    The Liberation of Tenh (updated April 24)

    Be afreed . . . be very, very afreed . . . I really appreciate when those of you with more of a lurker tendancy show up to say something nice about the Liberators-- thanks for the kind words! Yes-- the aftermath of the Zeflen fight isn't quite enough to make up its own update. So we are...

    Cohort levels stay 2 behind PCs (fixed my math)

    I run a group with 3 PCs and 4 cohorts, and we were noticing that the newer cohorts (the ones selected later in the campaign) would come in a level or two higher than the older cohorts-- it was a glitch in the math that made it really difficult for the PCs to want to keep their older cohorts, as...

    Thanks Wish-- between the holidays and the baby, we're on a little gaming hiatus. Hopefully we'll get some dice-time in soon.

    The Risen Goddess (Updated 3.10.08)

    101—Introduction to Ancient History The party returns to their home, and Gorquen is closely tended by both Ilwe and Elgin Trezler. They chant prayers and make offerings, and over the next day help Gorquen’s soul-fragments return to their host. By the time twenty-four hours have elapsed since...

    I don't get high-level D&D (merged)

    Oh, yes-- allowing the players to express their tastes is what releasing them from stric DM direction is all about. In your case, you had a case of a DM not paying attention to what his players actually wanted, as opposed to those players going all deer-in-the-headlights without a railroaded...

    The Risen Goddess (Updated 3.10.08)

    Yes. And reading carefully, you'll notice that Thel has never used it to substitute anything other than sonic. I'm sure she thought her thirty-something SR was equal to the challenge. But if you're a lich, you really can't be *that* concerned about getting blasted. I had the impression that...

    The Risen Goddess (Updated 3.10.08)

    100—Dead women tell no lies. Thelbar lashes a sonic-substituted chain lighting spell through the alleyway. It roars and arcs from wall to woman to ground and back to woman again; Hale ignores the spell, her inherent drow resistance to magic protecting her from the waves of sound. But she...

    The Liberation of Tenh (updated April 24)

    "Well, it's not that there's anything wrong with him, it's just . . ." "Yes?" "My new cohort is . . . well, a paladin, and this one is evil." "So you're worried about problems between them." "Exactly." "Other than that?" "Well, other than that, he's been fine." "An assassin, is he?" "Oh...

    The Liberation of Tenh (updated April 24)

    Strongheart was tortured to death by Zinvellon off-screen when the party was still 4th level. Sorry. As a note, my players had never seen the Warduke action figure, and missed the toy reference entirely, but they were really excited about his backstory. It made him fun to fight (paid in...

    The Liberation of Tenh (updated April 24)

    1) Smart player guess / "this is my most buh-DASS spell." :) 2) Calibut is the former capitol of Tenh. Zeflen is in the books as the Iuzian administering the place-- I wanted him to be a little more interesting than the parade of morally degenerate Iuzian spellcasters the Liberators had been...

    I'm a daddy!

    Here's to hoping that the kids suck as bad against the zone as Tracy McGrady. Congrats again, Papa Sailing-- how long was the labor? Did you hit your two-hour target?

    Patchwall 7, CY 593 76—Mind the Master Prisantha invokes the divination, and her scrying reveals what appears to be a cave deep beneath the earth; massive sharpened stalagmites and stalactites cover nearly every surface within the place, giving the inescapable impression of a damp and toothy...

    Well, Nathe's not the sharpest stick in the punji pit. But in her defense, all her vital organs are likely in a jar in Orcus' stronghold. Yeah, Gorquen doesn't play that. ----- Vurt-- I'm just not that quick. I didn't even think of it until I read your post. :)

    The Risen Goddess (Updated 3.10.08)

    99—Love never dies. While knowledge of Myth Iskok has been hidden from the multiverse by a god’s hand, knowledge of Nar Tyr has not. Orcus’ realm is detailed in many treatises, most of them dubious, but nonetheless, three days after their meeting with Factol Terrance, Thelbar reports that he...
