Hilarious. I wish I could take credit for all of this. Detten's player and I sat down and talked through his intro, and he wrote it up. I tweaked it a little, but it's mostly Jeff's work. When I read the "humped the nerf" line I almost died. I even told him, "Dude, people are going to be...

CLAIM JUMPING - PART I A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away ... Detten reclined casually in his chair across from his supervisor, Emik Rehte. The burly alien Emik had wrinkled gray warty skin, a face lined with four pairs of stubby breathing tubes, and was nervously drumming his...

Thanks for the info, Horatio.

You guys are sooooo right on. Role-playing ... let's examine the word. Role: A part, or character, performed by an actor; hence, a part or function taken or assumed by any one. By playing a role, you are taking the part or function of a character. Some characters are skilled diplomats...

This is off-topic, but I'm kind of new to this side of the boards. I've had my own Story Hour thread going for about two weeks now and I've since become active in posting on other people's threads. Having been a lurker over in the Story Hour forum for about a year, I can say with some...

Hilarious, yet a feeble attempt to tide over your diehard, rabid fans, Doc. Play and update more often or I may forget that "no disintegrations" order ...

That's all great news! Looking forward to more updates, plus hopefully a story hour generated from your Star Wars foray.

I also was struck by that introduction as being a little odd. Nothing against the Big 4, heck, we all know and love 'em. But if I were new to the Story Hour forum and came across this, I'd be likely to just check out the recommended ones and avoid the others. I don't have a dog in the...

Whether a Jedi's eyes are open or closed, blindfolded or otherwise, (s)he blocks blaster bolts the same way. The eye could never see a blaster bolt coming, transmit the image to the mind, and the mind then order the arm to move quickly enough to deflect the blaster bolt. The Jedi "just knows"...

This is a neat idea ... looking forward to future installments!

Sorry folks, no new material yet, but I did want to show off my new signature banner (down at the bottom) and see what you think. I will reveal that soon you will meet the next of our PC heroes, the gruff explorer and prospector Detten Harcrov. Here's a sneak peek at Detten:

Yup. We killed a dragon. You know, it strikes me that the most amazing thing about this first session is that despite the abundant clues, we (or at least Gann) did not actually expect to face a dragon. Sure, that crazy trapper warned us about the dragon. Heck, the pseudodragon's scouting...

I thought I felt a strange disturbance in the Force ... another Star Wars Story Hour! Excellent!

Bounty hunter needs update, badly.

Yes, Tas, he said DRAGON! This session was just too cool. I'm hoping we get to play again soon.

I know I hinted at some major updates this weekend, but due to a certain unforeseen announcement that you are all well aware of by now, I will probably be otherwise occupied until June 21. I will post if I can before then. Hey, this Story Hour is only one week old and I've already posted 6...

Um, actually, only one so far. The only PC you've met is Jirair Gann. You'll soon meet others, including the likes of Detten Harcrov and Jaros Gann, but I'm not going to give anything away about them yet. I like having a lot of fleshed out NPCs in the game. Don't worry, I have a feeling...

Thanks Horacio. Let's see ... at least 4, probably 5, maybe 7. How's that for an answer? I know 4 for sure, and probably 5 (I'm pretty sure cthuluftaghn's son is going to play, right cthulu?). If my wife and cthulutftaghn's wife jump in that will make 7, but so far the ladies have been...

Thanks Madriel. It's a big galaxy, and there is certainly more to it than Empire and Rebellion. From crime lords, corporate conglomerates and bounty hunters to pirates, alien monsters and the Dark Side, the Star Wars game offers an abundance of challenges for players. That's not to say...

At last, a hero hell-bent on smiting evil! All hail Gann Tolar, conquering hero! For those who have not guessed already, I am Gann Tolar. I simply switched my username when I began posting my Star Wars - Tales from the Outer Rim story hour. Gann is something of a departure for me. I usually...
