Also just noticed that "Ivellios" is one of the sample elven names in the D&D 5E Basic Rules PDF. Coincidence, or a clever fan?

I just finished reading the finished Story Hour, and it's a very bittersweet thing. I've been reading (and re-reading) this story in its incomplete state for over a decade now, and it's been an endless font of inspiration for my own game and a fantastic story in its own right. Now it's over, and...

Brilliant stuff! Keep going. It'll be neat to see how they get out of this one...

Uh-oh -- a villain "dying" by falling dramatically into the water and being swept away. You know what that means...

Ah, for the days when gambling was a skill... Keep it up! You write very well.

Some days you just can't get rid of a bomb.

Must be nice to have eyes again! It's been a long, long time.

You're quite right -- it was partway through session #5 that I threw up my hands at the bickering. After slogging through that, the rest of it is much better. Keep posting, please; I'm looking forward to more!

I'm a new reader (haven't read OOTFP either). Thoughts: Pro: You're an excellent writer and a very clever DM -- two rare qualities that are even rarer to find together. Well done! The links, in particular, are a very nice touch for communicating the setting. Con: I found that I had to stop...

That is the second-best system for stirge removal that I've seen. (First is iron body and a tennis racket, of course.) Thanks for the update!

Excellent! Nothing like a mentally disturbed halfling to round out a party. Wouldn't find him as a pregen. Looking forward to the rest of this!

This is brilliant stuff. Keep it coming! (Atrices?)

Excellent work! You write good flavour text. The only thing that sticks out is Phantom Visage, which seems way too powerful -- a rogue would get sneak attack damage on every hit. Maybe something weaker but equally flavourful, like... hmmm... Cloak of Shadows (21st level): You are perpetually...

Excellent work! Might want to put some size limit on the bariaur's "knock prone" ability, though -- don't want a bariaur player saying "I charge the gargantuan red dragon and knock it down!" Also, the cranium rats should probably scale more nastily as their numbers increase. Other than that, it...

Thanks! Fixed. I'm worried that Defender's Finesse might be one of those things that you need to playtest to see whether they're over-powerful. In retrospect, I think option #2 is definitely over the top, so I'm going to go with the "allowing at-will powers" approach for now.
