Why is the Gift Certificate's checkout wanting to charge Sales Tax? If you pay sales tax when buying the gift and on when the person receiving the gift uses it - you pay sales tax twice. It also means Paizo may be double paying B&O taxes on gift certificates! Edit - referring to Washington State Sales tax.
I wasn't able to attend due to lack of childcare - but I have to send a huge THANK YOU! The Master of Coin signed my Core book for me! I sent it with a friend who was able to go and he tracked Chris down for me. I wasn't sure where else to post this - but definitely grateful!
Don't do it! I made the mistake of saying I was too busy for gaming with school/baby and let my ex-husband take all the D&D, Pathfinder... even the gaming consoles when he moved out and I SERIOUSLY regret it. PDF's just aren't the same! When I finally released my mistake I had an old 3.5 D&D PHB and a small handful of dice!
If I can do it, you can to! Appreciate that! and/or employment in industry or government Awesome! Public accounting is slim pickings in such a small villa as I reside in currently. I will follow up on that if I am not fortunate enough to gain the legendary role of "Master of Coin's Minion".
In Washington state you also have to have a "5th year" of college credits and work (or have a CPA sign off on) 2000 hours under a certified CPA.
This list is pretty close too - I'm guessing Arnwyn must study accounting. In general it is recommended that you only work part time and have NO LIFE for at least a year if you even hope to pass the CPA and that is assuming you have enrolled in an online review course that runs around a grand if you get it on sale. I wish just finishing your BA made your qualified to sit for the CPA exam and do well! It is also non-sense that the accounting profession goes out of it's way to make people that go private seem like "lesser" accountants and that colleges don't have more accounting elective classes aimed at skills that are useful in private accounting instead of leaving graduates cold. My classmates never learned how to do payroll and those that didn't take the optional tax course didn't know how to do business tax returns!
As an accounting student there is a lot of push to work in "public" accounting and for accounting firm and not "private" - which is individual firms. I personally made said comment because I sent in my application with a note addressing the fact that I didn't think it was possible to relocate, but wanted to apply because I have been watching for an opening at a company I would enjoy for many years - but had been told by my realtor there was no way I could sell my house until the sewer line was put in (May 2014 ETA!) So I felt it was a "failed will save" because there was no way when I sent my application that I could move to the Redmond area. As soon as I emailed in my resume I called family, told them my crazy idea and someone I know in Bothell's neighbor moved out days ago of their affordable home, another family member wants to move into my house and rent it from me and a friend in Bothell wants her old job back as my nanny and offered her home to me until I could get moved into said apartment if I was offered the job. Then I got a call from my neighbors saying the sewer contractor was able to bump our sewer line to July 2013 last night!
I failed my will save too! I couldn't not - did my college statistics project on creating a method to figure out if someone has a weighted dice and all my accounting classmates mocked me! Plus one of my favorite DMs lives in Bothell.
I got it. My husband told me he was stuck for ideas, showed me the two clues and I told him to try a theroy and it worked. Total time: 5 mintues.
He was one cool guy. I don't even like TV in general, but when I did watch I always liked his show. It's a hard shock, hopefully his family will be ok. *sighes*
One of our charaters has the bathtub and actually uses it. She turned quite a few heads when she was bathing in the hallway of a major temple of Palor. It was amusing.
Lilith- you are right, no matter what book was printed for D&D someone would buy it. There is someone that would buy it just for the sake of saying they have the entire D&D collection. Celestial Healer- I would so buy the Complete Accountant! Maybe then Paizo would hire me! Plus it would be a kick to have it out on my desk at work. Ajs- My hubby would so buy the Three Dragon Ante book! He's been having a kick using the table out of a recentish Dragon to generate random charaters. He's asked for a set of Three Dragon Ante cards for Christmas if I can find them. Seriously, I'd draw the line at Spider Compendeum. Ick.
Welcome to the club of the married ones! (less then two months ago myself) Lilith's piece of advice is one of the most important here. It is the day for you two. Don't let family try to change what you want. Here's a quote from our bestman I thought you would appericate. May for better or worse be far better then worse.
Ouch. I'm crushed. I'll keep trying anyway... the idea of a possible employee discount is appealing.
