Ask A Gamemaster / HELP!
« on: October 09, 2013, 12:32:42 am »
I accidentally sold a valuable item at the Hlint pawn shop.  I am sitting IG now with the shop window open.  If a GM can log on to help get the item back, I would appreciate it.

Mistone is a larger and more complicated land than I ever anticipated.  Everywhere I go there are rumors of the legendary stone-bound who liberated my people, reminding me of the price I paid.  I have seen the Leringard Arms, Blackford Castle, the sleepy town of Hlint, the Tower of Darkness, the Silkwood Witch, Moraken's Abode, it goes on and on, a seemingly endless role call of legend.  It inspired me to push myself further, to find new magic, improved skill, better equipment. These things I have done: I can provide powerful enchantments to my bow and arrows, those of fire and weave-born strength; I have learned wards and illusions that make me invicible to all but the most powerful foes; I have improved my aim; I have improved my stamina.  I am many times the elf I was before I left.  But this does not fill the void I feel.  I wish nothing more to see the great peaks of my home, to feel the embrace of my love.  I will keep my word though, never to return unless called for in need, and until that day I must be as ready as can be.So I travelled to Spellgard, thinking that if there were a place to find a practioner of arcane archery that the home of Lucinda's greatest temple would be it.  I wandered the grounds, asking person after person for any information.  I received every reaction conceivable except accomodation. I found myself in the Library hoping to speak with a rather officious looking mage, but instead found myself speaking with another elf, Eril'lin Fea, who had been hired to find a rare spell component, a slaad tongue.  He promised me half of the fee if I aided him, and I decided to help the sorcerer, as it was a good deed and may help me find connections in Spellgard.  We decided to travel to Cor'ys to investigate an ancient temple the Eril'lin had heard rumor of.  The journey took us through a tribe of fierce Sahaguin, but once there we had little doubt we would find what we needed.  The temple virtually sizzled with power, and as we tried to cross a vast chasm, we were assailed by summons from what seemed to be our quarry.  We were beaten back, and forced to retreat.  We made the long journey back to Fort Vehl to gather some healing supplies to keep us on our feet longer.  We returned and had devised a new plan of attack.  It was a pitched battle, but we managed to take down two of the Slaad.  It was a triumphant return to Spellgard, and our benefactor was greatly pleased.  I asked her to be sure to tell me if there were any Arcane Archers that she knew of, and decided to remain in Spellgard for some time, if for nothing else, some practice.

The entire first page of this forum is stickies. Maybe there needs to be a separate forum for important information, where only stickies live?

Development Journals and Discussion / The Path of Honor
« on: August 28, 2013, 04:27:41 pm »
The preparations proceed well. I have, through sale of my wares gained adventuring on Dregar, and through sale of the enchantments I have crafted, almost amassed enough true to purchase the plot of land I desire. I can only hope that my preparations attract the best of the trade as nothing less open the path I desire. I must prove my worth not only as a warrior and commander, but as a politician in this case; ensuring that every move advances my goal. Fortun shall be the greatest gift of all this patience and preparation. I shall make an offering to Deliar in this vein.

Fixed Bugs / Imbue Feat works on ranged weapons
« on: July 10, 2012, 12:15:50 pm »
Description: On a lark, I tried the [lore]Imbue[/lore] feat on Night's bow, and it adds the elemental damage properties to it the same as a melee weapon.  I am not sure if this is related to why enchantment rods worked on bows or if it is intentional, to bring it in line with Flame Weapon.

Location: Port Hempstead Outskirts, Great Forest

He watches as the ancestors fire coats his hand. Once alight his fiery palms melt the flesh of his cheeks and he unleashes a primal scream to the starry sky.  He plunges his hands in to the pit of loose earth and prostrates himself, gurgling his words.

Thank you for the sending your shadows from the world beyond. May they help me bring death to the axe, the fist, the dragon to Grand. All will fall before my strength which is fed by the strength of you who died, and those I kill.

He takes the herb of communing, puts it on the fire, and spends the night speaking to his lost trove through the smokes it produces.

Leringard Arms Inn and Tavern / Questions are asked...
« on: April 11, 2012, 11:04:08 am »
...by a rather dour elf, ashen, clad in black, of the transient, yet regular patrons of the Arms if they have heard of the Cat Witch of the Backbone Mountains.  To any interested in his queries, he succinctly tells them, "Beware.  Not all aid is helpful."

Development Journals and Discussion / Becoming Human
« on: April 08, 2012, 11:31:40 pm »
I will indulge this human, smug though he is.  How he won the heart of a Sun Elf is beyond my reasoning.  I must put that aside if I am to be successful in this gambit.

He has laid out a foundation for my education which will cover the various senses.  He began by showing me the applications of stage make-ups that can make my skin tone more of that outrageous pinky-orange of the common human.  We will also deal with the dialect of common I will use, the gait of my walk, and my ways of interacting with others.  It is quite comprehensive and I am curious to see how long it will take me to master the skills.

The Silver Buckle / Pygmalion
« on: April 08, 2012, 06:37:04 pm »
An elf clad in black enters the Buckle one evening, his cloak drawn close, his demeanor stand off-ish as many might expect.  He inquires at the bar after the Master of the House, and shortly thereafter, Andrew Reid himself greets the elf and shows him to the office.  They are sequestered inside for a few hours, and when they emerge, there is patches of grease paint on their clothes, and some to be seen on the elf's gray skin.

They part company and the elf finds a quiet corner by the fire and sits in thought.

« on: April 08, 2012, 01:24:26 pm »
Messages arrive at most communities regarding an adventuring company forming to combat a massing of forest giants in the Forest of Fog.  All interested are instructed to make their way to Orc's Watch and ask for the Morning Star at the inn.
