    Fellowship of the Witching Hour - Part I

    Arabella recognises the name as that of a well known writer, an author of young adult horror. Arabella has probably even read one of her books.

    DM for hire

    I ran a very brief model making company selling polystyrene wargame models, terrain and such like on eBay. Had a studio and everything. On my accounts were, among other things, 40k sets I painted and resold, a White Dwarf subscription (I created/sold their self-build each month), and a ton of...

    Fellowship of the Witching Hour - Part I

    We'll carry on again, assuming Cara and Sam are still in discussion. What are Philip's intentions? At a point like this I normally ask the player to give instructions on what their PC wants to do with a wider view rather than roleplay every footstep. Most of the shops are still open. Here's the...

    Citadel of the Iron Crown - Burglars in Mirkwood

    I should also add, don't forget the rumours at the start of thread. If any players had their hearts set on exploring some or any of those that might also be an option or could be a side-adventure along the way. Don't forget the map in the OP for a rough guide to locations. The distance between...

    Free PDFs for taking our survey

    Huh. Some people will complain about anything. Not in the least bit sneaky, RPG Host. Thanks for the free pdfs. Nice selection from some of my favourite small press companies at RPG Now. Fat Dragon are definitely a great outfit. Just fyi, the survey has a glitch. I entered quite a lot of...

    Citadel of the Iron Crown - Burglars in Mirkwood

    examine scroll? Provided everyone's in agreement with Aranel's suggestion. I'm keen to hear what Fenris has to say about Thalion's preference. Thalion is, after all, probably itching to head north to the Lonely Mountain and Mirkwood would be a detour. I think Aranel wants to bring her to...

    Fellowship of the Witching Hour - Part I

    As Kook told us that he will be away for the forseeable future and we should continue without him for now players should carry on playing. Each time I have my turn I'll decide whether we can carry on without leaving Kook too far behind. As Sam is in conversation with Cara we should assume the...

    Citadel of the Iron Crown - Burglars in Mirkwood

    I agree about Enworld. It's become frustrating for me also and I've given serious thought to moving my games to somewhere like pbphouse.com, but I think I'll see how Enworld 2 pans out first. I think your suggestion for Aranel's preferred course of action is as valid as any and concurs with...

    Citadel of the Iron Crown - Burglars in Mirkwood

    Can we end all roleplay please, just for now, so that we can focus on the end scene decision. If loose ends remain we can tie them up with the remainder of this thread as I'll be starting a new thread when/if we go ahead with the next part of the game. Ok, so fairly straight forward yays from...

    EN World Short Story Smackdown - FINAL: Berandor vs Piratecat - The Judgment Is In!

    Congratulations Berandor. Looks like my old enemy the way-point bit me upon my buttocks once again. Now, not to be smug, but I'm looking forward to relaxing back with a somewhat relieved expression on my face and not having to write vs Piratecat :) Good luck both of you

    It's your turn. See the top of post 88 or the turn initiative order which I posted somewhere on this page. Your turn always comes straight after mine :)

    Seeking Advice: How to motivate players to role play more

    Something you professed to in your common DM mistakes thread seems quite pertinent. IME a DM who doesn't describe scenes well and doesn't immerse him/herself in NPCs creates situations that lend themselves well to combat driven XP hunts. Not a bad thing. I sometimes prefer such games. But if...

    Fellowship of the Witching Hour - Part I

    Hehe. Could this be any more confusing? :D Bialaska, welcome to the game :D The turn sequence system does work, I promise. I know it looks mad now, but once we get into the flow it does level out and make more sense. To answer Kookalouris and generally remind all players: You can post OOC...

    Citadel of the Iron Crown - Burglars in Mirkwood

    OOC I'm quite keen to move things on a bit, and it may be apparent that I've attempted to do that with the Thalion/thrush plot seed. At the risk of seeming authorial, my intention is to give the group a reason to leave the camp and set off to explore the setting (as was the original plan), thus...

    Fellowship of the Witching Hour - Part I

    Bit quick off the mark there greenstar ;) I find the best way to keep track of the sequence is to remember the name of the person who goes before me. Should be easy in your case as it's the keeper every time. Kook, was that your turn or do you have IC to add now that the turn initiative is...
