Aurvang slams another tankard of ale, and roars with laughter. MEEeeeeeEEE a bandit? Come nowwww. I....I...I.. am a proud member of the Hooooouuust. Ya know what, I could take offense to that commmmentt, but another ale will siiimmer me downnn.... Aurvang smiles proudly and strokes his...

Duel of Wits would be more appropriate if you wanted to convince the Captain or your brother that the Chevaliers should aid us in exploring the Caves, something they clearly don't want to do. I think it all comes down to what your Task and Intent are. If they directly conflict with the...

At the Friar's mention of wine and vineyards Aurvang blanches. Eh... hehe... no thanks good sir. I'd prefer a stouter beverage, ya know, something more like meself (Instinct at play here, never turn down a drink unless it's wine. Assuming Aurvang does get his beer one way or another, I'll go...

I like your style little lady says Aurvang with a wink. Then he licks his lips again. ooc - Let me know if this is playable. Task: loosen the tongues of the Chevaliers by drinking them under the table. Intent: learn where my cousin Gloi was last seen and any clues that might lead me to him.

I have an idea.

In that case I'll keep waiting for that drink and let the pretty ones do the talking.

Sounds like a good plan. I don't have any applicable skill, so I'll have to go Beginner's Luck Persuasion maybe. Unless of course, I can use Drunking, but that would require getting drunk first, which is why I'm tagging along with you in the first place. Ha.

I"m not completely sure how to handle this, so correct me if I'm wrong. while Ferranatos and the others chat up Auromos, Aurvang is going to drink... a lot. After his first drink, paid for by Ferranatos, he'll sidle up to anyone (another dwarf if there is one) who looks like they might be a...

Aurvang licks his dry lips, and blinks his blue eyes expectantly. "Leave it to a half-naked elf to hold up the line," he whispers to Constance. Ay Corporal! We'll see the elf gets dressed properly soon enough. Now, down to business. Where might a fine company such as ours (sarcastic...

Aurvang had been sullen and dour for most of the journey, at least until the evening fires were lit and the bottles were passed around. On more than one night the dwarf had won a drink by entertaining a peasants child with tales of cave trolls or night goblins, all true of course. However, the...

Anybody got ideas of how we could all get together? For Aurvang, I was thinking that he is on leave from his duties with the Host. He decided to go to the Keep, and the Caves of Chaos, in search of Thror's Axe to gain renown, wealth, and maybe a lucky dwarfette. He also needs to find out...

I like the duality of the Paladin's relationship with Constance too. I also agree a range weapon might be a good idea. I just don't have the skill points to do it with Aurvang, so unfortunately he will be standing around during Range and Cover. Pablohoney - I'm not sure how many resource...

Aurvang is going to have a field day with the naked elf. I can already pictures drunken (and sober) grumblings ... "no decency... pointy parts stickin' out every which way... how's an upright dwarf supposed to focus on killing monsters when the forest-frolicker is prancing around naked like a...

I loved Hero Quest! I played the whole thing straight through. I think I was too young to realize I could change the rules :) I think my beef with CR is that it seemed like a half-finished product, as does much of the WoTC stuff recently. But that is another story that belongs in another...

@ engrishonly - my brother will be ready to throw down. No worries. I agree, the old school intro is the way to go. I'm definitely down for an old school revival after playing the abomination that is 4e for some time. @ Mathalmus - I've played Castle Ravenloft and was not at all...

Thanks for your honesty. Better to drop out now than after we get started. If Burning Wheel is the right game for you I'm sure you'll find your way there some day. For now, best of luck with your gaming.

I totally agree. BTW - I just read about Mystara on wikipedia. This is F-ing awesome! "Mystara is a hollow planet, with a habitable surface on its interior called the Hollow World. This world is lit by an eternal red sun at the center of Mystara, and serves as a "cultural museum," preserving...

For reference, can you tell me which direction is Rockhome, the land of dwarves?

Me neither. I'm going to make a preemptive Drunking test to represent my excitement. Ob 1, Success!!!!

Ooooo! I like the regretted drunken oath... but I like the Axe too. Well, I bet we can work the drunken oath into gameplay easily enough. I like the Axe as a starting point because everyone can play off of it.
