Welcome back, it’s Christmas and that means I can make a pun about crits and some blogs about dealing vast amounts of damage at level 8.

A few years ago, I had an idea for a 5e campaign taking place in a magical university, and built up a setting around this, an archipelago of eighty isles, the most important of which was called Roke. If this sounds identical to the setting of Earthsea, that's because it is. But, I'm looking to change that up now and in this series I'll build a more original world, while also talking about the role settings play in a D&D campaign.
