'Okay, so we need to distract those miners. I have the Ghost Sound spell. I could make an illusory sound sort of there-ish to draw their attention.' 'Uh, Xanthia, that's only about five feet away from where we are. We could just say, "Hey, miners! Look at us over here!" and save a you spell […]
It's a common problem: how do you sneak up on a guard? It gets more difficult when he has his back up against a cliff, so you can't approach him from behind.

If you are a human female wearing no armour, carrying no weapon, and just happen to be fluent in Low Common, it is not advisable to stroll up to some hungry, monstrous humanoid Gnolls who are preparing dinner to say 'hello' in a cheery voice.

Well, we were not confronted as much as I myself was confronted. I was accused of meddling […]
Faust grew up the son of a Paladin. Intrigued by the divine power his father could evoke Faust started to follow in his father's footsteps, trying to learn how to evoke the same powers of protection and defence. When coming of age, Faust saw his first battle; although only a skirmish, he was repelled yet […]
