I've had players use that one before in my own games. :) And yet they howl when the villains of the piece pull the same kinds of shennanigans...

For some reason, this bit reminds me of the section on Haven, in the movie Serenity. Nice writing. :)

I've had players complain that I'm being "stingy" before, but the one that takes the cake... I had a player -- experienced, but new to our group -- who came in during a moderately long arc in which there was very little treasure. Granted, there was a HUGE haul at the end of it, but the players...

Heh. Got to love the wand. Reminds me of an old Dragon Magazine comic. The wizard is standin in the foreground with a smoking wand. As you go deeper into the panel, there's a giant with a hole through his chest, a castle tower behind him with a perfectly round hole in it, a mountain behind...

Lol, got to remember that one. Party looks into a room and sees a group of skeletons. "Pfft, this will be a snap. No need to waste any spells on buffing. Charge!" Five of the six die in a round or two, but the last one... That's a recipe for a BEATING, right there... :) And a male versus...

It was a water elemental hydra, facing level 1 characters. I didn't realize you were playing a 1E/2E hybrid, so I was kind of shocked that a 1st level party could fight it. Then again, I'm still kind of suprised that a 1st level party could fight it now that I know you're playing an older...

Is anyone else amused that Jayne, River, and Kaylee are in Red Shirts... and Wash and Book are NOT? Made me chuckle, anyway.

I met my wife when she was engaged to someone else. But I wasn't about to let a cute gamer girl slip past me, especially when she and I had more chemistry than she and her fiancee *ever* did. Maybe that makes me a #&@*, but if that's the case so be it. If you want it, you've got to be...

I really enjoyed the purification of the pearl being the real key to the fight. Also, the water-elemental-hydra was a very cool foe. Either the party level is higher than I thought or you're using some unusual stats -- do you mind sharing? And I like the celebration. Always nice to make...

I can't be the only one that read the title and heard the Muppets in my head... "It's time for another adventure with PIGS... IN.... SPAAAAAAAACE!"

I appreciate all the help from everyone! For story reasons (and since I'm the only arcanist in the party) I'm going to eventually MC wizard and warlock, so stats are pretty easy. Orryn ended up looking a lot like what jbear posted. We'll see how he fares tonight, when we get beyond initial...

Not to mention that the Church of the Silver Flame has a wonderful dichotomy built right into it (in 3e, anyway, haven't read 4e Eberron books). The Flame is all those wonderful Couatl souls who selflessly sacrificed themselves to destroy/bind the Rakshasa Rajahs. Of course, one of those...

This would be a fun thing to spring on some groups, like mine. (Other players would hate it, no matter how temporary the effect might be..) I can just see getting back from saving the world on the Supersonic PrinJet, kicking back with a cold beer, catching some much needed sleep... and then...

Recurring villains for the win. I always like to have the masterminds get away (when they can, I don't cheat for 'em). The players are always so stoked to finally nail down someone that's been plauging them for a while... :)

I don't remember seeing this feat in the PHBs... What does it do? And where can I find it? Asking for two out-of-source feats is probably really pushing it, but I can always try... ;)

Some quick background -- without trying to start anything, I'm not the world's biggest 4e fan. So my rules knowledge is light, limited to a six-month campaign when the PHB was the only book. Regardless, I've been persuaded to try it again with a bunch of friends. And I'd prefer not to...

I'm not familiar at all with their standalone modules. However, I really enjoy the PF Adventure Paths. The best ones (IMO, obviously) are Rise of the Runelords and Kingmaker. Rise of the Runelords is a *classic* adventure path, taking the PCs through a lot of different types of adventures --...

Yeah, update! And to answer your question, Alaria is my favorite character - love how she was introduced to the storyline - although Trihna is rapidly gaining favor. :) Also, just have to comment that I love how you describe spells in this SH.

FINALLY. I'm pretty sure at this point, we're in serious danger of author-existance-failure before the series finishes, though. :P

Just have to comment how amused I was at this one. I recently played through Red Hand of Doom. Our party was a LOT lower on the moral spectrum, but had reasons to help things along anyway. For instance, my CN cleric (who had designs on lichdom) had heard rumors of the Ghost Lord and was...
