    Lone Wolf sends Cease & Desist letters to anyone using the term 'Army Builder'

    Wow. Long thread. But interesting. I used to think that unlike copyright and patent law (for which IMO the scales are in the middle of tipping over), trademark law was still a case of the Good outweighing the Evil. Now... I'm not so sure. At least, threads like this indicate the laws and...

    Vagrant Hearts (Season 1: Complete), The Smuggler's War (Writing: Episode VII)

    ... It's going to be a loooong week and a half, is all I can say!

    The Doomed Bastards SH: Reader Input Poll (decide how the story ends)

    Simply awesome story hour, Lazybones! :D I'm all for the rally option, but regarding the sacrifice option: what, Duke Aerim isn't mighty enough to be a candidate? :p Letellia, also, if she can be resurrected (or secretly saved herself via some Contingency). Hey, they've been guarding the...

    The Doomed Bastards: Reckoning (story complete)

    Whew! I hope after all they've been through that a "burial detail" now includes burning the bodies to ashes. Do these things create spawn like other big undead? Imagine fighting a pack of those things! :eek: (though if it's some kind of uber-ghoul, will it instead be any infected survivors...

    The Lightbringers' Expedition to Castle Ravenloft - updated 12/19

    I'm a chronic lurker, but I've been greatly enjoying your story. I definitely was not expecting Jade to come back as a giant cro codile. Given Ashlynn came back as a troglodyte, it almost makes me wonder if there's a higher than normal risk of reptilian reincarnation in ravenloft... :)

    Aeon (updated 10/9/14)

    Re invisibility - If Ortwine was merely /invisible/, I believe that magic ends upon attack; Iua could then see Ortwine to attack and in turn be /hypnotised/. Re 2nd level spells - the "power" of spells is a combination of spell level, caster level, casting ability score, and other modifiers; I...

    The Doomed Bastards: Reckoning (story complete)

    Uh oh, looks like they're screwed (again). Anyone else thinking "jump into the river?" Of course, the folks in plate armor wouldn't swim very well. :heh: Really wondering how they're going to get through this one... thankyou and please keep up the wonderful nail-biting anticipation, Lazybones!

    Sagiro's Story Hour Returns (new thread started on 5/18/08)

    Followup: reflecting upon my faux pas here compared to my local group's chatter... do folks have any techniques for improving immersion / cutting down on "stats talk" at the gaming table? Does Sagiro's table have a "tip jar" or something?

    Null Shadows

    A full description of Passwall can be found here. In brief, it "creates a passage" through walls, which disappears at the end of the spell's duration. It's not clear (to me) whether the passage is inherently magical and the wall is still actually "there", or if the wall is being temporarily...

    Sagiro's Story Hour Returns (new thread started on 5/18/08)

    I think some spellcasters would enjoy an encounter with null shadows - on their terms, that is: to test spells with the critters from a position of safety. If such a thing exists, of course... otherwise, yes - run! Sorry about mentioning OOC stats here. Won't happen again. Cleaned/moved my...

    Null Shadows

    In my excitement to discuss Null Shadows, I forgot I shouldn't have discussed their stats in the story thread. Thus moving the thread (hope I'm not just pushing the foot further in): While fun as an intellectual exercise and to spring on overconfident PCs :p as both a GM and a player it...

    Null Shadows

    In Sagiro's Story Hour, one type of creature that the PCs encountered were Null Shadows, excellently scary critters and fun for GMs to spring on players used to monsters that bleed when you hit them with shiny swords and spells. For those folks who manage to tear themselves away from said story...
