Tonight in #DragonTown #dnd - the party used enchanted pee-covered stones to lure corrupted giant beetles into a corral to save the sentient apples. This was after talking about seducing the bugs! No, there aren’t mechanics for any of that. But yes, it was damn fun!

Today in my #DragonTown #dnd game: the party avoided the TPK (and all fights) by convincing the kobolds to lead them through the cave to the lost dwarven kingdom!
@jpcoovert.bsky.social
Today in my #DragonTown #dnd game: the players ignored every hint available to them and are left standing at the door that holds back the evil smoke monster that can infect the entire cave system.
Next week on dnd: TPK?

I just added a new post to my #dnd Patreon. In it, all members (including free) get my list of 45 reasons why a PC might be going to #DragonTown to start the campaign. All of them connect the PCs to the adventure. Some might even be generic enough for use in any campaign.

Last night in my #DragonTown #dnd game: the players reenacted the Dread Pirate Robert’s holocaust cloak scene in an attempt to scare off some goatlins. It became Dread Pirate Goatbert, which of course became Gogurt, because, ya know…dnd and stuff.

In my #DragonTown #dnd game:
Me (as DM): the baker’s name is Dulper.
Party: Dopler?
Me: No, Dulper.
Party: Dopler, like the change in sound.
Me: Dulper.
Party: Dopler.
Me: DUL-PER.
Party: DOP-LER
Me: …
Party: …
Me: The baker’s name is Dopler.

In my #DragonTown #dnd game tonight: the characters spent the session battling mudmen in the pouring rain deep in the mountains before finding the secret entrance to a long lost dwarven stronghold. What lies on the other side of the door? We’ll have to wait until next time!
@jpcoovert.bsky.social
Last night in my #DragonTown #dnd game: the party spent the entire session trying to fool the goatlins with illusions of other goatlins! All we did for two hours was bleat and neigh.
@jpcoovert.bsky.social
In my #DragonTown #dnd campaign tonight: the party spent nearly the entire session trying to figure out how to cross a 15-ft gap in a broken stone bridge while a floating eyeball curiously watched them.
@jpcoovert.bsky.social
Last night in my new #DragonTown #dnd campaign: the group shot enchanted apples into the river to lure the bouncing blobs into the water to be dissolved! @jpcoovert.bsky.social
Tonight’s #DragonTown #dnd game: the players were nearly trampled by a herd of goatskins, insulted by ravenfolk, fooled by a ghostly elk, and dodged rocks thrown by other rocks!

In the Windsong Wood we saved a pack of wolves and and found a geyser spewing Darkness. A giant snail is trying to contain it with cleansing slime trails. Its shell decays when the geyser explodes dark ooze. Another day in @jpcoovert.bsky.social‘s #Dragontown.
This week's post is reviewing Dragontown and the Darkness below and discussing running for my kiddos: #ttrpg #osr #shadowdark #dragontown #gmadvice

#Dragontown landed on my doorstep today. Been running it with my teen group for a while. They’re gonna love the treasure cards. I love the screen! So sleek, low profile and useful info inside. Thank you @jpcoovert.bsky.social! We are having a blast. 🐉🏘️
#OSR #ItHasArrived #HappyGM
Last night in my #DragonTown #dnd campaign: the party convinced the Druid to stop putting the dragon to sleep, only to have the dragon completely eviscerate the Druid when he woke! Oops. @jpcoovert.bsky.social

Alice Cooper – Dragontown 🐉🕸️
Released #OnThisDay 24 years ago (September 18, 2001) 🎉
Dark, theatrical, and pure shock-rock fire from the master himself.

It’s been a rough couple weeks. But I did find a some respite in my #DragonTown campaign. Tonight a character ran in fear further down into the crypt, only to get surrounded by zombies that he doesn’t know about yet. I love how #dnd can provide a break from harsh realities!
@jpcoovert.bsky.social
Today in my #DragonTown #dnd game: the catapult failed so the party just fought the Alleycats anyway. Now they don’t know how to get over the castle walls to find the dragon hoard they believe is on the other side!
@jpcoovert.bsky.social
Tonight in my #DragonTown #dnd session: the party betrayed the thieves they were working with by sabotaging the catapult…before they got into the castle. Now they don’t have an easy way to the treasure!

Table set with 3 room dungeon built with Jenga blocks. Scattered figures, coins and a yellow d20.
The table is set. Today, PCs face the infected cleric in the basement of the Sub Rosa. I’m looking forward to seeing what they do!
#DragonTown #ShadowDark #N1 #HungryHollow #osr
Tonight in my #dnd game: the party freed battled a pool of mud in order to free a humanoid pig from the corruption of the Darkness while also fighting a Void Spawn in complete darkness. Nice to be back after short break!
We are running #DragonTown from

Jenga blocks outline the basement of the Sub Rosa Inn. Party location is marked with a red counting bear.
Top view of have table. Messy. Dice, character sheets, pens, drinks and snacks.
Today’s #DragonTown the party entered the abandoned Sub Rosa inn. Inside, surfaces are covered in sticky residue. The basement stinks of putrid fruit. Valoran Cleric Boldbeacon greets them in the chamber. “The child will be beautiful. Our gift from God.”

Too many spinning plates!

I must be gearing up for summer!

#DragonTown A failed stake out of the Cidery. Ivy fell climbing down from the roof.
That night, they follow Arbie. He joins more infecteds, they take their apples to the defunct Sub Rosa Inn.
The Sub Rosa will reopen for Spring Festival visitors.
Miranda kidnapped!
#osr #report #ShadowDark
Tonight’s #DragonTown #dnd session included the party spending a ridiculous amount of time discussing if they should catch a giant turkey so that their goatlin companion can ride on it while carrying their rescued skunk!
If only I could draw that one.

Tabletop with assorted materials for designing a TTRPG adventure. In view there’s home printed booklet titled Echelon Forest. The booklet sits atop a large open notebook, a book open to a page titled “The Corrupted Pig,” beneath it an open book with forest related tables, at the top of the image a book lies open to entries titled Giant Snake, Tiger and Treant.
Why stick to a module? I want to play and learn from other’s creative genius. Infusing #DragonTown with those ideas gives me the space to do that. Windsong Wood is getting an Echelon overhaul and the town is picking up a Liminal Horror vibe.

A picture of a farm created using DungeonDraft. It shows a red barn in the upper left corner, one level of the farmhouse in the upper right corner and a corral with a small building in the lower right corner. There are cart tracks in the lower left that go off map.
Thanks for hosting. I’ve been running a 5e #dnd version of #DragonTown by @jpcoovert.bsky.social and have been posting the resources I create. Here’s a map (and some stat blocks) for an early adventure. Could also be used for a stand-alone one shot potentially.

Today in library #dnd: the group faced off against catfolk rogues that nearly killed both parties before negotiating a deal to steal from the dragon!
#DragonTown by @jpcoovert.bsky.social continues to rock!
Thanks for the space. I’m just getting started but I’ve been so thankful for all the creators that have helped me in my #dnd DM journey that I want to do my part. I am sharing resources I create as I run #DragonTown by @jpcoovert.bsky.social and Ink by @snowbrightstudio.bsky.social
Left hand holding a book open. Left page odd titled Trigona God Queen of the Flesh … the last word is illegible. The right page is titled Immature God Queen. Text in middle is blurred.
Finally reading The Parthenogenesis of Hungry Hollow for #LiminalHorror. It’s creepy. My #DragonTown crew will find strangeness in their new home. Will Trigona rise? Will it bring The Darkness Below with it? Will I succeed at blending the two?
