I don't know anything, I swear! I didn't do it! Actually, in this case, it's mostly just that the 'loths have blockaded Nimicri. And Abat has asked us to take a look. What could go wrong? I also figure it's kind of hard to blockade the place when people can gate, teleport, and use other...

I tend to agree on the fortune front. Shems had DM'ed for us before in other fashions, which were also fun, but more traditional D&D flavors of things. Good party, bad guys, save people from dragons, etc. And I think at that time we were all new players generally to most D&D, so getting involved...

I still have a fondness for magic. I doubt you'll find me playing too many characters that don't cast in some way shape or form. Doing the fighter thing, not really my style. I may however, wander out into a paladin at some point. I think I could do religious zealot rather well. But, in this...

Since someone was gracious enough to reply to this thread, I managed to get a copy of the headers that were sent to my yahoo account. I've sanitized the appropriate portions to keep things from getting nasty on my end, but this may also help in fixing the problem. Return-Path...

I run a domain in which several people there subscribe to the forums here. As such, they get e-mails whenever new threads are posted. I happened to be poking at the logs, and noticed that there are a large number of rejected e-mails that are coming from the website. I'll post the snippet of...

Actually, if you murder enough people it seems to get pretty quiet around you, regardless of how much noise you make in the process. And for those who think you still make too much noise, a sufficient amount of money will usually keep them quiet. So, as you can tell, quiet is one of those...

Indeed! I'm having almost as much fun playing her as I did Tristol. The archmage had a lot more history and background, as well as story to tell. But Inva is much more fun for single events and good snarky comments. And of course playing an NE (almost CE) character means that you get to look at...

Sure you've seen it before. I had that one done back in late 2003. I brought in the laptop and showed it off to everyone at the time. I think this was in the midst of a bunch of other character art that had been trickling into the group. So it likely didn't make as big a splash to be remembered...

Given the mass amount of speculation going on and the comparisons to Naruto I figured I'd share a few random words with the audience. While on a purely looks based idea, Naruto is a relatively decent match. In the picture, the idea is very similar: ears, tail, short hair. However, he's not quite...

Most people would like to say 'Yes', but in this case we reasoned a no. We discussed how we could even beat the archfiend in the first place, and given that if we just kept killing her we'd just have to wait until she ran out of spells to get her here. But, if she were a smart fiend (which they...

As per usual, there's a disclaimer: The diary contains spoilers for the first story hour (less spoilers and more along the lines of 'it's already written'). If you want to continue to be surprised for some of the more intense and amazing moments yet to come, you'd likely want to wait on reading...

It was geared more towards the various dozen or so people I shared it with while it was being written (and after it was 'finished'). The comments weren't exactly in line with the effort I was putting forth, so I deemed it more or less a lost cause. I usually write to please people, when I don't...

Not to slight the artistic creativity of our DM, but it went over a little less blatantly than that at the table. It was more along the lines of 'So, who wants the cough up the portal key?'. No one seemed keen on the idea and everyone started to banter back and forth for a moment. So Inva...

I can help you with that quite easily. Sorry about not getting back to you sooner, but I typically only check around on the weekends. Here's the URL for the diary, just remember that it goes quite a bit further into the future than the story hour is currently. I think the diary starts somewhere...
