Bunch of Characters

My latest column for The Escapist—“A Bunch of Characters”—just went up this morning. In this installment I discuss the process of helping Marty and his friends create their first-ever characters for our new Dungeons & Dragons campaign. I didn’t find this as easy as I thought it should be, but in the end I think Wizards got it right. Read the article to see how.

In other news, Merry Christmas! The kids got us up early this morning to see what Santa had brought, and we’ve been eating all sorts of treats and playing with toys and games ever since. Here’s hoping you have a wonderful holiday too!
