Map Pack Mansion: Entry Hall

The final location in the Mansion set is this four tile Entry Hall. I like the broken chandelier on the floor.

Dragon's Trove Previews & Gaming Changes

I'm excited to see the Dragon's Trove Previews on the Paizo Blog. The first preview, the box art, and the advertisement in Dungeon Magazine make it clear that they're getting to most weapons which didn't see the light of day in the first four sets. Preview 2 showcases some beautiful artwork by Vincent Dutrait. And it's hard to beat the price of the new non-random cards.

There's lots of gaming changes going on in my life. On the plus side, I am now a player in a monthly game that meets all day Saturday. The setting is Sharn in Eberron, and the PCs are refugees from Cyre. I'm playing a LE binder/warlock whose philosophy is a lot like Magneto's.

On the minus side, I will no longer be GMing my Age of Worms campaign weekly on Thursday nights after next week. The gaming group will continue at someone else's house with someone else in the GM's seat, and I will probably participate as a player, but I had to make some adjustments now that I'm taking care of three kids and Heather is working full time. I hope we'll be able to continue the Age of Worms by meeting occasionally on a Saturday or Sunday.

Starting Monday I'll be a full time dad until at least the end of July. I'm not sure how much time I'll have to post updates to the blog, but I do have images prepared for Map Pack: Campsites, and I'll do what I can to get a Dragon's Trove gallery up once the cards are available.

Map Pack Mansion: Portrait Gallery

They call it a Portrait Gallery, but the first thing I noticed about this two tile location is the statues. Animate them when the PC's are half way down the hallway. That will serve them right for ignoring the scenery.

Map Pack Mansion: Sitting Room

Another dark room, this one comprised of two tiles. This would make an interesting place to meet with a sage or patron.

Map Pack Mansion: Rickety Staircase

One of the better lit single tile locations in this set is the Staircase. Put an archer at the top, and rig several of the steps to collapse when someone charges up to engage them in melee. Mad God's Key, anyone?

Map Pack Mansion: Root Cellar

Cellars like this one give me the creeps. You're just asking for trouble in a place like this.
