    It would be cool, but the problem is, that it's more work for the very people on here (DMs and Judges) who are already doing the bulk of the heavy lifting. It would be nice if people who are not DMs would volunteer to keep up adventure pages for the adventures that they're on, but we can't...

    Adventure: Get Me to the Church on Time (DM: BenBrown, Judge: Renau1g)

    Okay, I'll note that. Just to clarify, right now you've got the element of surprise. If you want to start from here, start with that, but if you want to do some re-positioning while still hidden in the brush, you'll need to make stealth rolls and possibly lose surprise. You still win...

    Fenwick considers this new axe he's picked up, but decides to stick with his old reliable for the time being. He stows the axe on his back, steps around the corner, and charges at the skeleton, his axe rattling its bones.Minor: stow Stang Move: to E18 Standard: Charge to C18, Howling Strike...

    Adventure: Get Me to the Church on Time (DM: BenBrown, Judge: Renau1g)

    Thais leads the party off on to a side trail, old and poorly kept, but still well-trodden. It goes up a broad valley through heavy woods. A small stream passes back and forth across the trail several times, and the mud around the fords shows the prints of heavily-shod hobgoblin feet. The...

    Adventure: Get Me to the Church on Time (DM: BenBrown, Judge: Renau1g)

    I just realized I never did the short rest healing after the last encounter. Here's the status of the PCs: Goldenhorn: HP 30/37, Surges 10/10 Spider: HP 31/39, Surges 10/10 Tyris: HP 14/29, Surges 7/7 Zardi: HP 27/48, Surges 10/11 I'm going to assume that everyone uses enough surges to get...

    "Indeed," Mallaby says, "Master Sarak speaks the truth. I, with my companions, will aid you in this, for Ismene is no shrinking damsel in distress, and if she is taken, it must be by a formidable foe." "It was another bunch of Hobgoblin slavers," Thais says. "They may have been coming to...

    Nope, not a judge, just someone who had some free time last weekend.

    Before departing, Mallaby takes the carved wooden box dropped by the eagle and safely stows it away. Then he turns, and leaves the ruined chapel, back up the path by which the party entered. The day is much as before, clear and sunny, but there is a less excited mood in the air as the group...

    "No, I do not think he is responsible for the spirits here," Mallaby says. "He knows nothing of this place, nor cares. His ancestors lie here, but he has shown no regard for them--I do not mean neglecting this place, for Allaria is a dangerous place, but he has used the book of rituals, which...

    [Adventure] Serpent's Skull: Souls for Smuggler's Shiv (DM: Mewness; Judge: THB)

    Hú Lí examines the bones with a good deal of curiosity. "Bones can tell tales," she says. "With only bones, we may not answer Castile's question, but we could find a mark, a trace, a telling sign of what killed him. Alas, the bones here tell little, but Kane may be right with his adage...

    [Adventure]: Land Ho! FWBTHW (DM:H.M.Gimlord,Judge:Ozymandias79)

    When the defender bites Fenwick, he lashes out, battering it solidly. Once Gensai has wallopped the other one, he strikes again, destroying the monster. He breathes in heavily, as if drawing strength from his fallen foe, then steps over to where Stang is lying and picks up the axe.Immediate...

    You don't need to be a judge to make a proposal, just to vote on one.

    "But do I love her?" Mallaby says, "Had she sent me on an impossible quest to begin with, I would have gone with no thought of danger. Had she ever told me she was upset, I would have listened. I could have changed my ways, if not without regret. But she did none of these things. This was no...

    "I too will keep watch here," Hú Lí says. "Together we all will escape this place." She taps twice on her drum, and sings in a determined tone: "A lone twig is pushed along by the stream; Many twigs combined can dam a mighty river. A single shaft snaps when bent; Arrows bundled together bend...

    Fenwick struggles groggily to his feet and plants his axe in the middle of the remaining creature in front of him. Move: Stand Up Standard: Tiger Claw Rage vs. Iron Defender 2: 11(1d20) +14 +2 = 27; 12(2d12.minroll(3)) +9 = 21That bloodies it, so the next attack by Fenwick or one of his allies...

    Mallaby takes the letter from Tyris's hand, looks over the seal and the writing. "Ah," he says, "a missive from my intended. I hope all is well with her. Let us find out the reason for her delay." He produces a short knife and cuts the seal open. As soon as he has done so, the letter begins...

    I've only used the one so far. This turn I'm not going to be doing much other than making death saves, though.

    The box contains a rolled piece of parchment, sealed with a waxen seal, with the name "Adelin Mallaby" written in fine script above the seal. Under the seal are a quartet of strange symbols.The seal is that of the Terconis family, to which Mallaby's bride-to-be belongsThe symbols are standard...

    The box is about eight inches long, square in cross-section, and just under half as thick as it is long. It is made of some sort of hardwood, and its panels are carved in a braided pattern. It's a good solid piece of work, but of no great value. One side is hinged with a hasp of brass...
