OOC: Sorry - no post today. I will do the big update tomorrow. I am 3 weeks into a new job, and the hours are pretty crushing at the moment.

Just more Fort rumours: The shocker lizards are relatively nonagressive as long as intruders move slowly through the warrens, don’t approach too closely to any of the several egg mounds in the caves, and don’t hurt the lizards. If any of these conditions are broken, the dozen adult lizards in...

Fireball is far too fast an explosion to set fire to anything, other than to set clothes smouldering, etc. If it was targeted at a pile of hay, then sure, the hay would probably explode outwards and burn as it fell to the earth, but a wooden structure would just be blackened by a thin dusting of...

Well, you can see about 5 ogres, but Jakardos said that during his failed attempt to retake the fort he estimated at least 30 of them - that was why they fled in the end. It took ages for the ogres to seem to mobilise - perhaps laziness, or just trust in their ability to beat a foe that nobody...

On the trip up there, Jakardos reminds you all of what has occurred. A notorious clan of ogres known as the Kreegs launched a devastating assault on the fort three weeks ago, an assault that left little doubt of treachery in the mind of the few survivors. Someone must have given the Kreegs...

While you set the house ablaze, Jakardos and Kibb head out to try and find a trace of Kaven. After fifteen minutes or so, with the house now a strong pyre, and the disfigured human corpses you found outside taken care of in a slightly more humane manner, Jakardos and Kibb return. "He has gone...

Tell me about it! I just started a new job last week and it is insane. I leave earlier in the morning, arrive home later, study during my commutes for professional exams, and then worse of all I find myself dreaming about work! It is my first time managing a team of other people as well. Great...

;) I find it quite charming.... like an old lady who cannot find her false teeth :p

Ha ha ha, yeah! They can be player-killers in the hands of cruel GMs, but if you play them in the spirit as they are written (which is hard online), the writers clearly give some possible routes that can be taken to neutralise foes, or perhaps even things up with creative role-playing. Given...

I know Jovik was concerned that the smoke would be visible from Fort Rannick. It is possible, but highly unlikely. The fort is 14 miles hike away, and there is a large expanse of forested land between, and often considerable mists from the river that runs down from the Storval Deep. The chance...

Kael moves around the house, taking in the horrific sights that Jokad and Danth had already seen. It is, quite simply, an incomprehensible den of evil. Even the crude drawings on the walls make him sick, and when he notices, almost by accident, that one of the sofa's has been covered with skin...

KAEL TO LEVEL UP PLEASE! Next level-up will be for the party as a whole, including Kael, just to get everyone back in sync (unless we have other deaths, etc.)

Jokad takes command of the search. Jovik, for once, looks a little reluctant. It is perhaps the stench, the inhumane trophies littering the house, the faecal and blood paintings upon the walls ... regardless, he move outside for some air, having to carefully skirt around the huge hole in the...

Searching her corpse is not really Jovik's idea of fun, but hey, you never know what you will find... A potion held inside a bird-skull holder. A scroll. 2 varisian idols (small dolls, one in the shape of a strange canine, the other of a child with a bat's head) - Kael recognises them as...

As Jokad runs ahead into the room at the end of the corridor, Jakardos walks calmly up to the corpse of Mammy, threads an arrow, and from two foot above her corpse sends the arrow through her eye and out the back of her skull. He doesn't speak. Vale grunts. Jakardos turns towards him, as if...

Jokad and Jovik both step back as the large form of 'Mammy' crashes to the floor. The floorboards shake perilously, and a cloud of dust rises. Her body is huge. Almost a formless sack of flesh and fat and blood from her horrendous wounds. Her face sits sunken into folds of flesh. The stench is...

Init Order: Jokad (15), Jovik (14), Kael (3), Mammy (3), Danth (No action posted yet) Jokad ignores the blood and gore and spew from his previous kills and hacks into the bloated corpulent mass of Mammy with all the power and violence his thews can muster. He blade strikes twice, deep and...

OOC: Jovik can move forward with a 5' step, opening up the square for Jokad (which I am assuming he has done), but that would be Mammy surrounded in a single square wide corridor, so unfortunately Danth cannot attack except via ranged.

OOC: Initiatives and actions for the next round please. Mammy is now without the protection of her mirror images, and appears increasingly unnerved by the onslaught. She is massively outnumbered, and probably starting to realise the fight is moving against her.

OOC: Init order: Jovik (18), Jokad (15), Kael (10), Danth (10), Zombies (2), Mammy (-2) Kibb, Jakardos, and Vale crowd around the heroes, but are unable to get any clear space to help. "What do you want us to do?" asks Jakardos, and where is that damn Kaven? Jovik looks up the flying for on...
