We practically saved the existence of Middenhiem, as in the place wouldn’t exist, as we know it, if it wasn’t for us. Naturally, the Graf can’t afford an actual monetary reward. What we did get…was knighted. OK, so I might be a little sarcastic about our lack of money for saving the Graf’s behind, but I am rather impressed that we got to become Knights Panther. Granted, we did have to spend a week in isolation in the church of…

“Graffling with Danger” Also appearing in in the basement was Ehrlich’s niece, Rhya. The ordeal of being kidnapped had left her very tired, though, and Wilhelm lulled her to sleep. “Children’s Parade co-opted by pedovores! Raid on warehouse captures sinister cult! Sweetrolls turned sour! Pictures for the illiterate – not for viewing by those under 16. Must show ID!” There was treasure, both magic and mundane. Finally, there were incriminating letters between “The Big Bad Wolf” and the courtier Emmanuelle….
“A Sworded Affair” Othmar once again received a love letter from the ironmonger’s wife. It seems this city is all about secret trysts. Definitely secrets. The real trouble came at the Children’s Parade. The replacement flutist led the children around town, while others, including said ironmonger, handed out treats and foodstuffs. It turns out the treats were drugged, and the flutist was leading the children to their doom! Othmar led as many of the children as he could away from…
I have to admit, at first I wrote this adventure off. I was looking for something set a bit more southern Empire, and this adventure takes place near Marienburg. I slipped it back into the box and promptly ignored it until a couple months later when I was looking for something to read. It wouldn’t have hurt my game to pick this up and read it earlier. I also thought the small village setting might not have enough challenges for…
Alright, just for the fun of it, here is the list of Warhammer books/novelettes/digital shorts I know I have read. The Burning Shore by Robert Earl Wild Kingdoms by Robert Earl Haute Cuisine by Robert Earl The Ambassador by Graham McNeill Ursun’s Teeth by Graham McNeill Honour of the Grave by Robin D. Laws Sacred Flesh by Robin D. Laws Liar’s Peak by Robin D. Laws Valnir’s Bane by Nathan Long The Broken Lance by Nathan Long Blood Bowl by…
I’m thinking about a rogue as my next D&D character. It seems something always happens to my rogues, and I never get to play through the entire storyline I want. So I’m going to keep trying. My ideal rogue is of the assassin type. I wanted to get some cool ideas from others, so I sourced a couple social networks. Any subclass/kit/multi or dual class/etc. counts. Here are some ideas: From NPC “Rashgalliber the Mage Most Marvellous” was his name….
Our guide says we’re about 3 days out from the Duergar stronghold. Soon we’ll have to stop focusing on surviving obstacles and start thinking seriously about the dwarves. For tonight’s precautions, Darian cast spells to increase our strength before he went to sleep. It seems a waste that we didn’t need them, but I’m happy regardless. Now that we’re only a couple days from the stronghold, and due to the fact that Braden keeps himself invisible as much as possible,…
After another full day, we headed back toward The Templar’s Arms. A gathering around a puppet show caught our attention. The stage was dark, but we could clearly see a puppet Sparsom arguing with a puppet Goebbels. Many of the people watching wore red hats. They were trying to get the rest of the crowd agitated. I managed to get in good with the crowd with a simple statement that I didn’t like to pay taxes. The random guy I…
I was looking for a starter adventure to run before The Gathering Storm and this practically fell in my lap. It’s billed as an adventure, but there are a number of suggestions on how to turn it into a campaign. It has the same prerequisite as The Gathering Storm, so I won’t be using it as a starter adventure. Also, it’s far more socially driven than I’m currently comfortable GMing. The party’s sole goal is to be invited to a masquerade ball,…
