You know I find something very odd. You see I was a player in one of Rune's last games. The Oriental Adventures with a twist game. Myself and another VERY good player rootbeergnome decided since there was no story line and only fighting we should play your typical dwarf. We decided to play dwarven brothers, which turned out to be one of the best characters (not because of the game, but because of myself and rootbeergnome) I have played. We played our characters so well in fact and had so much fun with them that Rune asked us to STOP PLAYING, because we were "taking away from the party". I think it was because everyone else in the party loved our characters and saw how much FUN IT COULD BE to actually play. So I find it odd that right after rootbeer and I left college you decide to play a dwarf campaign. Could it have been inspired by oh DrunkenDwarfSnores and StrongDwarfStands????
Whaddya talkin' about?
That was the only game I've run with a strong story line.

You all were just slow in picking up the hooks!
All good-natured bitterness aside, though, welcome back, Ghost. In answer to your question, yes...and no. The dwarves, if you'll remember, drastically altered the tone of the game, which
was somewhat like horror. The campaign briefly overdosed on humor, for a while. It wasn't really the dwarves so much as the massive amount of "in character" table-talk that continually destroyed the atmosphere. That and the fact that neither of you seemed to be able to show up on the same night.
Consequently, I knew that the next time dwarves are allowed dominate the game, it had better be in a campaign that they actually fit in. So now, I'm running a campaign that's supposed to be dominated by dwarves. It's designed specifically for it.
However, the main inspiration wasn't you. It was (as the title of this thread indicates) Wulf's excellent book on the subject. His other books will also find their way into the campaign, by the way, but probably not with PCs. At its heart, I envision the campaign as a dwarf campaign until the end.
Drunken Dwarf Snores and Strong Dwarf Stands
were great characters, though.
Oh, and about the updates: sorry about the delay, folk. Real life ate me. I'm still struggling to get free.
