    The Liberation of Tenh (updated April 24)

    Oh, they looted Hennet. :) IIRC, they got a rod of absorption, and a carpet of flying off of him before they ran like . . . er . . . withdrew to a stronger tactical position (i.e. Tenh). If Hennet wastes Lucius, the Boon Companions should expect to get the Boneheart treatment. The prosepect...

    Retro Story Hour: (Contact's) Temple of Elemental Evil 2!

    Just out of curiosity, did anyone else here roll up a party for the new(ish) Atari Temple of Elemental Evil game that had Heydricus, Prisantha, Jespo Crim, Lucius, and Tisha in it? Did they have a TPK in the moathouse? Or was it just me?

    The Liberation of Tenh (updated April 24)

    Ready’reat 4, CY 593 84—Breakin’ up is hard to do (Part 2). “You don’t hyphenate ‘Druid f-ckers.’” Prisantha hands Mialec’s minutes back, her extensive revisions in sepia ink. Mialec scans the notes looking for Heydricus’ handwriting, but returns the papers to her haversack dejectedly. “Did...

    The Liberation of Tenh (updated April 24)

    Heydricus' player DM'ed the encounter with the iconics. I was running the story up until Lucius "decided" that he, Jespo and Hastur should go get Jespo's stuff. Chris ran the encounter with Hennet and had me *rolling* on the floor with his rock star cum frat boy take on the iconics. Hastur is...

    That's a really great idea. If Heydricus' player gives my drawing tablet back, it might even happen. :)

    The Liberation of Tenh (updated April 24)

    Patchwall 25, CY 593 83—Gossip is what they call espionage when no lives are at stake. A Greyhawk City winter isn’t like a winter anywhere else. Greyhawkers seem to thrive on the cold, and if anything, the city becomes more active once the temperatures drop. While Heydricus’ Tenha are...

    The Liberation of Tenh (updated April 24)

    "Several of the Shieldlanders were captured before the mob was driven off, and Lucius sets to work on one of them. After a rather lengthy ‘session’ during which he wrests forth the names of the civic leaders in the refugee camps, he proposes a killing spree. A quick, and murderous foray into...

    Company of the Random Encounter DM / Plot Thread (CotRE Players Stay Out!)

    Do they hack stuff to pieces in fairy tales? 'Cause they sure do in D&D. It would be cool to play with the idea that characters go in and out of faerie (or an alt space/time continum) in the middle of battles. That PCs could be transported to another place, spend several rounds there, then...

    The Liberation of Tenh Plot Thread

    It is truly a thing of dark and majestic beauty. My evil DM glands are salivating. This is going to be a lot of fun-- a classic "old school" dungeon. But what is the lynchpin motivation? A) Rescuing the celestial emotes B) Preventing Iuz from reforming B-a) Why has Iuz sundered? B-b) How...

    The Liberation of Tenh (updated April 24)

    No, not at all. They had a terrible time keeping a straight face while I was playing teary-eyed Jespo. It was hilarious. Don't blame me, it was Barastrondo's idea! Not really. We're sticking pretty close to the canon, *except* for any bad guys directly in the path of the oncoming...

    Neither Pris or Jespo could find two schools that they could give up without giving up "signature" spells.

    Bob, he did convert to a generalist when we re-statted him for 3.5-- which raised the question, "why *hasn't* he ever cast any evocations?"

    Absolutely. Breeng it awn. Keep in mind that the Liberators are a big band of characters ranging from 16-20th level. They should level one to three times in this dungeon, unless they absolutely hate it. So a CR 16 anything is going to be sword-fodder. A really tough fight for them should...

    Patchwall 22, CY 593 82—Consolation prizes so rarely do. Jespo Crim is inconsolable. He returns from Chendl after a week-long absence, looking even more miserable than when he left. Gwendolyn is the first to see him, and when confronted by his wretched countenance, she softens and becomes...