<start shameless plug> Pick me! Pick me! I'm good at payroll! Promise! I put in my 2 years to get my ranks in profession: accountant
*stops bouncing up and down and bows politely* </end shameless plug>
I had literally four things come to mind. The first being that if I somehow got brought into the D&D world, I don't think I'd get to choose anything other then, "Run" or "Be eatten". Second, I think becoming Celiwyn would be cool... but update her, I don't want to be a 3.0 elven ranger. I'd have to become 3.5. Third, sappy I know, I'd want to become the heroine from Thanis' story so we could stick together (assuming we both go and he chooses his charater from that story...) Forth... and coolest option. I would so become Amerasu! Half-fey(Gloria) Bard Cleric. Pretty, can fly and knows how to have fun. Not to mention can sing.
Well what else can we put in each other's stockings? And don't forget minitures and candy. It's a yearly tradition.
I had to ban D&D books from being brought out while watching Lord of the Rings for the sake of keeping the guys from flipping to look up all the feats and spells etc... My wife is making me write this. One time she was trying to wake me up and i told her your going to have to roll a d20 for that and rolled back over. this had to be in my sleep cause i have no memory of it and she swears its true, it cracks heer up every time she remembers it :] I've actually lost a date to a D20, the guy said I had to get a ten or above and I rolled an 8. I figure at this point I must of rolled a nat 20 to get a guy like Thanis. *smiles* I'm glad I rolled low, I don't think I would of wanted to date him anyway.
Thanis and I actually had about $200 set aside in gold and silver dollars for our honeymoon so we could do just that. But it got to be too heavy... sad. Needless to say we got some interesting looks when we paid some bills in gold.
You stole my idea! Actually it would cost too much to put one in each favor... but my fiance and I have discussed buying a set of actual stone dice, or maybe even silver plated dice for our best man. Eh. Thanis plays more then me. So I'm not that bad. However, you know you've play too much D&D when if you don't know an answer on a multiple choice test you pull out your dice bag and pull out your lucky d4. You know it's even worse when after the test your teacher asks for a set and where you got them from.
I love creating a charater and building a good backstory for them and just playing them as they come. However I have noticed stat wise that a charater that is carefully planned from lv 1 ends up a lot more powerful then a charater that is build "as they go along." Many players I have met do what you have said, plan their charaters out. I know people that when asked to make a first level charater plan their level progression until level 20. I am not very good with making charaters, so I tend to just go with the flow. It's very common for me to tell the DM or ask Thanis questions like, "I want her to learn to further her ice magic and learn to make snowflake shrikens" or something like that and the DM will help me make a spell or will suggest what I should do for my next level. Often people I play with will allow me to do things with action points (if we are playing with them) and skill checks to where I can actually have my charaters pratice what I want them to learn and eventually when I level I get that skill/spell/feat etc... a great example is taking the "bad stuff" for doings things like firing an arrow into melee, firing too far, trying to load too quick etc the level before I take the assiocaited bow feat. Do to my choice in making my charaters as I went along, a few of my charaters, which started as the same level as everyone elses and is still the same level range, tends to be alot less powerful. I find that I have more fun and enjoy my drawings, so I think I really score in the long run. For the record... ice shirkens sound awesome... Someone should make that spell.
Here's what I did. I used a simple Learn to Type style game like some of the programs mentioned above to learn where the keys were to pratice for a keyboarding class I was in (if you didn't have your WPM up by a certain amount by the end of the class you got a poor grade). However I got bored with that. So what I did is I spent some time in fast paced chat rooms and placed my montior in a way to where looking at the keyboard was difficult (I put the montior to the side so to look at the screen I wasn't looking at the keyboard) and tried to keep up. You learn quickly that way. When those chats became too easy to keep up with I spent a few months doing what is called Speed RP or /a style RP's where in charater "fights" the person that could type the fastest and with the most detail about what their charater was doing would win. They are uncommon now, but are still around. I also recommend typing e-mails to friends and family and force yourself to use proper typing "style". Hope that helps. And for the records, even speed typers slow down a bit when it comes to numbers and symbols, so don't let that frustrate you. Luck to you,
*applauds* Nice post Keith! I like the idea of seeing a little of everything in the magizines, so that no matter what campiagn or who's DMing we can have something new to throw into the lot. Eberron to me is awesome because for me it gives me a chance to play on equal footing. I didn't grow up with D&D like my friends did, and I haven't had all the monsters in the core books memerized since the age of 13. Eberron came out shortly after I started seriously playing. Because it was new, fresh and different I wasn't left out of the "loop". The sad thing about the super-sized issue is I won't get to even see it most likely. Thanis has been beating me to the mailbox and hoarding them.
