The hardware supply list is pretty straightforward: Have fun with this intro and I hope you find what works best for you! Measure twice, cut once… There are so many possibilities for extending the interface, hardware, and modules for the MagicMirror. We both think it’s super cool and useful when getting ready each morning. My wife was totally surprised by the result and appreciated all my effort. This project was a ton of fun and I learned a lot about woodworking and Raspberry Pi. The biggest time suck for me was building the frame (twice) and setting up all the different API keys for the various services that would feed data into the modules I selected. This saved me a lot of time getting it all set up quick. The combo of the Raspberry Pi and MagicMirror seemed like a good homemade gift idea since I was already familiar with Raspberry Pi as a platform. They can be used to show stats, weather, photos, traffic commute estimates, transit schedules, entertainment, and any other kinds of things you can imagine. Well, a smart mirror is a dual-function mirror with a display behind it that presents multimedia and information while still functioning as a mirror. If you’re feeling especially adventurous you could spread it out over a week or three while #stayingathome or over a holiday break. This particular smart mirror uses Raspberry Pi and MagicMirror.ĭepending on how deep you want to get with things you can build your own over the course of an afternoon or two. After some research and inspiration, I finally landed on the right project: a smart mirror. I figured this would be more meaningful than a pair of socks and some stale candy canes. I wanted to create something that combined my tech skills with my attempt at being a woodworker. Bambra felt that since the modules were designed for higher-level characters, some of the encounters were inaccessible for lower-level characters however, he concluded that if players had high-level characters available, they should "by all means play them, you won't regret it.This past holiday season, I decided I wanted to do something a little different for my wife’s gift. He felt that while the modules could be played individually, they work best when played together as they frequently interconnect, and player characters adventuring in one module could suddenly find themselves in the other.
He enjoyed the "rich vein of humour" that runs through both this module and Dungeonland. Jim Bambra positively reviewed the module in issue 48 of White Dwarf magazine, rating it 9 out of 10. Similarly, the cover image of EX1 Dungeonland shows an encounter from this module (the attack of the roc raven).ĭungeonland and The Land Beyond the Magic Mirror were designed to allow the DM to place them as an extension of any existing dungeon intended for 9th-12th level characters. In keeping with its sense of oddity and surprise, the cover of this module depicts a scene from its companion adventure EX1 Dungeonland (a battle with a hangman tree). To maintain the element of surprise, the module advises dungeon masters to keep the players in the dark about what is happening as long as possible, although well-read players will eventually recognize the literary source of the encounters. An appendix to the module notes that Gygax adapted the module from his own D&D campaign. It was published in 1983 as a 32-page booklet with an outer folder. The module was written by Gary Gygax and illustrated by Jim Holloway. This module, like its companion Dungeonland, is a close adaptation of a work of fiction by Lewis Carroll, in this case Through the Looking-Glass. They encounter the Jabberwock, the Bandersnatch, and the Walrus and the Carpenter, and become involved in a gigantic game of chess. In this module, the player characters plummet into a strange partial plane. It is set in the World of Greyhawk campaign setting. The Land Beyond the Magic Mirror (EX2) is an adventure module, written for use with the first edition Advanced Dungeons & Dragons roleplaying game.
