Welcome! This is a blog about roleplaying in general and 4E in particular (my system of choice at the moment).

Who is the mysterious DM I'm chasing? Me, I hope. Somewhere out there is the DM I want to be, the guy who effortlessly adjudicates rules at the table, constructs exciting campaigns for his players, and has endless, ever-running ideas about where the game should go next and how he's going to do it. He's out there somewhere. I know it. Sometimes I think I'm reading about that guy when I check out the Story Hours on ENWorld, or read some of the threads that pop up over there, or when I stumble over some random guy's campaign web site that just blows me clear away. That's the guy I'm chasing. I don't even think I've caught sight of his coat-tails yet, but I could've sworn he dropped a bunch of d6's one time...

Edit (26/01/09): Obviously this blog is now much less about d20 and more about 4E. The circle of life in action. It also includes the ongoing adventures of my own little 4E group as they wind their way through the campaign world of Cradle Plain in pursuit of dreams (and loot), and a selection of reviews, articles, thought-provoking treatises, genre-shattering essays, and general chit-chat that I hope you, the fellow gamer, might enjoy.

Edit (09/02/10): Hmm, it seems the edit is becoming a bit of an annual tradition! This blog has changed direction somewhat into, for the most part, a record of what my weekly 4E campaign is getting up to (still going strong after a year-and-a-half). Because I now play regularly, I don't have the excuse of "not playing often enough" to get me out of a bind when I make stupid mistakes behind the screen. You'll still find the odd non-journal post as and when something gets my attention, but for the moment I've resisted posting about the RPG subject-du-jour because frankly there are better places to argue about it than here. :)
