Sagiro’s Story Hour, Part 377 Scuttle The storeroom in which the Company has arrived is uninteresting, but the same came cannot be said for their location in general. From outside the room come shouts, screams, and other familiar sounds of battle. Weapons clank, men grunt, and in the...

The Bloodseer was an orcish leader who helped the party kill Restimar -- a red-armored servant of the Emperor who was impersonating various humanoid figures-of-legend. After Restimar (masquerading as the Chun Aggrat, a legendary orcish war-leader) was killed, the Bloodseer turned on the Company...

Sagiro’s Story Hour, Part 376 Quantum Leap A map of the Leaping Circles? The entire Company lets out a long “oooooooohhhhh” in unison, just as if they were still watching Nellig’s performance on the mote-phone. Corriv gives a ghostly chuckle. “That sounds like you have some interest in the...

Assuming I ever get my draft of Book One whipped into shape, I hope to find an agent willing to take me on. If that fails (which is likely, just going by the numbers), I'll look more seriously into self-publishing options.

I fixed the first one, but I must be too dense to see where the typo is in the second.

Hope springs eternal! Sagiro’s Story Hour, Part 375 The Musician and the Scholar The general opinion among the Company is that the black-and-white being is an agent working on behalf of both the Sister Gods, who appears when someone uses power that neither of Them wish wielded by others...

Thanks as always to StevenAC for the fantastic .PDF’s! Regarding the silhouettes: I told the players about them after the fact, since they were unlikely to find out in-game. They were a peaceful race of semi-intelligent creatures who fed on the light motes, but needed to alter them somewhat to...

Sagiro’s Story Hour, Part 373 Silhouettes “Are you okay?” Ernie rushes over to Dranko’s side. The half-orc half sits and half falls to the stone floor. “No… no…” While the others crowd around in concern, Dranko relates his unusual experience. “You understood the voices?” asks Kibi. “Doesn’t...

On the subject of Irrational Games' closing, I don't have much to say that hasn't already been written. I had left almost four years to the day before they shut down, so I don't have any "inside scoop" juicy details about the business. I will say that I wish everyone there the best going...

Sagiro’s Story Hour, Part 372 A Killing Machine Ernie casts magic circle vs. evil in case the Essence is stronger inside the temple. For a moment after that the Company just stands there at the precipice, gazing down upon the huge cone that is Temple of the Sisters. Dranko jumps off. The...

Since I posted last night, this thread has gotten over a 1000 views, but only 12 people have gone to my "do you read this story hour" Google Form. In case you missed it at the start of the previous post, here's the link: Do you read this Story Hour? Remember, only go to this form once, so I...

Hi everyone! Can you do me a big favor? As I mentioned previously, I have finally bit the proverbial bullet and started the project of turning my campaign into Epic Fantasy Novels(tm). (I'm actually done the initial draft of Book #1, and I'm guessing the entire thing will be 3-5 books total...

Yes to both! A big Aravis-related plot point was coming, and Aravis's player had to miss that session, which (as you'll see in a later update), worked out quite well from a storytelling perspective. And here, have another update. Sagiro’s Story Hour, Part 370 The Stribe The tunnel from...

Sagiro’s Story Hour, Part 369 Angry Dreamers The geyser of Earth Magic recedes into the ground, leaving the Croaking Oracle blinking rapidly in confusion. It clearly doesn’t understand why it spoke, and none in the Company, Kibi included, has any idea how or why a blast of Earth Magic goosed...

I apologize for posting without an update, but I wanted to note, briefly, that as is common, this is a particularly hectic time of year here in the Sagiro household. As such, the next update will probably not occur until January sometime. But I'm still chipping away. Merry Christmas and a...

I believe everyone in the party was exactly 20th level during this fight. There were several factors that made it an easy battle for the party: - A Chichimec is 'only' a CR 21 creature, and I took away its wail of the banshee power and replaced it with energy drain. - The party has 7...

Sure. Tarsos was a red-armored warrior who escaped from the Battle of Verdshane -- the battle where the Emperor's invasion was foiled by Aravis's use of the Crosser's Maze. Tarsos later joined up with Meledien and the two of them stormed Naslund, Graveyard of the Gods, where they stole Wards...

To gerg and Anxe, thanks for coming back to the story! I appreciate what an undertaking it must be, reading the entire thing from its humble beginning. To Anxe: you'll be hearing about Rosetta in the next few updates. :devil: A general note: after this update, there are 20 runs remaining to...

Sagiro’s Story Hour, Part 367 Q & A Slowly, Ernie opens the door from behind which the snoring is coming. There is (unsurprisingly) someone asleep in a bed, a creature of the same race as the doomed priests from the Temple. His skin is a mossy green, heavily wrinkled. He is eight feet tall and...

It hasn't been Card Hunter eating most of my time, though we're obviously excited that we're so close to shipping. Rather it's been a combination of family vacations, dealing with kids' back-to-school stuff, reading novels, and working on the novelization of this very story. (Now over 80k words...
