UPDATE: After some deliberation I settled on a scourge with the Lifedrinker enchantment! Thanks to everyone for their suggestions. My halfling debuted (more or less) in the final session of KotS, and struck the killing blow to the BBEG with his new scourge! Woohoo! His magical battle standard...

Thank you both, I'm considering all the suggestions so far. It's interesting that a whip has been a consideration since the character's initial conception (hmmmm, not convinced that's the right word, but you know what I mean), as a means of dispensing discipline. Perhaps the character can...

Hello, not sure if this is exactly the right spot for this thread, so sorry if that's the case. I'm about to start playing a halfling warlord in a friend's campaign, and until recently I was set on him using a broadsword two-handed as his primary weapon. I only recently saw the battle...

I'm interested in running or (preferably) playing in a D&D 4th edition game by email with one or more other people. I'll consider any mix of rules/homebrew/setting, so if anyone's interested, email me at jwpaterson (at) hotmail.com Depending on the response, I might offer to DM a game which...

A mystery in the mountain Aengus, the eladrin spell-slinger, whirled about at the massive crash and gasped at the sight of horrid beast that now presented itself, roaring strange words in a harsh alien dialect. Aengus had scant seconds to assess the situation: Iben and Sigurd were trying to...

Shadow over Kindraed The party sailed through the night toward the fishing village of Kindraed, though it quickly became apparent that the damage done to the main sail by Aengus's errant magic was severe indeed. They came to a decision to set ashore earlier than intended and travel overland to...

"Corrin, my proud crusader... you are good to look out for me so. I share your concerns about Correus' judgement at times, and I feel terrible for having endangered you. I do trust Sul-Mahat, the kobold, however. He possesses great strength of character, and more shrewdness and cunning than you...

First magic item of the campaign, woo! So far, it's crit-power hasn't gone off, but I've used it's daily thunder power a few times. Most satisfying!

Several miles away, in a dark basement mouldy with rising damp, the beautiful Lady Pandran lies motionless atop a straw-stuffed pallet. Her servant, the brave Correus, kneels beside her, wiping the cold sweat from her brow. Suddenly, Pandran feels her consciousness drawn to another place, a...

It's great being able to relive our party's first adventure together this way! I can't wait to see the next installment, Tallarn! BTW, for those interested, I'm playing Rangrim the dwarfish paladin of Moradin in this campaign.

"My brother concentrates on his mission, I simply make it so he suffers no unnecessary setbacks... like interfering halflings. I'm starting to think I might've been hasty in my judgement of you ...Corrin. You've certainly proved yourself to be resourceful and quick-witted. Now it's me who has to...

Hurrah! Very enjoyable so far, Tallarn! The combat scene lived up to my expectations, as did the description of Promise's awakening. Very cinematic! You and crater should both be proud of a unique moment in roleplaying history, or at least the in the minds and memories of those present. For...

OOC: I was referring to Corrin calling himself Anteo ;] Dashiel does as Corrin asks and is soon at the top of the cliff. He unsheathes his sword and throws it on the ground beside Corrin and does the same with his bow, arrows, belt dagger, boot knife and backpack. He then holds his hands out...

OOC: Does Corrin have multiple personality disorder all of a sudden? ;] Dashiel scowls at Corrin's question, but answers readily enough. "My brother's the one in charge of the operation, and I'm his second. He was called directly by the fey ones to walk the path of prophecy. Why he thinks we...

Through gritted teeth, Dashielf snarls "We didn't need you in the first place! Correus thought I couldn't do this alone and he was going to send Sul to help me! Imagine, me needing the help of that filthy dog lizard! But then when you showed up, Correus teamed me up with you! I thought I could...

OOC: Insight check 16 (Success!) Corrin's insight tells him that Dashiel is probably being utterly genuine, having exhausted his limited creative faculties in plotting and executing his earlier trap. The wild look of terror on his face suggests that he is just now realising that he is...

As expected, clinging to the cliff-face just a few metres below the edge is the traitor, Dashiel. A look of terror mixed with anger burns on his face as he recognises Corrin. "Filthy half-thing! This is all your fault! If you hadn't rescued Sul, our less-than-worthless dogsbody from the...

The path gets steeper the higher you climb, but gradually the scrabbling sounds become louder, and are interspersed with very human-like grunts of effort. The path Corrin follows switches back as it climbs, and then rounds a corner, and Corrin finds himself looking over a cliff. At the bottom a...

From above, you hear scrabbling sounds, as though someone were trying to climb the steep incline. You notice a few good handholds that might make pursuit possible. You also see a slightly inclined path meandering along beside the near-cliffside. You surmise that the path might take longer to get...

Corrin makes his way back down the forest trail, risking a quick glance back towards the fight at the waterfall. The sounds of battle reaches his ears - magical explosions and wild cackling laughter mixed with chitinous cracking and tearing - leaving him with no clear idea of who held the upper...
