Shadowjack looks around in alarm. "Whoa, whoa, now. No reason to get... never mind, bad time for puns... uh, really angry and such. But you look like you're ready to burn your mates - you know, the guys who are going to take care of you when someone big comes knocking."

Wonderful stuff, as always! I'm glad to see you updating again. Also, are we going to see an update to the Rogues' Gallery thread? Haven

Oh, wow. That's way cool. I'm glad it came across well in the campaign - I think that a lot of the time, a series of sessions this dark would run the risk of depressing the players as well as the characters. ;) Did Aesendal's player drop out of the campaign entirely? What did Shale's player...

These poor, poor PCs. It's a whole lot of kicking them while they're down at this point. I hope things eventually get better for them, but that's only because it seems like they don't have a lot left to lose. Haven

Shadowjack nods slowly. "I've a few contacts. I'm... not terribly sure where to start, and I don't hold all of them in exactly the highest regard. But we'll weasel something out of them, I'm sure." "Sure is a shame not to use all these new toys, though." He inspects the bracers critically...

Interpreting Karaka’s dream has grown even more challenging with what we’ve learned in the past few hours, and I now fear that we are going far astray. We approached the tower of ice and saw that there was a small patch of snow-covered ground near its base, free from the sinister green fog...

"Well, if you're in the hole for a long time, you'll eventually decide to get out. Once you actually start trying to leave, it won't take you more than a minute. I don't think the space's existence is dependent on my life in any particular way. Instead, I'm sending you to a place that already...

Shadowjack frowns. "Hard to say, actually. 'Nowhere'? A sort of metaphysical place between places? Up my sleeve? You were in the nonexistent space between one end of an open portal and the other." "You know, now that I'm working with other folks, I can think of even more applications for...

"Excellent, Sunspot. Very... brave." With a moment's concentration, Shadowjack reaches out and grasps Sunspot's arm, at which point Sunspot vanishes without a trace. To the others, he says while walking across the room, "Now then. Sunspot is fine, but... elsewhere. I don't exactly...

Down in the training room, Shadowjack completes some perfunctory warmup exercises. Once some of the others arrive, he grins with a sort of faux-malice and says, "I do have one other trick that I'd like to show off. Do I have a volunteer?"

Wow. These PCs just can't catch a break! If el-remmen hadn't already claimed the name, "Out of the Frying Pan" would apply to this SH rather nicely. ;) Yay, update! Haven

I've been wicked busy for the past two weeks. My wicked busy should come to a merciful end in the next 2-3 days, absolute tops. I promise. Haven

Yep, I'm still around. Just lurkified. ;) Haven

I certainly don't go out of my way to avoid killing the characters. Though in my most recent campaign (ended last night, unless I wind up not moving to another state as I intend), I only killed one PC, and that was with a crit from a large greataxe wielded by a ogre with better than normal...

Shadowjack picks up the uniform and vanishes briefly. About ten minutes later, he reappears, fully decked out. "Boots still need some breaking in. But the measurements are spot on." With a crooked grin, he adds, "Not a bad first effort." Moving a few paces away from his new comrades, he...

I learned "necromancy," among other things, and from it derived "necropolis." I'm still a little unclear on what exactly a "fane" might be, aside from a great place to go adventuring. "Codex," "libram," "somatic," "sepia" (I remember being surprised when this came up in a school vocabulary...

21) Barkskin: +2 enhancement bonus to natural armor at CL 3, +1/6 levels, max +5 22) Various polymorphing effects that change your natural armor bonus from +0 (most PC races, anyway) to something higher. Stacks with #21. Haven

So, are we continuing this or not? Haven

The plan, I am relieved to say, has changed. The morning after the battle, Karaka ate some seeds and reported this vision to us: as he was flying, burning snow fell from the sky. There was a creature of blackness overhead that shut out all light. The wind pierced his wings and he fell. He...

Shadowjack grins. "We know Voice won't try to control us just like we know I won't 'accidentally' teleport one or more of us into the heart of a volcano. No matter who you are, it's bad policy to sell out the only people who are looking out for you. Am I right, Voice?"
