"Brace yourselves, lads. Here they come!" If we hack through the spiderwebs in a given square, can we remove them? (Not that I'm planning on it - just curious.)

Zardi's grip tightens around his axe...he seems glad that he finally has something to kill. Attempting some Nature and Perception rolls... Perception: Perception (1d20=17) Nature: Nature (1d20=12) meh...not that great.

Zardi lifts his axe into position for a strike... "Goldenhorn...Spider...do you think these things are dangerous?" Peering at them through the trees, he asks: "Could they be spiderwebs or something?" Haven't used an online dice roller in a while, just making sure I've got it down. I'm...

At the mention of Goblins, Zardi's eyes narrow and his brow furrows noticeably. "If we come across the small little goblins, you may have their heads, Spider...but if we are met by the bigger ones, the Bugbears...then I will have my own vengeance on them." As he is speaking, Zardi reaches up...

Following the rest of the party below decks, he has to duck just to get through the doorway. Calling out to the Minotaur ahead of him, he says: "Goldenhorn...I don't believe they made these ships with folks of our size in mind, eh?"

Zardi nods to Spider, with a slight smile on his lips. "I don't know much other than fighting. It is in my blood to fight...and to win." Zardi straightens up as he looks out across the ocean and squints into the setting sun. Changing the subject, he asks: "So...why do they call you Spider?"

The gang plank squeaks and bends dangerously under the weight of the Goliath as Zardi makes his way to the deck of the ship. He stands there for a minute or two just observing the action - he's never been on a sailing vessel before. He is (understandably) a bit uneasy... "I'm from the...

Zardi raises his axe slightly and nods to Mallaby. Once Mallaby leaves, he gathers his small pack together and heads out into the night after him.

The Goliath stands up from his booth in the corner, picks up his great-axe, and walks forward to join the quickly-growing throng of adventurers in front of Lord Mallaby. "M'lord" he says firmly..."I am Zardi, the last son of the Stonewolf tribe. If you need a strong axe on your journey, I am...

Zardi lets the bartender fill his mug once more, then retreats back to his booth in the corner, muttering questions to himself. "...where did all these crazies come from? I just need a job...I don't understand all these strange...things arguing..."

Zardi, a level 1 Goliath Barbarian is certainly interested. I've been hanging around the tavern for quite some time now, and have yet to go on adventure. This is my first character, so I don't have any others running... Thanks for starting the adventure!

Well, one of the players could not make it to session #3, so I had them play out a non-main-plot side quest. A player from my other campaign was able to fill in, so I had his paladin approach the group and offer them a job. A small keep north of town had been overrun by orcs, and the lord...

After their rest, they headed up to the roof of the tower to face the final encounter (see the article for details again). There's not much in the way of scenery, but here's what it looked like (I forgot to take any pics of the actual battle, sorry.): After the conclusion of this little side...

Session #2: After clearing the area of frost goblins and patching up poor Glimzig, they left him to make repairs while they headed towards the icy spire they saw in the distance. This next section is right out of "Draigdurroch Tower" from Dungeon Magazine #159. I modified a few minor things...

Mr. Fairweather gave them the task of discovering why the weather has been so unpredictable lately. "As you may know, we had a blizzard yesterday!" It's been bitter cold for an hour or two, then will get mild again, then will start snowing. This will wreak havoc on the crops, as it's not time...

Waking early the next morning, the group headed to Mr. Fairweather's office for the reading of the will. Let me preface this by saying that not all of the characters know who this Magnus Valentino is, or why they are included in his will. Sledge (the Dwarf) and Geoff (the Paladin) are both...

The players: Brocc - Gnome Psion Sledge - Dwarf Fighter Mallick - Human Ranger Geoff Wilikers - Human Paladin Supahiro - Half-elf Warlord Two of them came from Hammerfast, and the others from Harkenwold, all traveling to Fallcrest at around the same time. This is where we started the...

I'm currently DM'ing another long-running 4E campaign also set in the Nentir Vale, but there are a few guys outside my group that have really wanted to play, so I created this short adventure to satiate them (and me) and welcome a new player into our ranks. There are 5 players plus myself...

The Goliath stands up from his large booth in the corner and walks forward again. He looks at the most recent arrivals chatting and drinking by the bar and quickly nods to each in turn. Hulloh... Zardi places his tankard on the bar and waits as the bartender refills it. As the dwarf lets out...

We use a lot of paper minis in my campaign (especially for hordes of zombies), so I will just remove the mini from its base and lay it down. It looks really cool, actually...all of those dead zombies scattered across the battlefield...
