Collaborative Story Hour--the DOOR from EVERYWHERE

[Tom Cashel]

Hi folks,

I just can't resist posting this invitation to you all to check out our latest Story Hour installments--our experience with an adventure from Dungeon #88 called The Door from Everywhere.

What's so great about this Story Hour, you may ask, that I need to be gumming up the General RPG Forum telling you about it? Well, for one thing it's got four authors, each of them writing the tale from their own character's point of view.

But they aren't just tales...one is a stream-of-consciousness piece on what it was like for the ranger to die ("Death Hurts")...one is a play written by the flamboyant illusionist ("The Nexus of Power')...one is a tale sung by an aged halfling ("A Fireside Tale")...the fourth is the story from the villains' point of view ("The Axe and the Fury")--one that is often neglected.

And all the tales are edited and mixed together by me to preserve the chronology, in posts short enough to read in a few minutes. No novels here!

See you there--let us know what you think.

Sincerely,

Mahiro Satsu
Van Dyksun
Lucius Foxhound
Tom Cashel

P.S. SPOILER ALERT!

Bump

The halfling isn't old in the story. Its really just a ploy to make the DM let me live till he gets old.

Uh, read it.

Actually my tale is even better when juxtaposed with Lucius' play.

pushes the halfling away from the keyboard.

Sorry folks sometimes I just can't control him...

This is brilliant, guys. You've always had a unique way of recounting your adventures, but this is the best yet.

This is pretty impressive praise.

 

[Tom Cashel]

Wow...I hope no one gets bumped off in the next game session...

 

[Tom Cashel]

Yes, they're in for a bumpy ride...

 

[Van Dyksun]

I really got into the melodrama of death this time. I've been working on trying to write a bit more from first person, having concentrated on third person for so long (in creative writing circles, most early instruction says avoid first person because it is so easy to do and yet so hard to do well).

Hey, how do those wagons travel over all those bumps in the road?
