Any news on a brave GM deciding to run a few musket & cannon based skirmishes. I think it really needs a 'War of Independence' buff to be able to set scenes correctly if you wanted a longer campaign. I could possible do an earlier transition, 1745 and the Jacobite rebellion up in my native Scotl...

Crabgrass "Guys, what are we trying to focus on? We came to hunt toll-bandits. Now I don't know which of these trophy heads that disappeared into the niche hole and behind the flap is an orc, a kobold or a human. Fairly certain it wasn't a troll-head. However, if our esteemed leader Dubious ha...

I guess I better re-read the PH, as Sleep gets no save. that is true, it affects a range of HD groups. Crabgrass , if pulled out from the niche, body and his outstretched arm reaching into the hole and flap, that might count as waking him up. So I guess that would be my next action. "... did w...

Blaze Horner Checks out the boulder area and tries to do a good job of covering any tracks. By ranger tradition, he leaves behind a few supplies for the next niche user, hoping it stays as a secret hideaway within the rangerly community. (Minus some rations and fletched arrows). As far as the conti...

Crabgrass: Saving Throw vs Spells 12+ [1d20]=20

If he is let go of, then he will stand and move to the cave entrance. If still caught and held, he will ready a Cure Spell to counter any injury he might suffer.

Blaze Horner Blaze Horner: random search [1d8]=4 Cutting a staff and tapping ahead, he hopes to locate any hidden traps. We shouldn't make too much of a trampled trail to the crevice otherwise it might alert any scouting Bugbears, Hobgoblins or creatures that we are nearby. Once at the boulder, I w...

"Someone has grabbed hold of me! Sleep them!" he advises Dubricus

Caught himself, he resorts to his Shocking Grasp but cannot seem to summon much arcing power in his casting, to zap those who restrain him.

Crabgrass: casts Shocking Grasp [1d8+1]=2+1=3

Xerxes Will.stand in front of a cell, Xerxes: random cell [1d4]=3 Charisma 11 vs [1d20]=4 Holding his holy symbol before him and call the prisoner to 'repentance and faith' in Ulesh alone. "Everything for a reason. You are here reserved for justice but in this realm it is only by Ulesh's grace...

I do like that the campaign accounts for random character actions and attitudes which have profound implications in a character's later adventures; Dalin catching Mummy Rot which meant he looked diseased and was welcomed into the leprous Bugbear hovel, Sven shaking hands with an undead pirate and ge...

Crabgrass Just a flap, not a tunnel. Okay if room enough only for a head to poke out then, a head can poke in. Firstly I will cast my Sanctuary spell upon myself to give a basic protection. Then using a niche head as a grisly prosthetic hand puppet, put it through the flap. Speaking in orcish, &quo...

Blaze Horner Blaze Horner: Wisdom check vs 15 [4d6]=13 Well, moving on from the bloody dell is goid. It confirms the Bugbear renegades are active and that they have an antipathy towards others. I think (certainly from reading past threads) that the Bugbears had converted to Set worship and when fir...

Xerxes "They are damned souls, restrained for judgement day. Greedy ghouls not doubt." He has thoughts of doom and gloom regarding prisoners wondering how any living would remain so hale in this strange environment. Zygmund , maybe the bar has some physical traits. A conductor of electrif...

Crabgrass Quite adept with a sling at the coconut shy, he could have tried a few heads as target practise. One head is not there. I presume it didn't just grow legs and walk away. So I am thinking more 'whack-a-mole' hole in the ground? They retreated by wriggling back into a tunnel. I need to inve...

Must be summer season with all the new players joining!

Welcome kruk

"Trophy heads. As I shared earlier. Knowing Kobolds though, I wouldn't be surprised that some are trapped or even some are paper maiche."

I will go, against my better judgement perhaps, but investigate the heads, poking at them with my staff.

Trust it goes well Eric and you are back on your feet soon. Cosmo has been a character from the very game beginning, so involved in many key adventures.

Xerxes Takes stock of his gear. He holds his holy symbol up at the baleful light, "Only the foolish go where angels fear to tread. Tis a portal to the realm of that devilish icon Wenceslas hacked" Zygmund checks the wall indentation and the other two keys that were hanging upon the hooks....

Crabgrass Muses on the day's event. We are a long way from stalking the bandits who wait by the fallen log to waylay adventurers. Now on the fringe of the Chaos Caves, he smiled at the irony. Picking up on Meinhardt's suggestion, "Well I know a troll lives by the goblins that side. Make sure w...

Crabgrass Just waiting hours in hope a bandit that we can ambush comes by seems a random chance that could be as waste. Bandits are bandits aren't they, whether one group or two. If we can smash a smugglers ring, that might also get a bounty from the Keep. He muses his thoughts, guessing that our d...

Sure, let's check that other place out.
