So long my silvered scythe... I have to content myself with stainless steel.


What's the name of the local bar?

The tavern in Riverbend is called the Golden Knight. To say it is a modest peasant inn gives it too much credit. There are few rooms: one

the kitchen and owner’s bedroom, one the brewery and storage room for casks, and the third the common room filled with a large fireplace and tables. There are no sleeping spaces except for the attic. Getting there involves climbing a ladder to sleep in the same room as whatever farmers, tinkers, and road patrols are also guests of the Golden Knight that evening.

On the other hand, the Golden Knight is the only place in Riverbend where the locals drink a pint and freely answer questions from outsiders.

We're ready for whatever may befall us. Isn't that right, old friend?


M Cat 4

Rowr!

"So, hair up or hair down? First impressions make a difference. Down is girly and innocent, up is sophisticated and "Look at me, I can juggle fire." Decisions are so hard sometimes."

Growr?

As soon as you've got a character, join the fun. No need to have all the mechanics worked out at this stage (unless someone picks a fight with the Reeve)

Snarfl.

Bren's character sheet is ready for Pat's approval. I have not chosen magic items yet, sorry.


Is the IC thread up?


M Elf Ranger (beastmaster) 4

Yes.


Copy.

Two things:

Fighters aren't proficient in plate without the feat, and you need to replace the 2[W] and so forth with die codes. Thanks!

Badslacker:

Spoiler:
There are numerous errors in your sheet. Your level add is +2, but your Dex add is only +1. It also shows you wounded! It looks like you cut-and-pasted from Lafiel, but haven't updated things. Finally, your Insight appears to be only +8, which doesn't get you the spoilers -- I based that comment off your rolling at +10 on the previous turn.

Pat

Spoiler:

Yeah, the character sheet is about midway now. The insight is still +10 though - +5 trained, +2 level, +1 wis, +2 race

Cool.

Pat, that Fighter stuff on my character sheet is residual from copying and pasting from another PC. I'm picking powers, feats and equipment today. That should complete it after your approval.

I forgot to update that. Power attack swapped with armor proficiency.

bmars, sorry for being a snob, but can you choose a portrait for Cyrus' avatar? I can't get the image of a plastic figure out of my head when I try to visualize Cyrus!

Again, sorry.

Word up all, I'm away until Sunday night GMT. Elias will continue to stare at the pond.

Pat, here are my magic item choices. Though I've put them in spoilers, everyone is free to take a look.

Spoiler:

Plate Armor Battleforged +1
Level 5
Property: If you use your second wind when you are
bloodied, regain an extra 1d10 hit points.

Great Axe, Terror +1
Level 4
Enhancement: Attack rolls and damage rolls
Critical: +1d8 damage
Power (Daily , Fear): Free Action. Use this power when
you hit with the weapon. The target takes a –2 penalty to
all defenses (save ends).

Safewing Amulet +1
Level 3
Item Slot: Neck
Enhancement: Fortitude, Reflex, and Will
Property: When falling, reduce the distance by 10 feet for
the purpose of calculating damage. You always land on your
feet after a fall.


m human 1

Wow, Wrath of the River King is off to an interesting start. Adventures usually start in taverns, but never with the monsters inside. Thanks to Pat for making it come alive, of course.

Sovereign Court

M Human Expert 7

Thank ye. I have another homebrew game that's been simmering, but Wrath was so beautiful when it came out I had to run it first.

The other one might come when I've got some downtime in the Summer, or after one of my current three games ends for some reason.


Human

Team Dragora's massive talent for falling off and into things is a potential game killer :D

Fabes, your avatar keeps evolving.

I'll update after I finish downloading my anti-virus.

Look at the bright side -- you'll get XP for a successfully completed skill challenge, and for a fight!

Well, assuming . . .

Hey, all.

Sorry about the delay in updates. My son got sick so my plans went all higgledy-piggledy. I should be able to update later today.

The satyrs' turns take a while, plus expanding the map!

Dark Archive

We understand, man. We'll be here when you get back.


m human 1

BTW, I was ignorant about how Kobold Quarterly's open design modules work. I feel pretty lucky that Pat is running this game for us. Thanks again, man.

Don't fret Pat, we all have real life to deal with.

Thanks, all. Working on an update soon.

This is for all the games I'm GMing:

The semester starts Monday. I'm teaching a new prep (i.e., a class I haven't taught before) this semester, so class prep time will likely interfere with gaming time.

The game is not going on hold, and I will still do my best to post every day. The main effect will probably be to slow down combats somewhat.

But hey, next weekend is a holiday!

The pleasure is mine!

Of the three prepared adventures I'm running, this is definitely the best constructed.

The modules that KQ publish are limited editions that only their "patrons" may receive. Basically, KQ's Wolfgang Baur comes up with an adventure idea, asks patrons to contribute money, and writes the adventure with creative input from the patrons.


In Wrath's Shadow

Well, I join in on the compliment. It indeed seems to be a good adventure (Supposing we survive the first encounter :) ).


m human 1

Indeed !


Human

The combination of this and Dragora's has made me create backup characters in case they're needed.


m human 1

I think the AD&D 2nd ed. setting Dark Sun actually required a player to make up two characters at the beginning of a campaign. It was supposed to be that challenging.

Dark Archive

I'm thinking of making a backup also. Just in case.


Male Human - dash of elf Miniature painter/ Heroic

Dark Sun told you to make 4 characters, in fact. Absolutely mad.
