[QUOTE="Abciximab, post: 5597903, member: 46017"] [CENTER]End of Session 11[/CENTER] A combat free session and yet it is one of the longer entries to date! Yes, there was no actual combat, selling, shopping, talking, etc, but no fighting. Surely a session without violence is a sign of the coming apocalypse. It was still fun though. Thank you Halforc Halfbiscuit, I’m glad to hear my story hour appeals to both halves of your… unique... um… composition. Thank you to peteinmaine (Max) and mundinironhand (Acemodius and Kay’Es) for their contributions as well. Great stuff, though I'm not sure what to make of Ace's entry... Peteinmaine’s reference to his backpack getting heavier is an inside joke. I track treasure and equipment we find in a notebook and of course, Arendel, with his 8 Str, isn’t going to be carrying much. Early on I asked peteinmaine if he had the space for a few items. He said yes and so in my notebook I made a little section that says “On Max”. This list had grown over time to a point where I thought I’d better check his actual encumberance (How much does three Tanglefoot Bags weigh?). Once, when he was inflicted with disease, I said, “Don’t worry, you have a potion of Remove Disease in your pack.” So now whenever Max needs something, someone says, “check your pack, maybe you have one,” and then Max turns to me and says, “Do I?” Sadly, we are losing a player, Gretchen (Chumba) has family obligations and will likely be out of the group for an undetermined amount of time. We actually may have found a couple possible replacements though, when a couple of us went to Free RPG Day at my FLGS for a great “We be Goblins” session. A quick aside as to why RPG’s can be so great. It contains spoilers for We be Goblins. I ran it for my family last night… [Spoiler]In the final encounter my 6 year old son (Playing Poog, a goblin cleric), makes his Spellcraft check and realizes Vorka, the BBEG, is Summoning something. He is grappled by Lord Longtung’s Tongue and cannot reach Vorka. “I throw My Dog-Slicer!” {Roll} Natural 20. {Roll} Confirmed Crit. Vorka’s Concentration Check Fails, Spell Ruined. Now weaponless, my son remembers the Robe of Useful Usefulness he won at the beginning (for conquering the Rusty Earbiter in only three rounds) has a ladder on it. “I attack with the ladder!” and then goes through the rest of the encounter swinging a ladder at his enemies. True goblin craziness, I am so proud of him.[/Spoiler] [/QUOTE]
