    D&D 5E (2014) Al-Qadim Moving Through the Flame

    Husam nods as he listens to the tale, “So, Jabir was a selfish man in life and death. His greed led him to rob his lord and then having not learned the error of his ways and even passing his sin to his children, he chose to rob them as well in his death. He certainly has no rightful claim to...

    D&D 5E (2014) Spell & Crossbones

    Blaise takes the proffered hand and raises it to his lips for a kiss. “Allow your conscience to be clear, madame. As Rahab lied to protect the men of God and was honored for it, so does God understand that sometimes the greater good tips the scales and rewards those with the clarity to see...

    Blast it Quickleaf! Beautiful and dangerous? You knew Blaise had a type, didn't you?

    Catching Up With ZEITGEIST: The Gears of Revolution for 5E

    I don't know the logistics of such things, but I am a patron and I would be thrilled if every so often we got a compilation PDF. I understand the staggered releases. I just want to be able to give my players one players guide PDF instead of 5. I'll also support a KS down the road if it comes...

    D&D 5E (2014) Al-Qadim Moving Through the Flame

    Husam excuses himself from the Vizier's presence and makes his way towards Nimar and his men. He holds up his hand in greeting as he approaches, "Pleasant evening to you and your men. It occurred to me as you walked away that I lack understanding. The Loregiver tells us that pride leads a man...

    D&D 5E (2014) Spell & Crossbones

    As Blaise and Etienne step outside, he sees the church nearby. "Best to keep our options open. Let me take a quick peek and see if I can grab some frocks." He looks up and down his companion, "I think I can guess your size. I'll be back in a second." Blaise Stealth Roll (stealing frocks)...

    D&D 5E (2014) Spell & Crossbones

    I wouldn't split the party if this situation didn't have a literal *dead*line attached. I promise we'll be quick. *famous last words* "Fair enough, my friend," Blaise says with a smile. "Let's try the direct approach. We'll go and speak with the jailor and try to have a word with the...

    D&D 5E (2014) I gave up--Here's a Warrior-Mage base class

    I want to make sure I'm tracking your math right (I've never played a necromancer in this edition). Vampiric touch is 3d6 at level 3. Average 10 or 11 (go with 10) damage dealt. You get half that health back (5 hp), but Vampiric Touch is concentration so you repeat it with the other chickens...

    D&D 5E (2014) I gave up--Here's a Warrior-Mage base class

    A few caveats before I comment: I’m not great at breaking the game. Some people can intuitively see unintended combos, but when it comes to spell casters, the range of spells available make that difficult for me to do. I also haven’t run any numbers for my suggestions. Take most of this as...

    D&D 5E (2014) Spell & Crossbones

    Blaise smiles as he claps the fur trader on the back. "That's the spirit! Let's try to not make a ruckus if we can help it though. This island has ears everywhere and every whisper seems to make its way back to one man. Let's see if we can avoid a spectacle that would destroy any surprise...

    D&D 5E (2014) [5e] QL's Al-Qadim Game

    I think we're at a decision point as Amina's scene wraps up. Jabir's Tomb for the rogues (and they have already been promised all the treasure, right? I'm not sure why we would go there ourselves?) or the tower for House Bakr. Presumably, either choice will upset the other group. Husam has...

    D&D 5E (2014) Al-Qadim Moving Through the Flame

    Husam accepts the mild rebuke of the Vizier with a nod of his head, "Forgive your servant for his ill considered words. I will go where you lead."

    D&D 5E (2014) Spell & Crossbones

    Blaise rolled his eyes and shook his head as the dwarf collapsed on the floor. "Good luck with that, Nia," he said with a wry smile. "I'll be back in a bit. I want to pay a visit to those Spaniards before they hang in the morning. If they have angered Blackbeard enough to have them killed, I...

    D&D 5E (2014) Spell & Crossbones

    Blaise took the hand that Smyth had placed on his shoulder to steady himself and gently maneuvered the drunk sailor into the seat beside the captain while Blaise stood from it. "You'll need to gather your strength if you intend to silence those fellows. Take a seat. Catch up." Blaise patted...

    [5e] Spell & Crossbones

    I'm on my phone this week so long posts are hard. Thateous I'm excited to meet your cook! I know we are at the tavern. Does anyone have specific goals for this scene?

    D&D 5E (2014) Al-Qadim Moving Through the Flame

    I'm assuming that Husam has no clue about the tomb and I believe the agreement was before his time Husain bent towards the Vizier and whispered, "Vizier, I trust you to lead us, but if my opinion holds weight, it seems beneath the daughter of our Sheikh to plunder the tombs of the righteously...

    D&D 5E (2014) Al-Qadim Moving Through the Flame

    Husam tries to hide his surprise at Harun's questions and fails miserably as his cheeks begin to flush. "Uh... well...," he stutters before getting a wistful look in his eyes, "She is a very kind woman. She never makes a show of it, but everyday, shortly before noon, a few urchins come to her...

    D&D 5E (2014) Spell & Crossbones

    Blaise shrugged, "It is the blessing of clarity, Nia. Van Djik stands condemned by his own principles. His soul is dead. His body is just resisting the fact. As for the djab, I am afraid that you both misunderstand me. I am not recommending a parley with the spirit. You do not negotiate...

    D&D 5E (2014) Spell & Crossbones

    Blaise gives a nod towards Nia, "My heart does not beat for the djab. It's either an obstacle or a tool. If a tool, then I say that we aim it towards our enemies. The gossip on the island is that another ship is after the same prize as us. I wonder how fast they would sail if a djab infected...
