I hate to admit it, but that Pearl of Power is designed to work for people who prepare spells. Clerics, wizards, paladins, rangers... More or less anything except bards (and sorcerors). Can we overlook that trifling issue, and have it give me still more ULTIMATE BARDIC POWER (in the form of a...

He's mentally incapable, but made his own samurai sword?????

Correct me if I'm wrong, but that's 34 character levels?

That fight was pretty much entirely from notes - I get to sit there for 4/5 of a fight, so note taking is easy. I have to fudge conversations, as I can be involved in them, and therefore have to try to guess what I might have said...

I grasped the winch, the others ringing around me. As we descended carefully, Morgan began to use his own spells. Once again, the spectral figure wrapped its arms and robe around the mage, even as he summoned more ghostly energies and breathed them into his lungs, colouring his flesh and...

Firing over my shoulder as I backed up, Flynn managed to land an arrow into the beast’s spine. It roared in pain and anger, but kept on moving up to close with Torvig. In response, Torvig pulled out his Morningstar and managed to break off one of the tusks as we continued to shoot at the beast...

Gripping his bastard sword in one hand and his shield in the other, Niccoli ran towards the boar, but it reacted to him by bringing his head around to face him and slashing him across the face and neck with the huge iron tusks. Suddenly nearly at the point of death, my friend held his course...

Almost at the instant that we entered the room which had recently held 8 skeletons, a door on the left wall swung open. In the doorway stood a black-robed man stood framed in a light from the room behind him. His heavily scarred face was transfixed in a snarl as he clutched a wickedly bladed...

A few minutes later, Flynn and I dimly heard the sound of a skirmish from below. Banging on doors, the clang of weapons on armour, and then screaming. You can imagine our relief some two minutes later when Torvig laboriously winched the platform back up the chain to collect Flynn and I, and the...

Flynn and I set to work immediately; he backed into the shadows to take a look at the mysterious ‘boarded off passage’, whilst I started carrying sacks of rubble out of the mine and returning with small amounts of our equipment. On my third trip, I heard Morgan explaining patiently to the...

The next morning, we trudged through the mud up the hill into the stockaded mine. The area around the mouth of the mine was ringed with a picket fence, patrolled by men and dwarves to ensure that the mine workers couldn’t leave their ‘employment’. Within the stockade, there were remarkably few...

Chatting about whether we’d ever be able to rely on Smenk to pay up, we headed to the bar, where we saw a familiar sight – the three adventurers were celebrating once again. Biting our lips, we headed across to speak to them, and learned that they had had another adventure, going to the south to...

As I recall, when I played in this scenario the entire party spider climbed or flew up the outside of the lighthouse. The DM was a bit miffed, so moved every single 'named' NPC into the top room. Talk about a challenging fight!

When Morgan returned, unable to clean the last of some blood-red ink from the sleeve of his tattered clothes, we headed to Smenk’s palatial mansion house. The doors, as ever, stood wide open to allow any miners to speak to their employer. The fact that the doors were guarded by a pair of massive...

Intrigued by this letter, we finished our drinks, and went to the home of the most powerful mage in the town. After knocking at the door, an elderly man answered and (after examining the letter carefully), led us into a fine old drawing room, lined with expensive-looking paintings. After...

We didn’t see Morgan for about a day after that. He turned up in the Feral Dog the following evening; ink smudges on his cheek and a satisfied smile on his face. He also had a letter clutched in one hand, which he flattened on the beer-soaked table and read out to us. “Dear Morgan, You don’t...

OK... I'll dig out what I've done so far and get it posted... Bear with me!

On the topic of magic item making - xp costs. There may come a time when Al takes Craft Magical Arms & Armour, and Steve already has Craft Wondrous Item. When we get to the stage of wanting to make stupidly powerful magical items, the rulebook says that xp is paid by the person making the...

I'd argue with giving them evasion at about 8th or 10th level. Just as a reward for surviving that long!

Had 16 HP or something. 30 foot fatal damage left it with 2HP, but the bashing damage from the last 10ft knocked it out. Morgan fished it back out with a mage hand spell on his way out.
