Re: Barrowmaze: Repatriating the Red Lion of Aerik

Exploring beyond the Harpy Halls. okay so I am going ahead with Wrathbone's amended private message action which is to direct his rage and attack upon the daemon not the lantern skull. So the lantern light radiating from a skull has caused the rune-shapes cast by the shadows of the bauble stars to ...

Re: Barrowmaze: Crusaders and the Hand of Nergal

are you happy to go straight to that crypt via the 'metal door' room or do you wish to investigate any of the side mausoleums which line the corridor (74) as you go along?

Re: Blackened Forest: Bounty Hunting the Red Fang Renegades.

Just to give you a reminder of the general perception of the Bugbears, as spoken by ranger Hunnicot to Dalin: "The Bugbears are a primitive humanoid, living off the land as hunter-gatherers as much as thievery and banditry as you discovered on the route. A warrior takes his esteem from how many...

Re: New Year, New Faces, New Troubles

Ambergris So an energy rather than a creature. It makes me think of some kind of explosive or summoning power; a thunder-wave to herald in the tsunami, a portal even that might open a rift to some aquatic realm. (Hope not to give GM ideas). So to conclude my spell, I probably need to confirm my fea...

Siouxsie

Confers with her comrades. Her own opinion is to tell the Efreeti to do one and clear off if he wants.

But she waits for others to express views before answering.

Re: Barrowmaze: Crusaders and the Hand of Nergal

The present 'default' action is to go to the weird maze room where you used Moo-Moo to escape. So unless you want to deviate, I am planning the expedition to go that way next.

Re: Finding the right multi-genre game mechanics

It is coming up to the third year anniversary of my Barrowmaze campaign and usually I take that as a cue to look at various House Rules and systems I use that enhance (hopefully) the game flow and experience. One of those which fits in with the context of 'gaining experience and skills' is what I te...

Re: Barrow Moor: Raust and the Orphidian tribe.

I will come back with a more detailed update. But the 'Wug assassin' is not known in the confusion of the riverbank melee. You can roll the CLW score, needing 3+ to put Ananxyrus back into positive health.
