Continue reading →: Gabrella: Update 1
Our trip from Candlekeep was the stuff of nightmares. As dusk approached, a large armored warrior in company with a couple of ogres and ruffians appeared in front of us. Gorion told me to run and I heard the large man say something about “only wanting me”. What?! I heard…

Gabrella has lived a safe and comfortable life. She is the much loved daughter of the great mage and sage Gorion (yeah, yeah, she knows she’s adopted). Her life has literally been sheltered. She knows this. Gabrella, Gabby, is not stupid. And as it turns out she loves reading and…

The last act of this game takes the team from Lower Dorn’s Deep back to Easthaven. Let’s take a quick look at the fully mature group. ***** Epilogue Turpin and his team have the simplest sort of epilogue. The Daughters of the North would remain in the north. Turpin would…

Continue reading →: Turpin: Update 3
This week the team completed both expansions, Heart of Winter and Trial of the Luremaster. They’re making a fast pace through the game, and have grown to be pretty fearsomely capable. We’re setting up for the endgame, just Lower Dorn’s Deep and the return to Easthaven. Funny thing, for those…

Another big chunk of IWD was wrapped up this time. From the return from Dragon’s Eye through Severed Hand to Upper Dorn’s Deep we got a lot done. That includes content from all the Lava mods I have installed. I finished up with the team being transported off to Lonelywood.…

We had some time celebrating with the elves after saving saving their city, and my soul. Irenicus had been the monster of my nightmares, sometimes really in my nightmares, for a few months. That was some spirit thing in the witch’s swamp. I would laugh, but the thing had real…

Continue reading →: Jill: Update 13
This covers the end part of Shadows of Amn. I did “Call of the Lost Goddess” mod, Watcher’s Keep and then the end game of Suldanesslar and the Abyss. I feel like I’m a little burned out on narratives, but we can still take a look at the team. *****…

Continue reading →: Jill: Update 12
This will be a simple update. I was crazy busy in the last week and did very little gaming. Jill’s team finished the “Bloodied Stings of Barovia” and the Fighter Stronghold Quest… and *just” started “Call of the Lost Goddess”. So really, not much. I expect I’ll finish SoA this…




Yeah I like the MAI renderer, although for some of the reasons you mention I don’t *love* it! But then…
