Actual Play Curse of Strahd--D&D Encounters S22 S3










Curse of Strahd--D&D Encounters S22 S3

Melissa brought this amazing Unicorn Dice Bag which came with a noise maker



I brought a bunch of regular skittles.


There is a move for more healthy snacks at the table.


The game was good--mostly new players as we continued the Death House exploration.


There were a lot of crits & fumbles. I am still using the iCrit & iFumble charts.

 

I am using large dice so the table trusts I am not cheating.

I nailed some good rolls!



And one of the players scored critical GOLD with my old stand by dice!


A very fun time was had by all!



Palm Sunday Tea Time--Caramel Apple Black Tea


On Palm Sunday, Cody and I had a tea time. We made Friday Tea's Caramel Apple Black Tea:


The tea was rather old, but seemed to have held up well


The Tea brewed up well.


And poured very cleanly


The tea was very mellow and fruity and a nice refreshing pick me up to a late night D&D Preparation Session.


Cody really enjoyed drinking the tea--he did add a LOT of sugar to his tea.
