Thanks for the birthday wishes, everyone! Big 5-0. To quote Spinal Tap, "too much f***ing perspective," haha.
Still on the lookout for a new 1E, LabLord, or S&W game. It'll come along soon enough.

Re: What would you like to play/run? (Interest Catch-all)
Now that you mentioned S&W, is this S&W? I bought it a few years ago and has been forgotten on the shelves. Anything that I have a physical copy of I want to play... Definitely S(words) & W(izardry) but it's the White Box edition (an OD&D retroclone), not the Complete edition, which...

Re: What would you like to play/run? (Interest Catch-all)
Considering running G1 Steading (and who knows? maybe G2-G3-and beyond?) with S&W Complete. Any takers?

Re: Entering the Pod-Caverns
Using a spear as a walking stick, Palgravadorix keeps a wary eye out for any suspicious looking tendrils. He still seems a bit shaken by his ordeal with the plant creature.

Re: OOC Thread
I'm still here and checking in every 1-2 days. Work has ramped up of late and I'm gearing up for a grueling 6 month online course but I'm pretty sure I can fit this game in. It's a welcome distraction.

Re: Entering the Pod-Caverns
Clearly shaken by being attacked by a plant, Palgravadorix slumps against the cavern wall. "I...I...am fine," he stammers, looking on ruefully as his companions launch attacks on the other plant. If he could train such a thing to protect his grove...he will poke at the bulb with his spear ...

Re: OOC Thread
Point of order: can Palgravadorix defend himself against a plant attack without violating druidic code?
I've known DMs to go either way on this one.

Re: Entering the Pod-Caverns
Plants beneath the earth! Palgravadorix may have heard tales of such things but he certainly hasn't seen any up til now.
Keeping a wide berth (10' min. ) of the strange subterranean flora, Palgravadorix wracks his brain to see if he can identify them.

Palgravadorix will descend to the cavern floor and wait for the rest of the party to join him.

Re: Entering the Pod-Caverns
As if to test his own observation — and seemingly oblivious to the ranger's well-intentioned advice — Palgravadorix lowers himself onto the curious fungal ladder. He doesn't descend beyond the range of the torchlight.

Keeping a firm hold on the rope to steady himself on the wet rocks, Palgravadorix inspects the fungal growth on the cavern walls.

Re: Entering the Pod-Caverns
Satisfied that's he's found a good solid stalagmite, Palgravadorix tightens his lasso around the base and tosses the loose end to Kelsey. He takes an interest in the channels flowing off into the darkness from behind the waterfall. "Where there is water," he intones, "there is life.&q...

The druid nods gravely at the halfling's request, then resumes looking for an anchor rock.

Re: Entering the Pod-Caverns
Palgravadorix watches cautiously as the front ranks move toward the edge of the waterfall. He removes the hemp rope from his backpack, ties a lasso, and looks about for a stalagmite or boulder that might serve as an anchor to help them negotiate the treacherous rocks.

"Thank you, little wings," the druid trills. "You are beloved of the Horned God and of his servant."
His conversation done, he relays what information they gave him to his comrades and assumes his position in the rearguard. He is ready to go under the earth.

The druid scans the trees and scrub around the brook for signs of fauna — birds, lizards, small mammals — with whom he might be able to speak about what comes and goes from the cave.
