Should I create a new level 8 PC now or wait for the kill?

We are 2 sessions into Fortress of the Stone Giants. I must admit that it is one of the ones I know very little about, so I'm interested to see how it plays.Alas, the party successfully mowed through all of the bad guys I threw at them last night. I'm beginning to hate dispel magic and silence >:S
And so closes book 3 of Rise of the Runelords: The Hook Mountain Massacre.
Not to worry, hope for a nice TPK springs eternal. We start Book 4: Fortress of the Stone Giants in two weeks.
Did you know there are some nice paper minis you could use for those adventures?
*cough*
First Total Recall, then The Mummy. Anytime there's a character named Benny in a movie, I LOVE them, then they get horribly killed.Makes me think of that character in the Mummy movie. The one who carried a religious symbol for every group.Benny!Joss Whedon wouldn't kill likable Benny...
Of course he would!!!
Oh, wait...First Total Recall, then The Mummy. Anytime there's a character named Benny in a movie, I LOVE them, then they get horribly killed.Makes me think of that character in the Mummy movie. The one who carried a religious symbol for every group.Benny!Joss Whedon wouldn't kill likable Wash...
See??!! And he also killed that demon dude from Angel that was remotely likeable.
Observation of the day: Plants are cool because they can break into soil that is difficult to break apart with your fingers. Also: concrete!Plants are evil because they sit there all innocent-like. "Oh, hmm...I can't move, I'm not a threat to you, OH WAIT THERE'S A GIANT GROSS ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THAT LEAF YOU JUST TOUCHED!" Or green peppers..."look, I'm just a vegetable, just hanging out, but I'm HOLLOW INSIDE AND YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN SCARAB BEETLES MIGHT SWARM OUT OF THOSE HOLLOW PLACES AND EAT YOU!"
...maybe that's just me, though.
Brocolli leaves are all pale, and they always have bug eaten holes in them...they're scary zombie leaves.

Uh...Yeah...
I have a feeling something has gone wrong today.I mean, in a world changing in a bad way kind of way.
Whahappen?
Ah! Naked DMing 2 pages in a row?!?
Room in your game for one more?
You live in a messed up world.That boy needs some red meat. Steak!In today's world, steak is corn, aka. carbs.
Yay, I live in America, on planet Earth, in the Milky Way Galaxy,,in ... (don't know after that,) circa 2011 AD after the death of our Christ.
Time and space coordinates. But I don't think the ones I am using are universally accepted.
Hey, so BT!

Ding-ding-ding! However, how often is it that potatoes are broken up and scattered? Mostly, it's done by burrowing mammals, which aren't very likely to not eat them (well, I suppose there could be large mammals that dug them out of the earth, but even that scatters them only a little). So the trait that makes them so easy to grow in gardens and fields might be useful rarely in a state of nature.Question of the day: What is the evolutionary purpose of the potato's regenerative ability (from the tubers)?Reproductive fitness.
Depending upon the particular environment the potato finds itself in this can be a positive or a negative.
Let's try to quantify 'useful rarely in a state of nature'?
10%? 20%? 2%?
Hi everyone!!!! So, still no pc at home. At work now, figured I'd pop in and say hi. I'm like 4300 posts behind. :(
I wondered where Solnes and Lynora went....Must you give away all my secrets? Next thing you know, you'll be telling them about that time I saved the world from an invasion by extra-dimensional beavers bent on conquest.Makes me think of that character in the Mummy movie. The one who carried a religious symbol for every group.Benny!One of Aberzombies nick names.
Brother 2 called him this for years after the movie came out
o.O MAC!
Hi everyone!!!! So, still no pc at home. At work now, figured I'd pop in and say hi. I'm like 4300 posts behind. :(That stinks! You and Moorluck are missed.
We miss you guys too. But we are enjoying some serious quality time, since we have no internets to distract us. He is working on some Homebrew game conversions, and we are gaming quite a bit more. :)
Was AZ wandering the KY byways?What Arizona want with sex jelly?
I knew someone would go there.

Meh. I'm lucky if my game's party makes it to the third round of combat. They just pwned a Yochlol and her squad of worg-mounted drow.Alas, the party successfully mowed through all of the bad guys I threw at them last night. I'm beginning to hate dispel magic and silence >:S
And so closes book 3 of Rise of the Runelords: The Hook Mountain Massacre.
Not to worry, hope for a nice TPK springs eternal. We start Book 4: Fortress of the Stone Giants in two weeks.
So true - I think the only reason that BBEG battle lasted more than 4 rounds was because I started attacking when they were still 180 feet away.

+1
I miss them as well. Don't tell them though. Don't want them thinkin' I'm goin' soft.Well, Eric is back, though not at full enthusiasm. Aren't we still missing someone. Brain is slow to make name come. Ugh.Solnes? Moorluck? Sharoth? Orthos? Our dragons have thinned out.Orthos was the one totally unaccounted for. <Whew>
Thanks!Agreed, I miss them too. But, since I'm the Anti-FHDM, I want everyone to tell them. Because I *AM* a softy.
Aww we're missed! <3

I'm glad to hear that something positive is resulting from being off the grid. Make the best of it!
It' has been 10 years, I wasn't going to see it anyway. Plus I have the important stuff, I got the kids.** spoiler omitted **Urrrrg! Makes me angry for you, man.
40 bucks a month? really?

I'll be working on a TPK tomorrow, Tordek, never fear. >:DAlas, the party successfully mowed through all of the bad guys I threw at them last night. I'm beginning to hate dispel magic and silence >:S

I have faith in you Jess. Meanwhile, youngest son and I will be playing Arkham Horror with Lebreton on Sunday.
*blink*
YAY Solnes! You and Moorluck are missed. It aint the same without you. Glad to hear you are having fun regardless.
*blink*

I find splitting the baddies up into discrete squads and attacking from several directions helps to soften the Shock and Awe the party responds with.
Went back about 15 pages, but thats all the patience and time I have. Seems everyone is doing aright.
We have inventory here at work again this coming Wed, so I have to run and finish my pre-counts.
I miss you guys though and hope that all is well. I may add that those that have our number may call us and say hi every now and then, as it looks like it will be another two weeks or so before we are back online. And it would help to get a bit of our Fawtl fix. :)
The Dragon calls at least twice a week! Some could take a page from his notebook! ;)
(((hugs))) to everyone.

I don't think I can quantify effectively without statistics. But how often would the potatoes be accidentally unearthed and spread elsewhere? I think, if it was a trait useful to them in recent evolution, they must have evolved with large mammals.
Oh wait! Brain wave! Certain herbivores might tear potatoes up while eating the leaves. You know, that might be it.

It's at least more than 0%. :P

Rub his beak in it, its the only way to teach him. :P
Why is it, that I am bored, no one comes in, so I get a phone call...awesome! And then all of a sudden ...customers! Time to run, take care of business, and then hang up, and everyone clears out. Just not right!
