This week we focus on how to successfully start a campaign. It is fun and all to start in a tavern, but at times that start can become...well...stale like the left over bread in the cellar. As much fun as over sized mutated rats can be or the town hobo who babbles about tales of ages past, consider starting your campaign a different way this time around.
