Journal of Helmuth in Dragonspear I have finished the Prologue and both Valerie and Sirene have left. I don't know how permanent that is. I'd be disappointed to lose Val after nursing her into becoming a very good sorcerer. If I don't get her back, in future I'll have my own sorcerer in the...

Journal of Helmuth We continue progressing down the tower. Mostly straightforward apart from the Dwarven Doom Guards. Usually I leave them be, but I deemed the party powerful enough to take them on. Buffed activated dead meant that we had a buffer in front of us. Used a lot of Wand of the...

I've really enjoyed reading your write-ups. Thank you! :love:

Coanan is no more? He is deceased? He is a dead barbarian? :eek: If so, very sad. Meanwhile the Helmuth party fought the warders and prevailed, though they were badly hurt in the process.

Journal of Helmuth Currently looking for Otho's nephew. We dropped off Jet' Laya and recruited Fergill Trollslayer, a Berserker Dwarf who was surrounded by swarms of Duerger. We prevailed, though we did have to flee, heal ourselves and return. The loot consisted of vast amounts of +1 axes...

Journal of Helmuth On arrival at the FAI we met up with Jet' Laya and left Morwen there. A shame as she had become a useful member of the party. However it was Jet' Layas sister that we were rescuing. We spent a lot of gold equipping Jet, some of which seems to have been qasted as we have...

Journal of Helmuth In Tazok's tent, I used a potion of firebreath to kill three of the main enemies. Three with one potion is quite effective! I then fought Hakt in melee after taking a green potion to cure me of poison. While I was fighting him the rest of the party entered and that was battle...

Journal of Helmuth We killed the assassins at the bandit camp using web + AoE spells, then killed an ogre with a belt fetish using command and missiles, then all the bandits nearby with Fireballs. Then went to Beregost and killed Tranzig using melee combined with magic missiles. Returned to the...

Understandable. I have the same problem.

He has indeed. A very skilled writer. It's quite time consuming writing like that.

We'd also be interested in hearing about your failed runs. It's not all about winning!! Whilst Helmuth looks as if he may survive at least as far as Dragonspear, I have been thinking about my next run and am thinking of a human cleric of Tyr whose desire was to be a paladin, but whose charisma...

Journal of Helmuth The Nashkel mines were cleared and Xan's quest was finished, after which we left him at the FAI. Then Nimbul was killed. No problems there. We found Borda, the one who tried to make Brage look like a murderer. Due to his magical resistance and his fear spell, he...

Journal of Helmuth WE helped Charlestonian and Brage. Then the temple messenger instructed us what to do next. That was to deal with Mutamin, the basilisks, and the medusae. Next we raided the cave near the sirines, after which the temple messenger returned and we killed the Beregost...

I sometimes get the problem of losing interest if I don't role-play the character. I'm beginning to think that role-playing is easier for smaller parties that have a lot in common. For that reason, I'm thinking of having a Tempus-Worshipping party if my current run comes to an end: - Cleric of...

In the end I decided to start my Helmuth game again, avoiding as much experience as possible once we (Helmuth and Fergie) left Gorion's ambush. We made it to Nashkel whereupon Valerie joined us. She has six times as much experience as me! I gave her a sling +1 and we are now heading up North...

Journal of Helmuth We entered the mine. At first the enemies there were no problem to us as there were only kobolds. Then there were some Duerger. We needed web plus AoE spells for them, and the same for Mulahey and some female assassins outside. Valerie is becoming a useful member of the...

Journal of Helmuth We killed sirines using AoE wands, necklaces. We then went to the basilisk area and killed the adventurers before taking on basilisks and medusae using the green scroll. Heading south we killed more assassins. By killing Borda, we proved the innocence of Brage...

That's the way to do it. :) With scenery like that the experience is even better. I have a good view from my computer too. Birds come within a couple of yards of me. Sparrowss, great tits, pigeons, and the occasional greenfinch. :)

Journal of Helmuth I can't believe how little is needed to become a hero. We've only done what any decent person would do. We calmed Marl, took a tome to Firebead and headed south where we killed a couple of ogrillon. We have killed rather a lot of hobgoblins, and that could make us heroes in...

Journal of Helmuth As can be seen, neither of us is a goody, goody. I am a devout follower of Helm, and am neither Good nor Evil. My attribute roll was actually made when I had a different set-up which allowed dwarves to be paladins. To allow that, the charisma of dwarves was no longer...
