    A Chronicle of Ice, Luck and Honour - updated 19th December

    "I, and my new found companions challenge you..." Thalin guided his hand through the air, forcing his will into the minds of as many of the Aarakocras as he could, soothing them into unconsciousness. With a series of subdued screeches, half a dozen birdmen plummeted from the air and landed with...

    A Chronicle of Ice, Luck and Honour - updated 19th December

    "Looks like we're guests of honour" With a clatter, Justicar landed on the ground beside the shaft entrance. Moments later Torious had pulled himself upwards and rolled onto the stony surface. Dariel swooped above him, glad to be in flight again. A bitter wind cut sharply into the priest as he...

    Thanks Ashy, I appreciate it. I'm getting hooked on your own story hour also... Well, I believe you've tumbled into a patch of lucky fungus. I'm jetting off on a much needed holiday on friday for a week and a bit (with a little access to internet here and there, so I'll reply as and when i...

    The Heroes of Icemist (SmallBeginnings 2)- Interlude update 2/21/2008!

    Thumbs up guys. Nice update. I figure that perhaps the ogre could teach/mentor/infuse Worm with a dash of fighting advice. Worm & Ogre sex is a terrible, terrible road to travel down my friends... only the blind or the quested walk that one. Spider.

    "Full. Locked. Departed" The reverberations of the voice echoed away. The companions stood frozen in their attack stances. Torious lowered Justicar slowly as the more-then-obvious danger failed to appear. Milo kicked the moss sulkily, his hero mode now in full flow. Thalin remained wary, his...

    A Chronicle of Ice, Luck and Honour Chapter 5: The Early Wyrm Catches The Birds "Must I die and die again..." The heroes were slumped in a broad corridor, almost twenty feet wide, but only six foot high. Every inch of wall, ceiling and floor bore a thick carpet of moss. Milo admired the...

    Hi HalfOrc HalfBiscuit, nice to have you on board. Yeah, Milo's ambitions were always pretty epic. In a lot of ways though, there's a hell of a competition for Milo's would-be post. Oh, and how much money? Doesn't even bear thinking about until Milo has paid off his rather illustrious debts...

    "Get that door open Milo! Now!" Milo reacted before Thalin and flipped backwards. In mid-air, Milo drew his crossbow and screamed for Torious to get up. The Aasimar lay sliced in a heap beneath the bulk of the spider. A mesh of blood and bones protruded from his chainmail. His face was blank...

    "Why is it closed now?" Milo lead the way through two or three more dusty rooms which were, Milo said, the quarters of the Dwarven miners. He assured his companions that they held absolutely nothing of interest. However, whilst searching through a crumbled corner of what seemed to be draws of...

    A Chronicle of Ice, Luck and Honour Chapter 4: The Eight Blades of Talagbar "Kill all three, retrieve the staff, then report back to me" With a careful step, Milo tiptoed into the first antechamber of the Dwarven mines. He could feel the shivering, scared form of Isplit curled up in his...

    Shadows of Greatness, a Forgotten Realms campaign UPDATED February 1, 2008

    Hello! Thought I'd drop in on this as it's nice to see another Forgotten Realms story hour knocking about. Well, I was damn pleased that I did. The lack of dialogue threw me a little at the start, but I soon got caught up in the swing of things. Looking forwards to next installment! Spider

    Well, thanks for the tip off el-remmen... there need to be more of this kind of thread. Hello everyone, my story hour is A Chronicle of Ice, Luck and Honour and it's an unashamedly high fantasy Forgotten Realms campaign that lies somewhere between The Princess Bride, George R R Martin and...

    A Chronicle of Ice, Luck and Honour - updated 19th December

    As the three adventurers vented their frustrations to each other about being hounded out of Darmshall, Milo remained level-headed and suggested returning to the Talagbar mines. He had recently 'visited' the mines, where he was sure there were more gems like the one he owned. Backing this claim...

    "What more do you want from us?" Torious used what power he had left to heal himself and Thalin. Milo guarded his weakened cohorts as Thalin informed the other two about the faded insignia worn by the man in black. Torious quickly identified it as a marking of the Blackrock family, although he...

    "Silver! Silver!" Dariel dropped from Thalin’s shoulder and swooped out of danger. Thalin could almost feel his veins bursting as he hauled himself to his feet. An agonised scream escaped his lips. His blood shuddered from burning forks to numbing daggers as a nimbus of frost crawled over the...

    FADED GLORY: The Black Eyes of the Demon Scorpion (FINISHED!)

    Hi there Henry, I'm really enjoying this as so far. First off, it's refreshing to read your writing style - the bared down actions (for example - the first combat was really well handled. The sense of pace made the characters a force to be reckoned with) are great. Oh, and I like your use of...
