The Adventures of the Knights of Spellforge Keep- UPDATED 6/6

[Dr Midnight]

Goooood morning everyone...

I see we're chewing on the "who is that?" factor. I must say, I'm REALLY surprised by one of your answers.

Doc, did the knights suck so bad at the contest that you did not include anything in the story or what?

Well, there is that, but mostly it was that we were playtesting a module for DUNGEON and its author, so I couldn't give details out about the adventure. Luckily, though, they sucked so horribly that it made for a nice comic "what the hell" scene.

Did the KotSQ ever actually kill Hedrack, or did he get away?

They killed him, and he dead.

Doc is doing such a good job on the Spellforge brothers, I actually want to see them travel with the group and help out. They would be cool additions.

They're still eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeevil, though. Right?

There was a noise like a candle being gently blown out. A dark form appeared, standing on the grass.

“…Where am I?”

ahh, if he was a real RBDM it would be the 'good' Jamison.

(but will have to side with Morte, one BBEG was just released)

Heh, I loved the "What the hell?" scene, even if I am disappointed to not be able to see the contest. And the "Aw heck, let's just buy it" afterwards was pretty priceless as well - so much for "the fate of the world rests on our shoulders in this contest!"

Hello mortals!

The good lich of the east is back in town! Don't bother dropping any buildings on me I'll only come back 1d10 days later.. REALLY mad!

What did I miss... hmmnn.. Pelor boys... tsk tsk. Meat for the beast I say. Good luck trying to turn me.. I'm effectively 21hd for turning purposes you know.. Can't I use my turning ability to offset the turning score of a good cleric too? lol. yup... pretty sure I can. Anyhow, I have a seat for that Pelor praising pup right here.. Move over Kyla. You got company!

whaahahahahaaaaa!

Anyhow. I thought of a great Idea for my part of the dragon horde.

Who dares enter...HOUSE MORMONT!?

mwhahahahaaaa!

Dr. Midnight, Wee Jas, and Metus, I have a question.

Do you mind if I base a character in the game I play off the storyhour, taking names, places, and events whole cloth from it?

Basically, my character, Phantos Usher, would be the eventual son of Captain Metus. At some unspecified point in the future, Metus would settle down and have a kid.

When Phantos is but a small boy, Metus sets out on a vague journey, and never returns. Eventually Vec learns of his death. The old lich decides to adopt the boy as the son he cant have. He trains him as a cleric of Wee Jas. Eventually, Phantos grows restless, and decides to set of adventuring.

At this point Vec tells him of Metus's quest, for the Narn Codex, an ancient spellbook which records the insanely cool spell Undeath to Life. So both to honor his father, help his adopted father (who by this time grows weary of undeath, and wishes to die as is the truly proper way), and serve his godess by finding honoring the knowledge of those who came before, he sets of to adventure.

Is this ok with you guys, or should i think up something not so... stolen?

Thanks,
Irony

 

[Dr Midnight]

My one consideration is: will there be a story hour featuring the character? If so, I'd like to decline my "permission", for what it's worth. Otherwise, Rock On with Capital LetterS.

 

[Metus]

Well I certainly wouldn't have a problem, although it'd be me agreeing more with the use of my name then the actual character. As proud as I am to be mentioned in this SH, my character really is Doc's and Wee Jas's creation.

But I can think of some problems that arise. What if Metus were to eventually turn undead. How would he have kids? What if Vek eventually died (for good)?

But this is all conjecture, really. It's for the guys up top to decide.

Re

You can, it just depends on the boys level. They sound as though they are fairl tough. They would have to be at least 17th level, or have a magic item that boosts turning level, and then roll fairly decent to turn you.

If they did, and happened to be using greater turning, it would be sayonara Vek, no save and no resistance. hehe.

I don't expect Doc to have the Spellforge brothers try to kill Vek anyhow. Seems they are helping Jamison out.

Re: Re

Naw, we all know the truth. The boys are really evil clerics of Vecna who just happen to know what to say to sound like the "self-rightious Pigs of Pelor." As for the artifact, that was just an illusion. Vecna is taking a personal intrest in destroying the world this time and this way just happens to work for her.

If I turn out to be right, I promise that I didn't read the module (or Doc's mind).


Metus: Don't forget the Marvel 2 universe. It can still be in the future. Just an alternate future that happens to have the same past.

 

[Wee Jas]

I think its a great idea! Total alternate universe stuff.

One thing though...

If I wanted to die a natural death I could just ressurect myself... Undead can be ressurected. The just have to agree to let the spell work. 99.999999999 % of the time thats not going to be the case.

Anyhow.. Wee Jas might not grant the spell.. after all that would be undoing a lot of hard work and might seem like I was ungrateful.. etc etc. I like the book idea!

Go for it!
