Mmmmm . . . subtext.

The dice weren't our enemy-- this ***** had SR of thirty-something, and an AC in the high forties. Taran was missing with his best attack on 17s and 18s. It was ridiculous! Even after the hag was feebleminded (and her +12 insight bonus to AC was ruled no longer applicable), he'd still be...

81—Good night, bad Night Elgin Trezler speaks softly with the small and quiet part of himself that lives within the Truth of his god, and holds the knowledge of all beginnings. Is there anything that this lich Alvodar would be willing to return to life for? Yes. Would he come back to...

I wonder what they were trying to salvage down there? (shudders) It's even creepier than going swimming after watching Jaws.

Hilarious. What is that, a +2 Frazetta bonus or something? What happens when the super-intelligent space monkey clings to your leg?

Tricksy updater.

Well, there goes my theories. Nice, Morte. :) Interestingly enough, Prisantha has not made another set of clones.

Hey, thanks for the kind words, Z. I think that there are any number of authors out there who pretty much smoke this story hour, so maybe your local bookstore just sucks? ;) There is also something to the "D&D story" form that even the best fiction can't replicate: the shared experience that...

Hey, hit us with all the character backgrounds at once, and start storyin'! Great stuff, Capellan. But your first post confused me . . . did this show ever exist or is that your fictional out-of-game inspiration for the fictional game? And what system were/are you running?

In this case, it was 19, 17, 15 and 15.

Patchwall 4, CY 593 67—I’ve got dreams, dreams to remember. So intent is Dabus upon his captive, that he fails to fully take in the bountiful warmth and healthy smell of the most perfect glade in the Multiverse. Tritherion’s realm is within the plane of Bytopia, a place where every man and...

Completely correct. I didn't add any text describing his mannerisms, but Piscean was never looking at the PCs at any time-- he kept his eyes on his audience, save for expressions intended for dramatic effect. Well, it doesn't require a genius to realize that Heydricus will probably try to...

Edit--fixed!

Your wish is my command. I compiled the TOEE2 logs along with the LoT logs on my D&D site. You can get the DMs notes for this campaign on that page as well.

A little. They had the numbers, so I think they felt pretty confident--it's awfully hard to kill Heydricus with spells. It wasn't this fight that really scared 'em though, it was the one after the next that really scared 'em. See, if you want to kill Heydricus, you need an undead [SPOILER], a...

Extra large update! Patchwall 4, CY 593 66—There’s no such thing as bad publicity. “Yes, we’ll kill him, but first, we should get our gear,” Prisantha says. “You’re right,” Heydricus admits. “I’ve got a holy spear that needs a wizard-skin sheath. Dabus, can you plane shift us to this...

Hell, no. It sounds like a great campaign, Ashtal-- I wanna play in your game! You just described my Greyhawk game. Kick barbarians to the curb while you're at it. (Oops, I forgot-- very rigid, idealized middle-ages societies didn't have curbs. Kick them to the gutter.) You haven't...

Sadly, I am not that crafty, Elder-Basilsk. The young baronet that the Liberators so profitably returned to life was a Nyrondeese noble, and will probably never show his skinny hide in this story hour again. Kalinstren is the Northernmost Furyondian demense-- it was lost to Iuz during the...

80—Winterbeard The ancient and hoary dwarven recluse known to the people of Storm’s Rise as Winterbeard the Builder has taken something of a shine to Merkatha. This is evident by the fact that he speaks to her at all, if not by his incredulous tone of voice. “Are you stupid, or have you gone...

Patchwall 4, CY 593 65: It’s easier to make the bastards pay when you can find them. Morning comes and goes, and Prisantha is able to discern location on Heydricus’ portable hole. It is within a demi-plane called the “Hyperborean Obverse”, in the dungeons beneath the central tower, on the...
