our version of Vitus Sigismund would have definitely sided with the Crisillyiri, so he was completely out of the equation for us. As you'll see soon, the Humble Hook played a role in our solution for the conflict. I just wish we would have been able to use it more often. In retrospect, I...

A cornered cat Auryn adds that we two only recently learned of the conflict between the colonists and the Bagheva, which is why we would like to speak to their chief Betronga. Talios stays in her tiger form for a little longer before she calms down and transforms back. She seems...

Haha, nice one! Regarding Risur, I would throw in Harkover Lee / Inatch who knows about Gradiax. well, not as the mother of Teraklir, obviously, but as someone who might have had a relationship to Gradiax back in the days. Our GM had Grady and Inatch have a rather big age difference, which is...

Session 48 The I of the tiger We return to Kasvarina's home with a sense of accomplishment as we really feared that High Matriarch Athryalla might be a too tough nut to crack. But before we can share our success with Kasvarina, Kieran Sentarcore and Asrabey, we spot said Dreadnought...

Oh my, these sketches are lovely! I'm already in love with Gatria (yeah, she does look like new Catra!) Marcel is too beautiful to be true ;) And umm... you sure that Mona is not an Eladrin because she looks very very similar to my Eladrin character in our campaign :D And don't get me started...

Audience in the City of Light and Darkness Next, we come across a training ground and spot a group of people who are practicing unarmed combat. They spot us pretty quickly and pause their training to bombard us with questions. Most of them are very much intrigued by Carlyle as they...

Uh, finally someone who is not known as an action star first and foremost :) Now could we please get more than one woman in the main party? I love Michelle, but I'd hate having her be the token girl

Question is, will he be a camouflaging mastermind with a really bad long-term memory? :D

Thank you for sharing your vision of the early Elfaivaran days after the Malice, this makes so much more sense now! I can only imagine how detailed the different places in ZG would have been with a complete Campaign Setting. And yep, I agree that a whole paragraph on just one place in Sentosa...

A fractured mind and a broken heart After Desok has left again, Kasvarina finally smiles for the first time as she now clearly remembers the moment when we met last time. Even though she admits that her whole sense of time and memory is completely muddled right now. Which appears to be utterly...

A roaring welcome We continue to scout the city in search for the other missing Porteurs du Mort, but only find the occasional pool where what seems to be images of Eladrin are added in the reflection of the sunlight. They seem oddly real though and as we get closer they appear to...

The best parts of SAO are the music and the abridged series. The first few episodes were okay, but the main character is bland, as you said, as he is the typical light novel self insert power fantasy boy.

Nah, you completely underestimate the role the East, especially Japan, had on the Fantasy RPG genre. And the prevalence of Nintendo in the late 80's would have pathed its way to the West as well. I think there would still be a Legend of Zelda and the likes. Whether or not turn-based styles would...

I'd think the equivalent of "anime" would be "TTRPG" and not D&D. You cannot compare Berserk to ShinChan to Sailor Moon to HolyYoungMen to Monster to Madoka to Love Hina to anything Ghibli (and don't get me started at the more R rated stuff).

Yeah, it is hard because of course the WC devs were huge fans of both D&D and Warhammer, but several influences point to a specific influence of the Forgotten Realms. And we can be sure that Greenwood would have published his works and therefore his world in one way or another.

Am I the only one who is quite astonished by the merger of these character sketches with what looks like a very much polished background? Especially as I am totally capable of producing the former and utterly unable of doing the latter. (No, really, the poses remind me 100% of my Sailor Moon...

That sounds like a damn interesting setting. I'm always more keen on seeing and playing in worlds that offer unique quirks and rules instead of going with "PHB rules work somehow" no matter how crazy the setting. As long as it is consistent that is. Also, Shaha would make a good ally for the...

Session 47 Final Preparations After that rather long talk, we start preparations for our trip to Elfaivar. But before we even pack our luggage, we decide to wrap up as much as we can as we don't know when we'd be able to return to Flint. First, we pay Vitus Sigismund a last visit. It...

Haha, sure, but it totally worked since I got an Email notification about the thread reply :D

A future uncertain: Gabriel and Auryn As soon as we return back to Carlyle's house in Stray River, he asks Auryn what's wrong with her as she is clearly not her usual self right now. But she just shakes her head and says that she's worried about Morris Dawkins' health and fears that...
