(OOC: Ulfghar. Your Sense Motive is 7. Roll a d20. It will take several moments to sense intentions. ) The guards stand before you. Tension is palpable in the air. Preda and the fellow beside her are too distant to betray intentions. The fellow beside Preda does keep his hand at his...

Nado turns away with a smile, falling in behind Ulghar as he makes his way down the path towards the burial mound. Several villagers look on and move aside as you make your way. As you approach the woman, five armed guardsmen move to block your path. They bear coarse leather jerkins and...

"The name of a man perhaps? Sounds Engolthen. The black-haired traveler back on the trail did mention that there had been a battle. The Lord was killed. His lady, Preda was now liege. The villagers seem mightily concerned in any case," says Nado. He looks back to the hill's crest, where...

"Aye Ulf. But a wise man once said 'there is a remedy for everything, and it is called death'," replies Nado, brushing a hand through his oiled hair. The shiny, black ringlets jingle slightly with the silver rings Nado routinely ties at their ends. "There, that man beside her ladyship. He...

Okay. I guess you also get extra Essence points for fourth level. 1d4 per level. 8 out a possible 16 (we'll say you get half). Ulfghar has 68 Essence (60 + 8). Fintain you will have 50+ 8(8 is what Ulf must have rolled). Bragon, you'd have 60 + 8 too. R + D: Make an in character post...

Bragon. Nado's curious musings are as familiar to you as your own thoughts. But in the end, your south-born companion remains as much an enigma, as a friend you've come to trust. (OOC: Nado is a Hannathri born traveler, who has been with you since the beginning. He was added to round out...

Looking back over the seasons, it seems like an age since the four of you fell in together. The troubles in Mourandar and the betrayal by Joffer seem as distant as another life now. But vengeance lives on in your hearts. Especially for you Bragon. Your father suffered greatly under that...

R Hurry up man. D Finish it up. First campaign post will be Tuesday in the Playing the Game forum.

The Hundred Seas R, M + D Whenever you have to roll something I’ll give you the situation. You roll the dice at home and post your result (and add the pluses and minuses). I’ll do the same and it just continues from there. Choose a colour for your in-character posts. Anything out of...

:p As a Canucks fan, it's my God-given right and duty to feel bitter. Bovine was poking some pretty raw wounds.

Holy Bovine said: Of course who would ever expect Anahiem and the Wild for the Western Conference final? Wow. Minn can be a damned exciting team to watch at times and Vancouvers lack of disipline and teamwork doomed them in the end. That last period of game 7 all I saw was 5 individuals skating...

What's to do? Another heartbreaking year. I respect the Wild for winning. They were the better TEAM. But like 'em? Sorry, their style of play leaves me WELL and TRULY cold. The curse of Vancouver continues. I've been down all day. I shelled out for playoff tickets (went 5 times) and...

Congratulations!

YEAH BABY CANUCKS! And I was there. I witnessed first hand the Canucks' dismantlement of the trash-talking Blues. Oh so sweet! Whoever it was who mouthed off about the Blues exposing the Canucks for the "One-line team they are," enjoy your crow! It's all gravy now baby. With that victory...

I nearly threw my shoe at the tv when Hejduk scored that goal. Unbelievable. Nothing in the world, though, would be more personally satisfying to me than to see Vancouver ahead of Colorado when the standings come down in the final hour. Second to that would be the denial of Forsberg and...

I love Erikson so much. They're so epic in scale and I think he's a tremendous storyteller. The third book, Memories of Ice was good too, but Deadhouse Gates remains my favourite so far. Teh fourth book just came out, House of Chains. I like how Erikson is switching back and forth between...

Best series EVAR. The Red Wedding still has me all shaken up.

Hopefully those who helped bring about the end of this, one of the finest of tv shows, will suffer an eternity of damnation in the Hell of Big Brother Re-Runs.

Utterly awesome and epic series is Steven Erikson's Malazan Book of the Fallen. It's presently on the fourth book and counting. Dense, exciting, bloody, vast in scope, easily the equal of Martin. American publishers apparently have turned it down because they feel it's too complicated for...

I've read on some site (can't recall) that RotK could clock in at 3.5 hours.
