Wizardru's Story Hour (updated 11/21)

[WizarDru]

What about those 3-in-1 undead the church of Wee Jas gave you a while back? Granted, I think most of them died anyway, but from the bad guys. Besides, don't you have some semi-friendly undead in your family tree?

Well, I don't recall how much of this has bled through to the story hour: in the case of his undead relatives, they have two statuses: Will-Be-Killed or Will-Be-Saved. Chavram: WBK. Father and Brother: WBS, or WBK if that proves impossible. There is ample evidence that Dravot can restore his brother and father to humanity....Chavram? Well, he's...complicated.

As for the servants of Wee Jas: the first time they encountered the first tatterdamelion, Dravot blasted him, and prepared to destroy him if he even THOUGHT of being evil. A range limitation and curiousity are the only things that allowed him to "live" long enough to explain himself. As for the rest, they were an expedient ally that Dravot expected to have their numbers reduced without any cost to his town...and for the time being, they've behaved themselves. The Living Saint's wrath is a terrible thing, and any intelligent undead on the prime fear his name, unless they've been locked in a tomb.

Were we able to retrieve the cloak? I forget. If so I could use it.

I'm going to regret asking this, but why would someone who can turn into something that can fly, let alone turn into an arachnid, need the cloak of arachnida?


Edit: Know what? I take it back. Don't want to know the logic. [closes the bolonomicon...]

Now THERE'S your level of alienist!
Actually I was going to give it to Windsaber. "Ninja Lion death strike from above!"

Hmm...an interesting question...Does having met Bolo solve one of the requirement for becoming an alienist.

Interesting. Do you have the Book of Exalted Deeds and/or use the Deathless? I was just wondering if you exercised that option and how it would effect this aspect of the campaign.

"Do you want to take levels in alienist?"
"No, why?"
"Because asking that question is a good way to start that path."
"Asking if meeting Bolo would solve the requirement for becoming an alienist is solving the requirement for becoming an alienist?"
"Makes sense to me!"

Just offering you guys a bump. Has the game been postponed lately or is Zad just busy? If the latter, I wouldn't mind some brief info on how things have gone since then. On that note, how far into the module are you, assuming you played since the last update?

 

[Argent Silvermage]

I thought you all knew. Wizardru and Valenthe have been on vacation. They came back Sunday. Hopefuly we'll game soon.

 

[Zad]

We did a playtest of parts of a module this past weekend, so no action today I'm afraid.

It was rather amusing - we'd play half- to three-quarters through an encounter, then go "ok good enough" and move on.

Due to the holiday, impending vacations and a really bad illness, we played Barakus this weekend. The Endhome Six encountered their first Hill Giant. Super hella-fun. And we learned there's such a thing as being TOO good at bluffing.
