A brown-haired woman with a tearstained face posts a neatly written page on the corkboard, then quietly leaves the tavern. Sonny, I know this letter won't change your mind, but I'm better at writing things than speaking them, so I have to say this anyway. If you weren't the caring person I...

Arr! I'm looking forward to joining the community.

But good players... as well as good GMs... can compensate for such things. Look at the Twelfth Cat Opera Company, as an example. Aside from tweaking things just enough to prevent character death from randomness, the Cat characters tend to go with the flow of whatever is happening at the moment...

Adding to Itzquahpilli's thoughts, it's also possible that the way your character is attempting to include him/herself isn't working well. A person walking into the tavern and sort of looking around and saying hi may or may not get spoken to. This is something I witnessed happen twice today...

I can get into Enworld chat now, but UH is still not working for me.

And here I thought I'd done myself a favor by updating to Flash 9, since doing so had cleared up that weirdness of the letter A not showing up at the end or people's screennames. Ah well, at least I know it's not something I'm doing wrong. I hope whatever feature is causing the problem won't...

Tried that. It logged me out of the boards, but that's all. And as Kalreil says, I also can't log in over at UH now either.

I'm on IE 7, Windows XP, DSL connection, no firewalls. Edited to add, I'm running Adobe Flash Player 9 ActiveX... a fairly recent upgrade. And when I go to the direct login page, I get everything but the login box... the blue background, the bar at the bottom to check descriptions (which I can...

Katya holds the saddle, singing softly while gazing into the mirror and concentrating on Panuel. It takes longer than usual, but eventually he comes into focus, looking haggard and weary, but steadfastly traveling southwards in an area that Katya recognizes as being north of Greyhawk City...

Katya also helps out around the temple, in less strenuous ways... providing music for the services and assisting those on kitchen duty. Following a good night's sleep, she pulls Panuel's saddle and a rather large mirror from her haversack, finding Talon and settling into a quiet spot on the...

Katya nods. "That would be best. I need to sleep, to get my spells back. Also, I'm going to try scrying in the morning before we leave. It's not one of my better talents, but it's still worth trying. The way Jehan acted... I have to wonder if he meant it when he said Talia scryed without luck."

Katya looks down at her nearly empty plate and nods. "Yes, I'm done. Let's go fetch the supplies, shake the watcher, and find the lost Cat."

Katya chuckles as well. "In that case, I'll not ask to see it at the moment." She toys with the remnants of her meal for a moment, then says quietly, "I wish I could figure out what in the Nine happened back there. With Talia turning up and Jehan acting so... so short with everyone like that, I...

Katya smiles. "Only if you'd like to share. One thing I learned in my time on the road is that you don't pry when it comes to your traveling companions. Asking is okay, but take no for an answer unless you like waking up alone several miles from where you went to sleep."

Katya nods, then takes a drink. "Well, since nothing else is going on for the moment, maybe you could tell me about that marking?" She gestures to the wyvern tattoo. "I didn't think it was anything but decorative, until you mentioned it a moment ago."

Katya sighs. "Wonderful. I really didn't think that one whole day and night without problems was too much to ask. Ah, well... we play the cards we're dealt and hope for the best, I guess."

Katya glances up at Talon and swallows the bite of food in her mouth. "Does it look like real trouble?" she asks quietly. "Or just like an opportunist who sees two women without a so-called male protector in sight? That type tends to be blind even to swords as large as yours, when they're...

Clambake! Swimming contests, races, archery contests... and plenty of lobster, stuffed clams, clam chowder, corn on the cob, watermelon, and other goodies! For the more sedentary, a storytelling competition (as opposed to the standard bardic contest) and maybe even a pie-eating contest if we...

Katya gives Jehan one more glance before Turning to Yelena. "Good luck," she says. "Hopefully we'll be bringing the Cat back to you soon." She nudges Pavel's side lightly with her heel, following Talon down the road.

Katya pulls herself up onto Pavel's back with a nod. "Yes. Let's search together."
