Greyhawk: The Divinity Maneuver (A Menagerie of Perspectives, 8/9)

Watching you breath life into events that happened well over a year ago is very entertaining for me, ForceUser. =)

The characters in this story are exceptional down to the last. Travis, Falco, Dera and the rest all have their own quirks and mannerisms that make them seem much more fleshed out than your typical story hour characters.

Even if you dont rotate the perspective throughout the entire story hour doing it for each character in the beginning is a great idea. It gives each character a chance to shine and allows the reader to get to know each one at least a little.

Great stuff Force User, I am putting this one on my list of must reads By the way I love the title very catchy, its what got me to read the story. I guess a snappy title can make allt he difference, heheh.

If I say it a third time, will it keep you posting updates?

But seriously, I really like the look of this. Good writing, interesting characters, your Vietnamese SH was fascinating which bodes well, and rotating the perspective is giving them personality that large party SHs often seem to lack.

A few dozen more updates will be very welcome.

I liked the name so much I started using it on my PC files in which I organize the game. ForceUser is very good at this kind of stuff, no doubt!

I was going to shorten that to FU but that just doesn't come out as intended

Ah, but it's funny. Good work as always FU!

Very interesting beginning. It's joined my list of subscribed threads.

Are these characters at level 1 or higher? The (possible) PC death at the start implies a higher level, I suppose, but with the background so far I'm not entirely sure.

At the start of the story hour the PCs are around 5th level. The campaign started at 1st-3rd, and currently the PCs are knocking on the door of 7th-level spells, so there's a lot of story to tell to get us from here to there.

Regarding Rakahn, he was my original character whom I decided to retire because I felt the party could use a cleric. The DM ran with it and killed him off, which he used as the plot device to introduce my new character, Falco, to the group.

M. Rose suggested this story to me and I took a look. I think I read you stuff long ago...did you write a Star Wars story?

Anyway, I really like the characterization done from the point of view of each person's perspective. It is also unique to see how the three members of the group you've written from so far, see the other party members.

also...I can't wait until the party tackles the forces of Iuz!

Yes, almost two years ago at this point. It was a short-lived campaign that ultimately flopped; we just couldn't get into d20 Star Wars. I chose the handle ForceUser because I figured I'd be writing a SW story hour for a while.

I'm never one to miss the opportunity to kill off a character!
