Since you all helped me raise such a lot for Extra Life, here is a third installment of “Playing a Dragonborn in the Realms.” This one focuses mostly on sex, marriage, and children–topics that might seem out of place in a game, but which can shape a dragonborn character’s life in profound ways. Incidentally, this […]
Thank you all so much for helping me raise over $1000 for Extra Life. As a thank you for helping me reach that $750 threshold, here’s a token of my thanks: the early release of an expanded Draconic Primer! This one is a lot bigger than the first. I meant to write it solely as […]
I don’t like hospitals. Let me rephrase: Hospitals are great. But oh my god, I don’t want to be in them–hospitals stress me out, big time.

I promised last week that if we raised $150 by the end of the day, I would tell a Tiny Mr. I story. (After discussion with the Hubs, we’ve agreed we shouldn’t post the video of this event, since Tiny Mr. I is in his underpants and even we have limits as to how far […]

Good morning, readers! One of the problems with having a blog aversion is that when it clears I have SO MUCH TO TELL YOU! I’ve literally started writing three blog posts this morning! But this one seems the most critical (and technically it’s two, so bear with me). First, as of August 4th, Fire in the […]
Hello, readers! I’ve had a follow-up question to my earlier post about dragonborn from Micha. Do you have more of these? I’m happy to answer them as time allows. Like I said before: this stuff is coming out my ears! So, the vayemniri don’t care for dragons. How is the relationship with metalic dragons? I would […]

Yesterday, someone asked me the following: Erin could you help me please? I’m starting a D&D adventure on Facebook and my partner wants to be a Dragonborn Noble Sorceress and I’m wondering if Dragonborn have noble/royal bloodlines? I want to keep it as true to the realms as I can and I feel you are […]
