Rediscovering My Roots & Latest Update The Nerathian History & The Nerath Timeline The current year for our campaign is set during the year 103AE. Inspired By Gary Gygax

Advanced Dungeons & Dragons has been a focal point in my TTRPG gaming for the last 40'ish years and it's been a fun ride. For the last couple of years I've been out of the game only recently returning. I thought of making a return to Advanced Dungeons & Dragons but this prospect really didn't excite me much, maybe I was just burned out on it after 40'ish years of playing/DMing games with it.

I decided to take a step back and look at my options and decided in the end that I would move to some form of OSR system other than Advanced Dungeons & Dragons but after doing some serious thinking, I decided to stay with Advanced Dungeons & Dragons as our core rules. I love the simplicity of the system plus I like how it is fully compatible with B/X, BECMI and even Advanced Dungeons & Dragons—which is good because it allows me to run basically any OSR systems modules.

I really am excited about returning home to Advanced Dungeons & Dragons. Most of my Dungeons & Dragons gaming has also revolved around the World of Greyhawk although I am a huge fan of the Dragonlance setting as well. I've been to many Dragon Con's and at several of them I had the pleasure of meeting Gary Gygax himself and three different times was a player in one of his games. It is safe to say Gary Gygax had a huge impact on me and my gaming.

I am also the proud owner of the original 1st edition Dungeon Master Guide, Players Handbook and the Greyhawk Adventures hardback books that were all signed by Gary Gygax himself - Gary is an inspiration to me. I've been out of the game for many years but have recently returned and have settled on a "modifed" OSE system which I absolutely love. It's a breath of fresh air from the WotC garbage.

Gary Gygax made such a huge impact on me that even today I am a classic D&D dungeon master and player. If I haven't made myself clear as to how I feel about this modern fantasy of the WotC 5th edition D&D then you haven't reading my posts lol. It all goes back to that old saying - "if it ain't broke, don't try to fix it".

We are using a slightly modified race & class system with our AD&D core rules. I considered using Old-School Essentials but the more I researched the more I fell "back" in love with AD&D. We will also have a few house rules added to our system of rules but not many. I think most of these house rules will be more about quality of life rules than anything. The plan is to run a long last campaign that takes multiple "years" in real life to complete, if the party survives lol. This campaign will be played online using Roll20 & Discord.

Each session will also be locally recorded and after a bit of editing be uploaded to our Youtube channel in a playlist. We may stream our games "at a later date" once we get more comfotable with online play. Stay tuned for more news & updates because as this campaign progresses the more content will be getting posted.

The Racism Behind WotC/Hasbro The Nerathian History & The Nerath Timeline The current year for our campaign is set during the year 103AE. Inspired By Gary Gygax

This guy touched on a lot of stuff he pulled from Twitter and one thing I want to make clear, all of these people I am about to highlight are affiliated with Hasbro/WotC in one form or another . . . some are editors, writers, executives and content creators. They publically say stuff that is pure racist and WotC/Hasbro lets them get away with it, and as a matter of fact Hasbro/WotC does its best to go along with these people and what they say. It's disgusting and embarrassing.

It's bad enough with how WotC/Hasbro tried to redo the OGL to screw everyone over, sure they backed down but only because the entire community rose up against them and forced them to back down. It's just sad how this game has went down the toilet. These are just a few of the tweets that were found on Twitter. Dominique Dickey posted a couple of tweets here and here. How much of a racist can someone be?

Then you have Sadie Lowrie who assisted as a writer for Call of the Netherdeep making tweets like this. I send her a tweet asking her about her tweet and this is the reply I got from her. Instead of explaining herself, she blocks me. Typical racist hiding from what she has done. The exact same thing happened with Sarah Madsen . . . when I sent her a tweet about these tweets that she made and I got another reply just like I got from Sadie Lowry.

Lets look at Makenzie De Armas with her tweet or how the one and only Christopher Perkins tweeted this and to think, it pretty much all started with this from Kyle Brinks. Now the latest news is WotC is saying they are removing the Half Elf and Half Orc races or half ANYTHING from D&D because it's racist. It's just gotten out of control. I have been playing Dungeons & Dragons since it was called Basic D&D, hell . . . even before Basic, back when it was called Chain Mail and I've never been this dusgusted with a game, it's people and it's company than I am right now.

Sure, myself and my group had originally planned to get into 5th edition D&D — until now. With that being sad, I want to make one thing perfectly clear, I'll never buy another product from WotC. You know, back when we played classic Dungeons & Dragons, we didn't have all this drama, it was all about the game and we had one community that stuck together. It's simply not like that anymore. This game is a mess. We are now 100% an Advanced Dungeons & Dragons group.
