Good fight. Nice to see Drik and Drok coming to the rescue!

Certainly some interesting ideas in there. As regards adventure despite the existence of a "utopian" society, you might want to consider how Iain M Banks handled his "Culture" novels - essentially conflict still occurs at the edges, where the Culture rubs up against other societies.

After a bit of a hiatus, I'm up to date with the story again. Still loving it. :)

Liking the interplay between the characters. And waiting to see what the hells it is indeed :)

Great update, Nthal.

Nasty trick that ... I must remember to borrow it.

Very good update. Now I'm looking forward to you giving the hobgoblins a good kicking :devilish:

I just assumed it was a long rest power, with variant rules as to what constitutes a long rest :)

Well, who knew I had "Summon Nthal" on my spell list?

Damn! I've caught up! I'm still thoroughly enjoying this, Nthal. But now I've got to wait for more ... :(

Hey Nthal. Just wanted you to know I'm really enjoying the story. I'm only at the early stages still (reading it in dribs and drabs at work), but at least that means I've still got plenty to read ... :) Keep up the good work.

I agree that a player shouldn't really be looking in the MM during a game. But in all honesty I'm less bothered about that sort of thing these days than I used to be. The thing is that coming down on that sort of thing really just penalises new players. If you know a monster's strengths and...

In the original adventure in Dungeon 106, the sovereign glue (3 ounces) is amongst the treasure in area 22 "abandoned quarters"

An idea that occurs to me (bear in mind that this are off the top of my head and hasn't been fully thought through let alone tested in any way whatsoever) is to make healing spells rituals that can't be used in the midst of combat. It would certainly make individual combats scarier. You'd...

I think these are supposed to delineate the "zones" mentioned in the second bullet point at the top of page 166. The idea being that if you go for that option, once you choose where the players are stationed - one of the buildings or the gate - you only fully run the battle in that zone, with...

I don't see the need for any more than one set of racial stats for elves (or for any other race) different cultures/backgrounds foregrounding different skills is fine, but I don't see why that should bleed over into ability scores

The miniature in the OP is from Brigade Models' "Celtos" range, specifically CLT-501 Morrigan Priestess of the Horned God, from the Fir Bolg faction: http://www.brigademodels.co.uk/PDF/CeltosFirBolg.pdf

That wand sees a lot of use from my (also 3rd level) party too!

I'd be happy with that. Indeed, I think its the very best we can hope for. The problem for me is that a single adventure (even at the length of a lot of modern films) cannot hope to capture what for me is the true essence of playing D&D - which is having a character who, over multiple adventures...

Not a bad idea. How about bracers of defence? Ring of protection against fire? Staff of the woodlands?
