    Shilsen's Eberron SH (Finished - The Last Word : 9/20/15)

    Once the Guardian Angels have disposed of the ‘mist dragon’, they are able to meet up with the dragons and the trolls, who had emerged from the Dead-Gray Mist in separate groups a couple of miles away. Once they have are all together, the Angels use their link with Mual-Tar to seek out the Worm...

    Shilsen's Eberron SH (Finished - The Last Word : 9/20/15)

    As Rackhir noted above, I'm really really busy with other things at this point, which means my gaming time is very finite and my Kingmaker game trumps the story hour when it comes to deciding where to dedicate my time. I actually started writing the latest update for the story hour a few days...

    Once I get a new job, I'll let you know :)

    Shilsen's Eberron SH (Finished - The Last Word : 9/20/15)

    That's awesome. There's nothing like catching potential gamers early and I think roleplaying games are a damn fun teaching tool. I've actually run a quick adventure in a first-year composition course (so for 20 students, almost all non-gamers) as an exercise in creating a text, adapting to...

    Thanks. I think some descriptions might have showed up in posts earlier, but I can't think of a specific one. I'll ask the players to post something about that and, if someone doesn't, then I'll do it.

    The next couple of days after the Guardian Angels deal with the attack on Sharn are comparatively peaceful, but they are exceedingly busy, traveling back and forth across Khorvaire to make arrangements for the expedition into the Mournland. The most significant portion of their time is spent of...

    Shilsen's Eberron SH (Finished - The Last Word : 9/20/15)

    After over a year (or years, in real-time) of suffering through all the stuff that I did to them, the Guardian Angels definitely got their own back on my NPCs in the last few sessions. Speaking of which, we've got three more sessions remaining in the campaign. Unfortunately, I went straight...

    Sure enough, the Guardian Angels have barely begun breakfast the next morning when they are interrupted by a commotion and the faint sounds of combat in the distance. Only moments later, their unfortunate neighbors see Korm and Six zooming by, seemingly seated on something unseen (namely Luna in...

    What he said. I'm going to be busy with stuff for the semester till about the 18th of August, so it'll be a bit after that before I can update next.

    Shilsen's Eberron SH (Finished - The Last Word : 9/20/15)

    There is no visible effect as Nameless' hand touches the rough surface of the Madstone, but the Guardian Angels—their minds connected via the telepathic bond—instantly sense a response. The consciousnesses—or, according to the alienist, facsimiles of true consciousness—contained within it leap...

    We used that at one point, but not throughout.

    Pretty simple, actually. A PC who goes down to -10 HP or below doesn't die, but can't be revived until after the end of the encounter. The only way they would die is if an enemy subsequently tried to coup de grace them.

    You're assuming the amount of difficulty isn't precisely what I intended :devil: Actually, it was almost exactly one per two sessions (49 in 101 sessions, to be precise). Which is just about where I wanted it to be in terms of difficulty and PCs going down. I've grown to like combat (as both...

    I didn't expect those fights to be too challenging (only EL19 each, though as usual they were pretty tough for their level), but even so the PCs handled them very well. And it's not a patch on the stuff they do subsequently. Those are both nasty spells for their level (esp. Downdraft). Check...

    Shilsen's Eberron SH (Finished - The Last Word : 9/20/15)

    Appearing a short distance outside the southern edge of the Icewood, the Guardian Angels study the forest near them. Perhaps due to what they already know about its reputation, they dimly sense an aura of dark malice emanating from the trees, a deeper darkness lurking under the twisted branches...

    :D Well, here's some more to distract yourself... * * * * * * * * * * The third and last army that the Guardian Angels encounter consists of a smaller number of dolgrims than usual, with only two hundred of the four-armed creatures present. Conversely, they are accompanied by a somewhat larger...

    In the interests of avoiding my grading (I have 80 end-of-semester papers sitting on my desk right now), I completed another update and sent it off to Rackhir, who's nice enough to double check them before I post, so it should be up here in a few days.

    Shilsen's Eberron SH (Finished - The Last Word : 9/20/15)

    With the strange Mist monsters disposed of, the Guardian Angels use a portable hole to heal their wounds, entering the extradimensional space to separate themselves from the conditions of the Mournland. Once they are all completely hale, then Nameless, Luna and Korm conjure up the regular...

    Congratulations. Especially to Sanne, since she had to do the hard part :)

    101 sessions and 49 "deaths". Which is precisely what I calculated it would be :devil:
