Dantius

Sorry for the triple post, but the session's been going on for the past three hours, and it looks like some players are online. I fixed the redirect above, come on and play!

What room is it in? spiderwebRP2? EDIT: Yeah, it's in spiderwebrp2. Here's a redirect, past it into your URL bar: Code: aim:GoChat?RoomName=spidwebrp2

Should be able to make it, if nothing comes up.

Naturally, a zombie warrior or whoever would have low intelligence (at least until you gave him/her more) but they would be a strong fighter. I don't know, but I'd find it to be quite fun. Until then, the best I can do is use the editor and swap out the PC graphics with others I find online of undead/spirits and goof around aimlessly. Anyone have any thoughts on this? Is there already one made and out? If so, I'll definitely give it a look. Thanks in advance for any comments or questions. I would totally play a scenario in which you played as a Lich, even if it were BoE.

Originally Posted By: Triumph Stuff about Selos I didn't follow Selos too heavily after they got to the Oracle, but here's what I would have done had I been DM'ing it.

Then, as the party and the pilgrims made their way back, they'd hear rumors along the way (maybe they'd travel along the coast) that Zarusa had installed herself as the virtual dictator of the city, executing all who opposed, crushing the populace, under the boot, etc. Then, the final boss would be her, and the PC's would have to fight through the city, the palace, and then confront her in an epic duel for freedom. And don't tell me she's too high a level to dispose of. the Bloodmarsh players made short work of the second most powerful necromancer in all of history, so clearly one high-level wizard wouldn't be too difficult.

I think that the final session of BM really taught the necessity of some things. Like, for instance, healing. Also, I did not know that my HP was that high. I thought it was at 25.

I was going to post this tommorrow, but why not now? The Calender! (Sessions will, as previously mentioned, take place somewhere between 6 to 12 CDT.) Also, last chance for new players/players who were on deck to confirm that they'll play.

Hmm, never would have seen that pronunciation coming. I just guessed that it would be phonetically similar to the more famous Linnaeus.

What amazes ne isn't so muchtye amount of memory that is an a desktop, but the amount of storage thAt can be on tine, tiny devices. I think that there 1TB SD cards out there. I can store more memory Ina chip that's smaller than a fifty-cent piece (bet most of you don't know what that is. Back in the day, we could get an ice cream for a nickel, after walking five miles to school uphill both ways) than there is in the entire Library of Congress.

Was the subtitle really neccessary? Couldn't it just be called Avadon? I mean, you might as well call it Avadon: Fantasy cliche here. Still, the screenshots look really pretty. It uses a variant of the Geneforge engine, right?
