seasong's Light Against The Dark II (May 13)

[seasong]

They prefer to be called "abstract-and-social-challenged". After all, each unique snowflake of a person is good at different things and less at other things. Giants just happen to be good at lugging things around and hurling small boulders. I'd like to see you handcraft a stump, Mr. Thinky.

I'd like to see you handcraft a stump, ...

I'm handcrafting something right now, if you know what I mean, and I think you do...

[snort] Giants, are like little, gentle butterflies, thier seeming simplicity belies a greater artisic leaning...They do not 'hurl' boulders, they loft the smooth pebbles of the earth, in order to observe mother nature, and her natural laws, gently tug the stones back down

The fact that a few dozen men/orcs are underneath the boulders when they land is just a bonus.

I don't think we need to know about that, Stumpy.

Seasong! Updates to distract incognito! Stat!

As with yesterday, unless I get a good lunch break, or things change, I'm hosed for time.

This weekend I'm planning to...
a. Get the characters updated in the Rogue's Gallery.
b. Update my website with some spell lists, specifically healers and espers. I'll have a base list for arcanists, but they're really variable.
c. Start writing the Olympiad. It was reasonably big, so depending on how the writing turns out, I may be posting it over the course of next week. Also, spoiler: Captain Agina was in one of the contests. You will NEVER guess what kind of contest, either.

Also, it seems likely that I will not be running Light Against the Dark this weekend, so I may not have a lot to update this next week (unless the aforementioned Olympiad takes a lot of writing). But I will have something for you to read .

Gahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!! No gamie for Hankie!!

*SNIFF* I guess I'll have time to work on that back up character.

Seasong: I almost hate to see posts like that, but not for the reason you might guess.

I worry about the story hours that I enjoy, when the pressure appears to update, update, update. If it stops being fun, and starts becoming work, then the story hour will die. Thus, I don't want your story hour to become work. This is something that worries me about starting my own story hour as well.

I have a feeling many story hours require more than an hour...

Thus, I don't want your story hour to become work. This is something that worries me about starting my own story hour as well.

Well, let me put it this way: if I think I'm going to be late/absent for a date, I call my significant other and let them know I'll be late/absent as soon as I know. if circumstances dictate that I be late/absent, I don't feel bad about it... but I would definitely feel bad if I didn't give adequate warning.

Same thing here. I enjoy writing the story hour, and if I miss a few days, it's not that big a deal to me... but I'd rather let y'all know as soon as I know, than boost my page views by letting you check and be disappointed.

If you look through the history, I think you'll see that this has been the case - I DON'T make every day, but I do try to let y'all know when I won't.

As for the "I'll have something", that may not have been clear - I have something in mind already, that is not main story land.

I have a feeling many story hours require more than an hour...

I've been told that I type too damned fast .

O.k.

First off seasong, both you and your players need to quit your jobs and start playing DnD every day. That way no longer will we get updates once a day, but once every few hours!

Anyway, keep up the good work seasong, both me and my fiancee enjoy your story hour. I have to say she liked wulf's better but she's very CN/CE. Her favorite character is Olgah, so anything else you can share about Olgah would be great!

Up the fist!

P.S. Help a poor DM out and give me some ideas! Gladiator Campaign

I can think of no finer life. Until the money runs out, anyway. And I get tired of DnD and want to play something else. And my butt turns into a root.

Ayieee! My heart! Tis broken!

Olgah will come back in the future, but when I can not say.

So, my parents were in all weekend, until Sunday, and on Sunday, I completely bombed out. I was frickin' tired. Anyway, I'm not tired this morning, and unless work is unexpectedly tough today, my head is brimming . Of course, now that I've said that...

I've updated Bellos, and should get Merideth updated by this afternoon. When I update Merideth, I will also be posting the healer and esper spell lists.

And today I get to post stuff from the Olympiad. I've decided to post it as a series of vignettes, little stories from the session about individual characters (including some off-screen characters, and of course Captain Agina). We had a LOT of fun when we ran this a week ago, and I will try to get that across in the writing.

Teasers:
Greppa, drunk.
Bellos re-introduces beer.
Merideth, when did your mind get so strong?
