If anyone missed his last post, Christian has taken down his Destination Unknown blog. I’ll miss reading his posts. Of late, he was keeping us up to date, with his adventure into running a WOD campaign for the first time. In the process, he revealed a lot about himself and his approach to GMing.
His writing on Destination Unknown, was honest and sincere. I feel blessed, to have been able to share a little, in his world. One of the things that always came through in his posts, was his desire to provide his players with a special experience.
The DM as Host, is a concept I’ve always resonated with and have striven to manifest in my games. Unlike Christian, I’m not much of a cook. My wife has always taken care of the culinary duties, on game day. Inviting friends into our home, sharing a meal and then doing my utmost to create a magical experience for my players, is a very, special thing. One I’ll hopefully, always have in my life.
Christian would often make video posts, of himself preparing lunch for his group. After his game, he would make another post, analyzing his game and giving us glimpses, as to where he was going to take things. Always, his generosity towards and care for his players was evident.
Christian’s Iridia site, is still up. Along with contact information. Also, he has another blog, Cook and Destroy.
Best wishes, Christian. Don’t be a stranger! And Happy Gaming!

Right on, James. I appreciate the kind words. I'm still scribbling away and will e-mail you soon so that I can inflict some good old fashioned snail mail upon you.
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, I will keep reading this blog. Daily!
Yeah, I'll miss that blog, he was really willing to allow us a view into his game world, and it's appreciated. Best Regards Christian. I'll be following on Iridia...
ReplyDeleteAw, I never knew about this but it sounds cool. Why do all the cool blogs go away?

His blog will be missed. I found it because of the "I dream in 25mm" posts but he _almost_ made me want to give WoD a whirl, which is something.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to hearing from you, Christian!
ReplyDeletePeace out Christian. I'll need to change my links so they include the Iridia page. I always enjoyed the video updates!
ReplyDeleteLike a twisted version of Pavlov's dog, I started drooling when I read "Cook and Destroy." Best wishes, Christian.
