For the OP, This thread over at RPG.net may help you out if you're still feeling down. :)

I'm currently running a weekly game while a full time grad student. 4E lets me throw together an adventure with the least amount of prep time of any edition and still have it not come across as rushed. And what adventures they are. Fighting on rough terrain while dealing with the kobolds that...

I understand where the desire to do so comes from, but I'd argue against such a thing happening 5% of the time.

Thanks for the kind words. :)

We decided that the best way to celebrate the end of final's week was with a 12 hour marathon session. The group had figured out the implications of page 42, (or whatever page it is now) the week before, and thus this week was some of the most cinematic, gonzo insanity that I haven't seen since...

4E primarily, with a smattering of 3.5 and the Warhammer 40k universe games.

Next session is the big throwdown with Irontooth I've heard so much about. I'm completely changing what Irontooth is, his having been under the influence of a second slaying stone, The Demonomicon of Iggwilv, and numerous other Demony things. He's quite mad and has learned that fixing the...

There was also copious booze, so yeah my last post was a bit heavy on the excitement, light on the detail. :p The devil vs demon part, was the Tiefling paladin enjoying her transformation power that she just got (name escapes me) which turns her into a hellbeast. She plays up her diabolical...

Tonight's game was so awesome. There was page 42 ruling the day and a session long skill challenge and an undead dragon and the forces of hell being purposfully summoned in order to combat the forces of the Abyss. One of the PCs did a diving attack from 20 feet up and rule of cooled herself to...

Get to have our fourth session in a while. The wizard and the paladin accidentally completed 2/3 of a ritual while studying some of the papers they found. This will both alert Kalarel to their presence and make life interesting for them until sunrise. Anyone have any last minute suggestions...

This will be perfect for where my PCs are going to end up. Now I just have to stall them until then.

The Slaying Stone is a much much better adventure.

Go ahead. I welcome all ideas.

This is awesome and I am stealing the hell out of it.

The thing is the skills of the player the OP mentioned are only as insightful as the DM allows. A player can only draw insight with what is presented to them when it comes to motivations and what not of NPCs.

At least in part. This campaign is rapidly becoming more sandboxy so it'll be more like, the locations in the adventures will be there if they decide to go to them. I will most likely do a version of Thunderspire, due to the Vecna connection. I also plan on having some of the Winterhaven NPCs...

Ran a short session today for two of the characters (Halfling rogue and the Tiefling Paladin) The Tiefling spent the session doing a skill challenge to try to understand the content of a text she found in the first session. The book seems to be read in a dialect of Supernal, but she can't...

I'm doing something with that later. The PC paladin is an escapee from a cult of Vecna who had a conversion moment when she was sent on a suicide mission by the cult leader because he feared her eventual replacing of him. That cult will show up later and I'm going to have fun playing the two...

Crossposted from rpg.net Well, last night's game was a success, though it went in a completely different way than I'd planned it, (as happens roughly 100% of the time in my campaigns.) For starters, I was fighting off a massive cold and was doped up on Day Quil and lack of sleep which made for...

2nd level.
