Preparing the Royal Wedding
Getting ready for a Royal Wedding I have been behind the scenes preparibg for since I startes this campaign almost 3 years ago.
There will be a formal reception in the Grand Cathedral, A procession through the gardens, and a reception, tournament, and public execution at the faire grounds.
This will be an interesting time.
The Ice Forge
To the very far North, while meandering through the many vast caverns and ancient mines that make up the Underdark, you will come across a Dwarven ruin built right into the rock itself. This fortress, abandoned centuries ago, was once known as the Ice Forge. This smelting foundry was used as a frontier outpost to fend off the threats of the frozen wastes above, that would try to find their way down into the mines built deep below.
This forgotten bastion once housed a legion of Dwarven warriors and foundry workers. The smelters have all long since frozen shut, the forges ice cold, and the barracks emptied by all but the dead who had been left entombed within.
Now, after all this time, a cult of demon worshipping fanatics have found their way in, seeking to find an ancient relic located deep within the inner sanctum.
Will they get in?
Will anyone be able to stop them in time?

Koi Pond Terrain
As I have been preparing my Japanese feudal city in preparation for the upcoming Oriental Adventures: Dungeons & Dragons 3.5 book (yes, that is a real book and thats what it is titled), portion of my ongoing homebrewed campaign storyline
I have painted hundreds of Samurai, Japanese City Guard, nobles and common folk, city fortress walls, businesses, temples, farm land, and my favorite I just finished, these Koi Ponds.
Each section has been painted with unique Koi patterns, before the pools I filled with scenic water effects, then topped off with 2 layers of a water ripple medium, brushed to look like small waves and ripples, before having its peaks painted white. The 2 layers cuse light to difuse in different directions, giving a very realistic appearance.
Let me know what you think.

The Most Dangerous Monster...
Nothing is more dangerous to any party adventuring through a dungeon, than a gigantic kitten (played by the newest member of the family Maximus...) especially an inquisitive one, who really dislikes tieflings in particular for some reason...
Everyone... ROLL FOR INITIATIVE!!!
