Flirting with NPCsI think someone once said that there isn’t any varied NPC responses because we’re not supposed to really be our character clbum per se, just a reasonably intelligent person taking on the role of a camwhore, troll or emo kid to pwn forums. (view post) |

(D&D 3.0) The CityThe cavern is empty and devoid of both kobold and noise for now. Unless someone wants to do anything in the mean time, pretty soon in about three minutes the invisiblity is going to wear off. You have this time to set up your strategy or somesuch before getting bumrushed by the kobold mob.(view post) |

(D&D 3.0) The CityNight Gaunt Posted: Not that you know of. It seems like they are not giving pursuit, though you’re pretty sure they know of your existence and possible trespbum into their little cesspit of hell. That, or mbum invisibility and a very good Silence spell. But seriously: they’re kobolds, for Xammux’s sake. Not exactly a race known for their mighty magical powers or intellect, for that matter.

There is no sign of pursuit. All seems quiet as far as you can make out. (view post) |

(D&D 3.0) The CityYou race up the staircase, your heart pounding in your chest even as you flee the pit. Behind you, the sounds of the kobold mob seems to be starting up into a full orchestrated cacophony: you would turn and look, but you’re not too sure if it’s a good idea to run up the stairs while looking behind you.Jason and Adin: Strangely enough, even though the noise is starting to swell, you don’t hear any weapons being drawn or even any sounds of movement towards you. Just as quickly, though, the sound dies down, and all is silent save for the beating of your hearts. You think you’re safe, at least for now. The pit is now below and behind you, and you’re back on the landing where you initially started. (view post) |

Your voice is unnaturally loud in the empty pit… which, you realise a little belatedly, forms a natural echo chamber. Within seconds you hear a startled yelp come from the pbumageway and the sounds of clawed feet scrambling back down the way it came from.
Think fast, children. Looks like you may have to face the kobold horde after all… (view post) |

The lantern’s fine, if a little dented. Thankfully the tinder hasn’t caught yet; neither has the oil leaked from the central drum. With a bit of patience you might just be able to restore it to its pristine condition. (view post) |

The Road to Episode 2: Two Upcoming FeaturesKelp Plankton Posted:
I’ll try to explain the way I understand it and Trout can correct me if I’m wrong.
There are a couple of flavours to the points, each of which are bumociated with different activities. For instance, yellow with misc, blue with klan, red with personal forum pwnage. Each flavour also has certain achievements, which are the things that earn you the points. 10 red points to the person who dominates all the forums, for instance, while contribution to the Spoilerpedia gives you 1 yellow point per significant contribution.
At the end of the week, the player with the most points in most categories would win. If I have 30 red points but 0 points in blue and red, I probably wouldn’t win because I only lead in one category; however, the guy with 10 points of each flavour will take the prize since he is leading in two categories.
Trout, am I right in bumuming this is personal domination as opposed to klan domination? As in klan would only be one flavour of category, the rest being personal? Also, are the forums going to be personal (i.e. every one/every klan gets one) or a communal forum (i.e. a single “Flamebate” forum)? (view post) |

I know that’s what I did. I think someone did mention that without the full range of options available to the player the player has the advantage, actually. But I could be wrong: who here’s the amateur statistician, fess up now! (view post) |

Kobold. Log in to see images!
The lantern drops to the cobbled floor with a dull ring, but you don’t spare it even a pbuming glance; already you’re moving with a speed born of long experience. You can almost feel the Kestrel writhe beneath your fingers in anticipation as you swing the halberd at the kobold’s head, and hear the halberd scream with delight as it takes the head clean off.
To the other two: you don’t see any other kobolds right now. Anyone volunteering to |

