    Seravin's Tales of the Night Below (Two Updates this Week - 07/24/07)

    Actually, he was right. The first question hadn't been formulated correctly. If my players can determine that a creature IS inherently evil-aligned, then killing it should be easier for them, not harder. Detect Evil doesn't quite cut it, else anyone who becomes evil and is powerful enough to...

    Seravin's Tales of the Night Below (Two Updates this Week - 07/24/07)

    Pleasure :) You're correct. My fault, I formulated it badly. Fixed now.

    To Find a King (updated 06/26)

    Welcome on-board to the new readers. May you enjoy our journey together :) Actually, I debated for a long time whether I should include all the PC's dialogues (thank God for audio tapes!) or concentrate on the action. In the end, I decided that what made this group special was not so much...

    Spot-on! ;) Great minds think alike, it seems, for I came to the same conclusion a short time later after mulling over it. Long story short, she found herself caught in her own trap and was forced to go back on her stance (well, somewhat..). It was either that or I would have whispered my...

    To Find a King (updated 06/26)

    Pleasure to be of help. As long as it isn't a spoiler (and, sometimes, even if it is), I'll be happy to answer any and all questions about my game. Getting feedback from other DM/players that way is invaluable to me. Thank you. No need to keep this SH on the 1st page on a permanent basis...

    To Find a King (updated 06/26)

    What can I say.. I'll strive to make you unhappier then ;) Thank you! :cool: That's a very good question and a tough one as well. Let me try to explain.. When I decided to rework the entire clerical system, I wanted to create a ‘hybrid’ of the 2nd and the 3rd editions. The spheres of the...

    Is the Story Hour Forum on Life Support?

    No, just that he must be an alien to manage that feat :p (but an alien who writes darn good SH, so we'll overlook the fact ;) )

    Is the Story Hour Forum on Life Support?

    I can agree at least to that. Couldn't have said it any better :cool: With respect, I must disagree. If that was so easy, don't you think Sep (just an example) would have updated a dozen times since last November? Writing is easy. Writing something worth reading isn't. At least, to me. Of...

    And I don't recall anyone ever blaming it on them. This debate isn't about "Sep/PC/... have too many readers and we don't". I think everyone who posted in this thread so far concurs that these authors have justly deserved their fame for the outstanding quality of their SH. Nor is it about "my...

    Alea Iacta Story Hour: A Mythic Rome Campaign (Baby Announcement: 8/17)

    Uh? Oh, that. Don't mention it, it was well-deserved ;) DOH! I hadn't suspected a thing. Now, I need to reread the whole SH with this in mind :] One question, if I may? The 'Gates of Horn & Ivory'.. these are drawn from Virgil's work, aren't they? They ring a bell but I can't recall...

    What's your favorite NEW story hour?

    If we're talking about the new 'rising stars' (through the pages of this board :p ), then I would go with: The Happenings of Lucifus Cray, the background of a most intriguing Alienist We were like gods once, a WWII SH with the most funny bot you'll ever meet Seravin's Tales of the Night...

    To Find a King (updated 06/26)

    Your praises are most welcomed! :) I must admit I was a bit nervous at first when I discovered the final ‘draft’ of the group. IMHO, it lacked a ‘rogue’ character but I had known campaigns whose groups had no access to certain classes and which ‘succeeded’ nevertheless. So, I took the risk...

    Is the Story Hour Forum on Life Support?

    PC, To be clear, I wasn’t suggesting a new method of archiving old threads. What I was proposing was that threads that enjoy enormous popularity (say, 20,000+ views? More?) AND are either closed (because the author is done) OR haven’t been updated in a long while (say, 3-5 months?) be moved to...

    To Find a King - PC & NPC

    Thank you Pogre! I'll make sure to post the other 'house rules' as they come into play. Comments are welcomed since my players didn't really have a choice and I happen to think there is always room for improvement :) That said, I strongly encourage readers to check Pogre's own SH. Not only is...

    To Find a King (updated 06/26)

    Er.. well, to know the story so far, all you need do is read this Story Hour from the first post onward. But methink we have a slight misunderstanding here. This story is an account of what has happened in my D&D campaign for the last few years. In essence, I am chronicling what my players'...

    True, but the reverse can happen too. Case in point, my last update dated back Feb. and, since then, I hadn’t written a single line. Various reasons involved but the main one was that no matter how fast/good you write, if you’re not one of the ‘big names’ your SH is buried almost instantly...
