Well, it's been an interesting summer. I finally finished the last of the exams I had to write this year, which as you may have noticed slowed down the pace of my updates to the point of stagnation. Writing practice exams for 6 hours a day for the last 5 weeks kind of dampened my enthusiam...

These days, I don't have time to update my own SH much less follow numerous others on a regular basis. I don't really follow any of them regularly...since I hate waiting for updates (I know, I know, for those of you who might have checked out mine, that makes me a pretty big hypocrit these days...

As this may very well be applicable to a campaign I'll be running shortly, I thought I'd chime in. While I think that the soldier working his way through the ranks to command troops has its place, I'd have to say that I'll probably lean more towards the noble/bard route, simply because there is...

Okay, so this turned out a little long, and are more plot twists than dilemma's... I ran a campaign a while back which revolved around a powerful merchant fighting a covert war against a lich (one his ancestors) to protect an ancient artifact which would allow the lich to gain the power of one...

Bad news once again, I'm afraid. As a result of passing a second round of exams, I once again have to leave town and head to Toronto for a two week training seminar. The next update is in the works, but since I'm leaving this afternoon, well... Anyhow, I'll probably have time to work on it...

As promised. I realize that some of the description of the mines is still confusing, so I'll try to explain it a little better at the end of the post. I'm still working on getting a map posted for it, but honestly, I'm pretty lazy, so unless somebody else *coughGalemancough* does it, it could...

Well, I'm back. Thanks for your patience although, I suppose I didn't leave you much choice in the matter...The good news is, that while I was gone, I managed to write up another update (it's amazing what being trapped in a little cell, without cable, the internet and only accounting textbooks...

Yeah, Taran's exagerating slightly. Malakai didn't get quite that playful until he unstrapped his two-handed sword. ;)

Good news and bad news... Here's an update, albeit a very short one. That's the good news. The bad news is that it's the last one for a while. I managed to scrape my way by the first of a series of professional exams I have to write this summer and as a result, I'm going to be out of town...

I've seen Princess Mononoke, and it was good (the little tree spirits were cool) but I thought Spirited Away was much better. I generally look for action when I'm renting Anime, but I do make exceptions. Grave of the Fireflies was excellent (was trying to remember the name when I posted the...

Thanks for the posts guys, it's always nice to know that people are enjoying the story. To show my appreciation, here's an update. I realize that it might be a little hard to follow my description of the goblin mines. I'll see if I can get Galeman to post some of the maps when he gets back...

Inspired by the 'Perfect 10' thread on movies and my desire to rent some quality Anime this weekend, I'd like to find out what people consider the best anime out there. I know its been done before but movies or series, what's your favourite anime? I'll get the ball rolling... 1. Cowboy Bebop...

Hrm. Maybe I should clarify a few things in Taran's post. What he means by 'inside scoop' is 'misinterpreted MSN message' and what he means by 'almost done' is 'just started'. Actually it's a little further along then that. It'll probably be up by the end of the weekend. When Galeman gets...

It's a little cooler in the mountains, and tends to be a little more like a savannah around the foothills. Besides, they're 3.5 dwarves who, from what I can tell, can do everything except walk on water and cure lepers. And I'm pretty sure that at least a few of them can do that too. (The...

Yes. Yes it will. I think it's time to reintroduce the appliance levy and the bathroom tax. Anyhow, thanks to all of those who have posted, it's nice to see that people are enjoying reading about our game because we're sure enjoying playing it. Shayla however, is currently in England/Europe...

Well, it's been a long time in the works but I now have the pleasure to present to you the first part of Chapter 3. It hasn't really been proofed by Gorak, Shayla or Galeman so there may be slight changes and some grammatical stuff I haven't caught. This part is a setup to the actual...

http://www.apple.co.jp/quicktime/trailers/casshern_large.html Okay, so I mean it's pretty obvious what the movie is about, but I'm wondering if anybody knows more about the story, or exactly what's going on. I just hope its released on DVD with subtitles...

See, the thing is, this is the way most encounters go in Galeman's campaigns, but after a half dozen or so TPK's in various campaigns, I've learned to spend the first round planning my escape. It's pretty much the only reason I'm playing a wizard in this game after having played one to 14th in...

Yeah, I have read (and thoroughly enjoyed) that story hour. What I should have said was I'm never seen Gorak play a high level druid, and I'm not sure how that's going to work out :D . Heh. [/whine on] Okay, so this is not an update, just a status report. Things have gotten insanely busy for...

Yeah, it's a definite concern. Shayla will probably have to take spell penetration at some point. I'm focusing mainly on conjuration and utility spells, so it won't be that big of a deal for me. I'm not really sure how higher level druids work out, having never seen one in action, but we're...
