Ambiguously Gendered Return of 'What is the Hivemind?'

[Jdvn1]

You know any planescape material on the web? I peered through the book once, but never got a chance to read the setting.

I love Dark Sun personaly, but I was poor and never got a chance to buy any of the books.

Yeah, Planewalker.com. If that's not the site, do google search for it, it's a pretty big site. Fru mentioned it too.

Part of the issue is that the encounter drug on for so long, and many people had so little input towards the end due to the unconsious thing, that most are just "Whatever we can do to finish this off."

There are a few people being stuborn about what's going on (The Hobgoblins being stuborn as well didn't help), and it's just gotten bad. I know I've been vocal a few times, but either been shot down or simply ignored. Cade isn't exactly a shining becon of personality either, so I've been trying to be careful with how convincing he'll be about it (which seems to have worked, for even Rystil didn't notice that he argued to have them heal the render.)

Very true. This also isn't the first issue to drag on, so we just kind of want to get the game moving.

Dryad Cordial is a magical item from Second Edition. I'm at work, so I don't have my Encyclopaedia Magica here with me, but it basically had two effects:

1) If the drinker is male, he falls asleep and when he wakes up, he's a girl--temporarily, but there is a cumulative chance it becomes permanent.

2) If the drinker is female, she falls asleep and when she wakes up, she has more Comeliness (an optional ability score from second edition that lets you be pretty without impinging on Charisma), temporarily, but there is a cumulative chance that she keeps it and becomes a dryad.

Sexy. Thanks.

So, if a guy drank one, fell asleep, turned into a woman, and turned back, and then drank another, would the comulative chance go up, or is it only second draughts while the first is in effect?

Wow isn't this thread a little long now? I thought 1300 was the cut off for hive threads?

(I'm just suggesting something, not ordering something...)

 

[Jdvn1]

Hmmm... usually I get the hobbit puns, but not the latest...

It's "aiding and abetting"...

 

[Jdvn1]

Because I missed it! Sex-swapping conversations make my world go round, and I missed one. It's too sad.

Dont' worry, I missed it too, and I was somehow in it, I think...

There's no official cutoff. However, when a new one is made, the old one usually dies. I guess a mod just hasn't noticed yet...

I kinda wish you guys would use an OOC gamethread for your 'Rysti's Game' discussion, and not the Hive. It's really the same sort of thing as me going on about my campaigns, everyone else gets quiet when I do, so I do it sparingly. It just seems to be dominating the conversation these days, and it pushes people who don't have imput into it away. I know we can always just post a new topic and drag the hive along with it, but, I just think the Rysti's game discussion is a little.. I dunno.. On Topic?

I'm not going to ask that you stop, as you have every right to continue, I just wanted to complain and gripe a little. I feel a little better.

That takes talent. No wonder you're my hero.

Do you think you could make a new thread without one of the moderators for this forum getting involved? (More than a couple of them are on vacation right now.)
