As the creature sailed back and over the worktable, Gilthanus drew an arrow to his bow, sighted, and loosed. The arrow struck the creature full in the chest. Adaliz leapt up on the table and swung, but her opponent managed to duck the gleaming sword. As Rylic moved back to cover the exit...

Still waiting on Rylic. I'd like to update tonight if possible. I like how fast the pace has been the last couple of days. Hopefully we can keep it up!

Tancred, please roll for damage on your first hit. And from now on it might be easier if you roll all your to-hits and damages in the same roll on Invisible Castle - just label what the rolls are in the notes. They just need to be seperated by a ; between each roll, as in: 1d20+3;1d6+3;1d20 etc...

Shortly after the heroes charged through the curtain behind the shop counter and into the adjoining room, a strange gray-skinned creature leaped from the second floor balcony that sat above the room to land beside the heroes and attack, narrowly missing Gilthanus and Rylic with thrusts from a...

The adventurers shove through the curtain behind Keygan's counter, expecting trouble. What they find is another room, the far side of which has black curtains covering a window niche facing the street. Ornate locks and mechanisms are displayed there. Scanning the room for danger, they note a...

OK.. for everybody involved in this PbP, if you have only registered with Enworld since December '05, you'll have to reregister to the board. I've reposted all of our PbP replies that I could find from google, so I think we've only lost about 5 or so.. to recap: Keygan made strange gestures and...

The comforting smell of lamb stew reaches your noses as you head downstairs toward the kitchen. A human male of below average height is taking a fresh loaf of bread out of one of the clay ovens that stand on the floor in the middle of the room. A human woman is chopping parsnips at a nearby...

"As would I," Adaliz quickly adds. Jenya nods in acceptance. "Good. It is as I hoped. St. Cuthbert has provided a way. Ruphus has done a preliminary investigation of the orphanage. None of the other children or the residential staff were disturbed from their sleep while the kidnappings took...

Adaliz, AC 18 HP 11 AP 5 Adaliz looks toward the voice. Rolled 23 for spot. Tancred, AC 14, HP 5 , AP 5 Tancred looks up from his dying opponent, trying to locate the source of the voice on the rooftops above. Spot check: 9 Gilthanus, AC: 13, HP: 4 , AP: 5 Gilthanus quickly scans the...

D&D - Smart's Shackled City PbP Act I Welcome to Smart's Shackled City PbP! This game is being run by myself for my RL gaming group as well as a member of the group who has recently departed for parts unknown. We hope to keep in touch and continue gaming despite the distance through playing on...

You, my dear, are living the gamer's dream. My group consists of myself, my now-gaming wife who thought RPGs were boring when she watched them, but since playing has become hooked; my best friend from 4th grade who has always been in my gaming group when I've had one, his brother, who drives...

Wow, talk about the right topic at the right time. I'm currently trying to build a corrupt government port city, ala homebrewed Lankhmar for my Iron Heroes campaign that starts in two weeks. I'll take some of the hints from this thread as writing prompts and see what I can come up with. Thanks...

I'm interested. My IH game begins in two weeks, I have one confirmed arcanist in the group. He'll be playing it as-is and toning down the evoker side unless a good modification can be created to the system (which I think has some great building blocks) at which point I will allow a retrofit for...

Gaming, life, and the pursuit of happiness... coming from a GM's perspective. I'm hoping to expand it a bit soon, especially with news and ideas from my new Iron Heroes campaign!

And jealousy rears its ugly head in my life once again.. :p

Cool poll! I had a non-gaming wife that I converted into a gamer. She wasn't into computer games.. I said.. try World of Warcraft... now I can't get on the computer. As for RPing, when I got back into it a few years ago, I invited her to sit in. She decided to roll up a character with us, and...

Nice sheet Staffan! Thanks for your hard work.

Some nice ideas here. I'm just gearing up to planning a new homebrew for IH myself. I had thought that playing IH exclusively might preclude me from letting PCs get any magic items at all - but that might even mean not having a mcguffin in the plot (magic item everyone's after, for instance)...

My guess is that when IH is used as a stand alone game, the Arcanist is actually on par with the other classes in combat, due to magic bypassing armor DR. This might be another reason why implementing the Arcanist as a whole class in a "D20 Fantasy" mishmash might handicap him - no armor DR to...

Well, until a year or so ago I had never used a battlemat and miniatures.. but now they're a fixture for all combats in games our group plays. Our group didn't realize what we were missing out on. I was the exclusive GM for our group for years, and we had never used anything but dice and...
