Getting the technical problems out of the way first. We started late due to Nevla's player having serious connection issues and not being able to join until late, at one point I was considering cancelling for the week but fortunatly she connected almost as soon as I started thinking about that...

The Voice of Rot is dead. He died feeling betrayed by his computer software and time pressure leading to the initiative order and then the map all wrecking themselves and the hassled GM forgetting several key abilities making the fight easier than it should have been. The players seemd to enjoy...

I think that Nicodemus before his little night of long knives to weed out the dangerous people from the Ob is Nicodemus close to his best and showing his initial idealism. My players sympathised with him and thought he had good intentions. Then the actual process of changing the world and the...

One thing we did discuss last week was the idea of no Axis island ritual, the players had never discussed it so I asked them about it. They were univerally certain it was a terrible idea, the best result they could hope for in their opinion was going back to the world of the ancients and that...

I let my players know they had a hunch something would turn up for the ritual. Even then Nic had managed to annoy them so much they would not have trusted him to buy a sandwhich let alone fix the world. Using just the 4 icons they picked up earlier and the Ob planes they could do something more...

If you look at my ongoing write up you will see what I am doing. 1) Tailor it to your group. This is the most important thing anything suggested which won't fit your group is bad even if in other contexts it is great. 2) Will your group enjoy playing building blocks with the Gyre and the Axis...

I came very close to adding Bral to the list of worlds in the Gyre, it did not quite make the cut as I had trouble working out exactly what world and attributes it would represent, but Hippo men with guns looked like a good idea

The world configuration is definetly going to be different as they are going to make use of at least some of my custom worlds, however I should have the final arrangement sometime next week, although I won't be absolutely certain until the ritual is completed. I always knew I was going to end...

With the PC's split 4 ways Alais Primos William having spoken to some locals he had prevented the arrest of determine that the Archsecular is in charge of the city and the threat is the four lantern towers , he sneaks to the ruins of the Cathedral and invisibly Kidnaps Morgan Cipriano into an...

I provided ressurection reincarnation strictly as per the pathfinder rules. So its rare with relativly few high level casters and would most probably have been reincarnation from a druid until the pc cleric hit 9th level, or calling in a favour from the clergy. I also use Heropoints which give...

The great planar debate continues Thrag is still the complicated choice. They have however come down in favour of an open universe and a stong defense. Which means that the Battle of Axis Island is on. Nicodemus has allied with the Shining legion (or as they would say he is a useful idiot...

I like the idea of the essense of Governor Stansfield hunting down Deva's and killing them for their spark of immortality so he can rebuild himself and RULE TEH WORLD

Perhaps he loses his job on the farm because the new mechanical reapers and other agricultureal machinery mean less farm workers are needed, then he discovers a talant for public speaking and becomes a leader of the rural league for traditional agriculture which wuld bring him to the political...

My interpretation of how Risur works is that the Dukes/Governors have quite a lot of power and Stansfield is I think present so Romanov could also be there easily. There is also a nice tension between Shale and Flint as Flint is very progresive and technological while Romanov and Shale are...

I think I would want some sort of arguement or other clash between the character and the brother before he joined the Ob or at least before he was know to join the Ob. Perhaps after the pc's are knigted following the banishment of Bourne he could speak meet with the pc and vent at him for being...

Shotgun bayonets are a real thing, they were fitted to Trench Shotguns in WW1 , and I think the limited number of military shotguns still had fixtures for bayonets for many years even if like the bayonets on rifles they are almost never used as weapons.

At the Ziggurat of Av Nevla and Nicodemus had just finished ranting at each other as Nevla expressed her own and her colleagues frustration to Nicodemus that he was blaming them for his own mess and was deaf to reason. He responded by unleashing his strike team of Kaja Stewart, Lauren Cynberg ...

Downward could either be one or many planes combined, I suspect that it will produce a really weird final world but players are crazy. If one plane I would make it either space and time or Space and Earth and the planes trait would be "The world is an escher painting" because that is what the...

I think when considering all the details of the Ziggurats and the Ancients Rituals is that no one who has been alive for the past few thousand years (Except Ashima-Shimtu and any other lingering extra planar beings) knows anything about them except very rudimentaty archeology which does not...

Happy to be of help. Indeed there was no way my players would believe that the ritual Stansfield was performing was the main one, they had enough info to pin that to Axis Island and Bourne. But they did not have time to reach Axis Island and clearly the traitor was up to no good so they went...
