    Second Son of a Second Son: Timotheus' Prayers

    14 Sek 637 (afternoon) Blessed Nephthys, what are we still doing here? Now that we know Sir Quintus is still alive and we’re all rested, we should either go in and rescue him or go out and get reinforcements. Just standing around here waiting is a damn fool waste of time. I can’t believe...

    Second Son of a Second Son: Timotheus' Prayers

    13 Sek 637 (evening) Oh, blessed Nephthys. I think I may have made a mistake. Yeah, Sir Quintus got captured by lizardmen, I know. Sure, they may kill him if we don’t hurry up and track him down. And I bet Anhur and Ra really want us to do the rescue right now. But if we do go and charge...

    Second Son of a Second Son: Timotheus' Prayers

    13 Sek 637 (afternoon) Blessed Nephthys, I’m trying to make the right choices, I really am. I pushed for the Shore Road because that’s where the bandits were supposed to be. So why were they on the High Road? Just bad luck? At least it looks like the Swanns will catch ‘em. It’s too bad...

    Second Son of a Second Son: Timotheus' Prayers

    12 Sek 637 (evening) Hail, blessed Lady. Traveling south has been pretty nice. The weather’s warm and clear, and it’s nice to ride by the sea. And since I’m in front and Bleys is in back, I don’t have to see or hear him for most of the day. Oh, and speaking of the sea, we ran into some...

    Second Son of a Second Son: Timotheus' Prayers

    11 Sek 637 (evening) Blessed Nephthys, we’re finally on our way. It took us a while to get out of Sluetelot; Victoria hadn’t bought any rations and she sent Euleria to buy ‘em at the market. And she’s not the only one who wasn’t really ready to go. I can’t believe that no one thought to buy...

    Drinking and gaming?

    I ran my most recent D&D session while tipsy. This resulted in the appearance of an NPC named "Grim the Reeber." The mockery has not yet entirely faded. :p

    Party creation instead of character creation?

    Teaching that a Cube has '6 sides' with no top & bottom, induces an evil curse that pervades all academic institutions.

    Party creation instead of character creation?

    No human or god can match D&D's simultaneous 4 base class selection in 1 Game session. No human has a right to believe wrong - for that would be evil thinking. Ignorance of 4 base classes is evil, Evil DMs teach 1 party. 1 party will destroy players.

    Second Son of a Second Son: Timotheus' Prayers

    10 Sek 637 (evening) Blessed Nephthys, it looks like we have a plan, sort of, even if it’s really just a plan to wait a while and then try and come up with a plan again. Oh Goddess, these guys talk more than a bunch of fishwives on the Day of Stories. If the building caught fire they’d have...

    Second Son of a Second Son: Timotheus' Prayers

    10 Sek 637 (late morning) Blessed Nephthys, thank you again for this opportunity. I’ve never slept in such a comfortable bed all my life, or eaten such a great spread. The Tenbrooks are really laying it on thick; I haven’t drunk this much good wine even at Pyla, and that’s where they make the...

    Second Son of a Second Son: Timotheus' Prayers

    9 Sek 637 (evening) Blessed Nephthys, give me strength, because this is no band of adventurers. I’ve met them, I’ve talked to them, I’ve eaten and drank and signed that damned charter with them, and we are so not ready to go fight monsters together. From what my new companions have told me...

    Second Son of a Second Son: Timotheus' Prayers

    9 Sek 637 (morning) Blessed Nephthys, Lady of Courage, thank you for guiding me here. I thought I might spend the rest of my life as a guard and a soldier. And then, when my lord father made me a noble last year, I thought I might get stuck hanging about around the Gate, being a courtier or...

    Second Son of a Second Son: Timotheus' Prayers

    I play Timotheus Smith, a noble’s newly-recognized bastard, in el-remmen’s Second Son of a Second Son campaign. Though no priest, he has a strong (if simple) faith in Nephthys, patron of warriors and goddess of courage. As he is scarcely literate, I will be recording his prayers to Nephthys...

    Is RAISE DEAD (etc.) too readily available in most D&D campaigns?

    Usually no, because DMs who don't consider it appropriate will usually create house rules to minimize its use.

    Story Hour Setting Sites

    Not only are there many cool Story Hours to be found on this forum, but many of them have distinctive settings that are of interest to other DMs. While the details of many of these settings are only known to their creators, others have been posted up on their own websites for all the world to...

    DM's: How many PC's getting raise-dead'/resurrections in your campaigns?

    Resurrection is possible in my campaign, but it hasn't happened yet. So there's no place on the poll that I can vote. :(
