Sounds kind of cool, except that I ran Age of Worms not that long ago, so I've already done a D&D version of zombie apocalypse... Might still check it out.

I think these days it's the dated layout of the books, more so than the "dated" rules that push me away from palladium games. I went back to some of my rifts books the other day, and the text was so dense and hard to sift through compared to today's rpgs that I couldn't look at it for more than...

I wish this poll wasn't so binary. I'm not sure what to check for some of them since we didn't finish them. I ran Lost Mines to completion. I ran a lot of the material in Princes of the Apocalypse and essentially finished that adventure. I played through most of Tyranny of Dragons, but that game...

I am CyberDave's GM (for context). When I first was reading this power, I think I was misreading it a little, specifically this line: "This feature reveals which of your favored enemies are present, their numbers, and the creatures’ general...

Unfortunately, I have no journal's to post for what turned out to be the final session of the campaign. In this final session the heroes continued their exploration of the Shadow Tomb and dealt with some more nasty traps and obstacles. However, they had the misfortune of stumbling into the lair...

Wherein the heroes find themselves in Acererak's Shadow Tomb and continue their explorations. Melek's journal: Smar has been incredibly despondent for the last couple of days. The encounter with that undead monstrosity has obviously come close to unhinging his mind. Or perhaps something...

We left the entry tower and stepped out into the cold black night of the Shadowfell. Moil must have been a singularly impressive sight centuries ago when it was still a living and vibrant city. Even today, after centuries of neglect, it inspires a sense of awe. We looked upon series of dark...

From Melek: It sounds hideously cold blooded to say that one of the first things that I did after notifying my companions of the tragedy that befell us was to dive into Bella’s ritual books. Unfortunately, there was little choice. We desperately needed to have access to some of the magics...

GM Note: This was a landmark game session, in that after 42 sessions of play Bella finally meets her end. Here's Melek's journal from session #42. I've decided that it is time to start recording the tale of our adventures for posterity. While previously I'd often taken the time to quietly...

The following is Smar's take on Session #41 It is strange, thinking back on the events that happened. I have lost days of life. I am told I made a good hall ornament in that time. We entered into the mountain of Turak’s tribe. It was even worse than I had imagined. His people were completely...

This is a recount of Session #41 from Bella's point of view. Session 41: Plan ‘T’ It’s been a bad day. Turak has been acting strangely since we got here. The dumb cow has been blissfully silent but uncharacteristically moody. He pushes us forward constantly, at first I believed it was...

Session #41 DMs Note: This was by far the most deadly session we've had thus far in the campaign. The session consisted of three character deaths and one petrification. Nasty. PCs Melek (level 16,Tiefling, hybrid warlock/wizard) Bella (level 17, Changeling rogue with a touch of sorcerer)...

Here are two journals from Smar's POV regarding the last couple of sessions. The spirits weave strange wills. I once told myself that I could control my bloodlust. I once told myself that I would never hurt an innocent. I am not sure if I followed those rules today. My pack’s plan was good. We...

Bella's journal Session 40: I’m just a Girl The tunnel shakes, collapsing around us as we run hand in hand for our lives. The cleric runs with easy strides that I am envious of him as he pulls me ahead and away from danger. The hand that grips mine is strong, and he does not look at me...

Session #40 PCs Melek (level 16,Tiefling, hybrid warlock/wizard) Bella (level 17, Changeling rogue with a touch of sorcerer) Turak (level 16, Minotaur, Warden) Ardyn (level 16, Elf, Ranger) Smar (level 16, Shifter, Ranger) Corvin (level 16, Human, Cleric) this session Corvin is retired to be...

Session #39 Party: Bella, changeling rogue 16 Melek, tiefling wizard/warlock 16 Turak, minotaur warden 16 Smar, shifter ranger 16 Ardyn, elf ranger 16 Corvin, human cleric 16 Melek's journal: After a brief rest and much divine healing from Corvin, we start to discuss our options. Clearly...

This is Smar's journal, also regarding game session #38 Spirits, is this truly what you sent me here to do? Last I spoke to you I spoke through writing. Now, I silently whisper to you as I rest after fighting against my own kind again. I whisper, and I pray for a response. Spirits, you sent me...

This is Melek's journal for session #38 I believe. Currently the party consists of: Bella (changeling rogue with a touch of sorcerer, level 15) Melek (tiefling, warlock/wizard, level 15) Corvin (human, cleric of Odin 14) Turak (minotaur, warden 14) Smar (shifter, ranger (hunter) 14) Arden...

This is my first journal from Smar, the shifter ranger. It is also regarding game session 37. I remember when Ardyn first taught me letters. I wouldn’t be able to write this without those lessons. I had not seen Ardyn in many a moon, until earlier today. Finally, Ardyn has called upon his turn...

Session #37, Melek’s journal: After managing to defeat about half the Cyclops we decided that it was time to retreat from the remaining half and regroup a little, so we headed back upstairs and holed up in the small cave above the main entrance where the Cyclops would find it difficult to come...
