[Day 47 Continued] 11PM. I finally left the hills to return to my Keep; by way of Trademeet, first. Not only do I expect a reward for killing those druids from a few days ago, some more trade caravans should have reached the town by now. Even though I may possibly have the key to a dragon...

[Day 45 Continued] 10AM. In the Windspear Hills, I find a group of Ogres--well, at least three--and some other monsters. We killed them handily, but somehow they seemed to transform back to human knights upon death. Some fool observer hiding and watching the fight seems to think I was tricked...

Hi! Yeah it's RP, I know where they are. I just want to come up with in-character, justifiable reasons why he would collect the individual components. Too metagamey for me to just go to points on the map when I have 0 in-game indication I'm supposed to go there. On the other hand, as a player I...

Thank you for the feedback! Yeah I generally play him with a moderate amount of intelligence. He basically just wants to be in charge, in power, nothing out of his control, nothing threatening him. His primary means of accomplishing goals is just to intimidate and kill people. Straightforward...

[Day 43 Continued] 7PM. I arrived in the evening and entered a melee between some guards and some homicidal woodland creatures. The militia captain then shouted at me to begone, accused me of banditry, and raised their weapons against me! This fight came quick, but we easily slew the guards we...

[Day 38 Continued] 12PM. As we entered the dark forest of the temple ruins, I hunted down a werewolf Anath, who spoke about a Shade Lord who recently took up residence to the east. Hmm, looks like I'll have to investigate. Knowing the murderous and animalistic nature of werewolves firsthand, I...

Now that I think about it, I probably won't get back to the Underdark. My PC is going to focus on Shadow temple, Windspear, Trademeet in the near future...the areas surrounding his stronghold. It's likely at some point during all of this, I'll get brought back to Athkatla at some point. When...

At the time, I was much more concerned with finding Irenicus, and the Drow didn't really wrong me in any way, so I just wanted to grab the eggs and see if I could catch up with Irenicus. It's likely I'll return to the Underdark/Ust Natha, either looking for "Irenicus allies" or just to treat is...

10PM. I easily dispatched of some mind flayers outside the city and rescued some Drow princess named Phaere. She is daughter to Ardulace--the "matron mother"--one who would seem to know about dealing with Irenicus. When we returned to Ust Natha, it looked like my next mission for Phaere and...

[Day 34 Continued] 5AM. After killing some Mind Flayers that were lurking around a corner, I found some duergar merchants. I got a lead very quickly--looks like Irenicus and Bodhi went to the Drow city, wherever that is. Good enough. I've killed my share of Drow before, so I have no fear...

Throne of Bhaal Recap In my newly discovered Pocket Plane, I summoned both Imoen and Nalia. Imoen to give a portion of her soul to a trapped Sarevok, and Nalia to stay put here so as not to meddle with my estate in Amn while I’m gone. I recruited Sarevok, and ordered him to begin to study...

Shadows of Amn Recap After escaping Irenicus's dungeon with Jaheira and Minsc, I soon rescued Viconia from a mob and replaced Jaheira with her. I looked to get work from Renal Bloodscalp and the Shadow Thieves, but I almost immediatley decided to kill Mae'Var and all of his lieutenants after...

Siege of Dragonspear Recap Was surprised to see Imoen had returned to Baldur's Gate to look to gain my favor. I hadn't seen her since she abandoned me in Nashkel about 3-4 months ago. Furious that an attempt was made on my life (and further enraged that Ophyllis lost my fortune in gold), I...

Baldur's Gate 1/Tales of the Sword Coast Recap Eventually we visited Ulgoth's Beard and were teleported to a magical ice island prison by Shandalar--I had killed his daughter-mages very recently. We found his cloak and got ourselves back. Heard about Balduran's Isle from Mendas. Thought it was...

Hello, So I wanted my own bulleted-out recap of the playthough, really to make it easier for myself when I compare and contrast to other playthroughs, just spelling out the major events and the major quests I took on. It should go in the beginning but it will exceed the character limit, so it...

@Urdnot_Wrex You make very good points, and that's probably logic I will use at some point. In this circumstance, I think any hesitancy from Imoen would have been met with a "I don't care if you're worried. I just SAVED you, I said DISARM IT" from the PC, haha. It's a wonder I didn't send Nalia...

I know...it pains me to have to sacrifice one thief everytime, but I feel like I have to let it happen from a not-metagaming perspective. It really hurts when I have no cleric and no resurrection rod or scrolls. But that is exceedingly rare.

[Day 33] 9AM. Having battled through the first level of the Asylum, I had been comfortable enough in our domination of the dungeon thus far to rest overnight--we were out of spells, both healing and arcane, and this would give me a chance to resurrect my third mage Imoen. 1PM. I finally...

[Day 23 Continued] 12PM. With my Keep in order, I considered the surrounding lands: Trademeet was a large settlement to the east, I haven't paid it a visit yet. It's only half a day's journey away, so very close to my lands and holdings. There are also temple ruins to the east, where villagers...

TV characters played by celebrities, rather than celebrities, so a bit askew of the topic, BUT: Speaking of Dan Harmon...there are actually two whole episodes of Community where the characters play D&D for the entire episode. Season 2 Episode 14 "Advanced Dungeons & Dragons" (not on streaming...