At the moment I have a whole whopping 3. Might have something to do with the fact my other half moved out before me about a month ago (transit/apartment issues, I'm joining him in July) and couldn't part even temporarily with anything. I insisted on keeping my copies of the core. For the record, Thanis doesn't have internet at the new house yet, he comes up here a few times a week and uses my computer. Just to let people know what's up. My guess is without magizines we have at least 40 books. I know we keep up on every Eberron book.
Ah, dice in the pockets... actually in the backpack/school bag. I had a teacher that would roll a dice to see if she collected homework and would borrow my dice so she could do things like.... roll percentals and collect on primes. I also find teachers get a kick out of me pulling out a d4 and d6 for multiple choice tests and rolling it on my desk while taking a test. They bring good luck... I swear, try it on your next exam. Simply having them, even if I don't use them seems to help me remember the answers. I used to carry a d20 in my pocket until I lost a date with a gamer because he liked to gamble and said I had to roll a ten or higher. Foxxara, if you ever see this thread... THAT WAS LAME... *laughs*
Simple- the name of my first charater. It's stuck around for years, normally isn't taken on any website I go to and is easily remembered. The catch was for awhile some people at my highschool who only knew me from online or in game actually started calling me Celi in the halls. My name for the records is actually Karen.
2001- I don't remember how I got it, but I had a little purple d20 and my fiance (then just boyfriend) was using a name generator to make a first name for my pretty elf girl. He was so exicted... I was very very confused. He handed me a piece of paper with numbers, my response a few days later was a drawing of the girl with the remarks, "This is my charater." as at the time I couldn't take the stats and get an image of anything. I also remember my parents telling me I couldn't play because it was a cult and I'd get sucked in. Now the boy that "drug" me into the cult my parents are insisting is the greatest person ever... can't they make up their minds?
Thauglorimorulus the Black.Ahhh...The Purple Dragon... Bubbles... Bubbles the Purple Psydo Dragon... *sighes* The interesting stuff a bored 14 year old comes up with. D8... seriously, spell it that way too. Our cat is named 6e after the cat 6e ethernet cable. The vet just laughed... using numbers in names turns heads and is easily remembered.
Okay, one thing to note first is that it is Effective Character Level, rather than Elected Class Level. That means that, including how many racial hit dice and class levels you possess, you are 'effectively' this level. ECL is equal to a creature's Hit Dice (including those gained from class levels) plus a level adjustment (LA). What Tequila Sunrise has provided is that level adjustment. Dryads have no ECL, because under standard circumstances, they can't leave the proximity of their tree. Thus, they make substandard adventurers. Also, natural lycanthropes (those who are born as were-whatevers) have the +3 LA as noted. Those who have been afflicted, which is to say they became werewhatevers by being bitten by natural werewhatevers, lack the improved damage reduction of the naturals as well as the ability to inflict lycanthropy. Thus, they only have a +2 level adjustment.
...blurted out "Macho Man"... *snort, giggle... then falls out of chair**
Sorry to all those who hate "dead" threads being brought back. Thanis, you promised you'd post your name sake in here if I started the thread. Thanks everyone who did post, these charaters are fun! Some people say your first charater says alot about how you look at yourself, but wiether or not that is true, it's still fun to think about that first charater sheet and struggling with how to and what to give them.
Actually I can see us going for the idea of paying slightly more for shipping varients too. Currently because of the way our gets ship they always get bent in our PO Box, so specail shipping or one day service means we could pick it up faster and from the counter, before the mail man bends it up. Plus the bragging rights, as it is we get it a day sooner then our friends on average because we have a PO box.
The AARP doesn't just help old people you know, we do taxes for elderly first if there is a line, but we'll do just about anyone's taxes... or at least that is one of the things I know the AARP does because that's the name of the group that helped train me for my volenteer taxes I'm doing. However, you know the person is old when they come in with a stack of papers from a bank and a 1099-SS, I *hate* trying to figure out how much Grandma paid for her stocks when she bought them in 1960 so that she is only taxed on the profits. Ah, I'll most likely get kicked out of the nursing home after the nurse catches me using paint thinner to work on my mini's... they'll say it's bad for me and kills brain cells or something. Plus I'd have to wear even bigger glasses to maginify my work... that would be a pain in the arse.
