Excerpts from the journal of Giovanni Vito, aka 'Havok' 7th of Mirtul, 1373 …With the destruction of the Apostle of Kyuss, the panic in the crowd began to fade away. Slowly, inexorably, that panic transformed into elation. Before long the throngs that had borne witness to my comrades’ great...

ENDGAME It was the last night of the Champion’s Games and the coenoby was a tomb. Auric and Khellek had retreated to their quarters, offering no word of congratulations or good luck to the members of Impotent Rage. For their own part, the League had larger concerns. “We have to go back down...

ROUND THREE (OR HOW TO KILL A FROGHEMOTH IN THIRTY SECONDS OR LESS) ‘That must be it,’ Giovanni thought, for he could not speak aloud in the magically silenced room. ‘The Apostolic Scrolls.’ Carefully avoiding the writhing green beam, he walked around the back side of the altar, gazing at the...

EKAYM’S REQUEST As the thunder of the crowd died to a dull roar, Dwilt stepped into the center of arena. “My fellow Waterdhavians!” he cried, and the crowd answered with enthusiasm. “As team leader of Impotent Rage, I think I speak for all of us when we thank you for your respect and...

ROUND 2 Giovanni sat in silence, staring at his hands and contemplating all that he had just heard. He felt hollow inside. He had arrived in Waterdeep thinking that he was worldly, that he had seen fantastic things and places. Now he realized just how naïve he had been…and selfish. He had been...

Giovanni’s Journal Entry – Night 2 of the Champion’s Belt Games, Date Unknown This has to have been one of the strangest, however most eventful, days that I can recall. Our team’s victory on the sands of the arena was quite flawless. Prior to the combat, I was under the impression that my...

WHAT HAS GONE BEFORE…PART 2 Before the League had a chance to begin their investigation of Ironeater’s mine, a message was received by Gideon from none-other-than Balabar Smenk. The missive requested a meeting with the League, and implied subtle threats against both Valkus Dun, and Melinde, a...

WHAT HAS GONE BEFORE…PART ONE Grubber’s tale began several months before in Daggerford, a town along the banks of the river Delimibyr some 120 miles southeast of Waterdeep. Up until two years ago, Daggerford was ruled by a hereditary duke, Pwyll “Greatshout” Daggerford. The town was located...

ROUND ONE When the chime sounding the dawn hour rang, Giovanni and the rest of Impotent Rage emerged from their quarters to find that most of the gladiators were gathered near the meal tables. A parchment had been posted on the wall there announcing the first round match-ups. Dwilt’s team was...

LET THE GAMES BEGIN True to his word, Ekaym arrived the next evening, this time draped in a garish purple robe. A small coach waited outside the inn, and it carried the merchant and the warlock through Dock Ward, and past the Market in the City Ward. Throughout the ride, Ekaym chatted away...

Because you demanded it, loyal readers! Here begins the next chapter in our epic campaign! Join us once again, as we set off on the road to adventure with new friends, and perhaps some old faces! Settle back, relax, and prepare to enjoy the AGE OF WORMS!! PROLOGUE The trip to Waterdeep had...

Not even a database shutdown can take away the wormy goodness of JollyDoc's Story Hour!!! So here we go again, with reader comments sadly deleted :( Note: I saw that the old thread was further down the page, but I think I'll take this opportunity to streamline things. Note #2: I've got the...

I'm glad ENworld is back. I was starting to have withdrawl symptoms . . . <injects d20 goodness into veins> . . . AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH . . . Sweet, sweet, ENWorld, how I have missed ye . . . <passes out from euphoria>

Holocaust started playing as of yesterday. We found Ondabar but were not sure quite what to do with him when we did ;)

AC w/o magic and psionics, huh? Uh. . . . 10.

Ika, once the amoral Vladius is upholding the principles of weal with Drasek. Love it!! I hope "Pyro" will live on with "Holocaust!"

Please note that this character has yet to be approved by JD, so it is subject to change without notice. I toyed around with several builds including a druid, wizard, psychic warrior, barbarian/frenzied beserker, etc. but this was the only one I thought I would enjoy playing. Faust...

The highest I've ever gone is with my 20th level Sorcerer: 1. Shapechange to Pit Fiend for base AC of 40 2. +5 armor [artifact] 3. +5 natural armor [artifact] 4. +2 Dex [cat's grace] 5. +4 Shield [1st level spell] 6. +1 Haste [3rd level spell] Total AC = 40+5+5+2+4+1=57

Nice title JD, I like it! Dwilt rolled a very impressive 41 on his disarm check which the bloody Noble Salamander matched!! He won due to his greater Str though. So, here's the deal. I'm out of gaming for a week and was thinking about a new PC. I'm willing to take suggestions from readers...

Black Dragon = 2-3 rounds Abyssal Ghoul = 20+ rounds
