    HowTo build a Mechanc/Inventor Gnome

    I have someone in my Ptolus game going for something very similar. Two things, he's a Factotum- which gives you access to every single skill. I also have Craft/Knowledge (Machines) in my game. I also picked up pdf's of Mechamancy to give feats for building and crafting crazy inventions. If...

    Ptolus: The Legend of Longcoat

    heh. Garn's cameo came out of a moment of DM winging it as well. The PC's had come across a young noble who always has a bodyguard shadowing him. I just assigned the guard a maxed-out Hide score and called it a day. Much to my surprise, the rogue spotted him. me: well crap. I don't know what...

    Ptolus: Midwood - "The Dark Waters of Moss Pond"

    Kat being shackled and taken away with the other lying wizards really did throw me for a loop. I had gotten so into Kat's mindset, that I honestly didn't see what he did wrong. Objectively, yeah, he gave information to the kobolds but he HAD TO, because otherwise the deal would have broken (and...

    Airship Antics (plot help requested)

    Nicholas Loque wrote an adventure called "Voyage of the Golden Dragon" which dealt with exactly this. I think they had sabateours trying to banish the air elemental powering it and an attack of drow on flying dinosaurs. Although some of the ideas here sound cooler I have to say...

    The Praemal Tales comments and discussion thread

    Oh ho! May I point you toward Wihizbang's long running Midwood campaign set in the Prustan Peninsula, of which I am a player. His campaign discussion thread is here. Also, I'm running a police procedural campaign in the City itself which I'll story hour soon. Look forward to reading yours when...

    Ptolus: The Legend of Longcoat

    "Oh crap," Ada says. "PALADIN!" she shouts. Ada takes her club and smashes the spider into it's gooey bits. (Let's Power Attack it. -1 to hit to add +1 to damage)

    Ptolus: The Legend of Longcoat

    Ada looks at the barrel warily. "This paladin is a terrible human shield..." she mutters. She searches the area and prods the quivering blanket while staying well back and ready.

    "Hey!" Ada shouts. 'You planning on jawing with it or are we going to find something tangible to hit?"

    Ptolus: Midwood - "The Dark Waters of Moss Pond"

    You'd have to ask Renraw's player, but as I remember it- that's exactly it. Renraw is mind-numbingly willing to risk himself if it gets revenge on those who screwed him (or even those he think MIGHT have...)

    Ptolus: The Legend of Longcoat

    Ada hisses in annoyance. "Yeah. I walked in. Started when I went looking for that smell."

    Ptolus: The Legend of Longcoat

    "An angry knife!" Ada keeps backing away and ducks behind the bar when she reaches it, motioning for Jarem to do the same. "Some spook's territorial," she snarls.

    Ptolus: The Legend of Longcoat

    Ada watches the knives for a moment before raising her shield. "Right. Bad Idea. Check. Keep your shield up paladin!" Ada shouts. She backs away slowly holding her shield in front of her considerable bulk. (Total Defense. Just is case. Against... cutlery.)

    "Can't be any worse than what's in here," Ada replies. She searches the area to see if she can find the source of the smell.

    Ptolus: The Legend of Longcoat

    "Well," Ada says. "I've seen worse nights at the Spider." Ada nods to the ajar doors behind the bar. "Let's check those first," she whispers. "Last thing we need is something slicing me open from behind when we head downstairs." If he paladin agrees, Ada will check the open doors before...

    Ptolus: The Legend of Longcoat

    Hey just because one is good and and one is evil doesn't mean they can't be buddies. Whizbang has a noble baron being fast friends with a real bastard of a wizard in our Midwood campaign. They just don't talk about their personal lives...

    Ptolus: Midwood - "The Dark Waters of Moss Pond"

    Yeah, it's cool to know someone else is enjoying this as much as we are. Kat's going straight diviner for now. If the campaign had gone one direction, he probably would have gone Loremaster. I still will eventually. But I'm going for another more out there prestige class first. I'm sure this is...

    Ptolus: The Legend of Longcoat

    Sounds good to me. Ada tries to distance herself as much as possible from her past in the Warrens, so she'd be salty toward Jarem just because he reminds her of where she came from- but the fact that he made something of himself probably makes her pretty envious, and on some level maybe even...

    Ptolus: The Legend of Longcoat

    "Our 'own' is a little different from yours, but feel free. Better to make you the first target than I," Ada says, hefting her great club. She picks up her shield and follows the paladin.

    Ptolus: Midwood - "The Dark Waters of Moss Pond"

    Hey there. I'm Kat's player. Yeah, believe it or not we do most of the conflict all via PbP. Some of us are professional to amateur writers, and we enjoy fostering that sort of thing. Renraw and Tock have been a delight to bounce off of, as they are absolute bastards. Kat's a diviner...

    Ptolus: The Legend of Longcoat

    Meanwhile, an odd pair looks at the shattered door of the Ten Bell's. One of them is a large woman wearing khaki breeches and a chair shirt over a corset cbarely ontaining a now sopping wet blouse. The woman hefts her giant club to one side. With the other hand, Ada flips her wet braid over her...