Almost everyone has a charater that they think of when they think of their favorite charater or their first. In many cases e-mail address or screen names are based off of a beloved charater or a nickname developed from a game. Or prehaps you have a fun moment in D&D with a charater that your friends will never forget... if you would, share your story and tell us a bit about this/these charaters. My story is simple enough. At the age of 16ish I had asked my mom if I could play and she said no because she thougth it was a cult. Being rebellous and working a night job as a babysitter I would call my fiance (then boyfriend) after the children went to sleep and play with him over the phone. His random elf name generator came up with the name Celiwyn. I think three years later we came up with her last name. Celiwyn is a elf-ranger with an overwhelming and just crazy fear of frogs. I played her as having the mental age of about a 14 year old girl, who had just gone out on her own for the first time. She had long braided hair down to her lower back and brown eyes, her dress was green and frayed at the ends a bit from traveling and she carried a sheild with a large leafy tree on the front of it. At her waist she carried both a long and short sword. Her first night in an inn by herself, while sitting in her room, frogs began to rain on her head. Myself, not completely understanding that elves don't sleep, roleplayed a cranky tired girl who was freaked out. This contiuned for hours on end until she snapped, pull out her sword and started to kill the frogs. In the end it turned out the patron in the next room was a wizard whose familiar had knocked over a bag of tricks. There's much more, I think I have a 24 page story floating around on my harddrive about her first few days travel. She was my first ever D&D charater and among my friends got me the nick name of Celi or Lady Alondra. A few people with a sense of humor called me Celery, but it was all in good fun. Even more oddly, since we didn't have a system for awarding XP for roleplaying at the time and Celiwyn never actually fought anything that was real or a challange, 5 years later she is *still* a first level ranger. A 3.0 ranger at that.
You know, I can understand anyone's frustration with not finding anything they wait for once a month when it's not what they want. Some people don't get alot of mail and the magizine in the mail box is the highlight of the week. So when they don't find what they were hoping for, it can suck. I also can understand the book cost issue. Thanis spoils me, but affording a second set of the core manuals while still being able to get food for game... wasn't going to happen. I saved up and got lucky. Someone (Why... I don't know) sold all kinds of 3.0 and 3.5 books to a local used book store, practically new with no signs of wear. If it wasn't for that one strange person I would not have my own copies and our group would still being waiting in line to "pass the book" come level up time. (how many people can say they got the entire core set like new for the cost of just the PHB?)
You lie. You told me your two favorite foods where pasta and strawberries. *grumbles something about not getting any more strawberries* Thank you guys for your hard work.
enjoyed glass floors
It used to be like 8 hours... like normal, but this quarter it will average around 6-7. Hopefully that number will go back to 8 after the Tax session is over. I had people waiting to get their taxes from 5:25 (we open at 6) until 8, and that was with two people working as fast as they could. It was crazy, because the last person had sat there for around an hour and a half just waiting for his turn. Thanis on the other hand finds five hours just fine and often since I get up early now I will find that he had just started to go to sleep when my alarm to get up goes off.
"Hey kids if you had fun catching pokemon, just wait till you see the monsters you can catch with D&D." Oh dear sweet Palor... no thank you. I already have my younger cousins trying to get me to DM them and bring my gameboy for pokemon battles... That actually sounds like a fun concept. It would be similar in game effect as a summon monster spell, I could see it as being a great way for spellcasters to help keep their familiars safe as well. However I see no reason why someone who is ok with having slaves couldn't catch humaniods? I would take a sort of personal pleasure from the idea of Pikachu throwing Ash into battle and letting Ash get beat up to an inch of his life by creatures 10 times his size for once.
Something I tried to do once and got flustered with was something similar in idea. I went through the mags and tried to list out all the new spells and feats and put them on index cards for easier referencing so that I didn't have to thumb through the mags as often, as some of the older ones are starting to look somewhat like well loved core books. Putting the adventure level on the spine would be a nice touch as alot of people (including Thanis and I) store their mags upright on bookshelves so we can read the spines. I'm grateful that they started putting the dates on the spine by the issue number because that helped me figure out where the special annuals and any notes that are not numbered fit in. Now if only they would invent a Howard's Handy Bookshelf...
