    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour - (Updated 27July2025)

    In progress at the moment. I just finished up a clinical rotation and I want to do several updates over this month since I have the month off.

    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour - (Updated 27July2025)

    Thank you for answering that one for me! I would have actually explained something else because I didn't get the question was about the meaning of antipeak. I was going to address what Shemeska was obliquely referring to: that people she whips with razorvine, and draws blood from, the razorvine...

    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour - (Updated 27July2025)

    You can imagine a circle of 'loths repeatedly stabbing one another, with each of them laughing and going, "Hahaha I'm brilliant! Look at how much those fools are getting hurt!" Relatively late on a full and open tell-all on Vorkannis. There will be repeated hints prior to that. The seeming...

    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour - (Updated 27July2025)

    Athas was a means to an end. There are already hints as to why and what for. There are suggestions that Daru's box is similar in some capacity to Ghyris Vast's "Divinity Leech" and that both were designed by Lazarius ibn Shartalan, The Architect. Now one of those was clearly operating on behalf...

    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour - (Updated 27July2025)

    It'll be resolved within this storyhour. I'm thinking of a few specific incidents involving some specific 'loths being very true to their nature.

    I'm glad that you think that I do them justice! And as for showing them as they truly are: Oh, you 'aint seen nothing yet.

    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour - (Updated 27July2025)

    Villain interludes before we rejoin our heroes! **** The doors into the inner sanctum of Shylara the Manged loomed high, twenty feet at their peak, a dull black, flecked with crimson mineral inclusions, locked in place and surrounded by the pulsing, flesh-like matrix of the Tower of Incarnate...

    Yes it is. My work has been under that name for about a year and a half, since 'Concordance of Rivals'.

    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour - (Updated 27July2025)

    blush I'd be writing this all for myself for fun anyway, but knowing that you folks enjoy it makes it a genuine pleasure. Thank you! And, storyhour aside, just wait until I can show off the not-yet-published stuff I have in the pipeline for Pathfinder. <3

    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour - (Updated 27July2025)

    And as a total aside to the Storyhour, here's a link to some fiction that I wrote for the Paizo Blog as a teaser prelude to the Agents of Edgewatch Adventure Path (which I wrote volume 6 of) that has a cameo by this storyhour's very own Nisha Starweather. Nisha (or rather an interation of the...

    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour - (Updated 27July2025)

    You're certainly welcome! If I can find them I'd be open to it, but much of what I did at times wasn't strongly pinned down by written rules and a lot of stuff was purely narrative driven. Also it was my first campaign that I ever ran and numbers were not precisely my forte at that point in...

    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour - (Updated 27July2025)

    That's one of the two things seen so far that connect to what Daru ib Shamiq said. :)

    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour - (Updated 27July2025)

    Dregoth stepped forward, the cracked flesh of his draconic muzzle split to a predator’s smile, and as he descended the steps from his throne it became transparently obvious that his eyes were fixed on Daru’s box and not at all on the companions who had arrived carrying it. They were immaterial...

    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour - (Updated 27July2025)

    The cavern was devoid of light and indeed devoid of life itself, save for the chosen children of the living god, the great one in whose service the heptad of guards served with their very lives, they who presently stood silent watch over the mock doorway cut into the solid rock before them...

    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour - (Updated 27July2025)

    Clinical rotations for the past two months. 4th year of pharmacy school. I have this month off, but of course accepted some freelance work. That said I -will- have an update this month, and it's already in progress. Apologies for the prolonged delay.

    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour - (Updated 27July2025)

    We played with 3e rules, and since I never actually played 2e, I never used any of the specific, thematic but IMO ultra fiddly rules that Planescape had regarding clerics and other things as you moved around the planes. As for how I handled Athas, you'll see soon enough. The players were like...

    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour - (Updated 27July2025)

    “F*ck…” Clueless spat, staring down at Daru’s damnable box. The inhuman face carved into its surface stared back at him maliciously, lips and teeth stained red with slowly drying blood. They’d of course been responsible for delivering it to its victim, though of course the necromancer had...

    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour - (Updated 27July2025)

    Unlikely, as I have an unannounced Pathfinder project final draft due on Monday, and a pharmacotherapy exam on Tuesday. A week after that is not an unreasonable thought however. :)

    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour - (Updated 27July2025)

    Six sets of eyes blinked in unison, not at the appearance of the necromancer, Muroth Chalmar, but at his statement, and the implication that Tristol was one of Mystra’s Chosen. The aasimar turned around with a brief, embarrassed smile and waved off the blizzard of questions. “He’ll explain...
