I only disagree with one thing said in this story. This is *exactly* the type of story that should be said on all things DND. And I am so happy it was! I would love to hear more stories like this in all things DND, as well as the traditional adventure story. Kudos to both the Storyteller and the people on all things DND for posting this great tale!

Prattle the Kobold's player and current server head of Pandora's Hope here, thank you so much to All Things DnD for featuring our community not once, but twice already in your videos, with more seemingly on the way! Your first video was the only way I ever would have found Arcadia to begin with, and it's been such a core part of my life for the past two years. And now, it looks like we're gonna get a recruiting boost from your channel again the second time round. We've come full circle, and here's to another whole campaign to generate stories and memories in for a new generation of players!

If this story is an example of what a great westmarch server experience is like then Neckbeardia's westmarch server is a powerful reminder of what happens when you give the wrong kind of people too much power. It was nice to see that much of the server was salvaged and remade into something better after the original descended into maddening oblivion. I don't know if this chef was the same one I knew from the Neckbeardia westmarch, but I am glad someone like that was the corner stone of something amazing. Take care all and may your games be blessed with wonder.

I've never done anything with Westmarch, but this sounds absolutely AWESOME! For a while, I participated in a Perf MMORPG, back in the days of nothing but text. My sister brought me into it, and convinced me to be a weaver, like her. It was really neat! But life, happened, and I dropped out quickly. But this reminded me of that, quite a bit, especially the first two weeks, w her everyone developed their PCs and properties. Sounds like SO MUCH FUN.
