dave arneson's world of blackmoor

A week from today something special is going to happen.

Although Blackmoor comes into existence before may 22nd 1971, most players refer to the in town adventure on this date as the beginning of what has come to be known as Blackmoor.  Arneson himself always used that date as the demarcation of when Blackmoor started

Of course before this, there was the druid with the hand phaser, and the card game under a troll bridge. It is even possible that Duane Jenkins became a vampire before this session. 

Dave Arneson passed away in 2009, yet his friends keep his memory alive by running an annual Blackmoor game for those who were in the original campaign.  We wanted to help the guys celebrate the longest running fantasy campaign ever, by making a little video.

We've been on a tear over our KILLER DM discussion, ironically both James and Greg claim that people didn't die much in Blackmoor. Perhaps they have this perspective because both of them had characters that rose to the highest levels, certainly others did not fair so well.

This year marks the 47th year since the First Fantasy Campaign began. You too can join in and run a game in honor of Dave's memory. 

Blackmoor is alive!

Dave Arneson lives in our hearts.
