Experience the World

My 1st Wildlands one-shot is published! Check Out Mystery of Thorngage Manor

What does it mean to experience the world? Well, you can read the flash fiction, short stories, and poetry on this web site and you could join me for a virtual ttrpg (tabletop role-playing game) session! You can subscribe to my Patreon to play in an ongoing Anhult Wildlands 5e campaign, details in the sidebar.

Or instead of a monthly fee, as professional Game Master, I have games running almost every week. You can purchase a ticket for one of the virtual games below. There are a variety of Dungeons and Dragons games available.

How Do I Play Virtually?

For my patreon campaign or private games, we'll create a character, equip a few tools on your computer including Discord and Roll20. Don't worry, it's a free action for both. Next, you'll join the party for a virtual session zero. Then, we'll run the adventure and have an awesome shared storytelling experience.

The Virtual Play D&D Weekends are Adventurers League organized play events through Preferred Organizer Baldman Games. The process getting set up for those events is similar to my custom ttrpg games. We'll equip a few tools on your computer, Discord and Roll20. We'll met some new friends then get to play Adventurers League and other official storylines!

Play Some Games

Anhult Patreon Campaign

The path is long and dark forces will reach out to challenge you but heroes are needed. I will be your guide (and Game Master), walk with me on a journey through the Anhult Wildlands. I have walked out of the forest and into the sun-soaked fields around Pale Gear. I climbed the Anhult Rise along the Long Road North. I soared in the air over the rolling fields around Etonia. My ears heard the calls of crews navigating the Bay of Claws. Champions will find an inviting community, a place worth the fight to protect. Will you answer the call?

To Heed my Words:
[ ] Navigate to my Patreon Page
[ ] Join at the "Ardelis' Arrows" Tier
[ ] Support my writing while you play!

We will play virtually once a month in the Anhult Wildlands. Delve into the story, explore a growing world, and fight for a worthy cause. New players or experienced players are welcome at an inclusive table with plenty of roleplaying, a wilderness to explore, and challenging encounters.

About My Adventures

Mystery at Thorngage Manor

Few have dared to venture close to the old settlement. That's due to the rumors. Rumors that something watches you as you walk around the central path between the buildings. Stories are told by parents that children disappear who venture through the woods and go too close to Thorngage Manor.

A few adventurers have declared they were heading to get the treasures but have not been heard from since they embarked on their mission. Perhaps they found the treasure and headed off to their retirement in some Southern city...or perhaps not.

Race to the Ruins

Ruins and Debris by iStockPhoto.com\Denise Hasse

As the Innkeeper returned from the second floor and greatted another group that entered the Inn. Vlad watched from the common room. He thought to himself, "Blast, It's Bartholomew and three others from Coral Gate. Recovery of artifacts from the ruins just got more complicated. I'm going to need some help." He considered his options while sitting by the fireplace in the common room of the Red Lion Inn

Vlad approached your table with a proposition, "A healthy hike through the forest and an afternoon studying old buildings. A little digging. That is all I need. I pay well."

Save the Goblins

As Winter turned to Spring, the Goblin Tribe in the hills started to harass travelers and encroach upon the villages scattered through the forest. Skirmishes between settlers and bands of 4-6 goblins became common. A bounty for Goblin ears was set by the Etonia guard.

The city was preparing to send an expeditionary force. Shortly after the spring cross-quarter, the attacks stopped. No goblins were seen in the forest at all.

Most people in the forest felt this was a blessing. The new mayor of Monsilt believed it was an ominous sign. Her concerns were verified when two goblins showed up in town asking for assistance.
