    The Age of Worms - Morrus' Campaign - Finished 6th August!!

    Having collected the crossbows and examined the strange gelatinous substance on the tips of the arrows, we opened the doors, which led onto a corridor which was practically lined with doors. “This must be where Sauron lives,” quipped Torvig. “Because there are more doors.” We all groaned...

    The Age of Worms - Morrus' Campaign - Finished 6th August!!

    Another disclaimer. This series of posts sees more drunken party exploration. And undead. Undead are gruesome. That’s all I’ve got to say on the subject. After another evening spent drinking, the 10 minute moonlit walk to the observatory was filled with singing and suddenly frantically...

    Feats for vetting.

    I lack the cash to justify taking the Craft Wondrous Item feat that I was aiming at. Can I put in my bid for "Versatile Performer" from Complete Adventurer? I mentioned it before, but need to flesh it out a bit now. It allows me to gain my Int bonus (ie. 2) extra capacities for music...

    What's the Diplomacy DC for organising a lynch mob? :p

    Learning spells....

    To say nothing of 50(?)gp per page which you don't have. There's something in the rules about familiarising yourself with someone else's spellbook, isn't there?

    Nik's story hour......

    I thought I did one in the end? Oh well, no harm, no foul. And Doug didn't have web access at the time. Can we send him a link to this page, in the meantime?

    The Age of Worms - Morrus' Campaign - Finished 6th August!!

    About the same as your Fort save, Mr save-or-die? New session.... ur... when I've written it. Featuring betrayal, undead, near-death crises, undead, arguments, and the undead! Edit: Oh, and Darmanicus uses up his "I've done a silly thing" token.

    The Age of Worms - Morrus' Campaign - Finished 6th August!!

    After actually managing to lift a few ales with our tired arms, we rested for the night, and headed to Alastor’s family farm, where he had told us the bodies were buried. To our absolute horror, we found the gravestones, only to see that they had been dug up recently. All 4 of the bodies were...

    The Age of Worms - Morrus' Campaign - Finished 6th August!!

    We returned to the room above, and lit the red lantern. Once in place, there was a whooshing noise from above the indigo lantern, where the wind-blowing head had nearly killed several of us the previous day. Emboldened by our successes, we climbed back up, and looked around, to see that the face...

    The Age of Worms - Morrus' Campaign - Finished 6th August!!

    The next morning, cold and slightly hung over, we returned to the Whispering Cairn. It looked gloomier and far less inviting than it had the previous night, and there was a bit of an argument over whether we should go back in. Treasure won out, and we decided to go through the hole under the...

    The Age of Worms - Morrus' Campaign - Finished 6th August!!

    We returned to the sarcophagus and decided to have a sit down. It was then, leaning against the heavy stone box, that we noticed it rocking… It was designed to move on its base! We leant swiftly to the task, and the huge stone box was moved around to point at the yellow lantern. A grinding...

    The Age of Worms - Morrus' Campaign - Finished 6th August!!

    Down the stairs, we found ourselves in a large room with 7 short passages leading to dark lanterns hanging from chains, each a different colour. The indigo and red lanterns both missing, whilst a flame in the green lantern lit the entire room in a ghastly green flickering light. In the centre of...

    The Age of Worms - Morrus' Campaign - Finished 6th August!!

    The local boatman was quickly paid (and offered the last of our beer) to row us across the lake, so keen were we to get started, and it was very soon that we stood listening to the strange whistling of the breeze blowing out of the dark cave-mouth. Inside, the whistling condensed to the same...

    The Age of Worms - Morrus' Campaign - Finished 6th August!!

    SPOILER WARNING: As if being called an “Age of Worms” Story Hour wasn’t obvious enough, this is likely to give away a few bits of the ‘Age of Worms’ campaign. I don’t know what those bits are yet. I’m just playing in the campaign… The Campaign makes its start in Diamond Lake, a two-bit mining...

    OK. Off to post it properly now I've learned Doug's name is 'Niccolo'. Going to stick 'Morrus' in the title somewhere just 'coz that'll treble the readership!
