		<description><![CDATA[Continuing on from my previous post, I wanted to continue focusing on several great tools that I&#8217;ve come across that can help both Dungeon Masters and Players around the gaming table. As I stated in my previous post, the iPad is certainly a wonderful to have around the gaming table. There have been a couple of great apps and also web services that I&#8217;ve been using to get the most around my gaming table. This week&#8217;s article is going to ...]]></description>

Whether it be an iPad or one of the various Android flavors of tablets, these great little devices have certainly provided those of us that game with an arsenal of tools to bring to the gaming table. I have recently acquired an iPad and while the novelty of the device was present early on, I quickly got down to business with the device and found uses for the device ...]]></description>

On the one hand, I&#8217;ve realized that I am stringing out this plot more than I should have; and then considering some of the plot hooks I&#8217;ve realized I&#8217;m not doing enough to move the plot forward.<br />

		<description><![CDATA[In the evolution of my Eberron game, I&#8217;ve found a practical use for Companion Characters as outlined in the DMG2.  My current group numbers two steadfast players and their combination of characters.  Currently they are playing two and three Player Characters each.  This gets a bit cumbersome, both in roleplaying and combat.  I am working on a couple of interesting and enticing Companion Characters to help &#8220;level&#8221; the playing field.  While I know that out of the box, this isn&#8217;t ...]]></description>

This is the High Wizard&#8217;s Tower and Dungeon that I&#8217;m using in my current game session.  The Dungeon has been set upon by an Aurum Concordian that is in search of the second piece of the Cauldron of Ongurr.  The Concordian has arrived before the party and has begun his search for the second piece.  While searching he has sent out his security forces to secure the lower levels of the High Wizard&#8217;s Tower.<br />

		<description><![CDATA[While going through the adventures for the Chaos Star series you&#8217;ll see me fall back on these six guidelines for my adaption of the adventure:<br />
1. Level up the encounters: Add between +3 or +8 levels to each encounter. Challenge for a 5th level party.<br />
2. Modify the monsters to keep in the theme of &#8220;Cthulhu&#8221;: Aberrations with psychic powers or similar.<br />
3. Level up the treasure parcels: 5th level Parcels less the ones already given out. Select items useful ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Chaos Scar in Eberron<br />
Backstory to My Home Game<br />
I recently was reviewing the D&#38;D Insider site and flipping through the available content in Dungeon magazine.  I am fishing around for some new and interesting pieces to add to my current Eberron campaign.  To offer some background on my current game, the party is searching for a mythic artifact known as the &#8220;Cauldron of Ongurr&#8221;.  This artifact was used during the Age of Monsters to fortify a bridge between Eberron ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Just ran my most current installment of the &#8220;Shadows Over Khorvaire&#8221;, and being hard pressed for time, I grabbed a complete &#8220;encounter&#8221; from the recently published &#8220;Dungeon Delve&#8221; as a filler for my usually planned out game encounters.  I have to say, I was a bit hesitant at first, but the players genuinely enjoyed the encounters and the feel of the encounters.<br />
The format for each chapter in the book consists of a series of encounters for a given level. ...]]></description>
