    revelation about bards

    Easily explained as an annoying GMPC. Especially with regards to how much you want to teamkill them. ;) ...Or it's a way of adding annoying fluff to Bardic Knowledge.

    Npc cr

    Commoner has an odd place among classes. I'd set it at -3, or CR 1/4 for a 1st level commoner, just for the ease of being able to tell that one is tougher than the other.

    Jade Regent (Spoilers) Stupid NPC Syndrome?

    The PCs are all heirs, in a way since And Ameiko only fades out for about 83% of the AP. During book 6 it's pretty much required to have her (and possibly other main NPCs) accompanying the PCs at all times, including into battle.

    OotS #844 is up! "Case In Point"

    Well, at least V doesn't have the Xs in his eyes.

    2012 PC Bodycount thread

    Ethshyadenthale, formerly a NE Elf Lich Wizard (Necromancer) 20 and Adandy Kenan, formerly a LG Half-Celestial Aasimar Cleric/Monk 17/3. The system being Pathfinder. The 5 PCs had worked together to trap a "only one in existence at a time", life-destroying monster at the centre of a...

    Jade Regent (Spoilers) Stupid NPC Syndrome?

    I think one of the best ways to handle that is indeed to drop the four major NPCs down to 1st level and have the players play as them as pregens. Of course you'd have to find a group that's cool with that, but it could work really well.

    Are you happy with your current game/edition?

    Pathfinder and quite happy. I wouldn't mind an alternative once in a while, but I do mind having to pay for a lot of new books. I'd rather just expand on my collection for the system I already have. ...That said, I really want to get some AD&D books.

    OotS 843

    So I see (now). The second half of that page apparently didn't load the first time I read through it.

    OotS 843

    I just had a thought. Tarquin's last wife died to "Mysterious circumstances". She was also a redhead (dark red, but red nonetheless). The initial strip implied he did it of course, but during his conversation with Nale both accused the other of killing her and seemed to genuinely not know who...

    Jade Regent (Spoilers) Stupid NPC Syndrome?

    The Kalsgard bit was iffy in that regard. I've ran a game past that point for one group already, and another group will probably be getting to part 2 of the adventure next session. I ran the villain as not immediately realizing that her initial attack on the PCs via hired raiders failed. When...

    OotS #842is up! "All in the Family"

    So what comes next, confession or attempt to cover it up?

    The Darker Side of Fey

    It's often less of a lack of concept of "No" than it is a lack of care that someone is saying it. And on being bound by word; loopholes. If there's something in an agreement that can be exploited, it probably will be.

    Let’s Make a Hexcrawl Setting

    Broderick's Estuary (estuary) Hex 01.08 Here the miles-long Broderick's River river meets the vast western sea, widening considerably as it rushes to its salty destination. Flanked by the relatively small Saltwood to the north, and the plains of Fernsbank to the south, the estuary is a popular...

    Equipment and Persnickety Details

    My online groups use character sheets that auto-add the weight of everything they carry, and will adjust their load limits based on temporary strength boosts and whatnot, and it's always easy to tell when someone's going over encumbrance. Aside from dwarves, none of them ever do so deliberately...

    The Darker Side of Fey

    Also all-around jerkiness for personal amusement/giggles. And don't forget kidnapping pretty people à la Sir Orfeo.

    OotS 841 is up

    Oh wow, I didn't even think of that. It'd be almost hilarious if that's what happened, and I think it'd make sense based on the amount of time between the casting of that spell and now in comparison to how much their bodies seem to have rotted.

    OotS 841 is up

    Perhaps it's meant to scare people away, or to scare away anyone who might be looking for Girard for non gate-related reasons? ...Yeah I can't come up with much to explain this to be honest. Better to just wait for more updates. Eventually it'll become clear.

    OotS 841 is up

    That's not encouraging... Hopefully it's an illusion.

    Ashamed of being a Gamer?

    I tell pretty much anyone who asks, discuss gaming at length in public settings, own several nerdy T-shirts (RPG-related and otherwise)... So I suppose it's safe to say I'm not ashamed of it.

    OotS #840 is up

    Has she ever actually proven that she's got ranks in it though? If I recall, when they were treasure searching at the end of the Dungeon of Dorukan all she did was hand out search jobs to everyone else and then use Vaarsuvius as a magic item divining rob rather than do any searching herself...
