    [The One Ring] The Marsh Bell

    Back again. Sorry for the delay again. The Awe skill can "instill wonderment, admiration, or even fear", so that sounds right for intimidation. You have Awe 1, which I'll roll for you. To oppose it I'll roll the Troll's Hate, which is currently 4. Enemies can spend Hate points to use special...

    The Upcoming Adventures thread

    Armour of Agathys says "hell yes"! I think I'll have Rabbit go with r1g and Ironheart sit this one out. I don't think I'll have time to keep up with 3 adventures plus the one I'm running in another forum, and it feels greedy anyway... EDIT: although Rabbit's group is striker-heavy already...

    I haven't even seen any demonstrators. I manage to always not be downtown when they're marching. Yep! Although I'm going to be in Boston for a wedding exactly when you're going to be in town... Where are you flying from? Check Porter for flights. Even if you have to connect through...

    The Upcoming Adventures thread

    Rabbit has an awesome MBA! I have Tarkus in Wizards in Winter. (I plan to retire him as soon as the adventure's over.) So if I get Rabbit in one adventure and Ironheart in another, I'd have 3 on the go at once. That's definitely unfair to other people looking for slots.

    Gah. Every time I sit own to write this post something comes up and I get called away. Sorry for the delay!

    If you end up needing a defender more than a striker, I bet I'll have enough credits to level him up once I retire Tarkus. Although that might be a bit of a wait.

    They're having a sit-in around the corner from my house.

    Wizards In Winter - High-Level Thread (DM: Son of Meepo, Judge: TwoHeadsBarking)

    As the others crouch in hiding, waiting for any word from Dox, Tarkus whispers, "We should circle the village to see if there are any other ways in and out. And keep an eye out for defensible positions." But his heart doesn't seem to be in it - his words are just covering his impatience.

    Even Newer(er) Tavern Thread: The Hanged Man

    The tree's crown of leaves quivers in silent laughter. Ironheart grips the rod in his chest and jerks it back and forth a few times, watching the kobold's reaction. Suddenly he stands bolt upright and his entire body shudders, and his arm leaps away from the rod as if shocked. A tankard...

    "Does what hurt?" Ironheart's mouth forms a jagged slash in his bark, almost a smirk.

    [Proposal] - Spend some DM credit on someone else PC.

    Thanks, renau1g! One question though: I'm planning on retiring Tarkus after his current adventure and giving his XP to my other chars. Is it kosher to spend the DM credits on him first to retire him at a higher level?

    I have a Level 6 Warlock and a level 4 Warden, and a lot of DM credits to spend to bump them up (I can probably get 2 levels out of it.)

    [The One Ring] The Marsh Bell

    I just tried it and it's working. Might have been down temporarily. Or I might just have explained it badly. I was confused about it for a while because the UI's a bit weird. I kept looking for the "login" button, but there isn't one. You just type in the group name ("JoeNotCharles-pbp") and...

    [The One Ring] The Marsh Bell

    OOC: forgot to mention that stumbling on the trollwife without warning is because of Authiel's Eye of Sauron on the search roll a few pages ago. Just in case it seemed arbitrarily harsh.

    Ironheart regards the kobold gravely, then bends stiffly from the waist to pat him on the head. "You're not mad, little one. Trees and wind and rocks all have voices. They used to whisper to me while I waited. The trees I guarded were dreamers who never moved or spoke aloud, but I could hear...

    No problem, it's not like I've been keeping things moving at a rapid clip. Congrats on your finals! Orin and Borin vanish down one path with their elven guide, while the rest of you start slogging up the other. With fewer of you, the marsh seems to press in closer and the distant twitters and...

    While waiting for the uassuming man to return, Tarkus moves among his companions, making sure none are still hurt, checking weapons and armour, and offering to share a prayer with the devout or give words of encouragement to the others.

    Hmm, if mail to l4w.judges isn't getting through, I wonder if my character levelups didn't either... Did you guys get review requests for Ironheart and 7 Rabbit?

    Ironheart stands up straighter and rattles his leafy crown in excitement. "Other talking trees? Where? Were they together in a grove?" He is distracted by the entrance of the newcomer. He turns to her and rocks slightly forward, almost in a bow. "I see you garbed in the vines of nature, my...

    In that case, another two Healing Words (total of 10 minutes rest needed to regain all my powers): One on Brenwar, healing 18+12=30 damage, and one on Dox, healing 14+11=25 (ie. all the damage).
