Dungeon A Day (Atomic Array 054)
Dungeon A Day (Atomic Array 054)
Looking for new material for your game, but you’re more interested in bite-sized morsels of campaign goodness than in large tomes that take days or weeks to consume? Looking to capture the feel of products like Ruins of Undermountain, Castle Whiterock and/or Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil in your campaign? Look no further than this interview with Owen KC Stephens and Stan! from Dungeon A Day, the subscription site that presents a new encounter every single weekday that you can run together, or tear out and put in your own world.
Now a two-year-old project, with over 750 encounters available for use, Dungeon A Day is on level 17 of 20 in the first mega-dungeon - “Dragon’s Delve.” In addition to Stan! and Owen, we’re also blessed with a conversation with the designer of this level, the awesomely talented Charles M. Ryan.

Geeking out over you having Charles Ryan on the show. Big Wheel of Time rgp fan right here. It’s so cool to hear what he’s up to.
Ryan, I think you can watch a few of the scenes from The Flight of Dragons on YouTube, to get an idea of how it goes. There’s another element to the movie I also liked; the main character enters the world of the dragons and wizards via a board game.

Gentlemen, excellent Array as always! I dig the Dungeonaday model and can’t wait to see what the next dungeon becomes. Maybe a City? Or a planar fortress? Sweet!
James
Thank you, James! The next Dungeonaday shall surely be a dungeon set within a colossal peach. Dare you enter the deepest levels of the pit to confront… James, tyrant of the 20th level?
Did you see what just happened there? You had a mystical confronting-your-own-dark-side-on-Dagobah type moment.
Well, it’s what I get for only bringing a giant peach in with me. Yoda warned me there’d be days like this…
Nice… Star Wars Motown!
Lead vox:
“Yoda warned there’d be days like this, there’d be days like this my yoda said…”
Back-up singers: “Yoda said, yoda said!”
Wild. High quality for an older trailer too. I think it just sold me on seeing the film. Thanks for the link, Dave.
I just find a Great) post here. I cant wait for watch it.
You’ve got great insights about TV shows, keep up the good work!
Bookmark it.
I can not believe
I “forgot” to study your weblog
because I uncovered it
three months earlier. As well busy
with operate I guess. Anyways i\’ve it bookmarked now to become
positive that I get
notified when you place
some new content material up.
Ed, you sold me on Flight of Dragons. I’m surprised to see the art so child-friendly, but you mentioned repeatedly that it was an animated film aimed at kids. You just gave this impression of such maturity I was expected more Night on Bald Mountain and less The Sorcerer’s Apprentice. Still very interested in checking this one out.
Also, thanks for the mention.
