Oh, lord... Battered by the waves and the buffeting in his mind, Tarkus somehow manages to keep his feet. His first instinct is to grab onto the mast, but instead he grits his teeth and, through the pounding in his head, shoots holy fire at the abomination which is surging from the waves...

"Huh, looked like a vampire hunter to me," 7 Rabbit mutters sheepishly. "NOW who's jumping to conclusions based on stereotypes?"

Oh, man, I'm gonna spend the entire combat prone. I'm pretty useless at cutting the sails, too. I think my best bet is to Aid Another at getting those sails down... If I lash myself to the mast, what kind of action does it take to free myself? What's the TN to climb the mast?

I assume the squares with the x's are piles of crates and things? Do they block line of sight or anything like that? I figure 7 Rabbit will be at the front, since he was leading us through the streets. I'll put him at H8. "What is your problem with the undead?" demands 7 Rabbit. "So they...

Tarkus stands in the middle of the party, one hand bracing himself on the mast, staring out over the waves. I've placed myself on the map at N13, so that everybody is in range of my Close Burst 5 heals and things. Init: +1 Speed: 5 Perception:17 Insight: 21 AC: 19 Fort: 16 Ref: 15 Will: 20...

It rains overnight, and you're glad of the roof overhead. Surrounded by the village, there's no need to set guards and you get a restful night's sleep. In the morning, in exchange for a small pouch of Lake-town coin, some strapping young villagers haul your boat down the Stair, while you carry...

No, I don't buy Herb-Lore - it's not like in-depth knowledge of the spices is needed to say, "this food's really good!" But Merry is a great trait for social scenes, and 14 is a success for Song, so you get your AP. I guess I wasn't clear - I was going to just count what you posted as a...

I underestimated the amount of work I'd need to do to get ready for my trip this weekend, so didn't have time to post today. Sorry, everyone. I'm out of town until Monday - I'll post again then.

Tarkus spots Kauldron talking to Brenwar and strides over to join them. Although his armour is lighter than the two paladins, his military bearing makes it clear that he is in the company of his peers. "Well met!" he calls to Kauldron, a little surprised to find that he is happy to see the...

"So to speak..." mutters Tarkus. His mouth quirks - despite his stern demeanor, he's no stranger to barracks humour. He nurses his drink as the tavern begins emptying, and wonders whether he should follow. He has felt for a while that he was waiting for a sign from Juna, but nothing seems to...

I strongly recommend the Obsidian system for skill challenges - it lets you increase the difficulty of individual rolls so people like me with +10's don't just roll right over them, without making the whole challenge too hard, and it lets you control the pacing a lot better. Something about...

7 Rabbit bursts out laughing, attracting the vampiric creation's attention. "I come from the Valley of Bone," explains Rabbit. "From the great golden mountain kingdom of Choca Paquiliz. We're all short there. And I am named for the day of my birth - I was born on the day of the Sacred Round...

Tarkus, Level 5 Human Pacifist Cleric, is interested. This is my third character who's on an adventure, so he's definitely low priority!

A hush falls over the crowd as Authiel sings, and when she finishes, they erupt into enthusiastic applause (jolting the old man awake, as he had nodded off, smiling, to the music). Now that Authiel has broken the ice, many of the villages pull out simple lutes and tin whistles and begin singing...

I was going to point to the Wikipedia article that also talks about how Festivus is spreading through the real world... I was just drawing it out, waiting for someone to ask, "No, seriously, what's Festivus?" It wasn't rude at all!

I'll spend 1 healing surge, taking me to 48 hp. A Healing Word or something would put me to full.

Tarkus makes a rude noise. "Decadence. My temple marked the passing of the year by gathering around a simple metal pole, representing strength and unbending purpose, and airing our grievances with our fellow initiates, that the priests could deal with each complaint justly and start the new...

7 Rabbit is already turning away from the wight before he realizes that it didn't fall to his mighty swing. "Eek..." he gulps as his face turns pale. But before it can swipe at him again, Hunzu's blast sends it flying away from him. He takes advantage of the opening to duck away from it...
