D&D week 3

October 15th, 2008 Leave a comment Go to comments

This week:

I was nearly brained several times by party members with quarterstaffs. For a while I thought it was all coming at just me, but then the Elf nearly got axed in the nards, so there you have it.

Two party members attempted to set an entire passageway ablaze with a wall of flame to incinerate our enemies. They succeeded in setting a third the passageway on fire in a thin line to a height of about six inches.

The element of surprise gone, we charged into a chamber that we thought had a few skeletons inside, only to find that… well, you know that scene at the end of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid? Yeah, it was that, but with undead instead of Bolivians.

In the course of the battle, our hireling set himself on fire. It’s not D&D night unless someone’s on fire.

Things took a bit of a turn for the worse when my Dwarf was enchanted by a kobold necromancer and started fighting against the party. Sorry, guys.

In the end, though, we defeated the bad guys and earned enough experience to level. I got shoved down a flight of stairs for some heavy damage, and our rogue came within one point of passing out, but nobody died, so I’ll call it a success. So far, so good!

    AND you made it past your bedtime! I’m assuming from the lack of complain in the post that you woke up just fine (of course, there is that thing they say about the word ‘assume’)

    Oh, don’t forget the crit I got on curb stomping the skeleton’s head…and not Torkal’s face.

    Good one! Yes, I was expecting to see treadmarks on poor Torkal. Chalk up another win!

    I woke up just fine – “I overslept after playing D&D until after 1am” isn’t a valid excuse to not get your daughter to school.

    However, I also realized I wasn’t going to make it through the day, so I came back home and went back to sleep. I woke up about noon and I feel GREAT!

    Which edition are you playing? I was assuming 4th, but doesn’t quite sound like it.

    These D&D missives have been bringing back such MEMORIES…the time I died really hard, rolled for reincarnation and came back as a troll…with a 20 charisma. Boy did I have fun with that character. The time the “Acme Magic Items” truck rolled up and we all bought spells that had Looney Tunes-like results. I could go on…and on….and on.

    It’s 3.5. I’m not up on all the subrules and such. Anything past 2nd edition is “newfangled” to me!