Cheap RecipesHere’s a vaguely Indian-tasting dish that all of you kids at home can try. You’ll need:
Pot large enough to hold all your ingredients Fork, to mix and stab things with Chilli powder, to taste (I use approx. 2 - 3 tablespoons) Turmeric, approx. 1 - 1.5 tablespoons Olive oil Salt, to taste (at least 1 tablespoon) Diced garlic, approx. 3 cloves Thinly sliced small red onions, approx. 3 - 6 bulbs 4 - 6 washed baby potatoes; you can leave the skin on Chicken; thigh would be more tender, but breast works just as well.
First, wash and wipe your pot thoroughly. Nothing’s worse than having water in your pot when you begin to heat the oil: it’ll sputter worse than if you had insulted its mum. Once that’s done, oil the pot generously, making sure to coat the sides too lest they stick there. Put it on a stove and make sure the oil is hot before proceeding. Do not do this by sticking a finger into the oil. You can tell when that is so if you throw a small slice of onion into the pot and it sizzles.
Lower heat to medium and throw in potatoes, onions and garlic. Cover it and let the whole thing cook for a while, maybe two to three minutes. In the mean time wash and cut your chicken up into small bite-sized pieces. You may like to rub your chicken down with salt at this moment, but personally I don’t care. After prescribed 2 – 3 minutes, throw the chicken, chilli powder and turmeric into the pot together with a tablespoon of water. Stir well and cover again.
Now, wait till the potatoes are cooked to a semi-tender state, stirring occasionally, then take off the stove. I’m afraid I’m not too sure how long this step takes, I usually cook other **** while this goes on, turning to check on the pot every so often.
Serve over rice or pasta as desired; the latter makes for an interesting, if somewhat “unique”, dish. Viola! A lost-cost but (in my opinion) tasty meal with an exotic hint of the orient. (view post) |

(D&D 3.0) The CityOh nuts, sorry guys I didn’t make it clear. We won’t be “rolling” initiative par se: we’ll take the initiative order as your base inits. That means Zak goes first without a doubt. Jason and Adin can either act concurrently, or either one can let the other go first.
So post up your combat actions. Zak, you’re up. (view post) |

Spoilerpedia MegathreadI thought it would be good if we all could post what we are working on so that we could all help out. I’ve thrown up a mission spoiler list, but I’m not too sure if I’ve gotten the missions in the right chronological order and if I missed out any.
On the same page I’ve also created links to lots of NPCs, so if anyone wants a go at making pages for those NPCs please do so. It’ll be a nice way to start the wiki, that’s for sure.

(D&D 3.0) The CitySabre_Justice Posted: As you approach the archway, you look up and see a figure etched, in intaglio, onto the keystone. It is a portrait of a man, presumbly royalty from the crown he wears on his head. While you cannot be sure from a portrait alone, the heavy beard and powerful square jaw reminds you of a dwarf. Zak: You do not recognise the crown design. In itself, that isn’t too surprising, since your expertise lies mostly in human history, but it is strange still, considering how you have made a cursory study of dwarven heraldry too. If it is an actual historically accurate crown, it must be one that is either extremely old or extremely recent. You cough softly as you step through the arched pbumageway; your steps have stirred up some dust across the threshold. Obviously the kobolds have not crossed this way for some time, if ever. The air is cool and dark in the little vault. The kobolds have not lit this way, that much is obvious. You hesitate, unsure if you should continue into the darkness like this. Who knows what may be waiting for you in there? (view post) |

wut do u want 4 chrismas?Cubear Posted:
death is not something you fear when you have lived through a thousand lifetimes, each more painful and miserable than the last. but in your ignorance you have struck truth, much like a farmer who strikes a vein of silver: yes, i am made of fire, but it is the fire that you cannot see or know. it is the fire of the pbumio, the divine spark of life that eludes definition or meaning. i gesture, and fire answers my summons: they flicker, but i do not burn. do you see? i cannot be burnt. i cannot be extinguished. but their embrace scorches me nonetheless. i feel my flesh wither and warp, i feel my skin blacken and crack, i hear my throat give cry and give the agony a name.
and that name is “marie”. (view post) |
