I wish you all plenty of enjoyment with the new game!
You have a rare opportunity in PBP in that the four of you can work with each other and Shanosuke to truly build a cohesive group! :)
Have fun!

Well, it looks like a City game. Thank you for running Xanxiou's Crystal, Shanosuke. However, I think that I'll bow out. Good luck to all of you! Cheers!
Well, with just the bare bones, I'd have to say: 1) The Jungle
It has slowed quite a bit. If we made new characters, what kind of level would we be looking at? I would like something a little higher, as the first few levels are really squishy. :P The Jungle Campaign or Island Adventure sound the most appealing (in that order). Just my two coppers worth.
"Cripes! The creep got away!" Harn fumed. "We should tend to our wounds before traveling any further." Turning to Klug'Tier, he asked, "how long am I going to be big?" Harn then looked around. "Hey, where's Yamalgo?"
"The two fallen Dundamar where leather armor and have strange black crooked scimitars. Same specs as a scimitar just a different look.
Just re-posting this here so we don't forget. :)
"Can anyone see that thing? We shouldn't let it get away!" Harn said.
When Harn realized that no opponent was forthcoming, he drew a potion from his pack and imbibed it. "That's better!" he said. Noticing Klug's dire predicament, he moved to help. As he did, he called out to the drow bard, "Hey Tlugos! Heal Xzevrra! She's good in a fight!"
S'okay, I was just curious to see what was going on. :)
Just checking in...
"Thanks," Harn said to Tlugos.
Harn struggled to his feet and lashed out with his spiked chain at the nearest target.
Well, I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas!
"Unnnn... wha?" mumbled Harn as he regained consciousness.
Yep, looks like the fight is going well. :P
Harn collapsed to the ground, still larger than normal.
The others could see him breathing normally, although his wounds were grievous.
Feeling trapped, Harn snarled furiously, and lashed out at one of his attackers.
Unfortunately, he failed to connect. "Blast it!" he snarled in Undercommon.
Harn snarled at the Dundamar that hit him and attempted to return the favor.
So, what does a "Dundamar" look like?
"All right ya flamin' bastards, try this!" bellowed the over-sized half-orc in Deepcommon.
Harn whirled his spiked chain and snapped it at the the fiery humanoid near Yamalgo. Unfortunately, he still wasn't used to his size increase, and misjudged the attack. "Blast it!"
As the flaming humanoid came into range, Harn attempted to trip him.
The enlarged half-orc then attacked the other flaming humanoid that was attacking him.
Harn looked askance at the strange vial of liquid for a moment before taking it. "Why not? Bottoms up!" Harn said, drinking the infusion. Suddenly, he grew to twice his height, towering over his companions.
"Aw, crud! There goes the nice welcome!" Harn muttered as he drew his spiked chain and stepped to the front of the group.
Harn grinned fiercely at Ollivor because of Xzevrra's backhanded compliment. Turning his attention to her following statement, he said, "As long as they don't attack us, that sounds fine!"
"A Gunar huh? Yep, I'm thankful for every day that I continue to draw breath!" Harn barked. When Xzevrra asked him about the whorehouse, he replied with a grin, "Of course! A male has needs after all, and it's not like the ladies were exactly knocking down my door." It was obvious from the half-orc's tone that his bestial appearance was something that he'd come to terms with long ago.
"Wheh! It's hotter'n an Absalom whorehouse down here!" Harn exclaimed.
"Argh!" Harn let go of the javelin now that he was in the grip of the sea creature. He drew and attacked with his kukri.
"I'm not interes--whoah!" cried Harn as he tumbled over the side of the boat.
"Ah, Ollivor, you just aim the pointy end at the beasty and throw!" Harn said conversationally, all whilst keeping an eye on the aquatic creature.
***POKE*** ***PROD***
"Ooh! Javelins!" Harn said, taking one in each hand, though it's obvious that he only intends on using one at a time. The half-orc tracked the movements of the aquatic beast, judging when best to throw.
"Well, this looks like fun!" said Harn cheerfully. Motioning toward Yamalgo, he added, "Xzevrra, can you ask our gracious host if he has a preferred course of action regarding this creature?" The half-orc admired the female drow's figure as he continued, "Specifically: should we attack it, or leave it be?"
Yawning, Harn said, "Well, I don't know about the rest of you, but my mentor Argus always told me to catch what sleep you can, because you never know when you'll be able to get more!" The half-orc curled up in the middle of the raft and quickly fell asleep.
"That's the spirit!" replied Harn, slapping the Ollivor on the back.
Harn gave the female drow one of his toothy smiles, "Sounds like fun! Plus the whole mystery of Xanxiou's Crystal intrigues me. Count me in!"
"Now, now. Everyone just calm down! We're all in the same boat here--" Harn said with a toothy grin. "--Well, we will be assuming we can actually acquire a boat to get off this rock!"
Harn was taken aback by Klug'Tier's statement. "Um, sure," he replied calmly, but didn't turn around.
Harn repeated Ollivor's question in Undercommon.
To the others, Harn said, "Well, it turns out that we've encountered someone new." Indicating the drow, the half-orc added, "His name is Tlugos."
"Pleased to meet you, Tlugos. There's a small group of us out here, looking to get off this island. You're welcome to join us. After all, the more the merrier!" the half-orc said cheerfully. Harn motioned for Tlugos to join them outside.
Shanosuke: Harn, taken aback by the presence of a strange drow, nevertheless pressed forward, speaking in Undercommon, "Um, hello stranger. I'm Harn, what's your name?"
"Uh, sure Xzevrra," Harn replied with obvious surprise. The half-orc headed to the Gawweed's shack to see what (and who) was inside.
Yay! I can see the posts again!!! :D
Well, seeing how another earthquake happened and we were all dumped in the water, perhaps this new bard was dropped into the drink as well and found his way to the island.
"Cheery!" replied Harn. "Well, I'm ready if everyone else is," the half-orc said as he quickly ate some of his rations.
Harn awoke and stood to stretch, letting out a big yawn. Looking around, he did a head count of the group. "Hey, where'd Zhimon go?" he asked. The half-orc searched around, attempting to find some clue to the drow's whereabouts.
