    OOC: Skeleton Quest - Origins - Possible Reboot

    Yea, I'm pretty much set in my character's actions, until the DM advances things. However, what I see is Tailspinner: Last Seen: 11-17-05 (03:11 PM). :(

    Harry Potter IV - Spoilers welcome!

    I think it's along the lines of the Olympics, World Cup, or something. In the wizarding world, you're probably looking at a smaller population, so you wouldn't be forgotten as quickly. And, I think that Harry did win, but no one cares. Cedric died, and the dark lord returned; that pretty much...

    LOST Wednesday 11/16/05 {Spoilers for this ep and previous eps ONLY!}

    He gets jealous of the return of Bernard, kidnaps Rose for his own, and uses the numbers to control the Security System(tm) to wipe out all opposition to him on the island. Either that, or I've just been awake too long.

    Maddgoth’s Castle (restart?)

    This could be fun. I'd like to go in for a rogue with an emphasis on dungeoneering. I'll try to get stats and the rest up sometime in the next day or so.

    "Well, if we're moving, let me near the front of this group. I'll try to see if I notice any signs of passing from whoever was here last... just don't muck up the trail, if there is one." "Come along, Barnes," he says to his rat.

    Is Lavos a Terrasque?

    Just meant that he would be extremely high on the CR scale. You could pick any very large number, ask if it was an appropriate CR, and the answer would probably be "yes." CR 55 may as well be the same as CR 1,000, as far as players/dm's are concerned.

    Is Lavos a Terrasque?

    Yes.

    Harry Potter IV - Spoilers welcome!

    Actually, I think that this was the intent of the movie. Voldemort is back in power, they're encountering things that are beyond their capability to handle, and are entering into some extremely "not fun" territory. It's a wake-up call to the dangers present in the (fictional) real world.

    Whirling Blade

    But doesn't poison rub off on the first attack? So, it would only affect those hit by the weapon until it was expended.

    Whirling Blade

    I would rule that only basic attacks and Power Attacks are allowed. That seems to best fit the spirit of the spell. I would allow two-handed damage, but would probably impose the restriction that the spell then becomes a full-round action (not one full round, where it takes effect just before...

    Has anyone read Eragon?

    I only managed to get through one chapter in the book before I tossed it. The writing seemed horrible; on a kiddified level like Rowling, but with none of her talent. In one early part, a wizard is described as "blowing up quarter-mile patches of forest," and the character names look like...

    (OOC) FR Adventure - Vampires of Waterdeep! [FULL]

    Ok, I forgot about the spellbook costs, thought Boccob's meant it was all free. Spellbook trimmed down, free spells and paid-for spells accounted for, some equipment exchanged to cover costs, and material/focus costs factored in. Updated with description and personality blocks. Character...

    Harry Potter IV - Spoilers welcome!

    I saw the midnight showing last night. The movie was great. Visual effects were superb, including the dragon, merfolk, Voldemort's face, and the Priori Incantatum, which was almost as cool as the Expecto Patronum effect from PoA. The acting keeps getting better. Fleur Delacour was...

    Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire reviews starting to roll in

    Just got back from the midnight showing, and I felt the movie was spectacular. Great acting, the funny parts were really funny, and the serious parts (especially THE serious part) were handled with a lot of care. The theatre went from rolling with laughter, to absolute holding-your-breath...

    "I agree, we should be on the move. If any wants to try to find the ones who did this, I may be able to trace their steps, if they didn't try to hide their trail too much."

    "Also a good idea. My name is Averey, and I am a devotee to the natural world. My newly-acquired ... companion, here, I shall name... Barnes."

    IC: Skeleton Quest - Origins

    Averey, Druid Speaking for the first time, Averey slowly says, "I don't know much about the arcane, or divine for that matter, but I do know that I have some questions. First, why are we dead? Second, why are we not STILL dead? Third, who are all you?"

    IC: Skeleton Quest - Origins

    Averey, Druid Green light flares in the eyes of a skeleton who is stained with exposure to the elements. As he becomes aware, he glaces around the room, seeing the other skeletons lying around, with a few moving already. So, even death is not the end for me. Seeing the scavenging rat at...
