The boards have been a little weird (I couldn't update some stories for hours... thought I'd lost them) but thanks for the support and keep reading. Chapter 5 is a little shorter than the previous chapters (I'm looking to shorten the chapter sizes somewhat - anyone finding there is too much to...

It's good to read an effective dragon attack, and the danger that the soldiers are undoubtedly in seems very real - nice, descriptive writing. Keep it going... And who built that brick wall? Where did they come from? Ack.... migraine.

- The coin throwing incident was superb, and it worked so well because the Doomguard were, at heart, just greedy cowards plated up in the best armour King Doom would buy for them (Milo's player had divine inspiration I'm sure). - Lyle is still one of my favourite villains (although the man in...

Although I introduced the race into the campaign before the movie came out, i imagine the language of the species to be something close to the Genosians (from the film... you know, the one with the hero called Jango) clicks, burrs and er... raspberries - although a lot more fluid. You are...

Ice, Luck and Honour Chapter 4: The Eight Blades of Talagbar Early to Middle Winter, Realms Date 1372 …Thalin twirls Shard into his familiar Ulutiun style before advancing towards the throng of goblins. Raising his arms to strike a poised goblin, a sudden searing pain strikes through his...

This next post is a little longer than the previous chapter, but a lot happens which all needed to be covered. Anyway... enjoy Chapter 4: The Eight Blades of Talagbar

Hmmm... still not one that shouts out at me yet, although the Vash, Qee and those pantheon.org names are definitely possible. I'm not writing up the story hour accounts where they start appearing yet, so we've got a little time to figure it out. But the idea of them being individually named...

You really should have seen the players faces when the minotaur snapped out of the shackles, their faces dropped all at the same time, as they realised what sort of thing their first/second level characters were facing. But they got through (and facing things a lot tougher than them became...

They're language is all bubbly and popping sounds (as expected) - quite impossible to understand unless you're a speaker of it. No written language (although runes are used in their society). Surface dwellers don't really have a name for them yet - most of the commoners just scream 'fish-men!'...

Hmmm... need to think about this one. Perhaps Qiss or Vashqiss as a race name then Vash'Mathilou as an individual name. I prefer the idea of a shorter race name but smooth, watery NPC names would be cool. Thanks for the ideas, any more are appreciated.

Hmmm... thats not bad at all. Perhaps it needs a shorter name after all. Quee maybe... what about Qiss? Or maybe Q(insert vowel here)ss... not sure. Thoughts? Quee or Qiss? Gurami or Gnuramil?

That doesn't sound bad, I was looking for something that sounds a little wavey, if you get what i mean. Gnuramil or something maybe... i need something that the players will remember almost straight away. Any others?

They've been introduced into my campaign already, but sort of as a mysterious element (just to keep PC's on their feet), so they haven't been given a name yet... But they need one soon. They're an aquatic race with semi-transparent skin (so you can see the ghosts of bones moving underneath)...

I think Plane Sailing is one of my favourites, just because i love the Elemental plane of Air (and can imagine huge ships rolling into infinity... <sigh>). Oh yeah, and Tyler Do'Urden. That made me laugh.

It's nothing to be ashamed of. A well organised Gibberling could, with the correct mental attitude, be a menace in anyones side.

Thanks everyone. I can now start pinning town names and battle grounds onto my old map with gusto! Cheers for the help.

I was born with a d20 in one hand, a plastic-wrapped 1e dungeons and dragons set (the pink box one) in the other, and a birth mark shaped like a thac0 chart on my chest. Needless to say, I was whisked away by the Government. But i didn't know what any of it meant until i was about 7. Someone...

Anyone live near Liverpool, in the UK? Looking for big time geeks to join in as D&D players, or DM's if you like. Currently 4 in our troupe, all of us are around 20 odd and bow to whims of a university life. No-one from Calday Grange Grammar school need apply (sorry, but Calday kills...

I love the Realms, but: Music of Faerun: Szass Tam remembers his good old days and invites us to share in his knowledge of all that is musical in the lands of Faerun. Including the best of Drow thrash-metal, why halflings are required by law to listen to country music, Dwarven beats and Drizzt...

Is anyone other than cthuluftaghn and Krellic reading this? By the way, I made some edits to the original three stories, smoothing out paragraphs and adding some breaks in (I see what you mean cthuluftaghn, about the text needing to be broken up a little)... do you guys think the format is...
