Congrats on a well-run campaign.

The sort of things that I did was to lure Greywolf to the mines so the guards killed him. Lure the hobgoblins to the gates of the FAI so they got killed by the guards there, thus getting Joia's ring. In the mines using Algernon's cloak to charm Mulahey's summoned monsters and letting them kill...

Journal of Edwin Odesseiron II My parents were so content with their first son Edwin that when he left home, they missed him so much that they chose to have another son -me. They even gave me the same name, and it looks as if I may well follow the same path. I was fortunate enough to have...

It's probably the close calls that made it more enjoyable. :) Meanwhile Jarlaxle and party have dealt with the warders. Traps killed two of them and summoned skeletons helped with the others. We returned to ground level to rest. My bag of holding is getting full. I'll have to do quite a lot of...

Journal of Jarlaxle The Ice Island wasn't a challenge. Neither were the upper floors of Durlag's. Then the hasted doppelgangers targeted Baeloth and he didn't have the speed to get away. Had to return to the temple to raise him. As the saying goes: "I'll be back!"

Can I recommend to you trying a character who dislikes getting blood on his hands. You have to be quite innovative, but it's fun.

Does that mean that they are VERY overpowered?

Journal of Jarlaxle It was a tough battle against the skeleton warriors below Candlekeep! It taught me to send skeleton warriors ahead against such enemies. So glad that Artemis survived. It would have been a tragedy not to have had a thief in this area. The next battle against similar...

Journal of Jarlaxle We finished the NToSC quests and have now cleared the top floor of the Iron Throne. We sold surplus equipment and now have over 100,000gp. We will spend it when our reputation is higher. @Borco I too have had a few bugs. One was Firthgill Trollslayer not being able to...

Journal of Jarlaxle Claris was of no use in finding the baby. We have killed the Vampiress as well as Lord Daerthmac by using skeleton warriors. We will have to keep looking. I knew from previous runs that he teleports away when he sees the party. I therefore played so that he didn't see us...

@Finarfin Completely different tactics to my game, but equally effective. :) I think that due to differing mods that our paths will diverge. Journal of Jarlaxle We left Viconia at the FAI and picked up Jet'Laya. Upon seeking her sister, I was level drained by a shadow. We tried sleeping and a...

Jarlaxle fought wyverns galore, killing nine large enough to have tails, some in the cave, but mostly in transit. At the cave, I set up an ambush of skeletons for them as they followed me out, thus avoiding injury to party members. The priest at the temple gave us a huge reward for one of them...

@Finarfin Some battle! :)

I've never had a katana, wakizashi or ninjato break on me. Journal of Jarlaxle I beat the occupants of the Bandit Tent single handed and have arrived with my party at the Friendly Arms Inn. The potion of Fire Breath was sufficient to kill three of them and the hobgoblin archer was easy in...

@Borco Protagonist does get struck by lightning in my runs. Perhaps you had weather switched off? In my games it has usually when I've gone for a coffee and forgotten to pause the game when this happens!! @Alesia_BH @Borco I do like the descriptions of your runs. :) It's the first time that I...

Journal of Jarlaxle Xan helped some Lady Ogres to lose weight. :) Oublek died a hero attempting to save a boy. Afterwards we DID save him. Xan later insisted that we rescue some slaves. I was a bit ambivalent about doing so as taking advantage of them had its positive side. We bade him...

I only get to eat dal bhat when we go on holiday. I was on Madeira last year and was able to use my Nepali language as a lot of the waiters/waitresses were Nepali. There were two Nepali restaurants, one that sold high class food, whilst the other was more like the food that I ate in Nepal. I...

I had never heard of TV the group. Sorry, I didn't listen to the music which would probably have enlightened me. I'm afraid my musical tastes are rather dated. 50s and 60s and a bit in the 70s, though I do like Katy Perry.

Journal of Jarlaxle. We have entered the Cloakwood Mines and were able to save Miner Beldin by using a skull trap. (Sadly no reward for doing so. :() Further in we came across assassins. One with a light crossbow +1 and poisonous bolts made great inroads into our stock of potions. Clearly we...

When we lived in Nepal in the eighties, we "missed out" on TV for three years. Actually it wasn't the TV that we "missed out" on. It was no electricity (therefore no Baldur's Gate), water in the taps (where we had them) not being safe to drink, only having a choice of dal with rice or rice...
