Re: OOC: out of character comments and questions).
Now that I'm just getting started (this is great by the way, wish I'd found out about PBP a long time ago) I'm leaving on vacation for the holidays. I'll be back around New Years but probably very infrequent or no posting until then. @Spearmint or @Bluetounge feel free to NPC Gunter Red Shirt as nee...

Re: Expedition planning and discussions
Golgarth & Guntar plan to scout Bogtown, primarily for news on the old Cromm Cruach cleric who formerly pastored in Helix. So a short trip, just to get exploring and hopefully not too much over our heads in danger or disaster ... .... Looking at the Map, Bogtown is about a week trip for a carav...

Re: Helix: The Brazen Strumpet
Well that’s quite a tale Golgarth. I’m no Palideen , but the story of the old stonefather doesn’t sit right with me either. I’d journey with ye to Bogtown if ya wish. I’d like a few more stout lads to man our shield wall first though. No offense to your holy arse meant but strength in numbers and s...

Re: Helix: The Brazen Strumpet
17th May 1066 Gunter rises early, careful not to disturb the other common room patrons and goes outside for an early shower.

Re: Helix: The Brazen Strumpet
Nursing his precious tankard of the fine local beer he approaches the table of northmen. “‘Ello gents, name’s Gunter. Just got into town today and looking for work.

Re: Helix: The Brazen Strumpet
“Sheets? In the commons? Right palace you’re running here mate. I can pitch me own straw if the pallet needs stuffin.” he says smiling. Gunter looks down forlornly at the beer, torn between a good pint and a thin purse. Sadly, he slides the beer back to Bollo. “Sorry mate but I only ordered yesterd...

Re: Helix village.
May 16, 1066 Late afternoon Gunter Red Shirt arrives in Helix and makes his way through town to the inn & tavern he’s spotted. The miles felt like leagues on the long walk from Iron Motte, especially in full campaign gear on a shite road. He’d traveled as a free-sword with a merchant caravan in ...

Re: Tomb Raiders. (Character introductions)
Gunter Red Shirt Gunter is a tall and skinny lad with green eyes, gaunt features and pale skin. He’s grown a patchy beard and mustache in a vain attempt to look older than his 18 years. When he left the farm at 15 to join a free company his father told him, “Gunter, ya best start wearin’ red so when...

Ok, I couldn’t help myself… The boys wake with their father standing over them, his grim face in twisting shadows. “Da..?” “Papa..?” They sit bolt upright and fling their blankets aside.

Re: D&D (1974) Limited recruiting
Quick questions for Paladin. Are we allowed to adjust our prime stats per Men and Magic before the game starts or are we done and start from “Bare feet hit the cold floor?” *. Also, do we need to roll for hp or are you tracking all that behind the veil? *I’ve read M&M a few times now and I’m sti...

Maybe, I haven’t come across another Hvalreki yet but could be more than one of us out there. I’m on another PBP site (not sure on the rules here yet about naming other platforms). Also on some gaming discord servers.
