D&D

 I'm currently running two D&D campaigns, and really should be doing some prep instead of writing blog posts. 

My weekly game has been running for, um, some years now, and is done over Discord as that makes it far easier to get everyone together at a regular time each week. Set on Wildemount, the party is currently level 9 and consists of a human fighter dual-wielding rapiers, a dragonborn barbarian who is ex city-guard, an air genasi bard with a pet owlbear cublet, a very innocent elf life cleric and a gnome druid who is very fond of rum. They have previously "acquired" two ships, been recruited by the Marquis of Port Damali as special ops, found and destroyed an Arm of the Betrayers, befriended two dragons and a mind-flayer, and bought into a multi-level marketing scheme selling cosmetics and scents. They're currently on their way to meet up with a previous member of the party, Void, who has been investigating a devil-worshipping cult. I'm sure that will be pretty straight-forward and they can all just go have a beer together. 

My monthly game with work colleagues is in person and started as a one-shot nearly two years ago now, with all new players. I adapted the absolute classic A Wild Sheep Chase for lower level, and they were hooked. Currently consisting of two human fighters, one an eldritch knight noble and the other the best damn chef in the world (with a bow), a half-elf druid, an elf wizard and a recently joined tabaxi rogue, The Animal Exploders have also explored the Feywild, attempted a jailbreak, accidentally killed a wizard, adragon and a member of the Harpers, double-crossed a criminal gang and are recently returned from cleansing a goblin shrine. I need to think up something for them to do next, although I'm sure if I left the to it they'd find some trouble to get into.

I'm not actually sure which of the two groups is more chaotic. I love them both, and DMing for either is always a highlight of my week. Now I really must go do some prep.
