I noticed today that my friend John of Damn Elf Press fame has started a player’s journal for his Hero Ambrose in my Nolenor OD&D campaign. A wonderful idea,  it’s nice to read things from the player’s perspective (and while you are there, read through his Perils on the Borderlands solo Pits & Perils campaign). The game is a true sandbox, one I’ve really enjoyed running for our gaming group, all experienced players who surprise me almost every session (and give me ideas for our subsequent sessions). I also realized, looking back through my own play reports, that Ambrose is the only player character who has survived  from the very first adventure!
