    [Adventure] Serpent's Skull: Souls for Smuggler's Shiv (DM: Mewness; Judge: THB)

    "I will stay here," Hú Lí says. "I am no great climber, and will leave this to those who are stronger." She taps gently on her drum. "I will keep watch here, and guard those wounded as best I can." She shifts her robe so that her sword is visible, and takes up a post looking towards the...

    have you ever played without maps?

    I'd guess he doesn't have any amongst his regular players.

    [Adventure] Serpent's Skull: Souls for Smuggler's Shiv (DM: Mewness; Judge: THB)

    Hú Lí begins playing her flute softly. The melody is slow and melancholy, but the effect is soothing. Song of Rest: at the end of a short rest, each ally may spend a healing surge and regain 4 extra hit points. This includes NPCs, if they're built with healing surges.

    Adventure: Get Me to the Church on Time (DM: BenBrown, Judge: Renau1g)

    Tyris fails to become hidden, which in the event is probably a good thing, as Eraden can see him. Eraden may not know this newcomer but he recognizes a soul in trouble. He approaches Tyris, and divine power emanates from his hands. He then tries to help Tyris fight the poison, but this does...

    [Adventure] Serpent's Skull: Souls for Smuggler's Shiv (DM: Mewness; Judge: THB)

    "Do we split into groups to search?" Hú Lí asks. "Or should we stick together?" She gathers up the rest of her equipment, looking curiously at where it lay. She removes a small sword from the pile and buckles it under her outer robe, then straps her drum under her arm again and gives it a few...

    Does hack-n-slashing desensitize us to violence?

    The thing about this is: if you're role-playing negotiation, while the person you're negotiating with might be a fictional construct and the things you're negotiating about don't actually exist, you're still more-or-less negotiating and the actions you take are very similar to actual...

    A Night at the Four Seasons (DM: renau1g, Judge:Ozymandias79)

    "Aha," Kaeysari says, blinking slightly as her eyes adjust to the light. "Much better." She turns to Kauldron. "I'll take the ones on the left," she says. With that she steps forward and strikes out at one of the revolting zombies. Move: to K8 Standard: Footwork Lure vs. Bloodhulk 3...

    [Adventure] Serpent's Skull: Souls for Smuggler's Shiv (DM: Mewness; Judge: THB)

    "Everyone get up," Hú Lí shouts, "They're getting closer." She bustles over next to where Captain Dartmoor lies insensate on the ground, leans down and blows an shrill note on her flute directly in his ear. "Get up! Get up!" She notices Alkas standing weaponless menaced by four of the...

    Yes, I'm afraid that's so. I'll correct my post.

    [Adventure] Serpent's Skull: Souls for Smuggler's Shiv (DM: Mewness; Judge: THB)

    Hú Lí gets to her feet and looks around somewhat bewildered at her surroundings. "Where are we?" she asks, "What happened to us? Why are we being attacked?" She reaches down and instead of arming herself picks up her flute and begins playing. There is a strange quality to the music, weird...

    Waiting on Tenchuu and Eternal54. I was hoping to get a 48 hour turnaround, but I think I'll wait until I get home tomorrow to post.

    [Adventure] Serpent's Skull: Souls for Smuggler's Shiv (DM: Mewness; Judge: THB)

    As the ship casts off, Hú Lí bustles excitedly about the deck, trying to see everything happening at once. Hú Lí takes out her flute and plays a few bars of the tune. Her playing has a strange quality to it, as though her flute is tuned unusually, but the sound is clear and the tune is well...

    [Adventure]: Land Ho! FWBTHW (DM:H.M.Gimlord,Judge:Ozymandias79)

    Fenwick leaves behind the dragon statue and starts searching around the large statues on the floor, shoving them, lifting them, and so forth. For the life of me, I can't think of any even remote excuse to use Diplomacy or Intimidate here. Since even with the -2 penalty, Athletics is still...

    "You have made this voyage before," Hú Lí says to Aerys. "Are we going to depart soon? It is always exciting setting off." She excitedly looks over the prow towards the open ocean. "The sea is wide," she begins singing in a high tone, tapping her drum sharply after each phrase. "The sails...

    Adventure: Get Me to the Church on Time (DM: BenBrown, Judge: Renau1g)

    The elk stumbles and collapses. As it tries to right itself its antlers become stuck in the pile of debris it landed in. Trap (Reflex) vs. Elk (1d20+4=11) Since the elk is prone, it's stuck. Should have posted this as part of my reaction to mewness's post, but I just noticed it now.

    The bees don't get an OA. If they did, you'd go ahead and roll it, which is why I put the MBA stats for all the critters in my posts. However, since you're hidden, it looks like you can get out of there safely. Now, it's not entirely clear from this whether you can move past a whole bunch of...
