Journal entry 2/9/07 Dear Grandfather, Remembering your story of how you first lost your beloved axe, panic almost made me snap out of my cold rage. As it returned from wherever it had gone, I knew not whether this was pure chance or a test of the gods on my resolve towards the quest and all...

It's not "abusive" when there's a specific substitution level created for halfling druids for JUST that reason: to cast things like Jump or Spider Climb on the animal companion mount. Sheesh. (Just a little input from an "abusive" player) 8)

Journal entry 1/26/07 Dearest Pepa, I proceeded further into the mansion, intent on protecting Madu’s servants from the atrocities running around. Upon coming upon some more of them shambling up to me, I came to realize that I could not be positive they were undead, so I tried to subdue them...

Journal entry 1/12/07 Dear Grandfather, Nearly copperless but happy, I have purchased a great many supplies for the repairs to the temple of Elishar. I made sure to buy enough that there would be a fair supply of extra materials plus the tools left over for the caretakers to have when I’m...

GM's input... Excellent writeup, Sniffles! I have to say, that when I introduced the "stones", I had many, many, MANY scenarios in mind for what might happen with them. FWIW, this group is the most intelligent bunch of PCs I've ever met, and it's difficult to do anything without them being...

Sorry Jubilee, I didn't see your response. Yes, you are quite observant AND correct in that this is the first time it's ever been mentioned that his grandfather has passed. He has been writing letters in a journal to his dead grandfather.

Journal entry 12/15/06 Dearest Grandfather, Amidst the splendor of the city and our newfound wealth, I have been untrue to myself. I have just spent more money on a bottle of wine and some incense for a magic spell than I would ever have thought possible. True, I have donated to the Covenant...

Journal entry 12/01/06 Dearest Grandfather, We appeared atop the minarets of the temple of Lathanul, who is Lathander in this part of the Realm. Our sudden arrival caused some distractions amongst the faithful down below, for which I am truly sorry. To keep my mind on task, I used our newly...

Journal entry 11/03/06 Dearest Grandfather, The final hour of night was upon us. Almost cursing my keen eyesight, I could see many, many dark shapes crawling along the walls of the immense cavern we travelled through. Even from afar, I could see Set's monstrous serpentine shape writhing...

Journal entry 10/6/06 Well Pepa, it begins. They are telling us that the first and last hours of the Twelve hours of Night are the hardest. And that Set and his minions will attempt to divert the barge to prevent the sun from rising again. I determined to set myself near the rudder, to...

Journal entry 9/22/06 Dear Grandfather, Well Pepa, I don't know what to say. Words fail me. Before I could put quill to parchment about our meeting with Anukhileal, we were here on the…well, I'll get to that in a moment. Truth be told, I can't remember nary a thing about the fight with the...

As the GM... I don't normally correct someone's journal entry/diary/letter home, but I wanted to clarify one thing: Father Merrick did not say exactly how he lost his blessing. Just that up 'til this point he's been the only one to lose one. He created the ritual to try to figure out how to...

Journal entry 7/28/06 Dear Pepa, I approached what turned out to be some sort of mummies with Hammer and Brimstone at the ready, Liadan close behind. I moved quickly in the hopes that whoever they were wrapping up might still be saved, as there was evidence that people had arrived here not...

Journal entry 7/14/06 Dear Pepa, Many things have happened in the last week. I spent the 2 days following the battle in Brimstone Keep working on the hammer you made for me. It had become slightly damaged, so I took what skills I have and managed to put it back in working order. I...

Journal entry 6/16/06 Dear Grandfather, Upon hewing my way through the door, Nekaya rushed in to confront the priestess but was waylaid by some of her guards. They had overthrown tables and pews as a barricade whilst the priestess donned her armor and finished her prayer to Bane. As Erim...
