On my health...and other stuff

Well, my pulmo wants me to go back to the ER. I've been putting it off for a few days so the world doesn't fall down while my back is turned, but that's what's been going on. I'm seriously bad off right now, trying to make it through.

Well wishes, hopes, prayers and effective miracle cures are all appreciated.

About the UAD&D blog

On the 15th of November, on the third day of a cluster headache episode and while doped to the gills on a new migraine/cluster drug that doesn't work, I decided to write a post to my normal blog giving my players some information for the forthcoming game. At that point I realized that my normal blog, dedicated to my religious and political views, was rapidly becoming a storehouse of information for my players, probably alienating half of my two audiences.
So I decided to go and turn it into a sort of half-blog, so that my gamers don't have to read about stuff they don't give a flying fart about, and vice versa with my other readers. And so, to that end, I present the UAD&D blog.

Here's the big two:
What are you afraid of? What terrifies you the most, and why?

What do you want in life? How are you going to get it?

Character Birthday and Day of the month, campaign II

The starting date of your campaign was the 21st of Tenthmonth, of the year 902 in the Standard Calendar. If your character has siblings, roll a d30 (discard 29 and 30) and a d12 to determine day and month. If you want to be ultra accurate, this is accomplished with d30s (or d28s):
1-2: Firstmonth
3-4: Secondmonth
5-6: Thirdmonth
7-8: Fourthmonth
9-10: Fifthmonth
11-12: Sixthmonth
13-14: Seventhmonth
15-16: Eighthmonth
17-18: Ninthmonth
19-20: Tenthmonth
21-22: Eleventhmonth (or "Venthmonth")
23-24: Twelfthmonth
25-26: Thirteenthmonth (Or "Teethmonth")
27: Born during Festival
28 or higher: Discard.

I do not guarantee that I gave the right date at the start of last session. I will tell you that you are now on the 22nd. I am working on a handout with the months which gives more detail.

STOP!

Happy Halloween from Puck

It's not uncommon to kick Puck off of the birdcage. It is unusual for her to enlist backup.
