Kingbeast's Lair

Every now and then you find a site that has a treasure trove of information for your campaign. Well…the Terra Incognita site is one of these gold piles.

The first you find when going to the site is the Daily Dispatch page. This page has up to the minutes sites that can be used to enhance your Victorian or Pulp game. The webmaster and author of the game, Scott Larson, does the updates himself and they are frequent. He updates this page almost DAILY with new gems. This alone is worth visiting the site.

Other pages of note are the Resources, Library, and Link tabs. There is a TON of information on media resources that can be used to enhance your gaming life. Material is very detailed and extremely well organized. In fact a couple of weeks ago Scott sorted all of the links into smaller pages. The change really improved the functionality of the site.

The last stellar thing about the site is the responsiveness of Scott Larson. I’ve sent him ideas for dispatches, problems I found with the site, etc and I get responses within minutes. Just awesome.

Go visit already! 🙂

On Monday night (07/23/07) I wrapped up my Star Aria space opera campaign.? (It was a Star Hero based campaign that I started over 3 years ago.)? The last session was an absolute blast!? The PC end up saving the universe by defeating an ancient alien menace known as Ankmil.? He was from a long forgotten race known as the Patriarchs.? Ankmil had been pestering the PCs since the start of the campaign.? Not only was the last session climactic but we talked about the campaign afterwards and it was a great learning experience for everyone.? My players were good about letting me know what they liked and did not like.

I’m trying a couple of interesting things to wrap up the campaign with a bang.? One of the things I am doing is having each of the players write a couple of paragraphs about what their character is doing after the last session.? I encouraged them to add any elements from the campaign that they want to use.? It should be really fun to read their stories.? I also plan to post these on the Star Aria site.? See the link on the left.
Another thing that I plan to do is to update the Star Aria site with the final versions of their characters and the logs.? This should make a great read for anyone who want to take a look.

My next campaign…Terra Incognito: Ancient Mysteries…watch this space for details!? 😀