My apoligies, I only had to work with what was posted in the first post and partially due to my training and experience I assume the worst. State law varies from place to place and I was trained that by law if I saw child abuse, which they defined as pretty much any kind of bad thing happening to anyone under 18 *I* go could to jail for not reporting it. Seriously, I had an old boyfriend be nasty to me and the school cop came up to me and told me (because I was 17 and a child-care provider and he knew it) that I could go to jail if I didn't report what he did to me. Laws are weird but are out there to protect people. But it sounds like you didn't hurt your friend at all. I'm glad you told your side of the story. I personally given a choice wouldn't let one of my DM's touch my MM (2nd ed) because then he'd never stop trying to update them all to 3.5 and I'd never get him to go outside again. *smiles* Please accept my apoligies and please keep in mind, while my post painted you in a bad light, it was also a reminder to everyone that no one has the right to cause anyone bodily harm. Hope you guys can all work things out.
Asking for comissions already Thanis? All you had to do was ask and maybe find an example of the weapons... geez. Oh well... Lilith completely wins in the drawing domain... *sighes* I DA watched you Lilith, I'm Celiwyn on DA as well, I just don't post alot of my work because my scanner hates me with a passion. I understand the remark about the significant other "lurking" instead of posting. Forever I just had Thanis relay the interesting things to me instead of posting myself because I thought you had to subscribe to the magizine to join the forums and both our mags where in his name. Thanis wants me to upload my Shadow Dancer and to create a charater for my fire mephit drawing now.
Hmm... perfect birthday material for a certain person I know... or two people I know. There would be good chances of really needing more then one book to cover all the things that should be in it, where would a person start to cut out to make it all fit? *grins*
While Thanis may deny this, more often this not the DM's I have had will fudge in your favor. If the monster rolled low on his attack and we are having a hard time with the encounter the monster will "fumble" and drop his weapon, giving us a chance. And sometimes when we roll well our attack might of sliced an arm off our enemy, effectly lowering it's number of attacks. But if we are completely stomping monsters, sometimes the HP will get bumped up a bit some the fight lasts a few rounds. I know, I helped build an NPC once that we wanted to make sure (we had a semi-high powered group at the time) would at least live for 3-4 rounds. I get pinned personally with the label of not having a big enough ego with some of my charaters. Sometimes Thanis will remind me that my charater is almost epic and I can take a few risks. One DM I had was very kind, and gave our charaters chances at being resurrected. However we also had to do the work to make sure the diamonds where avaible, and since we played savage charaters we looted everything, down to their 1 cp belt that we could sell at the leather shop and the throne from a room... *laughs* So if you find your death rate is too high, prehaps offer them a chance to be brought back. Make it a quest for the currently alive charaters to bring back their comrade. To keep the dead player busy, if they have a familiar that is still alive, they can role play that, or hand over temporaily an NPC who is helping with the quest... there's alot of ideas for keeping Mr. Dead entertained and happy. I got quite a kick personally from watching Thanis' charater try to figure out what to do when I failed my save for Flesh to Stone with my half-fey. It was fun sitting back for awhile and realizing just how much my charater made a difference in battles. Not only that, but I think he role played his "daughter" becoming a statue well...
When we had problems with our group we had the luck of having to move. Since we moved to a place that was not so easy to hold game and most of the players either didn't want to host or made it too hard to play at thier house our group reformed itself. Not to mention I didn't forward our address so they would have to call us if they wanted to see us, of which they haven't. Remember, if that kid even lays a finger on you and actually hurts you, it's considered abuse, and since from what I can tell both of you are under 18, it's techinally child abuse. Being an ex-childcare provider, it's a touchy subject. If in the process of having a talk with this player he even attempts to get violent, DO NOT hestitate to call 911, the good men and women that answer those phones are there to help you. I know, my aunt is one of those people. However I understand the hard feelings with asking any player to leave, exspecially if there is close or long term friendships withen the group. Some of the players we had problems with had been my fiance's friend since he was 5, the others since highschool. We were able to smooth things out with his childhood friend, but things are still a tad rough around some of our old players. If you can't find a way to tell him to behave or to leave there are some ways to make it harder to play: 1. Require who hosts D&D to rotate houses and require everyone find their own ride to game. 2. See if changing the time or day of game will make it to where your other players can attend, but it is more difficult for him to make it. 3. Move and don't forward your address... not really a choice for you, but for some it is. 4. Enforce a house rule that they don't like, like lowering and/or requiring point buy. Some powergamers (like the ones in my group) get so uppity about sometimes about even the most minor of rule changes that they will excuse themselves from the game. 5. Ask them to DM, tell them you need a little time to get some game material together and need someone to fill in for a week or two. Often if a powergamer has to DM they began to realize the work you put in and chill out. Remember, worst come to best really there are many people that run very fun online games. As for the beginning of a Horror Players thread... little tip, flirting with the DM's girlfriend when the DM is leaving the house to pick up some pizza for you is NOT a way to be invited back. *shutters* I apoligize for being a bit rough about how to get rid of players, but as you can see from above, I had my reasons for wanting space, as you might find you need space too. Let us know how things go.
