First, a bit of site news. You may have noticed that the ROFLInitiative URL reverted to its original Blogspot path. Unfortunately, due to some credit card updates, my domain payment failed, and I neglected to update my license until a week after the domain was dropped. In that week, someone snatched up www.roflinitiative.com and repurposed it for some poorly organized Florida-based law blog? Hopefully they enjoy questions and comments about D&D.
My wife and I finished watching Marvel's The Defenders on Netflix last night. Though the quality felt like it was down from Daredevil, Jessica Jones, or Luke Cage, I personally still really enjoyed my time with it. I found it especially inspiring as a GM. The structure of the first few episodes felt like an almost perfectly executed D&D campaign introduction. The writers did a great job of weaving the motivations of each hero into the main storyline, and in establishing existing relationships between different pairs of the heroes (PCs) and several of the supporting characters (NPCs.)
Be warned, thar be spoilers below:
