Matlal uses the distance from his spear to look around and spot Andrec recently finished with charging a zombie. He defends with his spear as the zombie flails uselessly at him, and retorts with an inconsequential glancing slice against the undead flesh with his spear. He shouts out to Andrec as...

Matlal is still going through the intricacies or ordering food when hears the commotion outside and begins to look around curiously. He was new to the city, but this seemed out of place. As the word "zombie" began to ripple from mouth to mouth around the street the barbarian couldn't help but...

Away from home, I'll have the character sheet up tomorrow. Matlal is still chillin' in the restaurant.

Well, I just went for the background language benefit. I certainly never mean to seem difficult, it's just bothersome when a character is 99.9% where one wants it, with one little snag. But, it's all worked out now. Still needing a judge review for Matlal, sent in the email 13 days ago.

Can only get one bonus from that, and I went for stealth as a class skill (relatively important to the character concept, sneak in then go into shock-trooper mode). I could possibly compromise there, although substituting a language and dropping literacy would be preferable. Mostly because...

But... but... I want my Aztec-talk. Also, if I'm going to make the change, should probably try to get it done before any rolls come up in the Zombies and Crooks adventure. On a random note, if I do go half-orc in about a bazillion years at level 12 I'll be able to charge 12 speed (13 if...

I'd never put it in a game I DM'd, but a PbP can afford to be a tad more complex sometimes, given the fact you have about 24 hours to play out the mechanic. Still, KISS is usually good advice.

If you really wanted you could play 4-Square with them and roll a D4 once or twice to determine Northeast/Northwest/Southeast/Southwest square. More randomness and realism, but more complex to work out. It's similar to some chaos sorcerer's mechanics, in a way. This has a risk of covering more...

Matlal went down the street after Montroya, probably slowing the Deva down a bit as he eyed the fish for something he might recognize. Not particularly satisfied, he finally came upon The Raging Seagull. If any establishment would be able to sate his hunger, it'd probably be here. " 'Eya...

Matlal turns to the Deva and nods his approval. He gave a friendly parting grin to Veruzak, the Eladrin would bring plenty of interesting trouble for the barbarian later no doubt. "Ja, no pigs from I's tribe, lossa fish on da river though." He hears his formidable stomach rumble and knows it's...

Well, the only thing that'd I'd really have to figure out is -why- Matlal is there. Once the pandemonium starts it's rather natural by Matlal's personality to join into the fray. Additionally, although he isn't "good", Matlal has a philosophy of protecting innocents who don't involve themselves...

Is there any use to the giant language, and could it be reasonably substituted for something else (like Magari), if the judges are alright with it? It's pretty much the only thing keeping me from playing a half-orc, as I think Magari should be the dominant language in the Valley of bones, and it...

Like I've said, I'm definitely up for it. I'm not approved yet, but I'm halfway there. Matlal has some defender-ish leanings, even if he is a striker. When do I need to get Matlal out of the inn and into the alley? Matlal observes the newcomers to the bar as the ever talkative Veruzak begins...

Edit: Due to a language issue (couldn't take Magari) and a few other things that came into play once I tried making the changes, I'm deciding against my previous request. Disregard.

But, we're trying to drink open the doors of perception here! I mean... wot?

What's the details on blowgun training, I'm curious?

Perhaps the Dauntonian warforged were seen as a sign of decadence that made Old Daunton weak and allowed for it to be destroyed, they were being used as a crutch rather than a tool. Too much time away from Vulkar's "progress through conflict" philosophy made them conquerable. It's worth noting...

Since it hasn't been done I figured I'd go here to see if it'd be cool for me to write in a description for Vulkar in the Twelve Gods section. Originally this started off as brainstorming the role and portfolio of Tezcatlipoca (his Valley of Bone alter ego), but with some slight modifications I...

I just thought of one in-game no-go of mine that is probably a fairly uncommon dislike. I absolutely hate campaigns that are heavy on economics. I don't really care about collecting gold, and I'll usually give it away to anyone that wants it. When I DM games I usually just tell everyone that I'm...

I'm not a drinker myself, but I game with fairly libertine people. Alcohol and other drugs aren't uncommon, but if anyone gets too drunk to play they're sleeping on the lawn. I'm generally fine with somebody drinking 2 beers during a game. Aside from beer, opiates are banned at my table, but a...
