Well, four times running Slaves Pits of Drazul, and everytime its been well received. Its an incredibly well done module.

Im in Batavia NY (wonderful little town) for work. Bored out of my mind, along with fellow peers, we talked of hobbies and i brought up Dungeon World and “You guys should check out The Gauntlet on G+”. Whats that, they asked. Lucky for me i had my pack in the car and back at the hotel i introduced them to tabletopRPG. They never played one before and were strictly videogamers. Well, not after this night.

We started with drinks, like all gatherings do, celebrating the election. i explained what the expectaions of the game were like “using Imagination”, “remember the movie Lord of the Rings” and “its like Skyrim”. They agreed and quickly became excited. We created characters, bonds and laughed a bunch. Then I read the firat page of the module and their eyes widened. Its satisfying when you see your players engaged so strongly.

Asking them the standard What do you do? frequently, i was able to expand their video game mentality. Seeing their imagination juices pumping and smiles from ear to ear was refreshing after a long work day.

The night ended in one death and an early survived Lastbreath. All in all it was a good night and i recieved many thanks. The next day however was even better. For when i walked into the meeting room, eyes turned to me with smiles and reminiscing of the night before.

Success!
