Only on the news. We got all the standard warnings about not looking at it directly. It happened when I was leaving work and the world seemed just a little strange. The light was daylight level but just a little off. It was kinda cool.

Background Piece: Mythology In the Dawn Age came the original mortal race - no one remembers their name or what they were truly like, except that they were powerful beyond mortal ken and were unafraid, even of the gods. They spread out across the planets which orbited their sun, which they...

Somewhat. IMC beholders - which the party haven't encountered yet - are actually mortals who experimented on themselves to increase their mental and magical faculties. The mind flayers are a subsidiary servant race who did most of the mutatin/technical stuff (like the cloners from SWII: AotC)...

Specific request Characters that would work well in a swashbuckling style environment - though not necessarily duellists. Shadow of the Spider Moon setting is essentially tall ships in space.

One way to make a memorable campaign is to take a single given in the setting, change it and extrapolate the effects. Frex: in my original Bushido campaign, set in fantasy medieval Japan, I played with the nobility. In historical Japan, the nobility and the imperial family were marginalised by...

Bump without shame

Part 5: Evil in Holly Canal (1) Upon our return to the mind flayer laboratory we were divided as to what we should do next. With barely a wave, Orallec left us. Whatever he took from the mind flayer’s work table was what he had been searching for and with that, he felt no inclination to remain...

And the judges scores? 5.8 5.9 5.9 6.0 5.7 5.9 Yes, a marvellous performance!

Marvellous

Ahh, but you forget, DM's are immune to sneak attacks and criticals, just like all other oozes.

OT You want to get your "manhood back as a nation" by cutting defence spending? Boy, you really are a visionary. I think that "more macho" and "less guns" is like talking a foreign language to Republicans. A foreign language like, sanscrit, frex.

Excellent characters, WayneLigon. Thanks

Since we're both on the same time, you know I'm at work while doing this. The one saving grace of an office job, web access.

Yes, sorry, cash as per DMG. We started out with a treasure light campaign but now we're about up to speed, I think.

A clarion call goes out - new adventurers must be found to trounce evil, get into strange, challenging and possibly humourous situations and generally roll dice until the fat lady sings. This is a request to the boards. My campaign is reaching a bit of a crossroads and some of my players are...

I like Call Weaponry - get yourself captured and then enjoy a round of surprise as you summon a wepon and go from unarmed to armed in your enemy's midst.

How about an opposed roll paladin's wisdom versus the evil being's charisma? Perhaps modified by Knowledge [Religion] vs. Bluff?

LMAO

I don't know if this will help, but I've just had a series of sessions where at least one player didn't show up for every session. What was worse, it was always a different player. I'm not critical of my players in this - they informed me ahead of time mostly, and it was business or family...
