Join us as we celebrate our shared game and tell a story together.
If you are a lonely, sleep-deprived knight of Kelemvor who has kept steadfast watch for three days, and then had a stirring evening of meeting helpful, mysterious strangers, kindly healing these same strangers’ wounds, and heroically smiting some pesky Undead, you will want to eat stew. If you are a mere mortal who is bundled... Continue Reading →
