    Dark Days in Sion - Act 2: Scene 4

    Burrai Steelborn Putyuk's had filled considerably. Burrai stood in the doorway, head cocked to one side, examining the common room. Then he leaned back and looked at the vaulting catherdral ceiling of dull, iron grey clouds. ~Later than I expected~ he thought. ~Or the workers have all decided...

    Dark Days in Sion - Act 2: Scene 4

    Burria Steelborn Burrai took a moment before nodding slowly. "A fair price. I think it would be remiss of me to try and haggle. I'll pay for 6 seasons - six trips - then, plus a fair excess to take it to a round hundred." He opened his coin pouch and began making neat piles of ten. "As for...

    Dark Days in Sion - Act 2: Scene 4

    Burrai Steelborn Burrai opened his mouth to speak, but instead chewed his words for a moment longer. He considered just lying to Kadar, and leaving the finer details of compensation to the colour of his coin - this wasn't Omar and good mercenaries knew what they were signing up for...

    Dark Days in Sion - Act 2: Scene 4

    Burrai Steelborn Burrai stepped inside Kadar's office. In truth, Burrai hadn't been away from Cabarda for just shy than two years - it had been longer. While he'd been brooding over his books, looking to divine something of importance, he'd stayed away from the mercenaries and soldiers...

    Dark Days in Sion - Act 2: Scene 4

    Burrai Steelborn "Glad to know you'll defend my honour with your finest words." Burrai said, and suffered a hearty slap on the arm from a laughing Uthal that would've knocked a smaller man to the ground. "Still, we'd be go back inside before your new comrades think were out here whispering...

    Dark Days in Sion - Act 2: Scene 3

    Burrai Steelborn Burrai nodded thoughtfully, scratching his beard as he listened. Perhaps not as much had changed as he feared. Those two were still in town, and neither showed telltale signs of sliding into league with darker forces. Smugglers in their own way were as honest as merchants -...

    Dark Days in Sion - Act 2: Scene 3

    Burrai Steelborn Burrai let the insult bleed into the silence, dropped like a pound of Orc flesh onto a King's table in the middle of a banquet. Then with slow steps walked over to the table. Uthal stood beside his stool, and Burrai didn't halt until he was looking almost straight upwards. He...

    Dark Days in Sion - Act 2: Scene 3

    Burrai sighed. He'd let his impatience spill over. In a few words, Rol had transformed from bluster and indignation, puffed up like a gull in heat, to something small, hard and scared. Burrai had achieved what he'd wanted, but Rol had paid that price. The younger dwarf sat compliant, staring at...

    Using Shade Twin in combat

    Hi guys Does anyone know what the rules are around this power if it's used in combat, especially considering a Warlock can have concealment a lot of the time. I'm thinking specifically about the part of the power that states "Creatures that observe you are aware that you have done so". What...

    Drawing out the dwarf

    ah...... Just got in and looks like I was both a) rather unclear, and b) probably over-reacting. (Should also mention this is an online game, through RPTools and a chat client, not VOIP) In a nut shell - the characters all don't know each other prior to the game starting, so my fears are that...

    Drawing out the dwarf

    O vast and faceless miasma of gaming knowledge, lend me your wisdom.... ....ahem. Quick point. I'm a new DM with a bunch of new gamers and alas, someone has drawn up the stereotypical, loud-mouth, hyper-aggressive, alcoholic dwarf. Now, I've no doubt this is due to not having played...

    New Dm + New Player = HELP!!

    Hey guys. Looking for some advice on how to deal with a potential sticky issue. I've played 4e a bit and I'm solid enough with the numbers to spot an error when I see one. I've decided to take the plunge and DM my first game over an internet client, and all of the participants are relative...
