[QUOTE="Joshua Randall, post: 393325, member: 7737"] [b]Re: Re: I used to look down on high fantasy...[/b] Did the party actually play their characters up to these levels, or did you start out at 15th (or whatever)? Just curious. Hunh. I am losing my memory. Gonna have to re-read RttToH myself. I really didn't remember that the Dim Triad were named Absalom, Harrow, and Blaesig. You should definitely go back to SRD's "Illearth War" for more on the original holders of those names. (Well. Absalom is from the Bible so I guess that's the [i]original[/i] original name.) Also, if you can find SRD's short story "Bannor's Tale" (or something like that - I think it's in the collection titled "Daughter of Regals"), it gives the Bloodguard's take on the whole corrupted giants situation. Wow. I would certainly be pretty peeved if my friends left me in the hands of a thousand year old insane mechanical doctor. But maybe that's just me. The Vestige... ah yes. Y'know how some players/parties refuse to retreat even when you give them every hint that they are in over their heads? Well, they'd sure as hell better flee from the Vestige. Or to quote everyone's favorite wizard: "This foe is beyond any of you. Run!" Sorry! I had the erroneous impression that the campaign had already been completed. What?! Only the original net D&D story that started everyone down this path of exceedingly long writeups. You can read the stories here: [url]http://www.myths.com/pub/rpg/stories/navero/[/url] But I warn you, once you start reading 'em, it's hard to stop. [/QUOTE]
