    Sins of Our Fathers - 2/10 - Final Update

    Kellus' player and I have talked about this a couple times - trying to determine just "when" and "where" and "why" he made the switch back to Helm after having forsaken him for so long. We both think Baphtemet had a lot to do with it; seeing evil incarnate made Kellus recognize the importance...

    Please Pick the better photo

    Beautiful work, pogie. It's a little too late, but I liked #2 as well. D

    Sins of Our Fathers - 2/10 - Final Update

    We have a winnah! Congrats to Will, or played Geron in the short-lived Valusian PbP game. He was the only one to get all of 'em correct (and in record time, I might add). Happy Holidays, D

    Sins of Our Fathers - 2/10 - Final Update

    'Tis the season, folks, and I'm in a generous mood. I've been devoting any time for writing to the publishing contract, so have been unable to update the story hour in some time. Still, fear not! I'd like to reward loyal readers in a different manner. I've compiled a little story hour...

    The Dreaded Odd-Numbered Ability Score Bonus

    Excellent. Thanks for the link, Korimyr! D

    Sins of Our Fathers - 2/10 - Final Update

    All good theories, but...none of them true, in this particular case. Many, many posts ago I think I may have spoken a bit about the infrequency in which we're able to get together to play. Generally, we only sit down as a group 2-3 times per year since we're spread out from Maine to Georgia...

    The Dreaded Odd-Numbered Ability Score Bonus

    I could use some advice. I'm considering implementing a +1/-2 ability score modifier to various ethnic groups of Humans within my campaign world. I know that we rarely if ever see odd-based bonuses and penalties - racial modifications are generally +2/-2, stat-enchancing items are +2/-2, or...

    Sins of Our Fathers - 2/10 - Final Update

    Upon Divergent Paths On the eastern edge of the Eldritch Glades, still within the shadows cast by those slender and ancient boles, Baden waited. Alone. Or – not entirely alone. “Ilvar, can you see?” - See, Baden? “Aye. Can you see what I see?” -Ahh…no, friend. There is only darkness...

    Pogre's New Story Hour with Mini pics - (12/7 The Final Update)

    Dang, pogie. I had lapsed on your SH, searched around for it, then found the ol' 'Final Update' title. I thought, "No...this can't be another one." But it was. You're a damned mean DM. My hat's off to you! :) D

    Successful Story Hours - a simple analysis (raised from the thread)

    I'm not sure if this is the correct thread for this, but... As SH writers, we're pretty good about writing. We may take a couple weeks off here and there but, generally, we seem to share the same addiction for posting our group's exploits on the boards. Some of us, such as PC or Sep or...

    A map I worked up that I'm proud of

    You have given me some homework for this weekend. :) Thanks! D

    Sins of Our Fathers - 2/10 - Final Update

    And Now the Splintering Baden never heard them call his name- -You heard.* -or perhaps he did hear, but chose to ignore them. The Axemarch dwarf stood for a long moment upon the bluff, heedless and alone. The Weedsea’s winds pulled his beard into a snapping pennant, brown-black strands the...

    A map I worked up that I'm proud of

    Solid. Kluge, I use 'Paintshop Pro' to do whatever it is I try to do with graphics. Did you use that program, or are you familiar with it? I'm unsure how to get a "layer" so that I could lay down a grid map on top of another image. Regardless, thanks for the info. Great map, again. D

    Sins of Our Fathers - 2/10 - Final Update

    Seule - The cover was a blue-black background with a dragon on the front breathing fire. It was some sort of anniversary issue. Starting to wonder whether the editor was Mohan or Moore at that time...hmmm...

    Sins of Our Fathers - 2/10 - Final Update

    Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. No. :) During the appropriate seasons, of course. Archery and fly-fishing are my favorites. Let's just say it's a good thing that my family doesn't depend on my hunting or fishing skills to eat. All that being said - I'm certain there's lots of folks who don't...

    Sins of Our Fathers - 2/10 - Final Update

    Prophetic words. Tragedy looms. I've always wanted an ogre that doubles as a lawyer. If you can't win the case, eat the opposition. Thanks, pogie. This SH won't go away - it's like a virus inside of me now. That said, before the publication deal arrived I made a point to hop around on...

    Sins of Our Fathers - 2/10 - Final Update

    A Sundered Brotherhood The handle of their cooking pot had broken when Baden had fallen onto his pack, so Amelyssan utilized two iron pitons and a small length of wire – a makeshift device of which the elf was rather proud – to retrieve the pot from the embers. Inside, the water was near to...

    Sins of Our Fathers - 2/10 - Final Update

    Nothing gives me more pleasure than knowing I'm causing students to falter in their studies. Down with academia! Muwahahha! I think, when it's all said and done, I'll have liked doing it from my faltering memory as opposed to reality. Much easier to mold the story that way. Now I'll have...

    [IC] Valusia PbP

    I've gotten more than a few emails with some good, pointed advice to do the following: 1) Announce this PbP is only on hiatus, and not cancelled outright. 2) Let people know why I'm suspending things for a bit. First, regarding #1: Yes - this is but a break. I don't know how long it'll be...
