We're less than halfway through The Lost Mine of Phandelver and already Matthew is clamoring to be the DM. He's working on his own tale about a town whose wealth has been stolen by a greedy dragon. His story is set in the Forgotten Realms*, but as a bit of a nod to the Front Porch multiverse, my wizard's name is Kentigern -- the same name I used for my wizard character during the big Front Porch fifteenth anniversary epic that Tim W ran back in 2003. Matthew has a really good grasp of the basic 5e game mechanics, but it will be interesting to see how he reacts to a wizard whose arcane spells will no doubt wreak havoc with his melee-heavy encounters!
* - Despite not being a huge fan of the Realms, I have to admit that I got a real charge out of hearing my kid talk about the Sword Coast! Baldur's Gate is going to be a lot more meaningful for him the next time he plays around with it.
