    Dr. Si's Curse of the Crimson Throne - Seven Days to the Grave

    Dejected, Dj'hân sighs loudly and turns to his draconic companion. "So much for teamwork." The urchin rolls his eyes and pulls the loose brim of the oversized stocking cap over his mouth for a moment. "We're on our way over to Vincario's. Have another cookie." Turning his attention back to...

    Do you like rolling?

    Interesting. I would likewise opt for the $10. So it seems that my preference for taking 10 whenever possible is likewise symptomatic of my preferred risk-aversion strategy. I'd prefer a moderate success rather than run the risk of failure.

    Do you like rolling?

    Reminds me of the time I was a party with friends and was joking around with one of them about earning XP for successfully opening an oddly tricky bottle of wine. My non-gamer girlfriend overhears us and tries to join in on our mirth by making some kind of computer jargon joke; she'd understood...

    Dj'hân blurts out: "Wait! I don't wanna keep her!"

    Do you like rolling?

    I've been mulling the issue of dice rolling lately. These thoughts arose when I began to notice my reluctance to roll dice in favour of taking 10 or taking 20. Rolling dice is an integral part of most tabletop RPGs. Their random results emulate the vagaries of characters pitting their skills...

    What armor is this?

    Sounds like the Dragonscale Husk alternate class feature, from Dragon Magic IIRC.

    How do people handle finding enemy spellbooks?

    Oh, so these guys are attacking me because they happen to recognize the distinctive scent of their deceased friend's fireballs? Sorry, but if a DM pulled this kind of cheese in play I'd call shenanigans on him. :hmm:

    So a Ranger and his bear walk into a tavern...

    "ugly one-horned mule!"

    Dr. Si's Curse of the Crimson Throne - Seven Days to the Grave

    In response Dj'hân merely flips the liripoop back onto his head while rolling his eyes. I'm inside your hat! Am I the only one who hears Ralph's voice whenever Trinia speaks? :heh: Majenko seems literally crestfallen while Dj'hân sticks out his bottom lip in a pout. "But... we're a team!..."

    Dr. Si's Curse of the Crimson Throne - Seven Days to the Grave

    You keep using that word. I don't think it means what you think it means.

    Dr. Si's Curse of the Crimson Throne - Seven Days to the Grave

    Majenko responds to the praise by sitting back on his haunches and curling his long sinuous body into a regal pose; one more appropriate for a wyrm many hundreds of times his size. The tiny dragon then merely nods in acknowledgement. Standing next to the proud reptile, Dj'hân can't help but roll...

    Dr. Si's Curse of the Crimson Throne - Seven Days to the Grave

    Skirting the outside edge of the curtain wall crenelations, discreetly out of sight of the guardsmen and the crowd in the courtyard, Dj'hân and Majenko are momentarily startled by the sound of Blackjack's flash pellet. Dj'hân pauses in mid air to get his bearings and his pseudodragon companion...

    Dr. Si's Curse of the Crimson Throne - Seven Days to the Grave

    Not wanting to be left out of the sudden excitement, but not yet sure of how to participate, Dj'hân stands and leaps fearlessly from the water spout. As if he'd always been capable of the feat, the urchin idly draws the winds to himself and rides them up over the rooftops while giggling...

    Great lines

    My young and inexperienced hatchling gold dragon PC was having trouble grasping the meaning of the word "soul" that the other PCs bringing up in casual conversation. As he usually did when confronted with a new or confusing word (he was only a few months out of the egg) he asked the others for...

    Dr. Si's Curse of the Crimson Throne OOC

    That reminds me that Dj'hân should have you guys over to his hat for a barbecue sometime soon. :p

    Dr. Si's Curse of the Crimson Throne - Seven Days to the Grave

    Sitting discreetly upon a nearby imp-shaped waterspout overlooking the courtyard, Dj'hân and Majenko watch the folk hero's grandstanding; the urchin clapping gayly at the man's swashbuckling theatrics. For his part, the pseudodragon ignores the distracting tumult raised by the crowd and focuses...

    Dr. Si's Curse of the Crimson Throne - Seven Days to the Grave

    Sitting on the edge of the kitchen table Dj'hân swings his tiny feet back and forth; bellying the grave nature of their conversation. "This is dumb. Maybe tha dumb girl didn't do anything bad. But maybe we're tha dumb ones for trustin her when we don't know a lick bout her. And what does tha...

    Dr. Si's Curse of the Crimson Throne OOC

    Doc, Dj'hân will ask Ol' Jeremiah if he'd be willing double the extra-dimensional capacity of his liripoop up to 120 lbs in exchange for the spellbook and an additional 185 gold sails. That'd bring it in line with a standard handy haversack.

    Dr. Si's Curse of the Crimson Throne OOC

    I think it'll be enough if we get a 100% exchange for it. After all, we get first pick out of anything magical we pick up. ;) Yeah... Uhm, I wouldn't say we're really "associates" of his so much as I would say that neither of us has yet to kill the other... Besides, seeing as how he's knee deep...
