[QUOTE="JiffyPopTart, post: 3679813, member: 4881"] We are just now starting a new campaign after getting TPKed at the next-to-last adventure in the Age of Worms. Everyone agreed that high level play wasn't worth the effort and decided to start over at 2nd with a new game rather than see the AoW through to the end. The new game is just starting out but as evidenced by about 10 pages of written story I have collected people are putting effort into characters rather than just stats on paper. So far we have... Keith - GM, awesome guy we met through the ENworld personals some years ago. Don't think you ever met him though. Has a cavernous basement that hosts the game. Smartin - Wood Elf Non-Spellcasting Ranger Me - Wood Elf Feral Druid Muench - Cleric of Tyr A Justin - Cleric of Tyr B Reis - High Elf Samurai So far the politics of the group has been a strong elf vs. everyone theme (The rangers 2nd favored enemy is going to be humans). The plot hasn't really started yet since we are only rolling into our 3rd adventure. The basic idea will be a "What happens if the PCs failed the Age of Worms" thing. I suspect massive amounts of undead creeping across the land. And yes, the discussion about the ethos of Tyr ended up being way more memorable and though provoking than the actual goblin battle was. I can see how, in a not-so-good gaming group you would want to avoid things like this to keep everyone involved but in this case all the players are friends outside of the DnD table so the point of the game is to hang out and enjoy each others company, not necessarily to get XP and loot. We actually WANT these kinds of things to happen to have something to remember. DS [/QUOTE]
