    Milo Windby's Collected Story Hour

    Re: Pssst: Milo, Brigit! D'ya think he bought it? Heh heh heh. Nice try Nail! Somehow I don't think we're going to encounter a shop anytime soon, much less those nice freebies. :D

    Milo Windby's Collected Story Hour

    Re: Re: Re: Re: The Gnome [/b] Dang it! Ya caught me! And we were just getting used to Gnail![b] Not yet, but now that you mention it, that's not a bad idea. When you mentioned the flowchart I thought about that post in Wulf's Story Hour depicting Wulf and Nolin from PC's game discussing...

    Rewarding experience for roleplaying?

    Wow! :eek: I didn't realize my simple question would prompt so much discussion. Almost always a good thing. I like many of the ideas presented here. I started using a couple already. I believe I'm going to yoink a few and apply them in my campaign. I'll most likely use an amalgam of ideas...

    Milo Windby's Collected Story Hour

    Re: Re: The Gnome Unfortunately, due to the chemical makeup of thin leads, they will not mix well with thick plots. Rather, they will stay thin until a hunch or two are added. The hunch acts as a catalyst, joining the thick plot and the thin leads into a completed story. As for simmering...

    Milo Windby's Collected Story Hour

    The Lost City – Part 2 (session 29) The birdmen continued their bizarre dance around the nest. They pecked the ground looking for imaginary birdseed as the heroes looked on in bemusement. Brigit made ready to drive them off with her axe before Mazi spoke up. “Let’s try a softer approach...

    Rewarding experience for roleplaying?

    Not a bad idea at all, Lady. It would actually help encourage note-taking. My players are pretty new at this and one is playing only because everyone else is, so any motivation I can find is a good thing.

    That could be it. Thanks Dwarf!

    Rewarding experience for roleplaying?

    I know I read someone's formula for rewarding experience for roleplaying in D20 a long while ago. I can't seem to find the thread anymore. Any suggestions from the masses? What methods do you use and how well do they mesh with the standard experience rewards for combats and traps set in the DMG?

    Milo Windby's Collected Story Hour

    The Lost City – part 1 (session 28) Milo struggled with disorientation for a few moments. Everyone was accounted for, even the stranger that helped them during the climactic battle in the temple. The others took a few extra seconds to get their bearings after the parting psionic shout from...

    Milo Windby's Collected Story Hour

    D'oh! Sorry folks. That last post was done by yours truly. The pitfalls of being married to one of the other players. :)

    Milo Windby's Collected Story Hour

    Temple of Elemental Evil – fini (session 28) CLAP…CLAP…CLAP…CLAP ”Congratulations!” came a voice from the far end of the hall, ”You’ve done far better than I hoped!” Milo peered at the figure standing so far away. The man stood upright in dark robes, clapping sarcastically at the party. He...

    Milo Windby's Collected Story Hour

    Turns out Milo is a liar. I'm cleric 8, rogue 3. No flame strike yet. D'oh! Thanks for the compliment Nail! It means a lot to me. I went muuuuuch more freestyle with this fight. I had hoped it would flow a little better. At the very least it's a change from the usual structured fights...

    Milo Windby's Collected Story Hour

    Thanks Krellic! Just so's you know, I've edited the post. I made a few grammatical and temporal errors and it wasn't quite as snappy as I liked. Just minor changes though. We play this Tuesday. Finally Milo will have flame strike!

    Milo Windby's Collected Story Hour

    Ugh, it's long. Sorry about that. But this was our whole session, this one battle. It was intense and quite scary at parts. I think we'll be seeing some interesting things happen between Kellah and Jeremiah. But who in heaven's name was clapping?

    Milo Windby's Collected Story Hour

    Temple of Elemental Evil - part 62 (session 27) "On second thought, Jeremiah," Milo said, looking over the gaunt barbarian, "You'd better give that potion to Mazi. I think you're going to need a hit from the old staff of healing after all." Milo drew the gnarled staff of unmarked wood from...

    Milo Windby's Collected Story Hour

    It was bad. I'm starting the write up now. To preface this bit of slaughter I need to note what Frog asked us before the session. It was something along the lines of: "Do you want the fast way out of the temple or the long way?" Future note to players: if the DM asks if you want to go the...

    Re: Re: TH' Boards Finally let me on! Yup, PCGen before it was castrated. I've been afraid to DL any updates since I heard that WotC cracked down on them. Perhaps, but I think it's going to stay as it is. We'll chalk it up to her dwarven heritage and unusual luck in finding complex traps...

    Wulf's Collected Story Hour -- FINAL UPDATE 12/25

    Do I detect a bit of the Defender peeking through here? How often do you get to haul out those abilities Wulf? I seriously considered taking some levels in the PrC in our old game but never took the plunge. How many levels do you have in it now?

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

    Cats don't wear pants... Seriously though, does this look like the climax of a years-long, enormous, intricate story arc or is Sagiro planning some more RBDMness to spring on you guys at the last minute, thus prolonging the story?
