"Get out of there!" Matt turns to follow the goat through the window, and gets gored through the side of his face and neck, falling limp and spraying blood everywhere. Gran narrowed her eyes, wishing death on the foul beast as she slung another stone at it: 6+1+1=8 Marissa screamed "M...

OOC: I am the *worst* at mysteries. considering the middle house was a mimic, and the first was pretty empty save the devil's thorn, I'm guessing the corn husk dolls are the key. Maybe we can use the one for Rainbow to bring her back to life? Or at least put her soul to rest. I think I have an idea...

OOC: We *are* on the next-to-last house. Hope we aren't missing too many clues.

OOC: You've still got the guy lost in the woods - Morphoi, is it? He may outlive us all.

lol. I'm just waiting for achance to roll a crit or a fumble on the tables.

Luc recoiled at the grave stench billowing out of the room, but then remembered, "Hey, I've got some holy water". He loosened the stopper, said a quick prayer, and threw it (7+1=8)at the beast attacking Amalthia from behind the cover of the doorframe. Matt steps up and (15+1=16) cracks the...

OOC: So Matt took 4 damage? If so, he's dead (not sure what 2+2=4 means in this context. Free attack......are there attacks of opportunity in the rules somewhere, or did Matt just get what he deserved for turning his back on a monstet?)

Luc shoves his torch into the first animal's eyes (d20+1=8). Not sure what to roll for damage. Matt tries to disembowel it with his knife(d20+1=6) 3 dmg if it hits by some miracle. Marissa throws her empty (glass) flask at the animal's head (d20+1=5). All 3 Run throigh the doorway, Matt and Luc taki...

ooc: Rainbow was one of the first of my characters to die. A young teenage girl with stars in her eyes. Daughter of Byron and Nan.

OOC: Matt is still alive. He had 2hp, now has 1. Waiting for pre-init Fire move before I post. Gonna be doing some traveling, so if I take awhile, that's why.

Hmmm.....Then let me rephrase the question. Since both S&W and DCC are part of the OSR, would it be close to the original intent of whatever encounter we're dealing with to just use S&W monsters straight with DCC characters, or is there something I need to be aware of? I realize that balanc...

Matt prys (sp?) up a floorboard in the bedroom with one of the knives retrieved from the first kitchen. Luc holds Matt's torch for him so they can see down into the hole. Marissa stands back. Gran and Nan are in the main room, peering from the middle of the room to see what they can see.

Is there a conversion guide somewhere for Swords & Wizardry monsters to DCC? I've been looking for awhile now, but no luck yet.

Thanks

I guess Gran and Nan are still busy at the door. So my other 3 will check out and search the first bedroom.

Matt kicks the cornhusk doll as far as he can to the left, away from the cabin, and my 5 throw open the door and pile in. Nan keeps an eye in that direction, holding her torch ready (in case it comes back), guarding Gran as she scratches a Devil's Thorn in the door.

Have they shipped then? Has anyone received them yet? Do some FLGS have them in stock?

Wilderlands: Seen the original. I think it's one of the main sources for the OSR, at least the hexcrawl stuff. Lots to like (and tweak) in there. I've spent hours trying to tweak hexcrawls at various times. Somehow making random elements all hang together in some kind of over-arching meta-story. Gra...

And my 5 are leading the charge this time, with (doomed?) Matt leading. Per a previous post: "Gran grabs Nan by the arm, yells "There's nothing we can do for them! Run! To the next cabin!" and my 5 all run to the next cabin, Matt leading. Luc throws his lit torch on the roof of the ca...

Poor Murphoi has dashed upwards into the forest, and is currently wandering among the lonely trees.

Any chance he'll run into Shep, the border collie that ran off into the cornfield? Or at least Shep's desiccated remains?

OOC: Go Igor!

OOC: Correct me if I'm wrong, Raven, but the 4+8=12 isn't damage, is it? I read it as being a successful grab? In any case, he fails his Fort save, and takes 14 damage the next round, so yeah, with 5hp I'd say he's pretty obviously dead. I think all 3 are done for. IC: Byron screams in agony and die...

OOC: lol, I guess my 6 follow fire's team in Gran scratches the Thorn on the doorpost, if it's not already there.

OOC: No porch? so the door is a ways off the ground....

IC: Byron goes up and peers through the doorway, holding up his torch to see better.

OOC: Whoever wins/lives, Wizard. The chaotic randomness of wizardly magic looks really cool, and I'd like the chance to play through it. Get a feel for it and maybe DM some kind of crossover sometime. So I guess I'm paying close attention to my high-intelligence characters. Shawn, the guy that died ...
