"Does the colorful name and the little umbrella affect the flavor or intoxicant levels in some way? I was unable to detect any magical influences on the beverages last time I attended the Hanged Man, but I did not closely examine anything, er, fruity," wonders Ikni guilelessly as she follows...

In the morning, those of you who elected to stay the night are treated to a lavish breakfast of eggs, bacon, roast meat, fresh fruit, light wines, and fine imported tea. The servants treat you with unctuous courtesy, and when you have eaten your fill, they bring out several large, paper-wrapped...

Lord Donnervale issues some quiet orders, and the nightshirted guardsmen set aside their swords and start the gristly task of clearing the room's corpses. Donnervale himself approaches you, still holding his daughter protectively. "I am forever in your debt, strangers, for saving my daughter...

I just want to point out that Ikni already has a neck slot item, a Brooch of Shielding +1. Did you give out a second neck item (lucky charm +1) on purpose? If so, that's cool; you're the boss and I'm not going to argue. But if it was a mistake, it's worth pointing out. ;)

Up close, the girl proves to be a very attractive human woman, not long into adulthood. Somehow, she manages to appear relatively clean and composed, despite being covered in filth from the pit and no small amount of Grakk's blood, among other liquids of less certain origin. Or perhaps it is...

"You would... use your sword as a crowbar?" Ikni asks, incredulous. "Have you no respect for your weapons? They guard and preserve your life; would it not be worth the time to simply go to the market and return with a crowbar? It cannot be far."

Quagmire's alignment is possibly a little confused, reflecting 1) his confusion, 2) my own confusion, and 3) the usual complaints about alignment being overly broad and not flexible enough and so forth. Here's vaguely how the conversation has gone in my mind, on the several occasions I've...

ooc: diplomacy checks would be appropriate now, I think.

Hi, guys. I'm belatedly catching up on judging this. I'd intended to judge it, but then it fell off my browser tabs without getting subscribed to. Anyway, here now. Since we seem to have somehow gotten into the habit of approving treasure, consider this Approved.

After you both speak, Corvin's face flushes darker still. "A trial, is that what they told you? Human sacrifice, more likely. What can these savages know of justice? They'll kill us all, sacrifice us to their dark gods, and then eat what remains. If we don't work together, none of us will...

I've got family coming to town this weekend for the holiday, and likely won't be able to get on much. I might be able to find time to update this weekend, but it might have to wait until Monday or Tuesday.

I've got family coming to town this weekend for the holiday, and likely won't be able to get on much. So don't panic if I don't post before Monday Tuesday.

I understand, P8; indeed, your description hits uncomfortably close to home, sometimes. I certainly can't fault you for wanting to move on, and I hope you'll be back in whatever capacity you see fit, when you've had a chance to rest for a while. As for how we should proceed in this...

Round 10 Slardazial responds to the taunts with mindless groans, equal parts rage and anguish. Truly, putting him down quickly seems as much mercy as justice, and you set about it with a will. In his mindless fury, Slardazial seems to have forgotten to defend himself, and only Magnus' flaming...

Well, there's an update. I handwaved furiously on the flavor text, because it took me a full three hours to do this update before I even started the fluff. So... much... going... on! I'm definitely going to need to experiment to see if I can't reduce the amount of time these combat updates...

Round 3 The battle swirls heavily around two points. Ba-Ka-Thet takes many wounds from the foes surrounding him, and looks to be in trouble despite the intervention of the Raven Queen at her cleric's behest. Meanwhile, the company pours damage into the remorhaz, pounding the demon again and...

Just FYI, I am planning on continuing this game. I had hoped to have it up and moving by now, but the time just hasn't fallen into place for me this week. It could be any day now, though. Thanks again for your continued patience.

ooc: Hmm. I think if Woe's going to walk around disguised, it's Woe who will have to make the bluff check. Aiding him is fine, and I might give more than a +2 bonus if your aid check is high enough. Or if your disguise is entertaining. ;) But, yes, the PHB does seem pretty clear that for...

Corvin's face hardens with anger. "Noble and helpful? The only noble lizardfolk is one whose head is stuffed and mounted on my wall of trophies, and if this Gildrim of yours has told you otherwise, you will find the truth of the matter soon enough. They are beasts. No, they are worse, for...

Apikotoa laughs, and responds in draconic, "Your command of the true tongue has improved, my friend! As has your equipment, from what I can see. And perhaps your luck as well; I would hardly believe a word of your tale could I not see the marks on your body for myself. As for the word that...
