    [Adventure] Marna is Missing (DM: pacdidj, Judge: renau1g)

    Streetwise 1d20-1=5 Nature 1d20+7=12 Ferris has never heard of this Starweed. Sounds innocent though...

    Alternative names for "Hit Points"

    I picked Resolve for a couple reasons. Number 1, in 4e Resolve is a great descriptor for the abstract nature of damaging attacks from Psions to Warlocks to Bards to Warlords which can be described as "morale busters" along with physical damage. Number 2, is that my gf, new to RPGs, has...

    [Adventure] Marna is Missing (DM: pacdidj, Judge: renau1g)

    Ferris looks at Raiko and shakes his head... I can understand yer reluctance Paladin, probably involvin' oaths and whatnot... but I am warning ye, no good will come of traffickin' with that Harge fella... mayhaps he might be leadin' us to somethin' worse than a bit o' subterfuge.... my votes...

    [Adventure] Marna is Missing (DM: pacdidj, Judge: renau1g)

    Ferris accompanies Alnar to the bar to speak to rest of the pack. He nods along with Alnar's recitation... then adds: I have a knack fer knowin' the hearts o men, and my insides are tellin' me that there Harge ain't speakin' clear-tongue... I'd advise against any further dealin's with 'im.

    [Adventure] Marna is Missing (DM: pacdidj, Judge: renau1g)

    Ferris, not trusting the man Alnar is talking with, feels his blood stir. Although he has just met the brash young human, he considers this group his pack, and if there is to be a fray, the pack must fight together. With a low growl, Ferris stands and casually walks to stand behind Alnar...

    [Adventure] Marna is Missing (DM: pacdidj, Judge: renau1g)

    Ferris follows the others into the tavern. Seeing that Alnar and Raiko have engaged the most likely looking contacts, he sits with a grateful sigh next to the fireplace. I wonder how we'll afford passage with this suspiciious bunch Insight 1d20+9=22 Doh! Righteous Brand just got nerfed a...

    [Adventure] Marna is Missing (DM: pacdidj, Judge: renau1g)

    Ferris turns to the others... "What say you, friends? Shall we get in out this wretched cold and find ourselves passage to Kythira?"

    [Adventure] Marna is Missing (DM: pacdidj, Judge: renau1g)

    "I do now...." Ferris mutters to himself and keeps walking.

    [Adventure] Marna is Missing (DM: pacdidj, Judge: renau1g)

    Lovely...more water... Ferris muses to himself as heads towards the docks, almost running right into the huge goliath ahead of him, who seemed to be enjoying the winds and rain more than any sane creature should. The relative coldness of this odiferous city made him long for the warm scents...

    Even Newer Tavern Thread: The Hanged Man

    Ferris sighs..."Another sea journey so soon after the last..." Ferris looks around at his companions "And in such odd company..." Ferris heads out the door.

    Proposal: Allow Character Builder summary sheets in place of EW templates

    My 2 cents. I have just had my first character approved for L4W (and first PbP char ever). I had thought of joining before (a year ago or so) but the character generation process really turned me off. And I must admit it did this time too...I guess I just had more time on my hands recently...

    Dear 4e, Please Stop with the Horrible Portmanteaus!

    I have no problems with the naming conventions as is.... its really a non-issue for me.

    Even Newer Tavern Thread: The Hanged Man

    As one of those staring Ferris feels quick anger at her words fading as he watches the newcomer. Her words, though condescending, are very similar to his thoughts in his redder moods... "Mayhaps Hyrellon was right to send me out... " he mumbles to himself. "If'n I am finding mine own thoughts...

    Even Newer Tavern Thread: The Hanged Man

    Ferris grumbles to himself and looks at the sorry state of his chainmail. Kythira, I just left from there... another sea voyage I expect... Surely my people would not be involved! Ferris yells, although privately he is not so sure. He has been out of touch with the goings on of the elder...

    Even Newer Tavern Thread: The Hanged Man

    Ferris glares at the ghostly apparition, his hand going to his Battleaxe, sure that the Tavern has been invaded by a denizen of the Long Dream... but after an overly-long period of deduction, relaxes... He approaches the image tenatively, re-affixing his axe on his belt. He can feel the...

    Even Newer Tavern Thread: The Hanged Man

    Ferris steps tenatively inside, seeming a bit self-conscious and out of place. By his looks, a Longtooth wearing slightly rusty Chanmail, covered by a white tabard with the forest-green Fang of Dayna, sometimes seen in the more isolated shrines, emblazoned on the front. On his back a dented...

    How useful is DMG2?

    I found it very useful... I have been dm'ing for around 20+ years or so (with some long breaks in there) and really found the section on Companion characters vital for mt group, as we only had 4 players and I wanted to run a module, but didn't feel like adjusting all the encounters. I also...

    Power Cards, Cheat Sheets, and the Wii: Why I want legal PDFs

    As far as images, a 1 month sub from DDI would allow you to download the ENTIRE image archive up to the date of your subscription. This includes all the images from every 4e book, magazine and module. (I also think it might include 3.5 archives). For personal use only of course.

    Your FLGS and You - What's your take?

    My LGS sucks and always has...the same 2 employees have been there for at least 25 years and they are only interested in CCG's and are curt with any other topic. They are also a comic book/used book/cd/movie store. Any RPGS are waaay over the MSRP and the place is showing its age (used to be...
