Hmm. Well, I'm all in favour of good stories coming to an end eventually, but a little resolution would be nice. Sort of unsatisfying this way.

The campaign began after 3.0 came out, but before the Fiend Folio came out. (Also note that the Slasrath is an old Planescape monster from 2E.)

http://www.funkplanet.com/misc/PC.html It's a bad automatic HTML translation of the original RTF document, but still more or less readable.

Actually, that's all canon. Most of the Altraloths are named after various diseases: Bubonix, Cholerix, Anthraxus, Typhus, etc.

Human, psion (telepath), male. And while we're on the subject... Is it just me, or is Agar not quite the diviner he was cracked up to be?

Keep it up! I've been enjoying this since you started. So are the three people who are going off to escort the merchant the three people that Destan had to remove from the game? Handy way to do it, I suppose...

And what about Florian? :D

Indeed. Tristes sumus.

O ye of little faith. ;) That's a bad automatic HTML conversion of the original RTF document, but it's enough to be readable. Best I can do, in the absence of the piratecat.info site. However, you can get the original not-quite-as-ugly document right here if you prefer.

So we're basically talking about Archon on a real board? Sweet. I might have to steal that idea for a future game... the "game within a game" aspect might hook a couple of my players.

Classy. Real classy. I get pretty nervous around people who can do those kind of things without batting an eye. I've always been of the opinion that your habitual behaviour in roleplaying games or computer games says a lot about you as a person. This sort of overtly bloodthirsty banditry would...

Wow. That update is way, way better if you read it while listening to the song. No wonder the resolution of this battle was so long in coming. It's stories like this that keep me playing D&D. Thanks for spending the effort to record it all for us! It doesn't go unappreciated.

Excellent way to render Rule-Of-Three's convoluted speaking style. I'll have to try to work him into my own game now -- that sounds like too much fun to play. How would/did you deal with your players trying to circumvent this plot twist? I mean, if I were Clueless's player, I'd right away be...

Just goes to show, doesn't it? The only good Simpathetic is one that's in two or more roughly equal-sized pieces...

I vote for pretty much all the books that WOTC kept cranking out once they'd run dry of ideas. The Complete Whatevers... expensive hardcover reprints of their softcover books. Arms and Equipment Guide, the 160-page shopping list. And I'd have to mention the Planar Handbook, just because it's...

I can imagine! Harn the setting is neat. Harn the RPG system, however, is not so much a roleplaying game as a fascinating way to simulate losing multiple limbs and then dying of infection afterwards. Looking forward to reading more. Good start!

I hate to burst your bubble, but did you ever see The Conqueror? John Wayne as bloody Genghis Khan. It's as bad as it sounds. Wayne trying to act like an Asian barbarian in bad makeup while speaking with a silly accent is quite possibly the saddest thing I've ever seen on celluloid. Sorry...

I'm from a more recent generation, and I can still remember that I thought Westerns were cool growing up. The point at which they lost their appeal was when I started learning the actual history behind the mythology, which is rather cruel and frightening. Once you open up that can of worms, the...

I love games like that. We've got a game that's been going since shortly after 3.0 came out, and we recently got a new player for our weekly group. "Well," I told him, "it's kind of complicated. I'll write you a summary to get you up to speed." One thesis-sized document later... :eek:

Poor, poor Clueless. It's just so difficult being a man of mystery and intrigue with a high Charisma score... I feel for you. ;) Excellent update! It's nice to see the edges of the plot starting to take shape.
