| + | **DM's Notes:** I desperately need to remember to get a small clock that I can see while I'm behind my DM screen. There's a giant, three foot across clock right behind my seat, but I can't see it to pay attention to it. Since we game on Thursday nights and we all work the next morning, we have to wrap things up at a reasonable time. Ross and Paul wanted to keep playing from last session, but without Sam we didn't have the right team members. Keeping things episodic will have to be enforced for awhile, I think, until they've got the characters they want and a stable group setting. With Sam not there, Sommer brought in a dwarven rune priest. | ||
