Wizardru's Story Hour (updated 11/21)

[dravot]

Five hours in the emergency room hopped up on painkillers doesn't do much for one's critical thinking skills, even 24 hours later.

1) At the moment, it was all I had that would do serious damage to the oozes.
2) I healed Scorch the next round.
3) Whine, whine, whine.

Aethramyr let out a low whistle, then said “Right. Everyone out. We’re going back to Nightfang Spire.”

Hahahahaha! Was that actually said? And Dravot? Spent time at the ER? For kidney stones?! And then went right back to game!?! That's commitment.

Said ER visit was Thursday. Game was Friday. I didn't realize how fuzzy my head was until it was too late.

I was pretty good early in the day, but as time wore on, critical thinking skills began to elude me, to Scorch's detriment.

 

[Scorch]

Heh... I did try to cast a fireball while blind at one set of oozes (they were splitting up as we hacked at them) and totally missed and instead got another set further down the pit so it all worked out I guess...

Scorch

 

[Aethramyr]

Oh, yeah, worked out well...

The Night wasn't the most stellar example of Paladinhood...

1. Wisdom drain. The first one wasn't so bad, since I still could cast restoration. The 2nd one took care of that, however. Dravot had to get involved.

2. Fighting the Cubes. wich consisted of:
a. Getting bludgeoned and Caught as soon as I poked my head above the wall.
b. Fighting my way out of said cube, to have a Wile E. Coyote realization that the cube was the only thing holding me to / on the wall Resulting in
c. 40 ft drop. Nothing major. still embaressing. Of course, the 2 new cubes created couldn't hold the wall for the moment either, so they were down in the pit with me. Leading to...
d. Now let's see...what was that message before this one? Something about:

(Scorch) Heh... I did try to cast a fireball while blind at one set of oozes (they were splitting up as we hacked at them) and totally missed and instead got another set further down the pit so it all worked out I guess...

Can you guess wich Set he was referring too?

Thankfully, Kayleigh left this bit out of the official record. History gets written by the winners and all that.

Aethramyr.

Aethramyr.

You left out the part about failing your save vs. stunning fist!

 

[Aethramyr]

Well, that was also one of the wisdom drains, so that part never actually made it to Aethramyrs long-term memory...but sure,

1b Failed the save against the alip's stunning fist attack.

 

[WizarDru]

Since I am apparently unable to actually kill Aethramyr, I'll just humiliate him, apparently.

 

[Aethramyr]

Actually, I can, well, live with that...

 

[Greybar]

I like the fact that you've worked the Tomb into your game world. It's a pretty high-level thing to begin with (what 15-18th recommended or something?) but what it takes to boost it up another 7-10 levels will be fun to look for.

For instance: Stunning Fist? So those alips had monk levels or something?

(edit: okay, some of that is more appropriate to a Rogue's Gallery thread.
I found the thread with the SSoM PCs, but I'm still looking for the beastie thread.
I *know* I remember there being one...)
