(D&D 3.0) The CityNight Gaunt Posted: The gnome ignores you, still curled into a foetal ball and sobbing. Cenbuma: You sniff the air again. The stench of decay is getting stronger, and you’re sure that it’s coming from the straw pile in the corner of the room. The ammoniac stench is distasteful, but it doesn’t fully mask the awfully familiar smell of rot. (view post) |

(D&D 3.0) The City“Pl-... please. You don’t understand. They… I can’t be here! I’ve got to get out of here! Oh god I’m too young to die, ohgodohgodohgod...”
He pants heavily, his face pale and drawn, his eyes wide and fearful. His fear is almost palpable, almost real enough for you to reach out and feel it in the air between your cell and his. With a final whimper, he sinks to the ground and starts sobbing to himself. (view post) |

(D&D 3.0) The City“HEY! HEY!!”The gnome presses his face against the bars of his cell, hissing in a desperate attempt to get your attention. You see a vein by the side of his neck throb furiously, his knuckles white from his grip on the iron bars. At about 3’, he’s small even for a gnome, but his tattered garb may have once been expensive imported silk. Right now, though, he’s a right mess, with a face smeared with ash and filth, his left eye constantly twitching as he shifts his gaze around nervously. Voaer: The silk looks like it may have come from Easington, a small village to the west of Bartelville. In your “professional” estimation”, it may have cost anything from 200gp up when it wasn’t ripped. Cenbuma: You think you see some arcane symbols on the hem on his robes, but in the dim light of the dungeon it’s hard to really make out what they say or mean. (view post) |

(D&D 3.0) The CityCenbuma
They called you crazy when they kicked you out of the Academy. Said you were insane, that you were obssessed and a lunatic psychopath. Not like it mattered what those simpletons thought. You knew that true power only came to those who weren’t afraid of it, afraid of the sacrifice and dedication that it takes to be able to master one’s destiny. Those fools, the Xammux take them, let their own fear and “morality” keep them from attaining real power.
So you left the Academy and set out on your own path to greatness. The cheapest place you could find for rent was a dingy manse on Cross Street: the neighbourhood was quiet, with a fair number of the homeless that nobody would notice if they “accidentally” went missing some day. It was good.
Good, that is, until the day the Night Watch caught you digging up a freshly-buried corpse at the local Temple to Wee Jas. The ground was harder and the digging tougher than you had expected, and you grew tired; tired enough that you did not see the light of the patrol until it was too late.
They charged you with necrophilia. When you protested that you would never do anything like that, that you were merely seeking to learn, the crowd did not respond like you had anticipated; instead of letting you free like a sane court would, they condemned you to a life sentence in the dungeons for practicing “unnatural arts”. Unnatural arts! Were these people so ignorant that they could not even recognise knowledge for knowledge’s own sake? Was it that difficult to comprehend that there could be an individual who was not satisified being a plebian peasant and wanted to rise above the great unwashed mbumes?
But they threw you into a cell anyway. The place smells of urine and fecal waste, but beneath it all you think you can barely just detect the sickly sweet familiar stench of decay. Hmm.
Your new cellmates are looking at you expectantly. Better get these ‘introductions’ out of the way before you forget how it’s usually done.
I like my coffee like I like my prisoners: pale and interesting. (view post) |

It was unfortunate that they caught up with you before you could collect payment for that orphanage job. Who would have thought that the Paladins of Heironeous would move so quickly, what with their usual lethargy in doing everything else. You might have even stood a chance against the paladins if that interferring priest hadn’t stepped in…
They say you’re going to hang for it on the next full moon. 24 little children burnt alive, with only one who survived the fire. Even then he would never look quite the same, even if they did somehow find him a new face to graft onto him. But a job was a job, and that’s all there is to it, isn’t it?
The gnome in the opposite cell has finally calmed down a little and is merely pacing the room now. Better that than the screaming and begging he was doing just a few days back. The indignity of it all was humilating, to just watch him cry and weep and pray desperately to his mute gods. The blindfolded elf still hasn’t moved much since you’ve been here save to eat. The guards seem a little afraid of him and treat him with more respect than you’ve seen them treat anyone in your week here. Idly, you wonder what the blind elf did to land up here.
Speaking of the guards, they dragged a new guy in today. He immediately curled up in a corner and fell asleep- no doubt trying to sleep off the cheap wine you smell off him. And it looks like he wouldn’t be your only new cellmate too: in the distance you can see them dragging in yet another one.
Fresh blood. Go ahead and mingle. (view post) |

Life blows.
Well, not “blows” blows, of course, because the gods know you could be using some of that right now. I mean, we could say “life sucks”, or “life’s a ****”, but you’ve tried both and, to be honest, you wouldn’t mind a bit of either right now.
The jail cell was dirty and cramped when the guards shoved you in here, and things haven’t improved much since you were last conscious a few minutes ago. The pile of straw in the corner smells like something drenched in **** just died there recently, and seeing how you don’t see any sanitary devices around these parts, chances are you probably wouldn’t be too far off with that guess. Your complimentary “room mates” aren’t exactly your first choice either: there’s this sullen guy in one corner in black and another new guy they just dragged in. Great.
You don’t suppose the other cells have it any better either. There’s this creepy elf in the opposite cell with a bloodied blindfold over his eyes who keeps smiling to himself while a nervous gnome keeps pacing up and down and muttering and chewing at this fingertips and generally doing everything he can to aggravate your hangover even more. If only you knew that you’ll be stuck with these people, you probably wouldn’t have polished off that last round of drinks…
It was all grossly unfair anyway. What did you do to deserve this? All you did was chat up the wrong girl, that’s all. It wasn’t as if she was anything special either; you’ve had better. Huh. Now that you think about it, it probably wasn’t such a good idea to tell her that. Or, for that matter, that you didn’t intend to stay too long in her general vicinity after the deed was done. Still.
Well, more than enough time to feel miserable later. Go make some friends or something! (view post) |

(D&D 3.0) The City
Welcome to the City! A few things up front: – OOC talk in italics: Damn you, DM! – Dice rolls in bold: Roll Ref (+5) to avoid falling off the fat girl. – Confidential information in spoilers. When I post these, they’re usually preceded by the intended recipients in italics: Voaer:The fat girl is actually a demon in disguise. – Everything else in plain text. As agreed earlier on, I’ll be making the rolls for everyone. As your first post, please post up your character sheet (in code) with a brief physical description- and some character history- of yourself in italics. While the character history is not compulsory, it’s certainly encouraged! Interest thread here. (view post) |

interactive threadravenblooDDarkdreams Posted:
your thread fails to deliver. it isn’t as much ‘interactive’ as it is a dull, broken reflection of the despair the human condition instils in all of us. what else could we do to you that you have not successfully done in worse, more horrific ways? i would do you a favour and tell you to slit your own throat, but i don’t see why i should end your suffering.

You’re too late. Trout mailed out all the hot chicks just before you arrived. I got mine just a week ago and she was functioning perfectly: even as we speak now I’m getting said “sloppy male reproductive organ action”, if you know what I mean and I’m sure you do.

Predicting Gamble-Bot in RPSI think Trout mentioned before that both RPS and Blackjack were as fair as he could make them out to be. If you noticed anything unusual about the patterns… well, this could probably go a fair way to explaining why. (view post) |

Camwhores need to be buffed.ArgaWarga Posted:
Hah! I actually think this idea is fantastic. It could be called Elicit Lust, which mechanically then causes a random action (mentioned above) to be performed every camwhore’s turn for a few rounds. I love it: it fits the character, it’s unique and most of all it’s fun. (view post) |
