		<title>The iPad and Gaming Conventions</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am getting ready to attend my first gaming convention in quite some time this weekend. Megacon is held annually in Orlando, and it is my first time attending, as well as my first convention with my iPad. While I am not an &#8220;avid&#8221; gamer, I do enjoy role-playing in general. This convention, I have signed up for three separate games and am looking forward to each of them. I have signed up for two indie games, and a game ...]]></description>

		<title>My Digital Assistant &#8211; iPlay4e</title>
		<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>

		<title>2011 and the Maiden&#8217;s Head</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As the year rolls around to 2011, I am here and looking at the quaint little stateof my blog. It has beena pretty decent year and the blog has had a fairly low key number of visitors in year two. The blog has had a great influx of visitors when I post on topics related to what is relevant over at several sites that I follow, key among them the Wizards and Gnome Stew sites. I have branched out a ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So was Santa kind this winter and brought you a tablet? 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>

		<title>Advancement</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Having just had my players achieve 5th level, I am re-examining their current series of adventures and where I am taking them with the plot that I&#8217;ve originally developed.  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 />
Having recently picked up the &#8220;Dungeon Master&#8217;s Guide 2&#8243; and reading through some of the artifacts presented, I realized ...]]></description>

		<title>The Rise of the Entourage, or How to use Companion Characters</title>
		<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>

		<title>How the West Was Won</title>
		<description><![CDATA[<br />
 <br />
Originally uploaded by The Library of Congress<br />
<br />
In the next harrowing chapters, I plan on bringing the party a bit closer to their foe. In order to this, I&#8217;m planning on placing them on a lightning rail (read &#8220;train&#8221; for those not savvy on the Eberron setting) with the villain. This will work to give the game a sort of western / pulp fiction sort of feel. I&#8217;m planning on incorporating a couple of key encounters ...]]></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 />

		<title>The Abandoned Village</title>
		<description><![CDATA[<br />
<br />
by zencorners<br />
<br />
During a journey across the Eldeen, the party encounters what looks like an abandoned village.  Recently, the village has seen a number of goblins take up residence as a forward base for the upcoming invasion to the south.  The goblins have a regular patrol around their common area and look to scare, rather than kill any wayward travelers who happen by.  The patrol will usually consist of a goblin delver and two gnoll minions.  If ...]]></description>
