I've calmed down since the session ended an hour ago (From thinking, They CANT BE SERIOUS after I just got all these books and counters and dice!). They attacked Broken Spire Keep. They were kicking ass royally against rogue and warrior guards until eight zombies and a cleric showed up. Whoomph. Psionic warrior held and beaten to a pulp. Zap. Bard (with the wand of cure light wounds with 30 charges). The Dwarven Martial Artist fought, and fought, and fought, and fought. Actually got most of the zombies. But the cleric, whenever he wasn't casting spells he hit with an amazing attack bonus and damage. And that got the Psy Warrior in. And, eventually, the Martial Artist. The zombies were simply spaces to block people from approaching the cleric.I should mention that I think one of the players was frustrated. Yesterday night we had a very good conversation about introducing roleplaying in his character regarding religion. How he saw more along the axis of lawful/chaotic instead of good/evil, and how it would be odder then not for him not to worship any diety, even one such as war or strength. He even was the first one to fill out the 55 question questionaire sheet on the same night. I thanked him for that very much.But then he, and everyone else, gets killed. The problem arised when asking for rerolled characters, he said 'No thanks.' He said he had five other games he was playing in, and even mentioned playing in another PC's game (who wasn't there at the time; only 3 out of 5 were present). FYI, my game was the first out of those five lasting until today for about three months of weekly gaming. And with his polite refusal, the other two politely decided to hold off making a new one until the rest of the group decided. The other two nonpresent players were in the process of making a new character anyway (unhappy with current character concept) so at the moment it's not as if they still have anything vested into the current game.I fear the game will end for an indefinte amount of time until a free slot opens up for me who knows how long from now. But there's nothing I can do about it, really. The player who refused first was the first to join up and I feel like I disillusioned him or something. And he was a very, very good player too, bringing another good player with him in the game.My D&D collections just looks very ... large and obtuse now. Like it just lost it's entire purpose without a group. I'll still type up some notes in a player friendly almanac intended for those who may join and reroll again, but I'm sure eventually I'll just subside from it for a while unless something happens.</blockquote>
