    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour (Updated 29 Jan 2014)

    So what exactly did Florian do to make Toras badass enough to kill a molydeus in a couple hits? Still can't believe that they let it out... Nice update. I like the suspense-building with the Jester.

    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour (Updated 29 Jan 2014)

    Hmm. It's mentioned in the descriptions of Thoth's Realm in both the Player's Guide to the Outlands and the "Sigil & the Outlands" section of the boxed set, but just as a river that runs along the 7th ring from Torch to Excelsior, with no reference to special qualities or pathways or anything...

    Man. Talk about not coddling your players! Where's the source in the PS material for the River Ma'at? Don't remember that one. Been a while since I read the originals, though.

    Alea Iacta Story Hour: A Mythic Rome Campaign (Baby Announcement: 8/17)

    Well, the first thing that springs to mind is Eliot: Between the idea And the reality Between the motion And the act Falls the Shadow (For thine is the Kingdom) Between the conception And the creation Between the emotion And the response Falls the Shadow (Life is very long) Between the...

    Alea Iacta Story Hour: A Mythic Rome Campaign (Baby Announcement: 8/17)

    Yay! A fresh supply of my drug of choice. :D How did you handle the mechanics of this ideal world? Did everyone get to choose their own ideal forms, or did you assign some of them? And damn, Lucretius... what a lousy way to be outed!

    carpedavid's Land of the Crane (Updated 11 May, 2006)

    What you really mean to say: "As long as you close your eyes and hold your nose, it's not too bad! Back before refrigerators were invented, people had to eat this foul stuff every freakin' day." :D

    carpedavid's Land of the Crane (Updated 11 May, 2006)

    I think you've been doing fine on that score so far, actually. Feel free to drag the combat stuff out for really important fights, but for "ambush by gang of random ninjas", that's fine. My only real criticism would be that there's not a lot of inter-character banter. But remember, you can't...

    Alea Iacta Story Hour: A Mythic Rome Campaign (Baby Announcement: 8/17)

    A new update... excellent! The day after I finished my last Classical Studies exam for the term, too. How fortuitous. Good luck with the job hunting, Orichalcum!

    Astutely put! Not such a crazy fool after all, are you?

    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour (Updated 29 Jan 2014)

    Somehow they're a little less creepy when someone's playing the "Stop hitting yourself!" game with them, though. :D I like the idea of disposing of unruly patrons through a portal to elemental Fire, too. Brutal but effective...

    Alea Iacta Story Hour: A Mythic Rome Campaign (Baby Announcement: 8/17)

    Yay! Two updates at once! The campaign-specific flavour to the magical items is a lovely touch, although it's kind of frightening to imagine what they'll do with those pipes once back in Rome...

    Alea Iacta Story Hour: A Mythic Rome Campaign (Baby Announcement: 8/17)

    "Thanks for all your help, Domina! Here's a lovely necklace we looted from a desiccated corpse!" More, please! Things should get awfully interesting in a hurry now that they know who the Philosopher is...

    Piratecat's Updated Story Hour! (update 4/03 and 4/06)

    Yeah, but where would they find the requisite dozens of players?

    Piratecat's Updated Story Hour! (update 4/03 and 4/06)

    Pity the Defenders' stay in Nacreous had to be so Brie-f. Aside from the freaky artwork (which they were understandably not too fond(ue) of), I imagine there was quite a lot of loot left behind. So paneer, and yet so far... And it's hardly surprising to be finding magic cheeses down there...

    Ooooh. Someone's just made a big, big mistake. Especially since someone will probably have Zadara resurrected in under a day...

    And speaking of leftover plot threads... whatever did happen to Aren's soul after she got herself all corspified in the Incantifiers' Maze?

    Sagiro's Story Hour Returns (new thread started on 5/18/08)

    Perhaps a better analogy might be to a celestial garbage-collection thread. :D

    The use of the Calm Emotions spell as a tranquilizer for household use is great. I'll have to find a way to nick that.
