Not only was Grot not present this week, nor was the Ninja's player. However, he was clearly with us in spirit, as Garrick's player took over and managed to capture the elegance the Ninja brings to the game. When fighting another batch of evil dwarves, in the first round of combat the Ninja: Moves and […]
We fight evil dwarves! Grot steps up to the battle and hacks and slashes his way through the little blighters, until no more are left standing. Well, except for the invisible ones who attack him without warning. Two pop out of thin air and stab him, one of them quite hard. He fights back, with […]
How peculiar. One moment we are chatting to some battle-worn dwarves, then my head goes dizzy and the dwarves are replaced by small, evil-looking angry creatures. I could still see Grot, Shaniqua and Garrick, but Gimp was hard to place. So many small, evil-looking angry creatures, how could I pick him out of that line-up? […]
Fresh from our overnight rest, Chain Devils notwithstanding, we head deeper in to the cave network, with our Ninja and Mage at the front scouting. You may think that sending a Mage to scout is a really bad idea, and you'd be right. He completely failed to spot a Bone Devil until it attacked our […]
As we were getting a bit tired from a day's adventuring and fighting we find what looks like a safe place to sit back and relax for the night, partially hidden away from the main thrust of the cave system's corridors. We still need to keep our guard up a bit, as it is possible […]
We found a powerful tome recently. Looking it over, one of our party who was knowledgeable in religion or arcane matters was able to identify it as a being used by spell-casters to gain power to their spells. If someone were to put his hand on the front of the tome and call for the […]
'What have I done to deserve this? I must have been really evil in a previous life', wails our Mage. 'What do you mean, 'previous'?'
It is almost a rule that if you are not present for a gaming session then your character will be brave to the point of stupidity or will end up quite badly harmed. Probably both, as one leads to the other. This is a scientific feedback mechanism that encourages players to turn up for each […]
In looking for missing villagers and Ogre bandits we follow a map to a set of doors set high up in a dormant volcano. On opening them, we are faced with some stairs that lead downwards and in to a room lit with a reddish light. Our Mage decides that he wants to scout the […]
We're not exactly a Good-aligned party, and we tend to shoot first and ask questions later; I'm okay with this, for the most part, but every now and again I have to wonder about my companions. We continue our investigations in to missing people and missing cargo, knowing that Ogres are behind some of it, […]
