Tarot Quiz

You are The Hierophant

Divine Wisdom. Manifestation. Explanation. Teaching.

All things relating to education, patience, help from superiors.The Hierophant is often considered to be a Guardian Angel.

The Hierophant’s purpose is to bring the spiritual down to Earth. Where the High Priestess between her two pillars deals with realms beyond this Earth, the Hierophant (or High Priest) deals with worldly problems. He is well suited to do this because he strives to create harmony and peace in the midst of a crisis. The Hierophant’s only problem is that he can be stubborn and hidebound. At his best, he is wise and soothing, at his worst, he is an unbending traditionalist.

Goodies and games

A cool blog, with a very specific purpose: Landon Darkwood’s Gamehacks is all about tweaking games to fit a group perfectly.

D&D:
Good advice about combat among NPCs.
Draconians: WotC article and ready to use.
The Marshal class. Cool class– very much a battle field commander. An alternative to the Bard in the party buffing role.
For RPGA: A very clear explanation of EV, CoH, and more. Also: recording the level bump in your adventure journal.

RPG tools, useful across games.

Interesting, humorous sounding board game: War on Terror and another interesting sounding Board Game: Dos Rios.

January 12th: Next Game

We got back into our campaign with a bang, executing an insanely optimistic “scry and fry” on a building full of Paladins of Tyranny, after returning to the Dragon Coast and our precocious king who would be a mage.

We’re on for next Friday, unless you’ll have a problem with making it. If you have any problem, just let us know.

Happy 2007

I had a great 2006, and enjoyed the beginning of 2007. While the span from Christmas til yesterday was exhausting, it was great to see everyone, play a few games, and enjoy the presence of family. I’m a really lucky guy, you know?

Happy 2007 to everyone!

Holiday Break

We’re off for the holidays– have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. We’re scheduled to resume the evening of Friday, January 5th.

The Game Log should be updated soon– short form: the Queen is crowned, we were lauded… but Despater left us a note saying “You’ve won a battle, not the war.”
