Would you all go to the D&D miniatures galley and pick out a miniature that you want to use for your character? Just tell me which set it's in and the name. Alternatively, if you know how, post the image to this thread. Other mini's are fine, but it has to have a monochrome background...

It takes a few moments for Charlie's eyes to adjust to the relatively bright light in the room. Once they do, she takes in the scene. Three rough looking haflings lounge on the floor. Surround them are empty flagons and dirty plates, the remains of a rich meal. One of them let's out a satisfied...

I've come to the conclusion that I've been assigning too many encounters to a given "quest" or "plot thread." Now days, I'm assigning one to three encounters per minor quest and four to six for major quests. Additionally, just to give it a spin I tried explicitly adopting the minor quest/major...

Upon further inspection, Charlie and Varilar both notice a couple of other things about this building. There appears to be a second source of light within the back half of the first floor. As with the light source near the dice game, thin slivers of light are coming through the crevices between...

The shadows are dark, but not so dark that the visual sense is useless. In fact, the thin slivers of light penetrating the boarded up windows (and they're all boarded up, even those on the 2nd story) provide enough illumination for the Elven rogue to see with perfect clarity. For Charlotte...

Right after you share what you know about guard drakes, you remember a story related to you by an old tracker. He and his companions were being hunted by a pack of guard drakes near Belltower. Like wolves, they used pack tactics, but didn't nip and nibble at the flanks as wolves tend to. The...

You think about it and conclude that Horto is correct. Guard drakes do have keen eyes and ears and are sometime found in the company of spitting drakes. Thankfully, neither of the creatures on the porch seems to be a spitting drake. Jorje's passive nature check of 17 get's him everything that...

Hrm. The link to the conditions tracker is broken because I haven't put the material up yet. The link to the initiative board was broken for a little while, but I changed it and it should be working now. Check the top link again and let me know if it's still not working.

Would you all be so kind as to share your screen resolution with me. The type of web browser you use would be cool too. Any other browsing requirements I should know about? File types that are a real pain to have to deal with?

If she were fully grown, you'd be hard pressed to keep up with her. As it is, the young girl is easy to keep pace with as she leads you through the dark streets of Helen's Reach. The nightly storms have nearly disgorged their entire burden for the evening, and the rain has dwindled to a slow...

The young girl nods approvingly at the Dragonborn kneeling in front of her, then she helps him up. As you are all leaving Sailor's Hope, one of the temple acolytes runs up and places a warm cloak around her shoulders. She turns to Varilar. "I remember now. There were four of them. A tall elf...

"Sea Devils?" Petra's face drains of blood. "How could they . . . Why would they . . . Oh sweet Melora help us." For a moment Petra Shellendo simply stops, his mouth hanging agape in an expression of brainless shock. Then, the befuddlement melts away and some of the old steel returns. "There's...

Getting as close as you can to the smoking letters, the smell of it is overpowering. There's the subtle scent of tallow, though the base animal is unclear. That's probably what gives it the "greasy" look. But the black color? It's definitely not charcoal. You've used that before in some of your...

"Ahem." Petra Shellendo uncomfortably clears his throat. Pieter steps back quietly, nearly fading into the background in that peculiar manner of his. Little Tatiana stares at all of you. She is a fierce hawk of divine vengeance, observing those who will escort her to her prey. Mumbling again...

Tuesday is officially Bump Post day, and as such, I posted to the IC thread. The post describes the state of the Inner Sanctum of Sailor's Hope, who's in it when the party arrives and what's going on. Essentially, the post lets me set the scene so that you all can get into talking about what...

Sailor's Hope Midnight, June 22nd Pieter Anzalli had never seen anything like this in his life. Minor acts of vandalism were uncommon but not unheard of. They were something every temple had to deal with from time to time. A random tragedy provoked rage in those touched by the event, and they...

Heh heh. I like to think of her as past matronly, as her children have grown up and she's a widow. Now she's a weird blend of motherly and saucey. Flirty with some and doting on others. In either case, she's got a steel trap for a mind when it comes to running a business.

Absolutely!

Based on the older usage, Sire is just fine. I hadn't really given much thought to honorifics, honestly. Well, beyond the head of the guard being the "Sherrif" and the hereditary title of the Middle Reaches being "Lord." Zarathas Moonscale Shortly after High Noon on June 21st Zargesh nods and...

Oh. Heh heh. I forgot to dismiss you, huh? Yeah, I was trying to think of a way to fit that in, but couldn't work it out.
