and there. I'm on hiatus at the moment but I've been plotting the next trade/campaign.</p><p><a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/TTRPG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TTRPG</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/TTRPGQuestionOfTheDay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TTRPGQuestionOfTheDay</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/GMLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GMLife</span></a></p>

It's also based on <a href="https://c.im/tags/ForgottenRealms" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ForgottenRealms</span></a>.</p><p>If they can do this, I'm sure they can for <a href="https://c.im/tags/DragonLance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DragonLance</span></a> as well. So, let's have a <a href="https://c.im/tags/WarOfTheLance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WarOfTheLance</span></a> era adaptation!</p><p><a href="https://c.im/tags/movies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>movies</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/DnD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DnD</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/DungeonsAndDragons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DungeonsAndDragons</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/adaptation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>adaptation</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/LiveAction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LiveAction</span></a> </p><p><span class="h-card"><a href="https://chirp.social/@movies" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>movies@chirp.social</span></a></span> <span class="h-card"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/movies" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>movies@a.gup.pe</span></a></span></p>
Yohan Yukiya Sese Cuneta 사요한🦣<p>LOL. That was fun. I decided to give <a href="https://c.im/tags/ChatGPT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ChatGPT</span></a> a try in <a href="https://c.im/tags/DnD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DnD</span></a>.</p><p>I set the world in <a href="https://c.im/tags/DragonLance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DragonLance</span></a> in the time of the <a href="https://c.im/tags/WarOfTheLance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WarOfTheLance</span></a>. The <a href="https://c.im/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AI</span></a> asked me where my character should start, of the options provided, I chose Solace. My character met the Companions, joined their quests.</p><p>At first, the quests were similar to the original stories, but as I started to take action (learning how to prompt ChatGPT better in this experiment), the stories started to diverge.</p><p>My character got married to a prince of a coastal kingdom in the Northern coast of Ansalon. A kingdom with a strong navy, and bustling port where ships from Taladas visit and trade.</p><p>We, together with the Companions, defeated the Dark Queen <a href="https://c.im/tags/Takhisis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Takhisis</span></a>. And peace settled on the world of <a href="https://c.im/tags/Krynn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Krynn</span></a>.</p><p>Later, a new threat arosed. A long slumbering dragon, called the “Dark Lady” (the AI needs improvement in names) woke up.</p><p>At the same time, reports from Taladas came in that a powerful mage is wreaking havoc in the continent and is preparing to stake a claim in Ansalon.</p><p>The Companions were called, who are at this time, Heroes of the Lance. The other kingdoms in Ansalon were also invited to a meeting in our kingdom.</p><p>The Dark Lady was defeated, or at least her armies and brood. She escaped to <a href="https://c.im/tags/Taladas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Taladas</span></a>. At the same time, there is a growing set of evidences of the connection of the mage and the Dark Lady dragon.</p><p>Then the gully dwarves declared war on Thorbardin. (Weird, but hey…)</p><p>This is where it got interesting, very interesting.</p><p>Portals to other planes of existence suddenly opened up all over Krynn. Eventually all were closed, but six remained. Somehow, the missing Dark Lady and that myssterious Mage from Taladas were to blame.</p><p>Then Drizzt came to our kingdom. One of the portals lead to <a href="https://c.im/tags/Faerun" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Faerun</span></a>!</p><p>The Ansalon council decided to ssend a delegation. My character, the spouse, diplomats, and armies (some are Solamnic Knights). And we're in Faerun!</p><p>They found an orb which was powering the portals. Something happened and it broke, which closed the portals.</p><p>Any attempts by the best of Faerun in opening a portal back to Krynn failed. The Krynn delegation got stuck in Faerun.</p><p>So, we decided to settle in and founded a new kingdom.</p><p>The end. LOL.</p>
