    The Misfits: Behind the DM screen...

    Hi Ashy, here are a few I've dug out of my old tattered papers on Ice, Luck and Honour, and then a few more I made up just now... Spirit's Whisper Large Shield +2 A large black and grey shield with a stretched ghost's face on the front side. The item is the vessel for an imprisoned ghost. When...

    Don't laugh..... it's here.

    Hey Hairy Minotuar - nice fight scene. Magma trolls were good blend, it's always so intriguing to throw something at the party which is reversed. I once made up a half-troll, quarter-yuan-ti, quarter destrachan. It was a bit messed up but nailed the characters left right and centre. Fire...

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

    "Kill the halfmen, burn the mageling and bring the head of the Tyr-son to me" Two days passed as the four travellers moved westwards. On the eve of the first day, a light snow began to fall. Only Thalin was pleased, as he was used to such weather. Despite the cold, the companions pushed onwards...

    As you wish [said the man in the black mask]. I'll dig out my pages of weirdo magic items that never quite made it into Ice, Luck and Honour - never got round to giving out The Ghostwise Gloves [gloves that have a dual spell of a few spectral hands with deflect arrows feat when activated - just...

    Thanks again for the support Ashy, you know I appreciate it. :) Okay, so here is a quick stopper before the next installment of A Chronicle of Ice, Luck and Honour. Below are the descriptions/powers of the magic items that Milo picked up in the warden's office. It was quite a haul. Milo...

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

    Well, these posts had already been written. But I do try to keep well ahead of what I'm posting. Rather than write up each chapter, I set aside a certain amount of time way ahead of the posting deadline and just keep writing. At the very least a week or two. It can be edited and chopped up...

    "Hold on. Milo’s disappeared." Thalin stared at where Milo had stood. “Hold on. Milo’s disappeared,” said Thalin with a hint of concern. After a few minutes of debating whether the halfling was invisible or had died (and a handful of other possibilities), Torious, Thalin and Mikka jumped back...

    Interlude Number Four: A Tale of Fortune The sound of angels singing was so sweet that Milo began to cry. Their voices echoed every emotion possible in the beat of a single word. As his eyes adjusted to the bright lights, he wiped away a tear and gazed around. His dirty boots stood on a perfect...

    Oh yes. The party were constantly arguing in a happy way (players all got on, but their characters rubbed each other the wrong way. Having a party consisting of a straight-laced mage, naive-but-valiant priest and a chaotic halfling was always going to make things interesting. And one of the...

    Ah, but you know I believe in magic items with that extra kick! And sure as dammnit Milo isn't on the Material Plane anymore... (interlude on the way to demonstrate just where Milo has got to now). Thanks again Ashy, though I was sad to realise no-one died in the last update (I'm losing my...

    "Sure you don’t want that sausage?” Two long hours passed before the three adventurers saw the outskirts of Darmshall before them. Fully dark now, Torious led the party with a blazing torch in one hand and Freedom’s Edge in the other. Thalin followed with Erifeci, and Milo tried to keep pace...

    Well, yeah, but I figure that you can never go wrong to have more (Lyle RIP, Robar & The Bear to name a few)... pop-up reoccuring badguys is one of the true joys of the DM. Just keep them alive!!!! Keep a child hostage if all else fails!!!!! Please do - I'll punch up a critique in your story...

    Hey spidertrag, nice to have you on board (spiders work better in groups, says I). Well, next update should be tomorrow. I don't want to flood my readers with posts because I know all to well how easy it is to lose grip of a story hour. Anyway, listen to me! Thanks for giving this SH a whirl, it...

    Swashbuckling in Freeport

    HEY! Bump. Where did your story hour get to? I was really getting into the swing of this... (Spider finds an able crew, a rickity boat and a rusted cutlass, then he commandeers a search party for Morrow)

    Beauty and the Beast: The adventures of Hulgor and Gwennid! Updated 7/11!

    Hi Munin, Your story hour has got a nice feel to it already. The beauty and the beast take on things got me interested. Hmmm... the bumbling bad guys is also a nice touch. Not enough of those type about. Keep it coming. Spider J

    The Waterdeep Adventures or Kobold Soup is good eatin!

    hey hey spacehulkster. Nice story hour so far. You got yourself a new reader. So how's the DM holding up with such a big party and two 12 year olds? The mix up of ages really shows in the write up (in a good way - I think party banter is one of the keys to a good story hour). Spider J p.s...

    A Chronicle of Ice, Luck and Honour Chapter 7: Trailblazing "Milo! Torious! Darmshall is burning!" A laconic rising wind helped Dariel glide upwards, wings scything through the air with grace. His eyes focused across the vast area he now surveyed; the route back towards Darmshall. Thalin had...

    Hey DM-Rocco, I remember reading your Lizard Bait SH (you mentioned that coming back - when you planning for? You already got me as a reader), so gave this one a whirl. I haven't finished reading through yet. About half way. A succubus just got beheaded. Anyway, good stuff so far - liking the...

    Amber Company: Have You Heard of Us? (updated 06/18)

    Hello there Crothian, You've got me involved in another story hour! Great descriptions and the player perspective is an ever-engaging one. The disparaged/nihilistic voice is funny - spears in backs, left fighting zombies&dragons etc. Keep it up. Spider J
