We're Back...

This past Wednesday night, we returned to our actual play, Norrøngard Unscripted, after a hiatus of a couple months. We stopped to go away and finally finish our Empire of the Ghouls campaign (a great, book-length adventure from Kobold Press). We didn't want to stream the last chapter

2025 is out the door, and 2026 is just getting started. Thank you to everyone who spent some of your time here and/or adventuring in the land of Norrøngard. It's too early to know exactly what is in store for Thrones & Bones in the coming year,

The Thrones & Bones actual play, Norrøngard Unscripted, returns tomorrow after our 2-week hiatus, picking up where we left off. Last episode, "A New Day in a New Town," saw our heroes tasked by the jarl of Oslendholm to investigate a mysterious portal that had appeared in the

Tomb Raiding...

Last night we played Tomb of the Frost Giant. Our intrepid crew got most of the way through the adventure, but we left off on a cliffhanger (literally) and we'll finish next Wednesday. We nearly had a TPK in the first encounter, but, as they so often do,
