Pathfinder 2E, Shadowdark…
What's new at my gaming table?
The month of May was a significant advancement in the Abomination Vaults campaign with the Pathfinder 2E system. Three games saw the exploration of level 2 continue, and that of level 3 begin (in pain against a particularly devious ghoul!). Adventurers, resting in Otari, also saw the village besieged by undead and chitinous creatures teleported from the megadungeon itself. There's a lot to be done to prevent occult forces from devastating the region and beyond, perhaps even Absalom?
The Shadowdark open table has picked up a bit of activity with a group heading to Shadowhold, a ruin that's certainly busy! Bandits holed up, harassed by goblins hidden deep within a fort, and a group of adventurers caught in the middle, exploring sacked rooms filled with giant spiders!
Latest articles published on the blog

I still managed to publish several articles this month. First, on a site that regularly publishes old-school tokens, AD&D fans will find inspiration from iconic monster manuals.
Then, I put online a small one-page dungeon, the Spiders’ Lair, which I had been preparing for a while. I had used this map almost identically in a D&D5 campaign, then I published it using Dungeon Alchemist and I remade it this time on the Dungeon Scrawl site, again to have an old-school feel. It seems to please the Shadowdark Game Masters. At least, I hope...
And finally, I wrote two book reviews on the recent D12Monthly (issue 46) and an old Dragon Magazine (issue 348), because it's always nice to vary your reading and get inspired by what you find there.
Readings and inspirations
Readings: After finishing Exile, the second volume of the Drizzt saga which sees him find friends, but also and above all enemies in the Underdark, I moved on to Sojourn, with the exit into the open air. In pain since the dangers continue to pursue the hero.
Films & Series: nothing this month!
Creations, tips, shop…
Publications of the month
I still have some creative ideas, in addition to the Spiders’ Lair that I published this month. I've also been motivated to format my campaign notes in my homebrew world of Kalendir. The question remains how to publish them: blog articles, website/wiki or PDF documents? The thinking is ongoing and your opinions are valuable!
