Toynapper confronted Fourteenth Session (part 2) Brynn and Grimnyr freeze, eyes immediately focusing on the doorway, hands held ready over weapons. A moment passes, then another. The guard groans, but his outcry is cut short as Grimnyr jams his hand into the guard’s mouth, silencing him...

Culprit found Fourteenth Session (Dec 02) The Companions head across town, over to Tam’s encampment, where the gnome has set up for his stay in Merikest. Reaching the spot, they wait patiently until the last of the crowds clear, and then approach him with their idea. Brynn suggests that...

Aha! Another person foiled by my clever disguise! I am really a wolf in kitty clothing... my normal suit is at the cleaners. Meow, that's the ticket! Er *clears throat* I mean, Yeah, that's the ticket. Freudian slip. StevenAC, how's the compilation of 151 to current going? I need some...

*wanders into the thread, whistling.* Pause *Listens to the echoes reverberating in the less-than-crowded forum* While Sagiro is on his honeymoon, I'll just make myself cozy here. Wish there were a few more people here though, kinda seems empty. Chilly too. *looks around for some...

Tam the Tinkerer and the tumultuous toys Thirteen Session (Dec 02) The next morning is greeted by the shouts and laughter of children and above the noise, the clamor and clanging of pots and pans hung precariously off the sides of a wagon coming into town. Pulled by a little pony, and driven...

Lazy day in Merikest Twelfth Session (Dec 02) Eventually, the bronze shell is removed from the road, and the traces of the battle fade, even as the last of the Companions wounds are healed, leaving fresh skin behind, and the need to mend some gear. Curious about the shell, Brynn calls on...

The statue speaks Eleventh Session (Dec 02) Days pass, as they are inclined to do. The Companions seek activity to keep their minds off events just a few days old. It is too much like what occurred just a few weeks (subjective)/2 years past in their home villages. The sense of despair, and...

Drool. Thank you StevenAC! Now I can get all my Company goodness in one spot. If only there was a fanboy obsessed with Defenders ... (Goodness knows I've tried to be a good fanboy, but I'm just not that organized, and the years of post-age on ENWorld is too much for me to handle.) :o...

In counterpoint to my previous post, I've been toying with a magical elixer that is rather fun, for all it's randomness. I've called it Oil of Increase, a rare and valuable substance that is composed primarily of the Weave itself. When applied to an item of masterwork quality or better...

Politics. Politics. Politics. It's all about interaction between all the "players" in the game. Courtly intrigue. In-fighting (you remember how much Oberon's get fought each other, directly or indirectly!). Struggles for power, especially in the Shadow, to compile an army capable of...

I've been thinking lately about economics in the game. Specifically, what makes, or rather, keeps, something valuable? Intrinsic or otherwise? Why is gold valuable, if seemingly every treasure horde has hundreds if not thousands of the little round disks made of the metal? Just how many...

Tenth Episode (Nov 02), part two Skylar clears a path for Athena as the gnome strides purposely forward, eyes intent on her orc opponent. Like magic, two zombies crumple to the ground before her, as she almost absent-mindedly swings her mace to collapse a skeleton before her. Athena’s motions...

Tenth Session (Nov 02) Having cleared the woods of bandits, and run off bands of orcs, goblins, and other forest denizens, the journey back to Merikest is uneventful for the group of adventurers. By the next day, they reach the outskirts of town, and even the ranger Brynn is relieved to see...

Insert big D'OH! right here. I'm having issues with the text size, font, spacing. Seems to occur when I cut-n-paste from MS Word XP for some reason. Going to try to use Notepad to paste. Sorry for the eyestrain folks! And I found (some) of my notes. I should be posting again this...

Continuance of the story here will be delayed while I re-find my notes. Or, failing that, recreate the events of the gaming sessions picking up from the last session posted. :( I hope to have something within the next week posted here. Keep watching!

Ninth Session (Nov 2002) With this news, the party decides to press on, to take Brug by surprise, and take him to town for justice. With the aid of the reluctant informers, they continued up the riverbed, further into the forests surrounding Merikest. However, their plan to surprise Brug’s...

Eighth Session (Oct 02) Not ones to remain daunted, they heed not the voice, and rush after their captured kinfolk. Across the next chamber, over the water and on the far wall, they see a shimmering gateway, where the last of their fellow kinsmen are disappearing. Cursing whatever it is that...

Seventh Session (Sept 02) Chasing after the band of kobolds, the party finds themselves trapped behind a thick iron portcullis. The escaped leader of the kobolds seeks to incapacitate them within their prison, but ends up losing his familiar to them (a stirge, no less). Bands of kobolds harry...

Session six (Sept 02) The party is directed to follow the kobolds into the mines by a dwarf wall defender. “They got this far undetected. We can’t afford to have one horde at our front door while another guts us from behind!” They are given little time to get ready – the more they delay, the...

Fifth Session (Aug 02) A gnome servant, Jaroo, attends to the needs of the party while they wait. He is occasionally summoned into the chambers of the elders, and at times raised voices can be heard within. It is awhile before the elders are ready to talk to the party – other groups move...
