Smoldering Wizard's Old-School Gaming Forums

The book of options sounds neat, but monsters/adventures I have plenty of (including the original Tomb of the Iron God). I have the old S&W Complete ref screen from years ago, but it was not designed well as far as useful content (it is very sturdy, however, and makes a good screen if you clip your ...

[d6=1] Berthold wastes no time opening the door this time around. He can now see Salty and Schmidt fighting the ruby-eyed, fire-breathing skeleton in the center of the room.

Back to the other thread!

[Round #6 initiative 2d12=8,12 PCs have it!] Schmidt attacks with his mace [d20+1=10 MISS] but misses the skeleton. Salty stabs again at the skeleton [d20=19 HIT for d4=1 dmg] , his dagger taking a chip out of the skeleton's thigh. The skeleton [d6=5] attacks [d2=1 Salty d20+3=13 HIT for d6=1 dmg] ...

Has the skeleton been hit at all?

Not yet!

Berthold retreats north [2d6+2=9] , the creature watching him closely as Berthold moves out of sight. The creature does not pursue him. The corridor north twists east and then north again, coming to a door. Actions? Assuming Berthold wants to rejoin his companions, if he opens the door he will be wi...

[Round #5 initiative 2d12=9,2 skellie has it] The skeleton advances and [d6=1] breathes a fireball at [d2=2 Schmidt 3d6=11 save for half d20=10 FAIL] , burning the Cleric badly. Schmidt responds with his holy symbol [2d10=6 FAIL] , but the skeleton seems oblivious to Schmidt's power this time. Salt...

Looks like Twig turned out to be kindling instead!

At -10hp, more like charcoal!

Berthold stops and catches his breath. I mean you no harm, stranger. Call me Berthold. I appear to have been misled by those that would do me harm. He does not make a move to his weapon, although he is ready in case of treachery. [reaction 2d6=8 - uncertain] The creature responds, "There is nothing...

Berthold runs south down a twisty corridor, confronting a humanoid creature by a door, accompanied by a wolf on a chain. The creature challenges Berthold - "Halt or I'll run you through!" . [This may be enough to snap Berthold from his unnatural fear- d20=17, so yes, the fear spell is broken!] Bert...

[Round #4 initiative for altar melee - 2d12=8,7 skellie has it, for Salty/Schmidt 2d12=3,11 so Salty/Schmidt have it] Twig groans... [d20=11] , and dies unceremoniously by the altar! The skeleton [d6=5] attacks Heimer with his scimitar [d20+3=17 HIT for d6=6 dmg] , wounding him badly - he collapses...