Hey Kyr,
I used to be the Referee there, and last summer we topped fifty at the field. I normally wield quarterstaffs and Thanis normally florentines a long sword and short sword. He was the Lord of the Steel Swarm. Unfortnately due to conflicts with some of the other Lords and increased pressure to be there every weekend (which meant less time for D&D amoung other things) we just play at home now. Anyone feel free to send me an e-mail at Celiwyn@gmail.com and I'll tell you more about it if you would like to learn more about this game. Western Washington University and the university in eastern Washington have actual teams and for a while my college, Whatcom Community college had a club. Think of it like the SCA, but instead of padding the people we pad the weapons.
In an online game I play in the DM I think handles description quite well. We all take our turn and say our action, roll, and say anything our charater is going to say etc. When the end of the round rolls around the DM types up a one paragraph summary saying what happened. He's a good storyteller and will do thinks like if we did alot of damage he'll detail where we hit etc. When I edit the logs to turn it into a more story like fashion I find his paragraphs are like reading out of a book. Next time he's online I'll see about getting permission to post one of his recaps.
Kyr, thanks for looking up battle cries. I never knew the orgins of my personal battle cry. My personal battle cry for a weekend sport I play is a very loud and clear, "HOY!" The Clan's battle cry for this sport would be as follows: Clan Lord cries, "VICTORY!"
Other battle cries from some of my charaters:
Cute... very cute. Seriously though, considering the game we spent the most time playing together his charater was my charaters dad and his cohort was my mom...Getting into charater for my half-fey bard/cleric was often spent remembering all the ways I tried to get away with things when I lived with my parents. Thanis' charater would *MAKE* my charater prepare "Blinding Beauty" (Book of Exalted Deeds) and cast it every other day to make sure my charater wasn't doing anything since one of the spell's components was to abstain from sexual activity for a week. She was very upset with her father for dying without even having had a boyfriend and when she was raised from the dead she made sure to let Daddy hear it... until Mom told her to pipe it down.
Like the time that the Bard-Cleric had to fight a Bebilith all on her own... poison darn near killed her -- initial damage dropped her to four con, or something. You forgot to mention the being unable to fly part as well... I remember that. That was cruel... but fun. Two player games can work quite well with care. Having the leadership feat definately helped and building relations with NPC's so get help from time to time was a critical part of the game at times.
Normally for me if it was an online D&D game I read carefully over the logs to make sure my charaters mood does not change between sessions. I also often spend some time either drawing the charater in question or doing something the charater would do. Often before my current game where I am playing a middle aged soc. gnome who owns a weaving and rugs shop I spend some time knitting and muttering, where as before I play my some what self-consious ice castor I might dress nice and listen to music or read. Also often I'll have little mini roleplaying sessions with Thanis and make jokes about our charaters since we often play together.
On a sad note, the same thing happened to me years ago, though they didn't still my D&D books. Just my art supplies and $200 worth of tuition money, and my wallet. The lost art supplies hurt more than the tuition money - full set of Prismacolor colored pencils, which ain't exactly cheap. No kidding, I remember my set of 48 costing around $55 and replacement pencils for ones that got used up or borrowed are about $1.25 per pencil. Lousy thiefs.
Ah... bless Shaw and his quick little paws. My ice caster was saved by her cat. The cat, named Shaw, was given to her as a young girl by a soc. who's familiar had had kittens and later became Carol's familiar (my charater). During the course of the adventure I found myself frustrated with how belittled he seemed next the the other soc's improved familiar mephit. However one day during an epic battle with the big bad spellcastor chick, Shaw saved his master's life. DM: She is casting a spell.
DM: As the spells deadly ray travels toward Carol, Shaw bravely leaps in front of his master to save her. The ray hits him, turning him instantly to dust as Shaw makes the ultimate scarfice for Carol. At the time we had to then escape the building. Carol quickly scooped up the ashes of her beloved familiar. Later in the quest as a gift for saving the world Carol awoke to find her familiar had been brought back to life.
