A chill dude who has enjoyed D&D for the past 20 years, video games such as FFXIV, map making, and wants to get into voice acting! Unsure of how often I will post maps for the sake of not spoiling my D&D group! DMs welcome
So, #gamemasters hear me out...

Dungeon time! The party's first trip into the Spires has been met with both adversity and tragedy. With the fall of another party member, the Warlock pleaded with their patron for their revival at a steep cost (-2 to two attr). Have you ever made a different price for life?

Adventures through Southmarch! The technologically advanced (relatively) Empire, that may hold secrets for the party. They've also found a new ally among their number. Now, time for a foray into one of the sacred Spires of Tenecoria.

It's always a great time when something you planned to be a small Nat 1 bit turns into 2.5 days of debilitating illness for one of your players' characters. On the flip side, it filled out details for an otherwise quiet voyage with an illness and almost no way to escape it!

Another session and the party has a new friend. But, with the party venturing to new lands in search of new aid. Now I get to enjoy the creation of new maps. I can feel that I am getting better at it. Is this... what leveling up feels like?!?

It has happened. Party faced their first death when investigating a location, and a few questionable choices, the rogue is no more. This brings to question: How do you handle death in your games? Do you have revival services, or are they a measure of how much was risked?

DMs of Bluesky. Have any of you experienced consistently high rolls against players? While I hide my dice, I try to stay true to them. My last session was 'bad'; I had to reduce several crits to normal hits because who crits a player six times?

Another venture through the Fog covered Port Gjallyn! With a very close encounter with a Grell, and another with some Shadows, the party draws nearer upon rescuing the survivors nearby. This town block was a more fun map to make, with various dynamics!

Another close encounter! Dropped one player with a crit from a Shadow, but thankfully the healer was next! On a related note, I love playing with LoS and choke points. A good dynamic in the field always makes combat interesting. What's your favourite battlefield element?

Can't have a good extraction without an encounter scaled up above the player's level! Loved giving my group a challenge, and I am surprised they managed to save all but one civilian. A few close calls though. By the time they got to safety for a LR, no one had spell slots!

Idea:
Inspiration is lame and everyone forgets it. Instead, when a character is having a heroic / major plot moment, I give special benefits throughout the fight. A regen, an extra attack, recharging spell slots, etc. Perfect for a 'last stand' or such.

The party has reached Port Gjallyn! After a meet with an old face in Beacon point, they proceeded to battle their way through the fog to rescue a holdout group. Now, with paths ahead to find survivors and answers, we leave off planning to evacuate those we can, first.

No session this week, but here's their destination! Port Gjallyn in the Northern Banner. The primary trade port for the Halfling and Dwarven kingdoms. However, the North Banner was the first to fall to the nightmarish fog. Who knows if there survivors remaining?

As a DM, I love giving my players the luxury of choice in where they go with their adventures. What gets me is that this hinders me in predicting where I need to make maps!
What about you all? Also, would you prefer to see more of my battle maps, or regional maps?

First combat of the new story, and we start off with me slapping someone with a crit. Combat on ships is fun when you get to play with lines of sight, and cramped combat areas. The team investigates a ship which had fallen to the fog, only to find nightmare creatures aboard.

A new story begins in Tenecoria.
Fog has encompassed the land, changing all that live within into nightmarish monsters. Setting out to save any survivors they can, will the party solve the mysteries of what caused such a calamity? Can they survive the Fog?

The Southernmost port in Ceiten, Fool's Landing is the largest city in the kingdom. Kept in line by the 'Regulatory Guild', to avoid prices too low for competition, or too high for purchase.

So, following an IC bad day where folks couldn't roll above a 10, the party has decided to leave the king for dead in order to protect the princess. Now, they are deliberating inciting civil war, assassination, or evacuating the princess.

The party learned Murphy's Law today.
Set out at first light to try and infiltrate a walled compound. Spotted immediately. Ambushed by the tailing patrol during retreat. So many misses. A wildfire spirit's shot crit fails, hits ally.
