    I know, he really looked terrible last night. I'm so depressed... :( Aaron Rodgers looked surprisingly good. They kept it closer than I though they were going to. Doesn't bode well for the playoffs, though. Hopefully Favre's injury isn't serious. I haven't heard anything.

    Six Nights to Yearsend (Ptolus Group B)

    Kantris quirks an eyebrow at the story. "Oh, I see. I misread things," he says flatly. "Maybe it was our killers that were under the enchantment I detected. We should go talk to them."

    Deuce Traveler's Six Nights to Yearsend (Ptolus one-shot)

    I'm still here. Just trying not to hog the spotlight. I'm ready to go examine the other crime scene. EDIT: Spoke too soon. I hadn't read the latest IC posts. Obviously I now vote we go interview the killers.

    Six Nights to Yearsend (Ptolus Group B)

    As he moves about the room, Kantris observes, "It doesn't look like there was much of a fight with the watch. I suspect they were tampered with." He taps his temple to clarify his point. "I wonder why, though. I can't imagine anyone who could defeat these knights would have trouble with a...

    Heroes Season [Volume] 2 (#33)---11/26/07-'Truth & Consequences'

    I can puzzle my way through a fair amount of written Spanish, but when people speak it at normal speed I'm completely lost. *shrug*

    It was unbelievable. You couldn't even see the players' feet most of the time because they were sinking into the quagmire. Worst conditions I've ever seen, I think. And that's after decades of watching the Packers play. :)

    Heroes Season [Volume] 2 (#33)---11/26/07-'Truth & Consequences'

    But he told him in English, which Alejandro doesn't (didn't) speak. That was purely for the audience's benefit (and Sylar's ego, I suppose). I thought the episode was pretty good, actually. Yes, there were problems with it, but all in all I thought it was fine. I don't think Claires' grief...

    what to do if you gave too much power?

    Often times these things sort themselves out. When I first started running 3.5 I gave a couple of the PCs items that were too good for their level (started at 6th). I was just stingy for a few levels and everything worked out. In the meantime they kicked a little more butt than they otherwise...

    Scrags aka sea trolls

    IMO, the rules are irrelevant here. It will be a cool moment in the game, and isn't completely out of line. Just do it. :)

    Six Nights to Yearsend (Ptolus Group B)

    Kantris bows his head and covers his eyes for a moment as he confronts the grisly scene, but a wry half-smile can be seen on his lips as Glau begins his tale. "Oh, not Uncle Braun again," he moans good-naturedly. He drops his hands and with a deep breath begins to examine the area with as much...

    Scrags aka sea trolls

    That sounds awesome. Let it rain! Make sure to require some kind of check to keep the torches lit in the deluge! :)

    Scrags aka sea trolls

    So avoid the question entirely. Stage the fight in an appropriately dramatic spot (like on a bridge) and have the troll fall in. Once it's feeling better it can sneak out of the water and come after the party a little more cautiously. Just because trolls are generally stupid killing machines...

    I know, it was weird. Madden said the same thing, pointing out that even if it had worked, they'd be turning the ball back to the Pats with four minutes on the clock and less than a touchdown lead. They should have kept up with the screens and inside patterns that had been working all night...

    Wow. So the Pats pulled it out, but my favorite bit was Bill Belichick after the game. Everybody was stunned that it was so close and talking about this huge near-upset, etc. The coach comes out for his post-game press conference and says, "Yeah, that was pretty much what we expected. The...

    Did you see Keith Olber (I think that's his name) on TV? "Do not kick to Hester. Do not kick to Hester!" I think I and three other people in the country found it funny, but I was cracking up. :)

    Leadership Followers

    Another option is to give him an affiliation (PHB II) with the city due to his willingness to help out and great renown. Then give him a Commander Rating from Heroes of Battle and I think you're good to go without a feat at all. It shouldn't be unbalanced because the affiliation gives him...

    It's almost the end of the third quarter in the Patriots/Eagles game. Score: New England 24...Philly 28. The crowd at Gilette is all but silent, as stunned as I am. The game is far from over, but...wow. I predicted the Eagles would be tougher than anybody gave them credit for, but I never...

    Six Nights to Yearsend (Ptolus Group B)

    Kantris nods at the guard's reply and says, "No report of anything unusual in the neighborhood then? Very well, let's have a look at the bodies." He follows the others up the stairs to examine the unfortunate knights. "You know," he speculates as they climb, "It's possible the door closed in...

    Yay Packers! Next Thursday should be interesting. :)

    Deuce Traveler's Six Nights to Yearsend (Ptolus one-shot)

    You know, it just occurred to me to mention this. Tomorrow is a holiday here in the U.S. and my company is also closed on Friday. I will probably be "off the grid" until at least mid-day on Friday, possibly later. I'm sure there are other Americans in the game who will be in the same boat.
