Let the gaming resume!

So tomorrow we are picking up our regularly scheduled gaming group. I'm stealing from a variety of sources for inspiration but a tip of the hat goes to Randy for his achievements post. I'm also going to blatantly rip off Gabe's (of Penny Arcade fame) loot table idea. There was a time when I'd scoff at these types of things and rant about character motivation and story arc, but I'm really loving that we can side step occasionally and have a night of Descent like fun with our gaming. I'll try to remember to post an update on what worked and what didn't if my memory doesn't fail me. What about you? Is you gaming group getting freed from the Carbonite of the holidays now?
