Sorry for the delay. What's going on is that all my notes are on my laptop, which is at home, and I've been at work the last few times I've thought to do something about this thread. I'll send myself a reminder, and hopefully I'll actually do something about it when I've got all the pieces in...

So I'm trying to put together an xp award for you guys, but I find myself a bit confused. Maybe someone here can help me. The encounters in the towers appear to be using monsters that have been advanced from their by-the-book values. Goblin Blackblades in MM1 have 16 AC and 25 HP, not 18 AC...

I gotta say, I don't think I have time/energy to run encounters right now, even a short one that's half finished. Sorry. :( I'll try to close this out mechanics-wise this weekend. Plot-wise... I confess I haven't been following the plot very closely in this one. I'd be happy for one of you...

Proposals need (at least) 3 yes votes to pass, so the timer is from Iron Sky's post, not mine. This hasn't passed yet. I'm getting the feeling that people want to talk more about this before it passes, so I'm going to change my vote to NO temporarily, so that it won't pass while we're still...

Can you expand on this, Mewness?

I think YES. When we put that in originally, the idea was that there should be a (small) penalty for retiring, to prevent people from abusing it. But that just doesn't seem to be a problem here. If it turns into one, we can revisit this later, but for the moment I don't feel the need for a...

I think you lose the excess XP, by the letter of the charter. Pretty sure that's the way I've done it in the past when I've retired characters. Although, I think we'd probably be receptive to a proposal to change that. L4W has gotten more permissive towards rebuilds over the years, and your...

I suspect you may have posted in the wrong place, Meepo. :)

Yeah, it's been almost 2 months since there was a DM post here. jsb420 apparently visited enworld like 12 days ago, but hasn't posted since January. I'm happy to end the game if you guys want to. Show of hands for ending?

I seem to recall that the answer is usually no; you don't need to wait for approval for level 2 if you plan to retire that character. Once a character is retired, pretty much the only mechanically important thing about them is their final XP total, which can be verified by following the links...

Quagmire frowns behind his hand. What is a child of five doing aboard a ship? The captain didn't mention any other passengers, did he? Hmm.... "Where're yer folks, laddie?" he asks gently, but does not approach the boy.

Quagmire gives the captain a friendly smile and touches his forelock respectfully. "I'm Quagmire, Cap'n Garvyn. 'tis a pleasure t'make yer acquaintance. I've worked a ship or two in my time, tho' never one so fine as this. She's a beaty. 'twould be a pleasure to lend whatever aid I can."...

"Hmm. Actually, you may have a point there. It would be stupid for him to keep demanding that kind of money from you, month after month. It's stupid for him to ask that much in the first place; it would be far cheaper for you and your family to pull up stakes and relocate to some other gang's...

"If we go fetch this treasure for you, and pay Wellington what he's asking, what's to stop him turning around next week and asking for double?" Quagmire asks.

"Hastings Wellington, eh? I hear he claims to be Lord Wellington's son. Along with a dozen other halfbloods looking for spare change, to be sure. Seems ol' Tarquin has a taste for the exotic in his ladies, or at least that's the rumor in Bacarte. Hmm, I should ask Madame Ketratek about that...

Quagmire mutters something indecipherable about relatives, then abruptly reverts to his usual hobgoblin form. He lets out a bellow of surprise, then begins checking himself over. Satisfied that all his parts are back to their usual configuration and in full working order, he grabs a pair of...

"I didn't see it clearly, but he fell over right when this scruffy-looking character showed up," Shark-Quagmire growls, squinting at Uncle Jaz with a cold piscine glare.

Quagmire begins to harangue Sir Exsixten again, but stops in mid-sentence. Is... Is that blood I smell? Mmm, so fresh..." He turns, and sees the familiar sight of a kobold standing over a dying body, going through its pockets. He draws the obvious conclusion. "Jax? Who did you stab this...

Through the wreckage of the door strides a heavily armed hobgoblin in well-used chainmail. He does not look happy. Following the trail of wreckage, he strides over to the cockroach-infested warforged knight. "Sir Exsixten!" he bellows. "This is all your fault, you overgrown bucket of...

Quagmire is leveled up and submitted. Dunno if we technically need to submit, since there will be a continuation adventure, but, eh, whatever.
