Rogo Bramblefoot

I have recently joined a 2nd Edition Play-by-post Campaign as a player. The campaign I run uses 3.5e rules so there was a bit of an adjustment - at least as far as character creation went but when we got into our first fight, everything came rushing right back. Anyway, this is my character.

Background: Rogo was born in Secomber to a family of farmers. He decided at a young age that he did not want to follow his two older brothers (Marco and Togo) into the family business. He met and befriended another young halfling named Terriac and the pair's antics drew the attention of the local Thieves Guild. He experienced a religious awakening in the middle of a heist gone wrong and, through blind luck and perhaps some divine intervention, managed to escape without a criminal record and his skin more-or-less intact. He now mostly serves as a healer for injured thieves and scout for the Guild. He leaves a single red checker at the site of successful burglaries and is known as "The Red Checker" in some circles.

In 1255 DR, he joined an adventuring band calling its the "Sons of Secomber". The Sons were embroiled in a conflict with the Cult of the Dragon and had come into possession of an artifact they wished to destroy.

Cedron and Raven - Into the Marsh

08 Newkolt 349 AC The frog lets out a slow ribbit followed by a "One moment" and vanishes from view. A few seconds later the drawbridge begins to rattle open. The bullywug bows to Raven and Cedron then pauses and turns his head to focus one of his large eyes on the swordsman. "Well played, Majesty. Zee Sugar Plum Fairy may be on zee outs with zee River King for stopping zee war with Riverbend but zee Witchlight Monarch has done no such theeng." This area inside of the inner bailey is much quieter, with many gray-liveried servants moving about on matters of varying importance. A large pool takes up most of the chamber, leaving only a narrow walkway around the perimeter. A stairway descends into the pool on its south side but it is guarded by some kind of ogre covered in green scales with gill slits showing on either side of its neck. The frog motions with one webbed hand and the merrow steps aside. As the pair heads down the stairs into the Court, they pass throug...

Silvanost - Five of Seven

  09-14 Newkolt 349 AC AT SUMMERWALKER'S WAREHOUSE Grotto looks up from his cookbook and says to Shadow, "Your little Kender friend would have loved these dishes. This book seems to be written towards a halfling's pallet. If you are still hungry, I think I have the ingredients here and there to make this dish." Grotto says swinging the book around and pointing to a simple yet filling recipe. Grotto then walks a quick round of the hospital checking the wounded as he gathers various herbs he had his students obtain. He comes back to the corner where he has set up the makeshift bedroom where he and Shadow were reading. Grotto pulls out his alchemy lab to use as a impromptu kitchen. He makes him and Shadow a nice but filling vegetarian vegetable stew. As he is cooking he says to Shadow, "Maybe with your magic, we can communicate with that disem bodied voice from the war god's temple? Maybe find clues there? We will see what Lorraine thinks . Also, some in the co...

Max Headroom

Image
On this day in 1987, two Chicago-based television stations had their signals hijacked by person or persons unknown.  The first  event was stopped quickly but the second lasted a bit longer.  More than 30 years later, no suspects have ever been identified. For those of you who have been reading my stuff for awhile, you know that I am planning on having my party eventually reach Earth .  I have plotted out some unusual adventures and some strange NPCs that I think it would be cool to have them encounter (plus I just like making weird characters) and was thinking that crossing paths with Max and his "IRL" counterpart Edison could make for an interesting story. Incorporating Max into a D&D campaign... This does present a bit of a conundrum since Max is undeniably based on futuristic technology.  Then again, Dungeons & Dragons has a long history of sci-fi crossovers so perhaps the next time you find yourself running " Expedition to the Barrier Pea...

The West Canyon Campaign

The West Canyon Chronicles Last spring, while working on a way to incorporate Boot Hill into my play-by-post fantasy campaign, I started bouncing story ideas around for a crossover.   I was also looking at tourist-y things to do with my kids when they came out to visit for the summer and I learned that the area I was living in was rife with possibilities for a mixed supernatural and historically-themed Wild West campaign with mystery and adventure around every bend.   I used the basic geography of the region (Spanish Fork Canyon) as the basis for the setting, converted the town of Glister into Cactus Brush, and used the old Boot Hill modules Mad Mesa, Ballots and Bullets, and Burned Bush Wells as a starting point.   As I began to write, ideas literally flowed through me.   I wanted more than the standard Western setting that Boot Hill reflected and began incorporating horror elements with a little bit of Deadlands and Fistful of Zombies thro...

Readers' Poll: Choose Your Own Rescue Mission

Image
I have been bouncing two ideas around for some time now as one of the potential adventures my players will undertake once they make it to Earth-218 .   In the plot I have roughed out in my head, their first appearance will draw a great deal of media attention and in turn, the government will step in to do what it can to help them return home (in exchange for certain services that will be negotiated when the time comes).   A portal will be built that should allow the adventurers to return to their own world .   This machine would be located deep within Cheyenne Mountain for security reasons so the party will come into contact with many personnel from the military. In version #1 of this story, General George Hammond, USAF and commander of Stargate Command is Dr. John Hammond’s cousin’s son.   When the events on Isla Nublar take a turn for the worse, John places a phone call to his family member to help bail him out of a jam.   The general cannot send th...
