Tara ran a wonderful intro to Draw Steel session. She took her time explaining the theme and mechanics of Draw Steel, as well as walking us through the character sheets. This was followed by a combat encounter and a negotiation, with clear explanations of some of the nuanced differences between Draw Steel and games we were more familiar with. A great intro!

A fun start to the campaign! Original did a wonderful job setting the environment of Barovia with choice music and wonderful choices of phrase to imply potential dangers. When we got into combat, we had a fun taste of what Barovia will offer with great cinematic flavoring from Original. A wonderful start, and I can't wait for next week! --------- Update: I am now 12+ sessions into the campaign and I am absolutely thrilled with Original's DM style, a great mix of fun and ominous. Combat is somehow incredibly balanced despite our wacky collage of abilities. An absolute joy to play each week. ---------- Just another update: nearing 150 sessions with Ori over the last 4 years. Still thoroughly enjoy playing with him. A great mix of ridiculous characters, fun combat, and lovely maps.
