Ha! Me is in. :) Cleric it will be (or whatever the OA equivalent may be - if you want to run OA, I'll have to do some quick reading first). Now, quest or reverse dungeon? Hmmm ... both smell nice and yummy. I lean more towards the quest (heroic me, yay), but I'll run along for the...

PC slots still open? Looks like you could use a cleric.

Hissing curses, Moon keeps attacking skeletons as they emerge from the room. He continues to fight defensively and gets into flanking positions where he can do so with a single step.

Moon attacks again, taking a single step to build a flanking position if possible/necessary.

Get well soon!

"Not again! - Farah, do you want that whistle? If it's the same kind of magic, maybe it helps against them?" Moon draws his dagger with his free hand and steps to the other side of the door from Ashrem, trying to flank any skeleton that emerges from the room. He will fight defensively as...

I don't like boxed sets. I just don't have that much free space left on my bookshelves. :( Give me a nice hardcover any time. The German publisher for the D&D materials puts each core book into a separate box and calls that a "Set" (as in "Player's Set"). It's just a box with the book...

Moon does not wait to be asked twice. He grabs the candle and the other two items and makes for the door, his eyes shining greenly in the candle's light. Black magic ... I suppose that means we don't want to try and look in there, he thinks as he passes the sarcophagi.

"Is it magic? Is it magic?" Moon is dancing with excitement, on tiptoe in front of the altar. He has neither eyes nor ears for anything but the candle now.

Moon coughs, his professional pride slightly bruised. "Nifty. A bit flashy perhaps, but, uhm, it did the job .... All hells. Is that a magic candle, do you think?" He quickly worms past Quendros through the door, keeping half an eye open for more traps on the way to the altar.

Moon motions to the others to stand back and points to the ceiling. "Scythe trap!" Nice ... "Khaira, can you read these scrawls?" He takes a moment to study the trap. If he sees any way to disable it (wires that can be reached and cut, a mechanism that can be reached and jammed etc.), he...

"Droppings? Mother of the rats?" Moon hunches his shoulders to conceal a shiver. Hope not as bad as those sewer rats in -- not now. Concentrate. Work to do. Once his companions follow him into the room with the fountain, he turns and sneaks towards the far doorway, keeping his usual...

Moon turns and waves invitingly. "Looks clear. Where next? And you know ... Did any of you get what that ... uhm ... " (snide glance towards Meepo) "the queen meant when she said 'Guthash'? Just wondering."

With a nod, Moon slinks past and approaches the door, watching and listening for anything suspicious. Wonder what that witch meant when she said 'unless Guthash is hungry' ... Better be doubly careful here.

35+. Positive. :)

Hey, if shopping works for your players, let them shop more!! I mean it. Give them stores, give them caravans with musty wagons full of stuff to browse through, give them markets. I don't like to manipulate players through XP awards. At all. All the characters get the same amount of XP at...

There's two way to deal with this: find players who appreciate your GMing qualities and turn up for your games; or change your style and run adventures that are loosely connected, if at all. You may actually end up with two groups, like me. In addition to the game I run at home, complete...

Front door, back door, all the same to me. Doors are there to be opened ... preferably by me. Hope we get going soon. Thinking such thoughts makes Moon feel better - well, slightly. He's hoping that he'll be able to slip in among the others once they start moving, to remain unnoticed if...

Moon doesn't feel he wants to be the one sticking his head out asking questions -- at least not yet. He just slinks a little closer to the throne in the shadow of the columns, to have a closer look at the "rewards" Yusdrayl offers. Go steal a white dragon ... I've done worse, I suppose...

Let me add something here. There's perhaps one rule to DMing that is older than the game itself (and I kid you not). First, build a relationship of trust with your players. All the more important in a pbp game where we don't meet face to face. Frankly, my impression here is that you...
