Hmm…I just realized I may actually finally finish the Darkon campaign (lvl 1-15) I’ve been writing for about 2 years now by the fall. Just in time for spooky season! Now I just have to figure out if it’s worth doing all the formatting to put it on DMsGuild.

So many other great wizard books out there: - Merlin triology - Wizard of Earthsea series - Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell - Howl's Moving Castle - Sorcery of Thorns - Elric of Melniboné series - A Sorceress Comes to Call - The Last Unicorn - Uprooted - Discworld: Unseen University & Witch series

I can't remember when I started the project, but I am nearly done writing up all my Darklord reviews written from Azalin's perspective. Been contemplating posting them here twice a week from the start as I've been having difficulty being 'active' on this site and that may inspire me into activity.

The hours I spend researching Ravenloft lore to ultimately end up creating my own stories for my games is kind of hilarious.

I've figured out how to circumvent my curse! Acorn-fed Iberico salami. With this mouthfeel, I don't even want to know what it tastes like. It can't be as good as what I'm imagining.

My daily to do list: - Attempt to learn a new spell just in case my tormentors aren’t paying attention - Ten hours of scheming - Four hours of laboratory experimentation - Twenty minute screaming break in the Room of Silence - At least another eight hours of scheming - Light reading if time allows

Yes, yes. Being a lich grants you vast, unfathomable arcane prowess, but at what cost? Most animals fear you and booping a zombie on their half-decaying snoot is not nearly the same.

"Can you explain the gap in your resume?" Ah, yes. That was shortly after I inadvertedly transformed Il Aluk into Necropolis and my essences was scattered throughout Darkon. In 3 years I was able to form corherent thoughts and in another 2 was able to manipulate some adventurers to set things right

If the doom guards patrolling the battlements and the birds plummeting to their death if they even look at Castle Avernus doesn’t keep unwanted visitors at bay, perhaps the recent foot of snow will.

The temptation to put the mansion and cast of What We Do in the Shadows as NPCs in my Ravenloft game is very high...

Suggestion I overheard from an AU version of yours: Great Disjunction! Could be neat, could be fun...

Feeling bored. Might cause another Grand Conjunction. I dunno...

New Year's Resolutions? Acknowledging I need to change? Bah! Who has time for such nonsense when escape attempt 665 is underway?

Twas the night before Lichmas When all through my lair Not a creature was stirring Not even a mind flayer

People complain about me ‘raising undead armies’ but what they don’t understand is its just easier to walk all your zombies and skeletons at the same time.

Not only is the individual behind the Strahd account a great person, he's a great author as well! Check it out here:

Hmm...If I purchase this Acererak t-shirt and tell everyone its me on it, do you think they'll know?

Opening a new University in Darkon devoted to STEM: Skeletons. Test-Subjects. Evil. Machinations.

Here, a Washington accurate version of Edward. That's it, that's the skeet.

Where can this basic lich get a decent peppermint hot chocolate around here?

It's that time of year again... Lich playing the Switch.

Warlock Patron tip of the day: If your Warlock asks if you’re a God, you say yes.

I don’t wanna be buried in the Great Cemetary Don’t wanna be a toy for Azalin

Personally the only ship I want to be included in is a spelljammer that transports me to Oerth.

The Domain of Dread's very own burnt BBQ chicken in a rusty bucket has arrived!

It's that time of year again when I start receiving dinner invitations from both @ivandilisnya.bsky.social and @ivanaboritsi.bsky.social for the same day and time. So...which one of you will be hosting the best party?

Need assistance with a new scrying device - specifically if there's a feature to block incoming messages from a certain swarmy bastard of a vampire with too many capes.

Seeking new minions. If interested, ensure you meet the following requirements: - Able to give genuine compliments to me on a daily basis. - Work odd hours. I don’t sleep, why should you? - Zero ambitions. - A fondness for magic, but not a willingness to learn more than me.

Post you from a different era (Spellfire was a hell of a game...)

You know you have a doctor who understands you when they specifically go out of the way to inform you that they love your 'creepin it real' socks. And before you ask, yes my lich toes get cold. They're pretty much always cold.

🎶 Last Christmas I have you a cape, the very next day you gave me a stake 🎶 In the heart :(

There's a topic regarding the ethics of polymorphing people into objects at the Multiverse Wizard's Conference today. My first question shall be "what are these ethics you speak of?"

At the Multiverse Wizard's Conference this week. There's already bets being placed on how many of these young upstarters will modify a simple spell and claim they invented it. Fireball does not need your name in front of it, Steve the Magnificient.

Arsenic and OLD lace? So trite. If you're going to use a classic poison, give it a modern twist. I recommend arsenic and a breathable cotton blend.

It's Saturday and I'm in a decent mood for once. I think I shall raise all 500 corpses in my basement and throw a rave this evening.

The demiplane is growing ... looks like @darklordazalin.bsky.social, @ivandilisnya.bsky.social, @blueskybrain.bsky.social, and @barovianwaffles.bsky.social are all here. Who else will the Mists claim??

The Darklords are escaping the demiplane of dread formerly known as twitter to this Blue Sky application...Still not Oerth but perhaps one step away? Surly when I finally return, I will be greeted with open arms. It's only been a few centuries, how much could have changed?

When a place gets so toxic that even the ruler of Borca has to pack up and head to a place with bluer skies, you KNOW it's serious. Ruler. Singular. Only one of us counts.

OOC: Will attempt to be responsive on here though may take me some time to aclimate to this type of SM again. I made this back when I quit Twitter which...was...a while ago. Anyway - my point is I'm not used to this type of site so let an 'old man' get used to it again :D

My old friend @strahdvonz.bsky.social apparently needs someone to make fun of him, so I have arisen from my phylactery, more than equal to the task.

I have been thoroughly distracted by my own machinations and haven't explored this new demiplane I find myself in. So far, I like it here more than that other demiplane of dread. Perhaps because there are less people milling about clamouring for attention. I have never been overly fond of people...

So my husband and I have a podcast called Wonderful World of Darklords where we convert Disney movies to Ravenloft domains of dread, and we... somehow figured out how to do Toy Story? (And by "we" I mostly mean "he," but I helped!) redcircle.com/shows/d462cb...

I know we're not doing RP accounts anymore, but I couldn't resist making this one :D

The concept of your first post being seen by everyone is intimidating. Anyway, hi. This account on mine will focus on Ravenloft lore, horror media, and my love of Halloween and liches through both serious and humorous posts.
