Ride up attached to the bottom of their spiffy elevators. Find the uber-sword first (you'll need some sort of advantage here, since manpower obviously don't cut it). The army leaves the city when the sword does. . . . . . . . -- Eric

Would it? Does the truth change because you eliminate its advocate? To Fall is to reject that which you have experienced to be true, in favour of that which you know, in your heart, to be false. Do we believe in Soneillon's Choice? Slay me or bed me, Eadric: you will need to choose sooner or...

Hopefully, he's going to be a guy who's chock full of information about what the heck is going on in Het Brannoi. ;) . . . . . . . -- Eric

I believe Sep is granting retroactive information from the web of motes, based on the idea that Mostin's current "diminished" intellect can't remember everything he learned from the web at once. Seems to me to be a wise choice compared to telling the player everything that his PC with god-like...

Another thought... does Graz'zt have a silver cord? Clearly, the implication in the story is projection, not plane shift. In both 3.0 and 3.5, severing the cord is fatal. "If the cord is broken, the character is killed, astrally and materially." Is this the rash act our heroes have been...

Just curious: has anyone actually made a thread to discuss the philosophy of Sep's Story Hour? You know, define what infinities we are talking about, decide if the statement "I serve the dialectic" never doesn't apply, and consider the implications of Ortwin's epic bluff skill actually being...

More please (as time permits, I'm sure you're busy). In retrospect, this has been one of my favorite story hours, especially for inspiring me for my game, as opposed to "just" a good read. I am curious: how does your Rome compensate militarily for lack of magical "artillery"? I can think of...

If you want the PCs to try to pry info out of him, I suggest he drop clever comments of the "I know more about you than I should" variety. He want's to give away that he knows them and has information they want, but the less he has to give away, the better. That way, there's more he can charge...

Well, it'll make formation fighting that much more important. PCs tend to be mixed groups, so it will likely make the enemies more powerful. Not that spear formation fighting isn't already pretty powerful: You solo charge the front line of a spear formation in the current rules, you're...

Try something along the lines of -price or -msrp. Then again, I get interesting hits in my first 10 (without filtering), which were: WotC D20 Modern page Modern SRD D20 Modern for Neverwinter Nights x2 Storefronts x2 D20 Modern Character Sheets / Fan site Reviews x2 MSN Group Let me know if...

Right, then, I'm all caught up. Anarie is what, a Ranger / Wizard / Thief? I caught 1st level spells, tumbling, and long sword use. If she's a cleric as well, I promise to be very amused. :) . . . . . . . -- Eric

I take it that didn't come out as complimentary in tone as I intended. Apologies; my only excuse is that it was posted at 12:00am after working through the weekend. I'd make another attempt, but I think I should wait until I can think a bit more clearly. No offense intended. . . . . . . ...

I've made it as far as the (second) death of Jeremy, reading from the beginning, and accidentally spoilered myself on Derek while scrolling. Definitely an interesting story to read. ('Though I must admit that I'm probably among those who prefer a different style at the table.) Anyhow, I know...

Ack! I should have been paying more attention to the fact that I was approaching the end... now whatever shall I do while I await the next installment? Great story, definitely makes me want to go browse through my old Mythic Rome book. . . . . . . . -- Eric

I just managed to finish reading, from the beginning (over the course of a week or so). Enjoyed the story, thanks for the continuing dedication to putting it together. Interestingly, I actually started with Rel's SH,... he's a walking advertisement for you. One brief question that I seem to...

As a variation on Kahuna's theme: with horror, you suddenly realize that the great outer god OA is nearing completion of his nefarious plans. None is aware of his plans -- not the gods, not his followers, not even the great cosmic over-god whos presence you sensed in the mystical letters D.M...

Aid another gives a +2 bonus, and succeeds about 3/4 the time for a competent professional (+4 skill bonus). Thus, your character can make decisions about as well as a brilliant leader (WIS 22) with a staff of 35 professional assistants. . . . . . . . -- Eric PS -- Attributes scale linearly...

Cost you the patronage of your FLGS? I assume there's a story here? I also recently introduced 3 women to the hobby. Two sound like they plan to stick with it. . . . . . . . -- Eric

Glad to have you back. . . . . . . . -- Eric

Of the groups I've been in recently, the core groups break down (female:male) as 1:2, 2:2, 2:5, 0:6, and 2:2. Adding in people who pass through but don't stay, it becomes 3:7, 2:3, 2:5, 0:9, and 4:2. Too bad we don't have access to the core WotC stats from their survey. I'd be curious if the...
