…all while avoiding the evil duke’s men
Great Gobs O’ Stuff
Happy Birthday to robin_d_laws, who is, I assure you, as fine a fellow as you’ll ever meet and one of the best game designers in the history of the art form.
The Second Village Poll is closed and megdeon and boundfate missed Last Call. I shall personally fill in the blanks on their characters later. The next Village Poll will go up very soon and be open to all.
Grace and I went to see City of Ember yesterday. We both really enjoyed it. Plenty of action, an interesting setting, likeable characters and a giant mutant star nosed mole. What more could you want?
My small winter veggie garden is doing well, altho the spinach has yet to poke it’s head above the soil. The peas, carrots, radishes and lettuce are all above ground (well, most of each radish and carrot is underground) and growing like crazy.
Sunday was game day and the PC’s did the following…
Rescued the Breeder Slaves from their cruel captivity
Had a fast paced and scary escape down the underground Forbidden River
Helped the former slaves establish a small community
Followed their dream given directions to a small village that not only got bigger as the days passed, but got more racially and economically diverse, too.
Found out that the village was populated by tulpa like entities, who needed the PC’s to stay among them for a week in order for the villagers and the village to become corporeal and “real”.
Left the village with many fine gifts (including a cool expandable chuck wagon/camper pulled by two mini triceratops) and the villagers undying respect and love.
Proceeded to make a beeline to a rumored ruined fort, where, they were sure they would find fortune and glory.
Found the ruins, but instead of fortune and glory, triggered a bit of magical critical mass and caused the mage of the group to give birth to the first elementals…in one case, literally.
Hauled ass out of the elemental homeland and into the hills.
We will play again in two weeks, at which point I expect the PC’s will once again find themselves neck deep in adventure.
More stuff, with a 30% chance of nonsense, later
damn…sorry about missing it…haven’t had internet for about three weeks…or maybe only two but it felt longer.
