    Adventure: Three Queens in Allaria (DM: BenBrown, Judge: Covaithe)

    Pharodeys's quick examination reveals that the woman has come from up the road in the direction the caravan is travelling. She has not been moving steadily, but seems to have stopped every so often, for what reasons are not clear. From time to time she looks to have stumbled off into the...

    Adventure: Three Queens in Allaria (DM: BenBrown, Judge: Covaithe)

    The woman is dressed only in a homespun dress, belted at the waist with a rope. The fabric is frayed in places, and doesn't quite seem to fit, and it's possible that she picked it up second-hand. There are a few little spots where it looks like the fabric is burned away, but there are no...

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

    "I am no priest, only a singer of songs, but I will do what I can," says Hú Lí. "Yet many who sail upon the sea lie unburied, with the ocean as their only grave. The sea is great and wide Many a storm rages on it The ships that ply its waters Tossed about by the waves Let those who sail the...

    I always figured the vampire was unsupported because it was mostly thrown in as a sop to people who were saying "I wanna play a vampire" not because anybody at WotC had any real desire to have a vampire class. Mind you, this idea doesn't really hold up all that well when you consider the other...

    Adventure: Three Queens in Allaria (DM: BenBrown, Judge: Covaithe)

    Nothing seems obviously wrong with the woman except perhaps exahaustion, yet nothing seems to waken her. Sven manages to rig up a place on top of the middle cart to lay her down on. There are no signs of anybody coming through the woods, and it seems likely that wherever she came from, she...

    Adventure: Three Queens in Allaria (DM: BenBrown, Judge: Covaithe)

    The woman is alive, but unconscious. Her breathing is regular and in general she appears to have fallen into a deep sleep. Her clothing is of the sturdy peasant-made type, rather worn, but not ragged, and she is rather unkempt in general. Her age is perhaps in her mid-thirties, but it's hard...

    Adventure: Three Queens in Allaria (DM: BenBrown, Judge: Covaithe)

    Please keep thinking about positioning. Mostly I need to know who's in front of the carts and who's elsewhere. Since it doesn't have immediate bearing, let's move on. The first day's ride is through cultivated fields, with a few little villages dotting the landscape. By the end of the day...

    "I do not think we should go far today," Hú Lí says. "But soon, soon we should move on."--she taps her drum--"Move our camp."--another tap--"Captain Kovack and the woman Ieana are still around."--tap--"And they may hold the key to our leaving this place."--tap--"For while we have proved we can...

    Because it's a new adventure, you need to resbumit, but it's much easier now. Just add yourself to the approval requests page on the wiki.

    Adventure: Three Queens in Allaria (DM: BenBrown, Judge: Covaithe)

    The carts are effectively 20 feet long. 10 feet of cart, plus 10 feet of ox, with a 5 foot clearance between carts, going single file. Therefore from the front of the lead ox to the back of the trailing cart is about 70 feet, or 14 squares. You can easily see what's up in front from the tops...

    Spider greets the statue, and introduces her to the group as Pharodeys. After a short conversation, he invites her to travel with the group. The ship docked in the early part of the morning, and it is still an hour or two before noon when Sven announces that everything is ready to go. "The...

    "I thought I was ahead of you too," Kaeysari says, "But things were kind of confusing there for a while. I ran into the king, and had to move quietly so that I didn't wake him up." she looks around the tavern, looking for signs of the fight. "Phoenix doesn't seem to be here now, although with...

    Hú Lí smiles. "Noriaki is a fine musician," she says. "The noble houses of the Kingdom of Jade teach culture as well as warfare." She turns to Noriaki. "I will be glad to teach you many songs. When one listens, one can hear them everywhere. There are songs sung by women as they wash their...

    The shifter watches them leave. "Um, not those ones," she says. "One specific kobold. We were heading here from... well, that's not important. I lost track of him. His name's Papolstaanas. He was wearing armor last time I saw him, and big round shield. I hope he's okay. He's a nice kid...

    As Jaz & company leave the room, the front door opens, and a tall female in Imperial-style armor enters the room. A slighty feral look in her features marks her as a shifter. She strides in, with a glaive balanced over her shoulder, a canvas cover over the blade, but not over the ring of...

    Hú Lí is fascinated by the armor and the amulet. "Please excuse me," she says, and steps gingerly away into a nearby thicket. She emerges a minute later wearing the new armor under her outer robe. She smiles, dances rhythmically, tapping her drum, then as she pirouettes, the armor is gone...

    Adventure: Three Queens in Allaria (DM: BenBrown, Judge: Covaithe)

    The passenger quarters--such as they are--have a somewhat low ceiling, but are roomy enough otherwise although there's very little light and the place smells distinctly of fish. The crew is efficient, and as the tide turns, the ship moves away from the pier and out into the harbor. The voyage...
