Sevarr listens to both Antor and Duncan. "Ah, you'd hear what's happening in the Sheer from nearly anyone else in town. Abhuman bands, even broken hounds. There's a place in there that's warm, summer warm, and it's drawing them in and making it a tough slog. But with you three... I don't...

There is an adventure for Arcana Evolved called The Depths of Hunger - http://rpggeek.com/rpgitem/59006/the-depths-of-hunger Though it may not be your system, it is very similar to 3.0 D&D, so some of the monsters could be used (or substituted), and the plot is a nice steal. There's a whole...

"I'm heading to Urzat Zaretri, ultimately. Very fond of banners and flags there, they are. Now!" Sevarr clasps his hands together as Duncan puts forth counter-terms, losing his awe to the prospect of a lively haggling session. "Room on the wagons is certainly possible, but times are hard...

Shadowsmith, Wisco is in, I have him introduced in the most recent post. Also, when you get a chance, toss up a character background for Wisco - how he got so tough and why he likes to run around in the wilds of the Beyond, etc. :) If you want to have a connection to one of the party, or...

"Oh. My. Word," the man says, his pale eyes going very round. "I thought you were dead!" He makes an abortive gesture, as if he were about to try to clasp you hands, then thinks better of it. "Sorry, rather. I saw you fight a few years ago - amazing! And-." He stops himself as one of his...

Cypers for Wisco - Adhesion clamps (lvl 6) - gloves covered with tiny hexagons Detonation (flash) (lvl 6) - A circle of synth that goes around the wrist and launches a bead of light. (long range) Flame retardant wall (lvl 6) - A ring marked with fine filigree and tiny, glittery nodes Oddity...

The one thing that ever really stopped me from doing a full-on planar campaign was the one thing that makes plane-hopping so fun - i.e. the traits of the planes. There are several planes where you are taking plenty of penalties if you're not the correct alignment, and several planes where...

As much as I like the Redwall series... I'm going to have to say no to Deerbrook. So go ahead and stat out Wisco. :)

I backed both the Numenera core book as well as the Numenera Maps Kickstarters, and I think both will be useful. I picked not just the world map, but also the map of Qi, and the flip sides show technological complexes that could be good for any exploration that your character will do. The...

Shadowsmith - We could probably use another nano in the party, but truly any of them would be a good choice (and I do mean that, pick the one that excites you the most, all have good points). Anyone you choose, go ahead and knock together a character sheet and put it in the Rogue's Gallery...

Antor, you and Duncan look about the Hex Market carefully. Antor, your experience lets you weed out those who look less stable and less honest, the type who would likely try to get their money's worth in ways that could be quite unpleasant. Three hundred and forty miles under the command of...

Deerbrook would probably get along with Duncan, though more in the opposites category, or I could see him being friends with Seregal. Wisco would be extremely useful in any number of upcoming situations, and could be a friend to Echo. ;) I could see Finnian and Duncan probably getting into an...

There are also some similarities with the 4e second wind in terms of recovery. Other than in very specific instances (a couple of the Foci, and a few of the cyphers) there isn't really any other way of healing yourself in Numenera other than time (and someone skilled in healing). You can make...

Depending on how fast they get back to me, we might not have to. Let us proceed for the moment, and if it becomes evident they'll need a few days, I'll let everyone know.

Well, it seems Cerulean Lion hadn't posted in this thread for nearly two weeks, and in the IC thread, never, so I'm going to ask a couple of alternates from RPOL if they'd like to play.

Echo, you examine the map carefully, bending the paper, tracing the marks that indicate cities and land features, occasionally trying slightly odder things like holding it over a candle, taking it briefly out in the snow, breathing upon it, even putting water on it. After a bit of...

*Sigh* It wasn't so much that everything about 4e was bad, it was that the way everything was put together made me want to punch a dryad in 4e. In particular, the heavy reliance of miniatures and movement on the grid made for extremely plodding combat. You could have everything planned out to...

The woman looks a little confused for a bit. "It's what I do. I mean, what do I do, if I don't do that? Just wander around? Everyone has to be doing something. Otherwise why are you around at all?"

Tashtego, it was a most excellent story! Lemme tell you something about my gaming group from a few years ago. This is my fact-to-face group, I was DMing, and we were playing 3.5 D&D in Eberron. There's an area called the Mournland in Eberron, which had some magical disaster occur during the...

A few tables away, a very tall muscular man is sitting in the company of several other mercenaries. Despite the cold he's dressed lightly, and you can see disks of glowing material set into his chest and spine. He doesn't speak very much, despite the chattering warriors sitting near him, and...
