Intensive Care in Barakus

feeds@yuku.com (PJBlake) — Wed, 01 Aug 2007 14:11:56 PST

I'm running Barakus with my own take on the low XP advancement which is to say the party will level up when I want them to. They've played 8 sessions so far (about 5 hours per session) and are still level one! Anyway, a side effect of this is that I hav...

Barakus - meomwt style!

We started our new LCoB campaign last Thursday. We were a player down, but plus one, as the guy we'd had problems with came back, sorted out one or two points, so we relented. Player roster (from memory): Moonblade (Half-Elf druid 1) with Dave the Wolf (a...
