The Adventures of the Knights of Spellforge Keep

[Metus]

Holy schnikies! I'm gone for a few weeks and everything goes all crazy-like! Well wow. Ooookay...

Firstly, I'm all caught up and I loved every minute of it. I laughed at plenty of parts, including one of Vek's lines and your "beating a dead horse" response (my most favorite). The characters, the dialogue, the creativity and, lest we forget, the frequent updates all come together to form the rich tapestry of this great story hour. Thanks to Doc and all the players for giving us this.

Secondly, thank you Ziona for the pics from Christmas. I really enjoyed them. On the rare off-chance that I actually come by RI, I'd be honored if I could stop in to observe a game. All of you guys seem like a lot of fun.

And thirdly, all I can say about the new captain of the guard is... AWESOME. PURE AWESOMENISITY. I feel bad that I wasn't around to comment on my more lenghty appearance in the story, but I'm here now! And I'm doing a pretty good job, if I do say so myself.

Aw, Dartan would take Metus down flat.

Just give me some time.... time to rise to POWER! Bwahahahaha!

No, but seriously, I know my place. I may not be able to take on Dartan (probably couldn't take on Snooky) but I'll be sure to do a damned fine job as Captain. I appreciate Doug and Doc allowing me the small indulgence of appearing in the story. Here's hoping we see more of my new most favorite character Metus, and his own riveting personal journies! Woooo!

So with that, I say bring on more story!

I may not be able to take on Dartan

Thats because I just haven't rolled up the NPC, picked feats and given you your minimal number of magical items. Soon.. your NPC will be a powergamer.. lol.

I must say excellent work Doc. I came across your story hour when it was being pimped in another thread about a week ago and have been back everyday since.

Finally caught up! Great piece of writing from the battle with Acceiswall to the most recent.

I certainly hope Accessiwal doesn't wipe everyone out again. It certainly doesn't look good.

I hope Wee Jas and the others have come up with a good plan for killing him. If you don't mind Wee Jas, drop me a Meta-game description of the plan to kill the dragon? I would love to read what sneaky method you have come up with to kill such a foe. I love reading about tactics.

Plan? I have none. I don't wish to attack the dragon now. I don't think we are as strong as the old group and I don't want Big A coming back and destroying Verbobonc after I took the time to outfit and rebuild it.

If I was to attack the dragon though...

I'd cast anti-life shell on myself so it couldn't melee me. I'd attempt a spell battle with it. I have 4 Destructions memorized so I'd pray (get it? I'm a cleric) that one of those would sneak through. The only other spell that might be effective would be blindness. Maybe my mask of the Skull. I'd never close in for the Harm or Slay Living cause the dragon would whip through my hit points. If all that fails I'll word of Recall back to Spellforge to live to fight another day.

Doc no meta gaming!

Doc, I really dont have all that much to say this time except thanks for the quality and frequency of your posts...since I am the type of person who likes to read books in one sitting...I hate to wait on slow coming posts{ as you can probably tell from my hurry up darn it posts I always leave you} but you do update much more quickly than most , so Once again thanks.

I have been spending the past few days reading this story thread and I must say it is excellent. I can't wait for more to come, though going back and reading about the Knights of the Silver Quill will keep me busy for a while.

 

[Neverwinter Knight]

Wow, I come back from skiing and find your greatest update, yet! Keep working that magic Doc !!!

Richards, how about a song about: Beating the Dead Horse?

I hope to find out about the creature that good ol' Jamison was (or maybe still is) working for!

Re

Is there anyway you guys can dimensional lock the the dragon into place in its cave ? Maybe a Wall of Force after landing a Dimensional Anchor.

Then disintegrate a hole into the cave 10 feet wide or use monster summoning or planar ally to summon a burrowing creature who can make a small hole into the cave, then start dropping fireballs in on him hoping to bypass his SR?

Use the dragons size against him and seek a good cover spot. Slowly but surely you can kill him.

P.S. Does Doc allow Tome and Blood spells?
