    Before I post the next actual update, I would like to say a word about it's origin. The first half of the chapter is based on The Trembling Hill by John Tynes. It is a small adventure that was published in The Campaign Magazine, a d20 magazine by Corsair Publishing. It was also published in...

    Struggle and Strife- A scarred lands storyhour

    Thank you for the bump! Anc, a horserat is much stronger then a horse. It can attack with it's claws and bite and it can use the pin feat. Those five rats can overcome any low level opposition... Incidentally, when the druid released those horserats, I was glad to see how the player of the...

    A Veshian Voyage part 2 During the day, it got even hotter than the days before, and everyone was now visibly suffering from the heat wave, worst of all Niklas. The monk drifted in and out of conciousness, and whenever he fell asleep, he eventually woke up screaming. In spite of the disease...

    Nightfall- you will see how they handle the crisis right next! And Joseph, thanks! We are all enjoying this campaign quite a bit. My players all enjoy the Scarred Lands setting quite a lot, and I think that it will only be getting better now.

    Chapter 8- A Veshian voyage part1 Once they were all healed and rested, Torn approached Eochaid, who was just mending his leatherarmor by the lakeside. “You had mentioned that there is mostly marshlands between here and the next town.”.

    Glad to hear you are still around! :cool: Regarding that Ranger, actually in the battle against the harpies, the player of Torn, the half orc, complained that Eochaid was stealing all the kills- the harpies he shot down had all been heavily wounded by the time he killed them. ;) Apart from...

    Struggle for the Serpent Amphora part 4 of 4 The harpies folded back their wings and shot down, their scythes ready to mow down the young heroes, but they merely inflicted fleshwounds. After the initial attack, the friends took up a defensive formation. Niklas, Torn and Jan held their melee...

    Am I too funny to Dm?

    They call the Scarred Lands "the black book of sickness"? What kind of players do you play with? I mean, this is really odd. Well, I think you should confront the players and ask them to exactly tell you what they mean. Eventually, no one on this board can tell you what they mean, but only them...

    Chapter 7- The Struggle for the Serpent Amphora part 1 The sky darkened in the east and a storm was building up and moving towards the friends. Ben frowned: “This doesn’t look like a natural thunderstorm, there… Whatever the cause, it is not just bad weather.” “All the more reason for us to...

    Serpent Amphora part 5 Ben went on his knees and examined the corpse: "Hmmmm. There are no wounds. No evidence that any weapon was used. Wait!". He pointed at a part of the Asaath's chest that had been burnt:" Maybe magic. Looks like some form of an energy attack.". Jan scratched his beard:"...
