Oh, I agree, changing the monster would be illegal. I think he meant unsanctioned with his first statement - the post makes a lot more sense then.

No I think Souluzar thinks its actually an AP to be run in Campaign mode. At least that is what his statement meant to me.


I once was handed a 8x11 piece of paper by a fellow player at Convention. He wanted me to read his backstory.


What's the greatest DnD game of all time?

I plan on playing an Elven Ranger that duel wields scimitars. Attack penalties be damned!

Well for my character it was only 2 hours :). And it was online, not at a con.

Wow that sucks. At least you didn't play it with a level 2 and have that crappy experience.

Accursed Halls should take no less than 4-6 hours to play. Slotting it at less than a 6 hour slot is a disservice to everyone involved.

On the contrary, I hear that PbP games have WAY more roleplaying than most tabletop sessions.

Wasn't talking about play by posts but I'm glad to hear that you heard some good things about PbP. That is at least encouraging.

You should give a randonm non-PbP online game a try and report back what you experienced personally.

The citizens in the town of Thornkeep, particularly the Blue Basilisks and the goblin ghetto, should be giving you some suspicions about what's happened to the NPC in question
Interesting. At the start of our version, our intrepid group of newb adventurers *started* at the entrance to the stairs down. No town encounters at all, no gather info or hearing any rumors, except for the fact that they call it "Halls Under the Hill" or similar.

A symptom of pen and paper games being lowered to the level of grinding sessions online.

Playing PFS online has done a lot to sully the reputation of pen and paper RPGs in my experience. I feel sorry for the players who start and end their PnP careers with crappy online experiences.
