Chapter 5, Page 2 is up. Mathilde goes shopping and doesn’t like what she overhears at the marketplace. To see a preview of what Mathilde does next, vote for Snow by Night on Top Web Comics. I’m afraid that I don’t have a convention report for you from GenCon. I have knee surgery tomorrow so I’m a little distracted. I’ll do my best to get the report up for the Friday update.

Hello everyone! Diane and I are back from GenCon (just got back 15 minutes ago at 1 a.m.). The convention was incredible. I’ll have a convention report and pictures up by Wednesday.

Chapter 5 Ill-Gotten Gains begins. In this chapter Blaise and Jassart discover the many consequences of a job well done. To see a preview of the first consequence, vote for Snow by Night on Top Web Comics.

Journal entries are great, if you remember to do them. I completely spaced on it so this morning was a shock and scramble with lots of Muppet-like flailing. I sometimes wonder if I’d remember my name if people didn’t call me it all the time >_<; Oi Vey.

Anyways, Things have been a bit crazy but we’re still gearing up for Chapter 5. This one should be a lot of fun! A bit more action and some consequences for past action. Or maybe actions? Guess you gotta stay tuned to find out. C:

Thanks again to all who stop by and read. And a special thanks to those who comment! It means a lot to us, even when it’s a critique! It means the world to know you took the time to comment, so thanks!

Again, sorry this is so short. Life distracted me and I fell short this week on my duties >__<;; Arg!

~Britt

Diane’s note: It’s okay Britt, both Eric AND I forgot about the update too! Whoops. That’s a lot of memory loss right there. Sorry about the confusion, and I hope you enjoy Eric’s update to our Alamanc entry under Weapons.

Page 7 of Law of the Riverside Part 2 is up. This concludes Ald’s tale of how and why he came to Saronne. My thanks to Natalie Baaklini for bringing it to life with her incredible art. She did a fabulous job, especially considering that I asked her to pick up coloring duties on top of the vignettes. She’s a woman of miracles.

We start Chapter 5 on Monday. It’s titled Ill-Gotten Gains. To see Brittany’s inks for the cover, vote for Snow by Night on Top Web Comics.

Diane and I leave for GenCon tomorrow. I’ll be away until Sunday night, running the new iteration of D&D. It looks really good. I’m really excited about sharing it with new players. Brittany will be doing the journal entry on Friday. So you’re in for a treat.

Page 6 of Law of the Riverside Part 2 is up. One of the Phoenix Men asks, “You’re no lawman. What’s this to you anyway?” Ald answers with acts, not words. To see a preview of the final page of Law of the Riverside Part 2, please vote for Snow by Night on Top Web Comic. It’s well worth it. I think it might be Naty’s best panel for the entire vignette.

GenCon is coming up this week. I leave on Wednesday. This is going a great convention. I have a book being released (Menzoberranzan: City of Intrigue) and I’m judging a lot of D&D Next, the new version of D&D. It’s a very good system. I’m looking forward to running it and sharing the wonder and imagination with as many people as possible.

This week’s Almanac entry is Morante. This rival nation to Saronne has been mentioned several times in the course of the comic, most recently in Ald’s tale. So I figured it was time to reveal a little bit of information about the country.

GenCon is next week. I’ll be running D&D Next adventures most of the time, showing people the new system for my favorite RPG. We’ll be running interested players through adventures set in Menzoberranzan, which just happens to be the city I wrote a book about. Amazon has updated their records for Menzoberranzan: City of Intrigue to list me as one of the authors.

Page 5 of Law of the Riverside Part 2 is up. The Phoenix Men show why they’re the most dangerous crew in Sherbourg. Naty is excellent at drawing action scenes and she shines on this and coming pages. To see what Grégoire is up to while the other Phoenix Men engage Ald, vote for Snow by Night on Top Web Comics.

In addition to Snow by Night, I do freelance work for Wizards of the Coast.This month, I have a new book coming out. Menzoberranzan – City of Intrigue. This book describes the legendary city of the dark elves of the Forgotten Realms and contains rules for playing drow. What? You want to see some excerpts with incredible art? Sure, I can do that. Chapter 1: Campaign of Intrigue, Chapter 2: The Way of Lolth, Chapter 3: Drow Factions, Chapter 4: The City of Spiders, Chapter 5: The North Dark, and Chapter 6: Be a Drow. Enjoy!

Page 4 of Law of the Riverside Part 2 is up. Ald forces the issue with the Phoenix Men in a confrontation that reminds him of a scene from his past. To see a sneak preview of Wednesday’s page, please vote for Snow by Night on Top Web Comic.

Oh, I wanted to mention that Snow by Night has been getting some reviews. Diane has been posting links to the reviews on our Extras page below the fan art. Check them out and see if you agree with them. I found them interesting.
