    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour - (Updated 27July2025)

    “FIGHT ME PITIFUL CLERIC OF A PITIFUL GOD!” Garzuvek bellowed as he charged, blood bubbling up from his hands with a crackle of negative energy channeled from his unholy patron’s fury. “Really? Seriously?” Florian frowned and looked past the deranged priest. “Did this *sshat actually set up a...

    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour - (Updated 27July2025)

    **** “You’ve been what?!” Florian shot a cock-eyed look of worried concern at Tristol before she pivoted and repeated the same to Fyrehowl, complete with the exact same tone, expression, and inflection. “Maybe I completely misheard the completely stupid and dangerous thing that you just told...

    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour - (Updated 27July2025)

    You have no idea how happy it makes me that folks still want to see how this storyhour unfolds (despite my several year lull in the middle). I've got substantial portions of later events already written, and a good chunk of the next planned update as well. I hope you like it when it drops. :)

    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour - (Updated 27July2025)

    Had a surprise freelancing project on a short timetable, plus another that I'll be finishing up this week. Plus I just started a new job and it's eating me alive, but is a good thing in the long run. There's more here on the way, just as soon as I have other obligations finished which get...

    It appeared in Dragon magazine #300 for the planar dragon article therein. A version also appears in the 3.5 Draconomicon.

    D&D 5E (2014) Monsters in Pandemonium

    I'm here and you didn't even need to sacrifice anything or pen a binding circle in blood or salt. :D In one of my long-term campaigns I ran the PCs through a plot arc in the depths of Pandemonium, specifically the location known as Howler's Crag in the plane's second layer Cocytus. Heavy...

    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour - (Updated 27July2025)

    I can only hope to keep the surprises and twists coming for my Storyhour readers as I did for my players in the original campaign. There are a number of major twists still to come, and a lot of lingering questions for certain. Everything does get foreshadowed though. :)

    D&D 5E (2014) Planar Travel [Demons/Devils] Advice Requested

    2e: 'In the Cage: A Guide to Sigil', 'Uncaged: Faces of Sigil'. Uncaged is one of the best NPC books ever for D&D IMO, with each entry dripping plot and adventure hooks. 3e: 'Manual of the Planes', 'Planar Handbook' Various 2e adventures in Sigil (fully or partly): 2601 The Eternal...

    The Day Has Come! It's An OGL! And A Store To Buy & Sell D&D 5E Products!

    I've managed to dip my toes into the setting in each of the last two editions, and I'd love to do something for 5e as well. I'd also be more than happy collaborating with either you and/or Quickleaf, and a number of others as well that I've collaborated with before, or just had drinks with at...

    The Day Has Come! It's An OGL! And A Store To Buy & Sell D&D 5E Products!

    Come on WotC. Let me play in Sigil. Let me run wild with the 'loths.

    The Day Has Come! It's An OGL! And A Store To Buy & Sell D&D 5E Products!

    So how strictly are they defining FR as a setting? Everywhere on Toril or just Faerun? Does that include the cosmology and elements that have been mentioned therein? So long as you set it on Toril?

    Bumping this because the update in the prior post didn't register as a new post to the thread. Enjoy. :)

    Storyhour update not showing up in the thread last post field

    So I updated my storyhour thread several seconds prior to the site giving me a database error. The post shows for me, but when I'm in the storyhour forum itself, the thread doesn't show that there was a recent update. So my question is, does that recent post actually show up for anyone other...

    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour - (Updated 27July2025)

    **** “YEEEeeeaaaaarrrggghhh!” Clueless screamed as the fiend lifted him into the air with one hand clamped over his head. His feet dangled and wings beat at the air in vain as the Chronicler leaned in with a look of calm fascination playing over its sickly, diseased lips. “What the hell!?”...

    D&D 5E (2014) Accessing Divine Magic on non-native Material Planes

    I suppose it depends on how you define the multiverse and different settings within in. Classically they're not different Prime Material Planes - there's only one, and the various settings are just different planets within it. Mystara from (non A)D&D wasn't originally part of the Great Wheel...

    He would have brought Alex back, but very likely the baern would have retained a measure of control over him in the future. Alex would also have been given some memories of what he saw when he was killed, and the thing on the other side (Leobtav's god the so-called Ashsinger, etc). We're not...

    Bringing the New Year in with a short update and a face we haven't seen in some time now **** As the rattling, agonized wail cut the air like an obsidian blade through the yearning heart of a nycaloth on the slopes of Krangath, Helekanalaith closed his eyes and smiled. The Keeper’s ears...

    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour - (Updated 27July2025)

    It's one of the last things that received a full and complete answer in the original campaign. That being said, I will also note that all of the assorted stories of the Baernaloth cycle that I've written over the years are all set within the same continuity. The Blind Clockmaker story covers...
