I guess I got the impression that you had taken a hiatus from the game playing and hence the story and were going to start it again.
Ah, hence the confusion. Let me update you on the status of our game group and the Story Hour:
My campaign went on hiatus back in late May. We were at a good stopping point and I felt like I needed a break.
So what did I do then? I ran a 3 session "mini-campaign" with the Star Wars d20 system. It was a lot of fun.
Meanwhile, the player who ran Raven in my campaign put together a campaign for us and we started that up. We suffered a Total Party Kill in the 6th session of that game. Thus ended the short but interesting life of Gnoblin the Gnome (my character). After some discussion, we decided that that campaign could not be resurrected in any satisfactory manner (the campaign was tightly focused around the characters in question).
So we then passed the torch to the player who ran Rhys and Scar in my campaign (The Lone Corndog). A couple weeks later we started that campaign which we are now playing. I'm playing Sarthas Kaga (named in honor of the late Chairman Kaga of these boards) who is a Ranger/Cleric of Obad-Hai. You may recall seeing some discussions about his character concept on the Rules board (he dual wields spiked shields).
At about the same time we started that campaign, I also started running a solo campaign for my wife. Her Wizard is going to be running through The Sunless Citidel and Forge of Fury along with some other adventures that serve as bridges between them.
The implications of all of this for this story hour and any other potential story hour threads I might write are as follows:
I'm still not caught up with where we went on hiatus with my Faded Glory campaign. The biggest battles against the forces of evil are still upcoming and I'm desperately scrabbling for notes and memories to make sure that the write ups are as accurate as possible. I've probably got at least a half dozen or more updates until we reach the break point for this campaign.
I decided not to write story hours for the two campaigns that have been run by the other guys who played in mine. I figure that I'm bad enough with keeping this one updated that I don't need any others right now.
When I do finish updating this one to the point at which we went on hiatus, I will probably do a SH for my wife's solo campaign.
I expect that The Lone Corndog's campaign will last for some time to come (although we did almost have a TPK in our first fight with some goblins). After that, it is likely that Speaks With Stone will run a game of some sort. Presumably then it would be "my turn" again.
If so, I'll probably crank Faded Glory back up and try my hand at a mid-high level game with the same (or at least some of the same) characters that were in the game at it's conclusion.
So there you have it.
