    Challenging my high-lvl group (NPCs and monsters; my players shouldn't read this!)

    With respect to your last couple of updates: Very cool encounter in the Defenders' supposedly safe castle. So, what is it? A cross between a Gibbering Mouther and a Chaos Beast? I am particularly interested in what magical protections you had it use. Creative uses of spells and powers is...

    DoctorB's Legacy of Alexander Story Hour

    Under the Trees After only a few minutes of walking, Selmi heard the rumble of hooves, like a giant cavalry charge. Looking into the clearing to his left, he saw two great and twisted Boars charging at them. Toiva faced down one of the behemoths and took serious wounds in the process. As the...

    Five Men Running: The Spanish story hour (last updated Oct 25th)

    Por fin, puedo practicar mi castellano y leer de jugando (o "gaming" como digo en ingles) al mismo tiempo. [Vivía en España en 1995-6 y me encanta Andalucia. En cual parte viveis? He perdido tantas palabras que no se si podria escribir bastante bien. Pido perdon por mis muchos...

    DoctorB's Legacy of Alexander Story Hour

    Under the Trees “I should have known better,” Selmi Hewflank thought to himself as the Champions of the Lady marched into the deep Tolnan forest to take on a corrupted Heart Oak. A dwarven priest of the Mountain, Selmi had once done great deeds on his own in a group of adventurers who fought...

    Challenging my high-lvl group (NPCs and monsters; my players shouldn't read this!)

    A few random thoughts: With a party as powerful as the Defenders, the White Kingdom cannot win with pure force. I think it might be time for guile and assassination. Is there a way the White Kingdom can get someone close without being detected? Perhaps an assassin who looks like someone the...

    Piratecat's GenCon report

    I was sad to miss out on the chance to say goodbye to the Safe House, at least for a while. Did KC clean up in the CMT? How did you guys like the new schedule? Do you prefer the old 4 slots? What are they going to do in Indy I wonder?

    DoctorB's Legacy of Alexander Story Hour

    A Tolnan Ritual It was night when the Tolnan patrol caught them. For three days, Hevian had led the Champions around the battle lines and into Tolna. The brooding trees seemed to give up an arrow, which bounced off Joy’s armor. As the Champions prepared for battle, Hevian ran out to stop the...

    About two full sessions, not counting the one we have tomorrow. I hope to get more up before then.

    DoctorB's Legacy of Alexander Story Hour

    The man could have been Liana’s brother. Dark skin and golden eyes framed by black hair. Though his ears were slightly pointed he exhibited Stredan as well as Tolnan blood. He wore only a simple brown robe and carried nothing but the silver disk holy symbol around his neck. “My name is...

    Divine intrigue overused...!

    Some people here have implicitly made this distinction, but campaigns revolving around gods are different from campaigns revolving around religion. My own world does not have the gods taking very active part in the world, but religious confilct is the prime motivator of the story. The most...

    Great work! I particularly like the Necropede picture.

    DoctorB's Legacy of Alexander Story Hour

    The Stredan camp buzzed with activity. Thousands of soldiers had that expectant impatience that indicated they would be going into battle soon. A larger tent stood formed the center of the maelstrom and it was inside that tent the Champions found themselves. They had passed a keep packed with...

    DoctorB's Legacy of Alexander Story Hour

    Under the Trees Again, Arin’s silver-gray wings rode the wind over the Dwarvenrealm, but now he and Liana were not on a joyride. Instead, both watched the east with concern and interest. The Champions had been grim at the news of fires in the great forest, but they needed to know more before...

    Rakshasa spell immunity -- clarification needed

    I need to resurrect this thread for a moment. What I want to know is if a Paladin's Detect Evil should work against a Rakshasa... The ability is a "spell-like ability" but Detect Evil does not allow SR.

    So no way to add Prestige classes in the program? That would be a disappointment. I assume the classes from the DMG will be there at least. ALL of the players in my game now have prestige classes (one of them home-brewed). This is an important feature to me... Thanks for all the great info, Eric!

    The Flight Arin could not be sure of Liana’s disposition towards him since she had discovered what he was. He tried to spend time with her when she wanted him to and leave her alone when she needed to think. Finally, he decided to ask her. “Would you like to… uh… go flying sometime?” Her...

    DoctorB's Legacy of Alexander Story Hour

    Galena Galena had died and gone to heaven, but only for a little while. She had asked Onyx where he drew his arcane learning from, and it was a testament to their new friendship that he showed her. Near a little-used corridor in the center of the dwarvenrealm was a chamber with a locked door...

    DoctorB's Legacy of Alexander Story Hour

    Return of the Wolfcaller Silence filled the packed burial chamber. Only the last echoes of Joy’s words disturbed the air. Rolf Wolfcaller lay on a stone slab adorned for a funeral. Around Joy and the other Champions stood the Council of Nine, leaders of the Dwarvenrealm as well as many...

    DoctorB's Legacy of Alexander Story Hour

    Nine Heads, No Waiting Seeming to notice the raggedly dressed drow in the rear of the party for the first time, Sidroc asked, “Do you want to remove the collaborator before we go further.” “Well,” Cobbe started. “He is not exactly a collaborator but an escaped slave from somewhere below. He...
