Against the Shadow V - A Faded Glory Story Hour

[Old One]

Re: back for more!

I too like Captain Rook. He reminds me of the pirate captain from the latest adaptation of The Count of Monte Cristo. I also agree with the 'pirates' v. 'bandits' assesment of Reds v. Greens, respectively.

Who voted for what course of action? The 3-2 split intrigues me.
And what about the halflings. Too bad there is no longer one with the party....

Broc -

Thanks for droppin' in! It is not quite as bad as "pirates vs. bandits"...but then again, maybe it is!

IIRC - the vote was Quintus, Sextus and Rosë (stay and help the "Reds") vs. Lew and Rowan (leave town and let them fight it out). If Corey or Tortoise pops in, they can refresh my ailing memory!

You weave a tangled web, Old One...

Great plot devices, looking forward to seeing how it all plays out!

Thanks for cruisin' by! My subtitle on this whole campaign is Wheels Within Wheels! I like to see how paranoid and off-balance I can keep the party. So far it is working pretty good...

ONe memory refreshment coming right up!

Rowan voted for a pound of flesh while Rose just wanted to leave.

Once you can post Rowans previous write-up it'll make sense why he'd vote that way. He wants to leave badly, bu feels there's something very bad here that needs dealing with if Glynden is to stand a chance of surviving.

Monday

Tell me why i don't like mondays, tell me...

Oh, i know, i have to wait for the next installment here. *tapping fingers impatiently*

And to see where all those plots and hooks will lead. or if "the fish catch the fisher"?! Hope the band had more luck than the ToEE could suppress!

I AM BACK!

Finally back to reading this story hour. Mental note: Don't take vacations for more than one week without internet access.

Pirates vs Bandits: Love it. I mean, I always loved brigands as well as pirates... more panache than your typical ogretribe!

Story hooks: Has it occured to any of the players that Abrigal might as well be the mysterious "R"? I mean, noone has ever mentioned his suspicions. And it seems logical (How many female necromancers walk around the countryside in a wayward hamlet called Glynden?)

Roses chewing: Love it. Love it. Love it. Played barbarians for years and he still surprises me and brings on actions I haven't seen or read for years!

Old One: Did you read that? I actually wrote "seen for years". Praises to your writing!

As for leveling up: Did I remember right, someone wanted to multiclass? Will you refresh the Rogues Gallery with their stats ?

Old One, you've just reminded me how great it is when a GM does a little summary of the key plot points like that. It always helps put things in focus for me and remind me of some of the seemingly minor plot threads that are still unresolved.

I will have to do the same thing in my own Story Hour in the near future. We are headed for a little bit of "down time" for the party and a lot of stuff should come to light.

Great job. As always, you are an inspiration to me.

(But I stop well short of singing Wind Beneath My Wings or any such crap as that.)

Tortoise,

Thanks for refreshing my ailing memory!

I will post your Interlude soonest...

Dougal -

I don't like Mondays either! Our computer network was out most of the day and I was too tired when I got home to do anything, so I must beg for your patience for one more day...

Darklone -

Welcome back, my friend! Hope your holiday was enjoyable...

There has been some speculation that Abrigal is "R", particularly by Lew and Rowan. Quintus doesn't buy it, though, and the others have deferred to him in his judgement. She did come by to see him during one of the party's sojurns away from town and no one has seen her since...coincidence?

Thanks for the continued readership (and patience)!

Awww, C'mon! Sing it with me!

(key horrible, off-key singing) "You are the wind beneath my wings. Fly. FLy. FLY!"

Rel -

Thanks for droppin' in. Heck, I have so many plot lines running that it helps ME to list them every once in a while! I am definitely looking forward to seeing what your reconstituted band of stalwarts is up to next and I will post an update today if it is the last thing I do!
