    Parting Gifts: Ch 1 - Dusk - IC

    The halfling's smile is surprisingly warm, given his recent circumstance. He grips Heassellekh's shoulder and allows her to help him sit up. Her awkwardness has long been a source of her endearment to him. Such an old soul, and so in need of solace. He turns to look at the corpses of...

    World War Z

    Well, I took a middle path. It's difficult to represent that specific sort knowledge in a game system without making it the primary focus, and it really shouldn't be. Not in this case. In any case, here's the first pass. Name: Alan L Age: 35 Player: Brother Allard Concept: Myself Virtue...

    World War Z

    I'm working on one now, thanks to DarwinofMind. Questions: in real life I'm a biosciences librarian in a major research university in the US. I have explicit liaison relationships with researchers working on third world diseases, and in my previous job that was my primary clientèle - meaning I...

    (3/4) Traveller T20 - The Soldiers Sons. Game started, but still recruiting

    Well, it's an interesting premise, and although it's been admittedly pretty slow, there's been some good stuff in here. I've quite enjoyed it. If you want to wrap it up, however, I can respect that. Thanks for running it.

    Parting Gifts: Ch 1 - Dusk - IC

    In one moment, the once-jocular halfling is lying cold and gray on the marble slab, stretched out in a grim and pitiful tableau. In the next, he takes a sudden, shuddering breath. His blood perfusing, his color improves as his body is wracked by a terrible fit of coughing - dry and dusty. The...

    Parting Gifts

    Ooo! Hey, look! I'm alive again. Don't know how I missed that. In any case, whatever spells Yolo lost, he didn't prepare True Resurrection today, and will wait until he can prepare it before raising Grandfather. I'd also be happy to keep going. This has been an enjoyable game, although I...

    Aluf, AC 26, HP: 141/172 Grinding his teeth in his fury, Aluf knows that this is not the time to berate himself. The battle came upon them suddenly, and was instantly out of his control, but a good general controls the field. Always. There are no excuses. To have been ambushed at all is a...

    Aluf, AC 26, HP: 172/172 Perfectly at home in the tumult of battle, Aluf swiftly shifts direction in his armor, graceful as a dancer in full plate, and stamps his foot, bringing the full weight of his massive weapon to bear. Full attack on #2. If he drops, any remaining attacks will be...
