Hammer 18 A disagreement this morning, as we again pressed Morgulio for his oath to not betray us. This morning we were able to use divine magic to press him for the truth. Unfortunately, the magic did us little good, as none of it could bind him to a promise, and so we eventually decided to...

Hammer 17, cont. We awoke from the shared dream to the sounds of muffled conversation at the outer set of doors. I have been dreading what would happen when we left this chamber for the outside world, knowing that we would likely face an ambush outside. Knowing that they were outside right...

Re: Re: Re: Re: how about 2 ogres I am so smart. S-M-R-T. I'll go back to lurking and writing story hours now, at least until I'm not at work and posting half-cocked. But the second part of my post still stands; I'd argue for a higher DC in general, and circumstance modifiers when you've...

Yay! Kazir makes his appearance on the board! All bow down at his wisdom! I seriously got to get this board all caught up with the game, but no time for updates until next week. Sorry! Cin

Re: Re: how about 2 ogres This is going to hurt Tellerve, who's trying to convince me about his views on tumble as well, but I don't buy that it's not ALREADY harder for someone to tumble past the hill giant barbarian than the kobold. First, the giant's got reach on his side, so he'll get...

Actually Lela, it was Fineon's shark, though still a dang good idea. We played last night, for the first time in about two months. Soooo good. Many of these loose threads were tied up, or at least grouped together nicely. And it occurs to me I'm way behind on my posting; I've got about 56 or...

Hammer 17 I had a very strange dream last night, so much so that when I awoke I asked the others, and they too had it. I clung precariously to the highest boughs of a towering cloudtree. My companions, I saw, were near me – pressed against the bark of the tree like babes to mother's breast...

Bumpage His Twilight Paths campaign's playing tonight, so I'll bug him to update this SH when I see him. Hopefully he's been slaving away on tonight's game, and that's where he's been.

Thanks Lela! Kazir's player especially deserves the kudos for that one. His strategy to claim the loot was masterful. And no, the ghosts didn't really explain themselves very well. My sense is that we prevented the mercs from doing more damage to Khundrakar (thus vindicating the spirits of...

Hammer 16 Rested and recuperated, we again talked of the dwarven spirit in the pit below. We now knew him as Malgudon, the betrayer of Durgeddin’s people. I no longer felt any remorse at challenging his prohibition against exploring that layer, after learning of his past from the other...

The Long Awaited Vengeance Soon enough my companions agreed, though Toth with some trepidation. “I couldn’t care about giving up this sword,” he grumbled, “but this whole thing stinks like a week old loincloth.” The spirits moved to embrace us, one for each of us. As the lead one embraced...

Hi Destan -- If you hadn't converted to 3E yet, are you taking some poetic license with the exact spells they cast? Great story hour! Keep it up and I can't wait till we play again! Cin

Thanks for dropping by Lela! I'm glad you like it. If there's anything in particular about the storytelling you'd like me to improve, please let me know! Getting feedback from readers like you is one of the things that makes this story hour worthwhile.

A Barter with the Dead “Human,” the central ghost moaned, “we thank you for clearing the upper warrens, but you must leave these halls now, and leave behind the sword your companion carries.” I thought quickly of the sword Toth carried that we had so recently recovered from the mold. “We...

While we all wait for Destan the Grim to return from his European vacation, check out his other campaign's story hour! It's not that Destan quality we're used to in terms of writing, but the same sick, twisted mind is behind the action. Okay, okay, enough shameless plugging of my own story...

Hammer 15, the Forge of Khundrakar Another chill sleep passed in the stillness of Khundrakar. Fin shook me awake, having taken the last watch, and we all readied ourselves in silence. The only conclusion we had come to from the last evening was to leave the dwarven spirit to his rest for the...

Hammer 15 (I think), the Depths of Khundrakar Still sore from the elemental’s pounding, we awoke in the utter darkness of Khundrakar, feeling ever more like we are trapped in a tomb. I talked briefly with Kaz and Fin before praying to Deneir this morning. We came to the conclusion that...

Hammer 10, on Lake Harren As early as possible this morning we gathered Begeth again, purchased rations, and set about finding transportation north across Lake Harren. We soon found a fisherman, Peb, willing to take us in his dhow to the mouth of the Wine River, near the northern end of Lake...

Hammer 9, Late in the Evening Tymora smiled on us this evening, giving us a path to follow out of our quandary. A young, somewhat homely woman approached us at Harlan’s. It’s a rare commoner that approaches such an odd group as ours, especially at a place like Harlan’s, so I was immediately...

I heard PirateCat's ISP is no longer accepting email for him... I wonder why that is?
