"Not particularly. I mean, the last time I tried to 'port, I didn't leave as early as I should've, and got hit with about half a dozen stuns. But that wasn't a failure of my teleportation. I'm sure there are things that could shut me down, but I haven't seen 'em yet."

"Well, Stonewall, I've never managed to leave the planet under my own power. But I can get a decently large number of people from here to Shanghai, or anywhere in between, in about six seconds flat."

At the very least, I'm certain I'd be amused to learn more about the behind-the-scenes life of CITY. Haven

Re: chokers - Mainly I think it's a poorly written monster, because a full action plus a standard action in a round is heinous (and, as you point out, unique to chokers). Of course, it takes the pretty serious tweak that Elephant has used to get them into broken territory, since the "average"...

Re: halfling (Jeeral Smoketallow) - I am currently setting things up so that the contents of the room justify his continuing presence there. He doesn't ever need to leave, because he's a fifth-level cleric and can cast create food and water. He doesn't want to leave because the pillar on the...

I'd venture to say that the class would be too powerful in the hands of a wizard or (even worse) sorcerer - they would be sacrificing almost nothing, improving their hit dice and Fort saves, and gaining a handful of other abilities including bonus spells known. Therefore, if you were inclined...

Heck, maybe the ring gives him a wracking cough and causes his hair to fall out. Okay, never mind, I don't want to get sued. ;) Haven

And just think, earlier today I was wondering when I'd see another update to this marvelous story hour. In an adventure like this one, who needs monsters? It certainly looks bad enough for our heroes at this point. Haven

I frankly think that your idea is brilliant, Piratecat. With your permission, I'd be very happy to include that character (and his incredibly squalid situation) in my own plans for the room. If you'd prefer I didn't, just say so. Haven

Gotcha. Do I post my "finished" version here (once I write it, I mean), or do I email it to someone? Haven

I have an idea for Area 10, though I'll explain where I'm going with it before I lay further claim to the area. The depiction of the waterways connection 10 to 6 and 8 suggests to me that the passages are entirely submerged, and thus more difficult to find. The dragons, of course, can get...

Hey, I've been a fan of Sepulchrave, Piratecat, and others for a long time now... I know a thing or two about the agonizing wait for updates. ;) Haven

Wow. I started reading a few days ago, and now I've caught up. How about an update to celebrate my arrival? ;) This is an incredible story hour. I wish I had both the drive and the talent to turn my games into something like this. Haven

With reference to the scenario you presented, maybe there's a password or something to enter the city safely, and they first have to divine upon and teleport to those NPCs and persuade them to hand over the password. Warding areas against teleportation is edging the line of "negating the PCs'...

"Yeah, Stonewall, what's a group without names and maybe some kind of suit? I'll answer to Shadowjack. I'm a teleporter, mainly. Not much of a fighter, to tell the truth, but I'm guessing you've already got that covered. "Not to be blunt, but what do the rest of you do?"

Shadowjack here.

Another victory like this one, and all is lost. We took the ship back to where we had first set down and left it in the air, as before. Hiking through the countryside, we came to a pass between two boulders. Fel scouted ahead and spotted two winged white baboon-like creatures chasing a...

There are only seven classes allowed in my campaign. The barbarian, fighter, monk, and rogue are basically unchanged. The elementalist is the only primary caster class, based on the shugenja but choosing three of six elements (Air, Fire, Metal, Stone, Water, Wood) rather than four-plus-void...

That sounds like it was a really cool scene. =) Since something similar happened to a character of mine in a LARP just this past weekend, I'm eager to see how this turns out! Haven

Yay, you're back! Looks like I have a lot of fanboi praise to rewrite. ;) Haven
