Out Now on the DMs Guild
Wintry Blast |
February is for a month for love. Two of my loves are Dungeons & Dragons 5e and Magic: the Gathering. To celebrate (and as a creative exercise), all February long I am using one random Magic card per day as inspiration and converting it into a D&D concept. The cards might end up becoming magic items, NPCs, villains, plot points, spells, potions...you name it!
How am I doing this? I'm using a website called Sealed Deck Generator to open a single pack of Magic cards for each day of the month. I'll start with Fourth Edition for Day 1 (because that's when I started playing the game as a wee lad). Of the cards revealed in that pack, I will select one and I'll do so quickly! Since this is an every day endeavor, I will aim to trust my gut and not spend a whole lot of time wringing my hands over the selection. Likewise, I'm not spending a ton of time worry about balance, fleshing out ideas, etc. Some ideas will be need more refinement than others to work into an actual game of D&D, and that's OK. I should mention that all of these ideas are being shared on Twitter, and as well all know, you can't get too wordy over there. Occasionally throughout the month, I will take an idea and expand upon with a blog post, giving it the full creative treatment. These ideas I will hand pick based on what is inspiring me and how much more I have to say about the concept I came up with. Please follow me on Twitter @rjquestgiver to track this project. I'll be using the hashtags #dnd and #mtg in each post. And of course, check back here for those more in-depth treatments. I hope you all enjoy this project and find some inspiration of your own. Share the love!
