Success! The washing women fail to notice that you are swiping the serving girl's clothes. What you doing now?

You take some of the Prince's clothes out of the chambers and, asking where you can get them cleaned, are directed to a large hall on the other side of the castle. This long hall looks like it is usually used for smaller feasts, as it has two great hearths and beautiful tapestries hung on the...

My DM considers getting a weapon ready to swing "drawing" or "readying" the weapon. He lets us "drop" a 2-handed weapon into just one hand as a free action, but makes it take a minor action to 2-hand again. Of course, this only helps with a versatile weapon, since he's in the camp that you...

I'm still offing the Gith. Last round was successful, this one is looking good. Next round? We start attacking the last of the monsters and the namby-pamby fairy races.

After looking through the library, reading accounts of the war, and histories of the area, you don't find much about local necromancers or undead threats. That said, there are a number of accounts detailing raids and even minor invasions from Karrnath, coming over the river that divides the two...

There's definitely a study on linguistics that can be done through Buffy as well, in fact, I have a book of essays that deal with the linguistic and philosophical impact of Buffy on modern society.

Dekana, I stand corrected. I missed that. Alaric, Roll a History check to see what you find out. I will give you both, and whomever else responds before I'm on tomorrow, feedback on what you find out.

I'd be interested to hear about this too. I imagine that it is a course that intersects with a number of women's studies issues.

Listening to Shel's conversation, you notice that he is genuinely excited to meet the Prince. That said, you also get the distinct impression he is here to assess the prince for his master. Also, there is a distinct giddiness, as if the boy has broken away from the exact plan in some way. As...

We have a big group, and frequently, there aren't enough defenders to go around. I suppose this easily could have colored my opinions of Rogues. For example: For a while our party consisted of a Bard, Warlord, Barbarian, Invoker, and Warlock. A Rogue would not have been super successful in...

In my experience, it is either the Druid or the Rogue. Druids don't seem to have a very good focus for their control, and their strange versatility from access to both ranged nature powers and beast close-range powers makes them, as a controller, seem far behind the damage of the Invoker or the...

Play him as quiet, sullen, and not outgoing. Also, describe him as moderately ugly, or at least unkempt. Decide on a couple of hot-button issues for him that will make him speak up. When they come up, speak your mind, be blunt, and couch nothing in soft terms. When otherwise forced to speak...

Shel seems to actually enjoy the attentions of the Prince and Varis. "We've heard rumors of Karrnathi raids farther up the border, but we've not had any of that here. Still, Lord Leo has decided to raise the militia and start hard drilling, just in case. We have about 300 men and women here...

1 Success! Baron Hoffsted's father initially resisted Queen Dannel's rise to power, fearing that she wasn't hard enough to lead the nation in war-time. Eventually Baron Don ir'Hoffsted's father came in line, but in the most troubled times of her reign, when she has seemed somewhat depressed...

You all meet up on the mustering grounds the next morning. Prince Oargev and Alaric arrive together to find Commander Blade and his 104-strong warforged unit waiting stoically for the six of you to arrive. Blade wields a wicked-looking double sword. His plating is dark adamantine with...

From time to time I go on thematic reading quests. This past summer, my quest was for the Grail, reading as many different iterations of the Arthurian Legend as I could get my hands on. This, combined with the release of 4ed Eberron, inspired the current PBP I just started elsewhere on these...

It is not actually a note. It is a map of eastern Cyre with a map clearly demarking the path you and your men are to travel. There are a number of holds, castles, and keeps along the way marked. The distances look as if you will have client lords to stay with roughly half of the nights of...

I just minimized a level 30 character for HP (136 HP) and maximized a level 30 character for hp (285). The breath weapon, on average, with the ongoing 15/10 accounted for once each, (assuming a character hit by it does not get an extra saving throw or two or an auto condition-remove but makes...

The queen replies, Officially, you will be patrolling the river for Karrn incursions. Those are the only dangers we anticipate. You will be traveling on foot, though we can give you riding horses from the royal stables if you wish. They shouldn't be strictly necessary, as time is no object on...

"For the most part, they are seeking to bloody our noses a bit and give their green troops a little experience. Our intelligencers have reported a series of poor harvests in the north as well, so they may take food. That said, if they came across and identified a target of opportunity which...
