A New Day The world around seemed so much different now, everything more dangerous and threatening. Memories of his past life remained, fragments and images of another time. Somewhere were the ones he had called mother and father, and maybe brothers and sisters too. They would not recognise him...

Bitter Failure Temaka sat alone in the dark of the cave, a cold wind whistling past his cross-legged form. The taste of bitter failure was a thing rarely known to Temaka, used to quick victories and easy glory. At the price of one execution, he had lost his undead minions, his gnome aide, his...

Ha! what sort of person needs Intelligence anyway :p

Druid on animal companion with Mounted Combat feats. Can buff themself up and their animal at the same time. Plus they can reduce it to fit in dungeons with spells. Had a druid on a bison and dire boar who did this for the whole campaign. :)

Warden's Judgement So much was lost to him, and there was little he knew for sure of his past. His companions named him Derris, of the De Marko family in Biavor. Yet since pixies had stolen his memories, he could not picture his mother or father, and knew not even his brothers and sisters, or...

YOUR tactics have gone horribly wrong? Every time I transfer in a new player, they either get injured or stop playing in the first team :(

Warden's Pursuit Temaka loathed the cities of the lesser ones. The squalid habitations of humans, halflings, halforcs and gnomes were a painful reminder of past failures to one such as him. One day these mortal creatures would kneel to his kind, joining the unliving within a mighty realm ruled...

Banba's Betrayal The enchantress sighed, glad that it was over. The balance had been restored to the area, although the morning’s battle had been a close thing. It would be good to see the last of the forest, where one companion had lost his lift and two had lost their memories, no longer sure...

Midnight Battle Burc watched in horror as his companion sank to the ground, slain by a mere touch from his halfling foe. Using defensive manoeuvres to keep the halfling always at a distance, he looked around for aid but found none forthcoming. Derris and Snarf fought off hobgoblin rider and...

Night Attack The malaise which had troubled Xarban in the forest had lifted, leaving him well and alive, ready to take up his adventuring career in earnest. His companions had taken part in a tough skirmish earlier in the day, almost losing Derris and Sam to giant toads. They had made the...

As CRGreathouse mentioned above, Item Creation is the most reliable way for a PC wizard to make money. Offer a discount to the other players and they have no real reason to go elsewhre for items you can manage. Then all you need is the time to make the items and the spare XP. And the DM is...

Gigantic Toads At times Sam missed the desert sands which he had called home for most of his years. There was a stark beauty to them, the promise of heat, thirst and starvation staved off by the occasional oasis or pocket of civilisation. But here he was in unfamiliar territory. The oppressive...

Have a guild / ally / friendly temple reincarnate them all :). PCs alive but in debt to another.

Stolen Memories He awoke very wet, sat in a shallow pond, hands and legs abound by thick hemp rope. He felt a wound further down his chest, caused by some sort of puncturing weapon. Those around him were unfamiliar, mostly humans, with a dwarf and a creature with tiger-like features among them...

No idea :). It's just the one I picked up when in need of a book in a hurry.

Fey Troubles The gloom of the forest had not changed. Coloured lights, unearthly music and bouts of distant laughter told Layla that the fey were still out among the trees. The mayor had looked more desperate than before, telling them another merchant had cancelled his contract with Turvin, and...

The silence after the dragon’s defeat lingered for several moments, before several voices broke it at once “We survived a dragon attack” “That thing must have a mound of treasure, everyone knows they do” “It was green, did you see that, a green dragon!” As his pack-mates clustered around the Sun...

Dragon of the Forest He was glad to be far away from the many-eyed masters, among woodland glades and farmland so different from his blasted homeland, seared by years under the yoke of destructive gazes. Although the strange lights and noises of this woodland were different, Snarf would rather...

Krunk Departs This hunt had cost the Company of Rifter dearly. The journey back from the fight with the bear had been a quiet affair, saddened by the loss of two staunch allies. Derris had survived again, only stunned by his fall, but the wounds of Krunk and Zorbaka would not heal. The halforc...

To be honest, at the size of party you are, the mix has very little to do with how many deaths you get. Two deaths have resulted from criticals, two from party members being out on their own and one from a failed save (heat metal). It's been dangerous :), but thats the way my players seem to...
