To the people of New Acarthia, we of the Juren send greetings. During our sojourn on the Reve March, we have been guided by the prudent and systematic search for knowledge; now that we have returned from that unfortunate land, we hope to create bonds of amity and mutual benefit guided by these...

"Two shatters. Two iron golems. This is a satisfyingly optimal set of circumstances."

So much stuffffffff... I now want to thank all the terrible enablers who answered my "I should not play a stone elf right?" with "You should totally play a stone elf." I'm now not sure why I thought it was a good idea for this character not to be a stone elf. In addition to any other thing, I...

I'll NPC Saturday and Sunday save the last slot which I are in.

First, I gotta introduce to you: Peat Moss. She is a dryad. She is insubordinate and snarky. She throws sketchy parties, curtsies sarcastically at our nobility, and does miscellaneous useful functions in wave battles such as endow-dragging, refitting, etc. The sort of things that one does to be...

Let's see... I was in kind of a low-energy state this event for various reasons, so I kind of felt like I wasn't playing things to their full potential. It turned out to be a really satisfying event though. -- Dinner. I still can't look at potato chips without feeling awkward. -- ORC DRUMMING...

Having tried (well, done; there is no try) the lock that llywelyn is talking about, I can confirm that it's quite a lot easier -- and also more fun -- than one might think from hearing off the bat that it's a multi-tumbler lock. I'd really encourage folks to give it a try before concluding that...

Ohgods. I am SO TIRED. I think my favorite fight was the ogre battle. SO MANY PAKKIT. The archery dueling bit was perhaps not the most tactical thing to do but I think it was... funtical? I really hope someone got video for the final fight. The PCs all looked like heroes. It was awesome. Also...

If only the PCs hadn't been so proactive on the whole wedding guard thing, I could have cleared up a lot of those loose ends :D

So, having just PCd for basically the first time... I got into Alliance in the first place because a friend of mine badgered me into coming (:P). They're on Plot, as are a couple other good friends of mine, so when it comes to the question of "Which team do you want to play on, given that you...

COMBAT UKULELE Y'ALL. Running through the creepy glowy stick land with the grabby sticks reaching out, while flailing randomly on the ukulele and trying to stay away from swordies that weren't ours was a really trippy experience. Particularly funny thing is that previous to this point, I hadn't...

According to http://www.coemergency.com/p/fire-bans-danger.html, fire restrictions are set by the local county. In this case that's Teller County, correct? At the moment, they have a note on their front page, http://www.co.teller.co.us/ , that indicates that fire restrictions are in effect and...

So, here is a thing that I observe: I do not own any 35mm film containers at this time, because I've been digital-only in the photography domain for at least the last decade. I do remember about how big those things are/were, though, and when I made my packets I kept this in mind. Consequently...

The thing that strikes me generally with modifying stuff is that you have to be cautious in picking your base item -- it's easy to say "I'll take this and modify it" and end up with doing a lot more work to get a much worse result than starting from, in this case, no vest in the first place...

I'd certainly like to learn more about setting traps, and also about disarming them properly (this not being a thing I've done much yet).

Well, one could equally say on the other side that if noble PCs act in a way that alienates non-noble PCs, that the players should realize that there will IG consequences for that action and not blame or chide the players of the non-noble PCs. Also, I think on both sides that we want to engage...

Far as the notion that folks can observe IG that a more skilled fighter can be stabbed in the... well, not face actually, that they can be stabbed in the body consistently so many times before they fall down AND that their face doesn't really exist for the purpose of stabbing, what I think is...

The other thing about "lightning bolt" vs "dagger blow" is, at least in my mind, "lightning bolts" are consistent in a way that "dagger blows" aren't. Obviously this is a function of how you visualize what is going on, but I might see a lightning bolt as so many joules of energy striking the...

Oy. -- Stalking through the woods putting things in trees was fun. Both with the folks who didn't see me and the ones who did :D. Also, it occurs to me that I may have something to dump the cool alchemist aesthetic things that don't work for a combat PC on. <_< >_> -- I had a lot of fun with...
