I just realized that Kyle Baird killed me!!

I thought of this during PaizoCon last week, but, when I checked, I must have misread, because I thought that he didn't.

I just re-checked, and realized that Kyle Baird *did* write Rats of Round Mountain, Part I!!! So, while Kyle wasn't running the scenario personally, I am still holding him directly responsible for the death!

Even though he denied me my claim on the glory of a kill: (here)

I don't want players who want their characters to die, their lack of tears is depressing.

... it still counts, in my book!!

The funny thing is that I wanted my Living Monolith to be able to claim the right to the title "the Risen". So, when Mat Black accidentlly almost let some damage slide, I pointed out to him that he hadn't rolled it all, and that I was going to take 20 more damage from reducing in size after Risghteous Might ended, as well.
I cheered! I was thrilled. Ecstatic, even.
I mean, it was bound to happen eventually, and I got to use a boon to become part of the Pharaoh's personal guard! I already carry a personal favor of the Pharaoh, the Ruby Prince himself, (the Pharaoh's Crook of Order from Assault on the Kingdom of the Impossible), so, this made it especially cool!

So, there, Kyle! I died, and it's all your fault!
Do I get Prestige Points for this?

In the spirit of blaming Kyle for party deaths in the Rats of Round Mountain scenario. Kyle you killed the rest of my party! You're a terrible terrible person for that... I'm okay with it personally, you didn't get me.

I'm half tempted to take a photo of actually bottling tears in a tiny little jar, just for the sake of the epic laughs. :-)

Oh, but, hey ... why're you still living with the Four Horsemen? Man, move outta your Dad's house. You're, like, four centuries old, man. Get your own place. ;)

I've got to revive this thread in order to give Kyle Baird props for an awesome adventure that really put my players through their paces. BBEG tore a Mersiel pre gen to shreds with a full attack, but the rest of the party eventually succeeded. We have many PC's going up and down during the fight and I had a fantastic time. I think my players even kind of enjoyed it. :P

I've got to run that one soon. I've heard many good things about it.

I think it would have ended sooner, if the player of Merisiel hadn't decided it was hopeless after the first or second round...

In the end, the BBEG was taken down by a tanglefoot bag and the grease spell... ;)

Indeed, I have a new found respect for cheap debuffs! Entangled and prone is a great combo. -6 to all attacks and if you stand up and make your reflex save you still take a party full of AoO. :D

The only reason I've refused to let a Kyle Baird scenario kill me is because I don't want to be like everyone else!

Edit: I'm sorry. I'm still picturing a Chuck Norris/Strawberry Shortcake love-child.

That was a fun adventure. My barbarian chugged a potion of fly before the final encounter, which made for an epic chase when the bad guy was damaged enough to try and get away, and I got the final blow in... but not with my usual weapon.

Why kill just 1 table at a time when you can kill tables while you sleep?

EXACTLY!

According to 2 different groups at U-Con, they walked all over Kyle's scenario, but the other day Jim Groves' Scenario "The Golden Serpent" reduced grown men to crying. They didn't even die and they were crying.

5/5

1) Even the best best written scenario can't overcome GM incompetence. ;-)

2) The Golden Serpent had me in tears as well. I collected them in a jar and sent them to Jim.

Silver Crusade 5/5

1) I'll pass the message to Thea...

2) It is a brutal scenario. The main map is a beautiful bit of cartography as well. It adorns the wall in my lair in all of it's blown up and full color glory.

1/5

I should send my tears to Jim too; Tears of Joy at running his scenario!

5/5

1) I knew it was Thea.

2) When has she ever run a table that was considered deadly?

True...she botched offing someone in the Dalsine affair.

That was totally my fault. My halfling distracted her with his powderhorn.
