One of the few advantages to being in Atlanta for a week is that I can pop in for the gaming session and beat up some kobold zombies. What is the word in Draconic for "Braaaaiiiinnnz..."?

I used one of surrdave's characters, one who is on track to be a Radiant Servant of Pelor, who is supposed to do good deeds like zap undead and heal people, but quietly, as those with strength need not show it.

A hard thing to establish personality with so I just sort of played off the other characters in the group, responding with Pelor's words of wisdom when appropriate and insisting on hidden strength in circumstances where parlay was more appropriate than swordplay.

It was pretty cool playing 1st level characters again and having to husband spells - especially since the module autographedcat was running had sort of a built-in deadline (a disease that chopped our Constitutions to ribbons), meaning we couldn't just rest for a day between each fight.

To immortalize the occasion, we took a picture of the group for posterity. And so, without further ado, I give you...

The Defensive Perimeter!



The Defensive Perimeter forms to study an oddly attractive gem of 20 facets...
Standing L-to-R: surrdave, autographedcat, mrjaimie, Don WINOLJ. Seated: moi.
