Last weekend my family and I played the first session of the Elves of Tejas. One thing I was impressed about on James Wyatt’s site was his description of the play session. I wondered how he remember everything that happen. Well he probably keeps notes. I have a bunch of stuff I write down during…

Another great article on DMing on Game Grene. This one on extra stuff Rouge does to make the game better and easier to play. I really like the articles by Rogue Githyanki.
