War Journal -Final Entry

What is this, I can’t believe this. I Sir Ritter von Wünde Knight of the third order have been slain. The day started out inauspiciously enough. We were recuperating from a rather strenuous altercation with a Manticore after which we regrouped in his nest. We later sent Callon out in a scouting mission. After two days we went to rejoin him but he was nowhere to be found. After a few educational electrical jolts from the large brass front door we made our way through a cramped Kobold side door until we brought before the local authority. After Nevin gave some of the correspondence to the individuals in question. (A stone giant, a kobold spellcaster and a young adult copper dragon.) we were told to wait briefly while the spoke among themselves,

After a brief stay in their guest rooms we spoke again with the copper dragon. We learned of a small dissident movement among the kobold miners who have barricaded themselves in the mine with the young of the copper dragon. We agreed to help, after making our way through the portal we were face to stone with a large earth elemental. It was a good fight until it killed me then I was less happy with the way the fight was unfolding. In these final moments of life Id like to thank my cohorts for proving to be great and trusted companions and I wish you well in your future endeavors.

-Ritter von Wünde

Yeah, I'm up a level (I think), I'm pretty sure I needed 1250.

3rd level spell thief plus 1 level adjustment = ECL 4. Or have I missed yet another aspect of level adjustment?

nope, that'll do it. Evile™ DM's memory is getting flaky. i blame lack of sleep.

This makes sense because you have truly only been one session behind the rest of us for level increase.

Ritter died?

I hope Kalon fairs a little better.

When do you (Drew) want to do a make-up session?

I hope that there was a good final ceremony for the lad. Bummer . . . Kalon will miss him.

before i leave for seattle (tho ideally after [info]dudular makes his new character, so we can tie the new guy in with what Kalon's doing) - how free are you these days?

I am free any evening this week.

I hope that I will be able to catch up on EXP . . . I am scared.

Yes . . . It sounds good. Is 8:00 too late? Things may go faster for the one-on-one than the big group. I want to be here to help Santwana put Sajan to sleep, and I should be able to get your place by 8:00 while doing that.

The other alternative is to have you come here earlier, but then you are little hooped for travelling back.

I, personally, think it is easier for me to go to your place since I don't have to work the next day.

sure it is. i believe you.
8:00 is doable, 8:30 might be pushing things. later afternoon could work for me too - i'm outta here by 2pm usually...

How does this sound?

I pick you up at work tommorrow at 2:00. We come back to my place and play. After Kalon survives (note how I phrased this), we will pick up Sajan at the day home. After that, we (that includes you and the entire C-S family)can go out for dinner. After dinner, I can drop you off at home.

If this does not work for you . . . I am certain we can work something out.

requires me to transport a fair amount of game equipment with me to work, ergo i don't think this precise scenario can work.
the going out for dinner part sounds great, tho.

Let's figure something out via phone.

I'll call you later tonight.

If our DM hadn't been feeling magnanimous (or something), Djimm would have died on the first roll of the game. A nasty electrical trap "killed" Djimm "dead" in one shot. Happily, it turns out Djimm was just stunned by the close call. The bolt of lightning passed to the side of him.

Kalon went on ahead. We haven't found him. We fear for his safety.

yeah, killing someone at the start of a session just feels worng, somehow. in the middle of a mighty combat, is much nobler.

Kalon went on ahead. We haven't found him. We fear for his safety.
quiet, you! [info]joncs doesn't know about this yet!

After what I am hearing - I fear for his safety too. Arrg . . .

with regards to rolling a new character, the precedent from the Falon/Djimm transition suggests:
  • your new guy will be level 4
  • rolling stats will happen in my presence at a mutually convenient time - you'll roll three sets of stats, and select your favourite one

as you're thinking about character concepts, consider the interaction of your phyle choice with everything else - certain races and classes make more sense in certain phyles. (and, if you're thinking about prestige classes, there are restrictions on phyle membership for durn near all of them.) you'll probably want to reread the info on phyles on our campaign website, and if you're thinking of using anything that's not in the Player's Handbook, you'll likely want to look at the notes on using non-core books as well.
