Two weeks ago while I was walking through the Davis streets I found a Fitbit on the ground.

$100 for a smart phone peripheral!
$100 for a smart phone peripheral!

It was one of the simple models without any touchscreen, but it did have an unusual piece of metal where a touchscreen would’ve been.

The metal plate had the owner’s name and contact numbers for her family members. Presumably so that if she was found injured and unable to communicate someone would be able to contact her loved ones.

I called her husband’s number and left a message.

Unsatisfied with that I looked up her name on Google and found her Facebook page to message her there as well.

She called me back later that day and came to my house to pick up the Fitbit and say thanks.

I didn’t think much of it until I got letter in the mail that had no address or stamp, just my name.

Inside the letter was a thank you note from the Fitbit owner and a Starbucks gift card!

Outside Thank You Inside Thank You

A happy little surprise for my good deed earlier and a free coffee! And also a reminder that I have yet to pen my Christmas cards. >_<

Welcome to the GoCorral website! I’m Isaac Shaker and this is a place for me to write about D&D and occasionally other topics. I host a podcast called Setting the Stage that interviews different DMs about their campaigns. I’m currently focused on completing the Cimmeria campaign setting and turning it into a book.

Setting the Stage Podcast

83 – Call of Cthulhu's Garden (Hem and The Sprouting) Setting the Stage, Campaigns for D&D and Other RPGs

Hem tells us about their actual play campaign, The Sprouting. Within the world of The Sprouting, Earth's history diverged during the 1800s when an eldritch horror was summoned into our reality. The horror lay in wait for centuries, building up a secret army of plant monsters. In 2020, the plant monsters struck, ruining infrastructure and attacking population centers across the world. One hundred years have passed and our heroes learn that the next stage of the plant apocalypse has begun…We also discussed some of the difficulties and pleasures of actual play podcasts and how the RPG community varies internationally (Hem is in Iceland).If you want to try listening to The Sprouting its available on all major podcast platforms. You can learn more on The Sprouting's website.For other shows produced by Hem check out Blighthouse Studio's website.Hem mentioned The Lucky Die actual play show of theirs several times which used D&D 5e.And the broader network of Fable and Folly has their website too.Check out the Setting the Stage website!Want to be on the show?
