DM-Camris' REIGN of WINTER Part 2: The Shackled Hut (Inactive)

Game Master Camris

SECTION TWO: Strolling through the Howlings
The winter portal has closed, but the heroes now find themselves trapped in the frozen land of Irrisen with an urgent quest—to find Baba Yaga! In order to track down the missing Queen of Witches, the heroes must brave the monster-infested capital city of Whitethrone, where Baba Yaga’s Dancing Hut has been captured and put on display. Will possession of the miraculous artifact lead them to the Witch Queen, or will they die a cold death at the hands of Irrisen’s White Witches?

Dot.


Semi-closed eh?

yah, semi closed.
mostly recruiting from an email thread in the netherlands from people i know. but seats that don't fill up from them are welcome to be filled by others.

expectation is about 1 or 2 posts a day. slow roll long campaign ( probably be about 8 months to a year before we finish book 1 of reign of winter. )

got our table it seems. closing recruitment.


Happy gaming!


Putting Gondork's stats up there now.


Semi closed? Oh well, perhaps it's for the best. I'm DMing this one in RL (my party is at book 4 now), so at the very least I shouldn't have been playing a rogue or other trapfinder.

yah, maybe not so closed after all.
may have two spots opening up, will hopefully finalize it by this weekend.


opening up for one more. an arcane or range of some sort may be useful.


I have a ranged Zen Archer monk who worships Erastil that I'd like to try out. PM me with the details and I'll have him sorted out tonight.


house rules for char creation , have a look and see if things jive. Contacting Moon Papa and Bificommander to see if they're still free/interested first, and posting a little filler material on the gameplay area.


Seems convoluted and penalizes unnecessarily. I'll go ahead and retract my interest, thanks for sharing.


baw. i've run another off. ah well

A/B testing continues. =D

So glad no zen archer o_o


i'm fine w/ it on a 18 or 15 point build... lol


Is there a 'theme' already in place with the current players?


Not really. I'm a Cleric of Sivanah and there's an Inquisitor of Abadar, that's pretty much it. We couldn't really reach a consensus (though Gondork might be affiliated with Sivanah for flavour).


What do you think of a half-elven Ranger (archer path)(APG Skirmisher)/Fighter (APG Weapon Master). Core plus APG, so 18 point build.


fine by me. my note is that the party will be lacking a bit of arcane power/ knowledge. its a little covered by the occultist. but i think we've two characters with a 5 intelligence? so we're down skills. a ranger with at least some esoteric arcane knowledge might be useful. a ranger will be useful anyway =)

if we retcon a theme or anything i'm fine writing it in to the story, its just a little literary masturbation so far because the party isn't cemented yet. ( in the gameplay thread )


@Camris: as long as you don't get mind controlled I'm perfectly fine with that! (Seeing as we need a bit of Survival etc as well)


OK, here is her crunch. Fluff to follow.
Tell me what you think...

the gristle looks good. will message you some more. seems a good fit, so that should round us out to four/possibly five, will see by this weekend or so, and can kinda close our recruitment again. yay.


Appearance:
Arwyn Fynolt is a beautiful elven girl. She is slight; barely 5’6”, and slender as all elves are. Snow white skin, Ice blue hair and eyes, long upright ears that look sharp enough to cut flesh.
She dresses in the usual motley of brown and green that is almost the uniform of the Rangers. Over one shoulder, taller than she is, is a longbow.


Arwyn is the daughter of Tassaraea Willowbark, a snowcaster elven alchemist who was exiled from her clan for having a child with an Ulfen hunter.
Arwen's father was killed by a group of trolls while she was a babe, after Tassaraea was exiled from the snowcasters.
Devastated by her husband's death, Tessarea fled south from both their clans disapproval, she and Arwen ended up here in Heldren 25 years ago and took a human sounding surname.
Since then, she has stocked a potion of resist energy (cold), and a surprisingly large stockpile of alchemist fire - since the death, people know she's had an irrational fear of trolls, and she's got moments where she obsessively crafts the stuff for the (in her mind) inevitable moment when she must face them again.

Growing up, it was hard for Arwen to make friends with her exotic coloration. She took refuge wandering out in the deep forests, where a solitary experience offered solace. She learned the Longbow and the ways of the forest, and it was no surprise when she took up the profession of Hunter, Scout and Guide; the same as her father.

From her Mother, she learned of magic that resided in things. She heard many stories of magic artifacts, their makers, how they were made, and lost and quested for. She gained a curiosity about the magical realm that would increasingly guide her.
As she came into her adulthood, she became increasingly restless. Her parents would tell her little of the snow covered lands where they came from; and her imagination filled in the gaps with impossible beauty, rugged icescapes and warriors of surpassing valor. She wondered if she dared to go visit such a land. Her parents had came from there hadn’t they?


have an opening, controlling Ten-Penny Tacey, a half-orc rogue 3 at the moment, if anyone is interested.


Sounds like fun, if you'll have me :)


should have a yes/no by end of this week, giving a friend of one of the current players first dibbs. this week's a slow week for the game.

Carla the Profane has contacted and conscripted me for this game (Which means I said "sure, let's do this". He said I should let you know through the thread and stuff.


Alright...happy gaming :)
