Isolation Diary: Up late doing the laundry so as not to stress the power grid. Remember when we could go see a movie to cool off? Today, Jessie, Duncan, and I, with Maggie as Dungeon Master finished our campaign. We adventurers defeated the dragon but our human adversary slipped away. (To be dealt with later?) We had all been afraid that we were all going to die but we came up with a plan of attack that actually worked. I may seem to be going on about this but D and D does capture one’s attention once you enter into the game. After a week’s break, we will begin another adventure with me as DM this time so Maggie can play a character. This game has been providing fun and mental stimulus and interaction, not just game related, throughout these Covid months. Almost daily I question what I ‘should’ be doing. New projects? Back burner items? Home repairs? Where does this game fit in? Because it is a partnership with character choices and the rolls of the dice, flexibility is required. And staying flexible is always good.

I will be the first to admit I was never good at D&D.
It has to do with the sad reality that I am a jerk.
I played once with a group of serious weirdos in the Army of all places.
I started off by insulting the guy assigned as the dungeon master. I did everything out of rebellion. When the other players laughed at me it motivated me to not only mock the concept of make-believe but it only further motivated me to make decisions that were designed to further insult the assigned dungeon master.
It didn’t take long before I died a horrific and painful death.
Now I get it. Yeah, like several decades too late.
I now have a better understanding of the point of the game due to your isolation diary.
Thanks. You have broadened my world perspective.Natascha C.A.
The boys have got into DnD right before the pandemic started. We’ve had a terrific time playing. I bet you’re going to be a wonderful DM!!Ruth Silveira
We will see. I investigated a FB group and these people add amazing elements to their stories. Helps me see how wide open it can be.Mandi M.H.
Table top role playing games are amazing.Laura E.F.
Don’t know the game but love the questions it pops up!
