Buck starts to get antsy, all this sittin' and book smarts doesn't work well with him. As soon as the others start suggesting moving on, he is up and ready to go.

Turning, you see the passage opposite the door is 40 feet long before turning north. Approaching you from the passage are three (3) skeletons. It is the one in front of the trio who walk has alerted you of their approach. One of it's legs ends in a wooden peg leg while the other foot is dragged maki...

Just to further inform the group. When Quinton approached the blood, as the first poster, the light source was still back at the entrance to this hallway. That meant the patch of blood was 30' from the torture chamber and 20' before the intersection. The hallway continues on another 10' by torchlig...

Having made a quick look of the torture chamber, you leave by the northern doorway, heading out into dark hall. Your torch light illuminates the path before you, the hall travelling to the end of your light. It shows a door on the right of the hall about 50 feet away. There is another hall across fr...

Buck tries to keep a calm composure.

I'm still here and I promise I will have a post up tomorrow. My step-son and my mother-in-law experienced emergency situations at the end of last week and the beginning of this week (unrelated issues.) Once that settled down I started experiencing internet issues (we're having bad weather here in MD...

Family first. We'll still be here.

Buck knows he is not near the top of the brightest people in the room so he puts his hands in his pockets and waits patiently.

Acting together, Quintin and Snorldrab are able to shoulder the door open on their first attempt. Bring the torches around to see into the room they spy dusty and decaying instruments of torture; betraying this room’s original purpose. A bench laden with clamps, knives and instruments of torture sta...

trawets, give me a STR check with Advantage since Snorldrab is assisting Quintin.

Buck Saylor remains standing where he was. Zebedee may have pushed their luck and Buck needed the money Boss Herzog was offering.

Sorry all, it's been a busy week.


What path do you all wish to take? There is the blocked door, the rough hewn passage, or the swollen door.

Also I think my HP might be wrong (I have 2 :D) - are we starting with max HP at level 1, or not really? RAW your HP is correct. Shadowdark does not start with max HP; but in the interest of PbP, I am going to run with max at 1st level. So everyone please change your character sheets to have max hp...

Ohmir, Human Priest of Saint Terragnis

Definitely sign me up for this.

Marching order (front to back): Quintin, Snorldrab (t), Nolthar, Oggdrab (t), Blaghrog. Agis is still upstairs as I haven't heard frm McThunder and he hasn't been online since Easter. Even with Snorldrab holding a torch behind him, Quintin is able to see the entirety of the room before them. Two sw...

Thanks for the update kwll. Sorry for the slowness, grokkngrognard has asked to join in the game so I have been trying to buy some time for his character to be slipped in.

Buck will sign the contract as well but he wants to an extra quick look at the gunslingers. Do they seem to always be this surly or does it appear they are trying to hide something?
