D&D in the Castle

Apr 17, 2026

It’s not every day that a Dungeon Master gets to run D&D for clients in a historical castle in the Scottish countryside. Needless to say, it was my absolute pleasure to design a D&D 5e experience for 11 guests staying at the castle for a special birthday celebration. 8 hours of D&D with two groups of players embarking on a custom-written, homebrew adventure of my own design, set in the actual castle’s grounds and using historical maps to draw my combat battlemaps…. By the end of the stay, my clients had heroically defended the castle from an undead invasion, cleansed the surrounding lands of evil, and made magical memories to last a lifetime.

Keel Sparkhammer refuses to be a cog in the machine of someone else’s design. ⚙️ Sculpting and painting this custom mini of artificer Keel and his eldritch cannon duck was an absolute delight. Keel is a character in my ongoing Tide of Retribution campaign who has grown so much between Session 1 and our quickly-approaching Session 10. Thank you Ben for this mini commission! Interested in a custom, hand-sculpted and hand-painted mini commission for your own TTRPG character? Reach out via DM!
