    We're Going To Do Return to the Tomb of Horrors and One Player has Freaked Out!

    Ok, just found this thread and I haven't read thru it all, but it seems that my opinion is very different than most here. As such, I will done my flame retardant gear before I begin. (And, feel free to disagree.) RttToH is very difficult, very challenging, and very dangerous. Our pty played...

    (Cydra) Great Conflicts

    Greybar, its very difficult to cover all of our bases and, in this case, we probably would have done the same thing even if we had known the consequences. After all, Asmodeous is gunning for us anyway. One of the things that makes Jester's Epic game so fun is that even acts of good, at this...

    What's the worst repercussions you've experienced from playing an evil campaign?

    Well, I've played a couple either overtly evil or evil by majority of PCs, and I'm now no longer surprised when in comes to a violent end with PCs killing each other. In general, I don't like evil games as one time I had to kill another PC to stay in character, as in the particular situation it...

    Do you Enjoy running high level games?

    I really think that story controls, vs. level/power controls are the best way to make D&D interesting, regardles of the level. My high level group had a bit of a frustrating (in a good way) time when they found out the town they saved was less than grateful. Long story short, sure they could...

    Gez, Would you be a *semi*lich? (Little joke from our trip thru the Tomb of Horrors)

    Per the mass destruction spells in that game, Orbius whipped out the big guns and cast a Mass Stone to Flesh which disable nearly the entire Orchish party!

    Ah, wonderful Scrystrike! You really do need 400 + hps, like Lester, and a mega Fort save (again, like Lester), to walk away from the damage. This spell, also know to the party as: Far Zot (Orbius' scientific name for the Scrystrike phenomenon.) aka "WHAT THE F--- WAS THAT?" aka "Why is...

    The Ardick Campaign - Chapter One: Repentance

    The Keep - Part II The keep consisted of a two-story square building. From their immediate vantage point, approximately 50 feet in front of its double doors, they could see a small balcony on top. Mhoram invoked a minor valence and flew up to it, scouting around the outside of the upper level...

    When it is time to shut up (RttToEE spoilers)

    Yeah, Air Elementals are great at grappling. Biggus, per your first post about taunting the DM, I sorta agree with the DMs assesment. In my game, I play pretty loose with the rules as the one thing I hate more than anything else is stopping the game for 10s of minutes to debate a rule. My...

    The Ardick Campaign - Chapter One: Repentance

    The Keep - Part I They wasted little time debating their course of action and set off on the path before them. They walked, mostly in silence, for what seemed like an hour before Darsint spoke. “What do you know of me, Mhoram?,” inquired the Green Star Adept. “Very little,” replied the...

    The Ardick Campaign - Chapter One: Repentance

    Echoes By Pink Floyd Overhead the albatross Hangs motionless upon the air And deep beneath the rolling waves In labyrinths of coral caves The echo of a distant time Comes willowing across the sand And everything is green And submarine And no one showed us to the land And no one knows the...

    The Ardick Campaign - Chapter One: Repentance

    Just reserving some space for my upcoming Story Hour and thought I'd put in some meta-game notes. This campaign is inspired by my ever growing need for Epic adventure. As you may know, I game with The Jester and he's split his game into 2 groups - Epic Level and a lower level Halfling party...

    (Cydra) Great Conflicts

    Nicely done, Jester. I enjoyed the update and its always great to read up on what you missed during a nonpresent game for your PC. How was Inoeke freed from that Imprisonment? Does Horibn have access to Freedom? -AoA

    (Cydra) Great Conflicts

    Nosotros neccisitamos un "update", por favor! Omrob, Any retirement will by Michael Jordan/Jay-Zesque for Lester, but I feel compelled to say it whenever we see the "Good" guys in bed with the "Bad" guys, getting all hot and steamy over abstract ethical principals.

    (Cydra) Great Conflicts

    Yeah, haven't asked, but all of his servants don't appear concern about anything other than the War of Ethics. Even if we were to help Prayzose reunite the church, we still wouldn't see an end to the War of Ethics. In the words of pop icons Milli Vanilli - "Girl, you know its true." So, how...

    30th Level Adventure in the next DUNGEON mag!

    Glad to hear that Dragon is going to Level 30. So many adventures are geared towards low to mid level characters that it can be hard for a DM to get quality ideas that have actually been tested. (Dragon does playtest, right?) I'd like to think, as Crothian stated, more people are playing...

    (Cydra) Great Conflicts

    Thank you, Horbin, for actually talking some sense to these blockheads. Looks like these days you have to choose either Ethics or Morality, not both. Man, for having such a high stat sheet (Jester keeps Galador's character sheet posted on his wall), Galador is an IDIOT! He would rather have a...

    (Cydra) Great Conflicts

    Angels and Devils fighting TOGETHER! My poor little archetypes of Good and Evil are permenantly demolished. Screw it, time to retire . . . P.S.: Lester always sheds a tear when he kills another angel. Stupid War of Ethics!

    Sigil Kicks Butt! Yeah, Sigil is pretty sweet. Its nice that it seems fairly removed from the War of Ethics, . . . well, at least until recently.
