[QUOTE="Quickbeam, post: 1819989, member: 635"] Love it, man. I just simply love reading the DM's version of our game session events told from his POV after the fact. This particular night was probably the best session in the campaign to date (with perhaps one or two others competing for that honor), and the results were rather harrowing :uhoh:. For the first time Tson took not one, but two beatings; Boh's Sanity was further compromised, but we learned he has the moxie (and wherewithall) to cast spells; and Konrad just keeps tempting the reaper. The undead construct monster was freaking brilliant IMHO, and the dark sword was equally cool. I believe that Rosham also wielded it for one blow during the fray after Konrad was knocked unconscious. He then slid it along the ground to Tson and began casting that fateful spell...which scrambled his brain while saving our hides!! Also, it was a great plot device having us unwittingly stumble onto the dark lady we've heard so much about, only to have her quickly flee the scene without so much as a backward glance. For those interested, I thought it would be neat (interesting?) to create a savvy, nimble character who was high on intellect and knowledge, but equally low on common sense and impulse control. I realize that building PC's with low Wisdom scores isn't too bright for games which involve Sanity (given that your starting Sanity score is 5x WIS), but it just felt right for this character...and seemed like a [b]LOT[/b] of fun to roleplay. What's made it even better, is that Rosham sees the arcane/occult tomes and relics we've stumbled across as interconnected to his search for knowledge about the great sundering...and thereby the origin of the Gray race. Thus, he can't help reading these accursed texts and further jeopardizing his already fragile psyche. I must say that Rosham Boh is one of my favorite PC's in over 20 years of gaming, and I owe a lot of that to Josh and my game companions Stockdale and shadowlight. [/QUOTE]
