Death will be permanent? No revivals or trips to the afterlife to recover souls?

No, resurrection can happen. But it won't in this battle. This is for the "soul" of the land.

I just played tonight. It's a massive war where we need to make odd decisions. For example, some dorky young red dragon came out of a portal and I decided to Holy Word him back to his plane of existence.

I'm also flying around on a six-legged flying horse. Every giant is throwing boulders at me like I'm a fucking pinata. I kept telling the ref, "I fly higher." He's like, nope, not fast enough, more incoming boulders. And all the bad folks are targeting me for some odd reason even though the other guy is the super hero critical guy. Actually, two other guys are the super heroes. I have no idea why I am being constantly targeted.

I have no idea why I am being constantly targeted.

Are you the brains of the team? It could be to handicap the entire group.

Good call. I'm the priest (first aid kit in 2nd edition) with a 22 wisdom. In real life, I solve almost all the refs puzzles he throws at us. (The ref does not allow us to speak if we aren't there or close by. -- which is of course violated because I get drunk during the game and cannot help myself, haha)

Interesting take. But the ref isn't supposed to do that, and he abides by that. The ref did tell me the enemy knows all my special powers, so ...

I'll let you know at the end of this campaign (this is the final adventure -- of over ten years in real life). I must know why every monster and his mom is targeting me.

That sucks whats the campaign?

Ten year+ campaign. I am a Viking Priest where Ragnarok already occured. So I go this stupid crazy God that is a mixture of Odin, Thor, Loki, Sith, etc. ... in other words, he is completely nuts! LOL

That's just for my pantheon. The World is being taken over by some arrogant greasy dego Romanish god. Tomorrow, we must stop him. It is impossible, but so be it. I spent ten literal years of my life for this moment.

See what happens.

The GM Killed all our 3.5 year old characters in ONE NIGHT!!!!

It was the last night we ever played , or would play, we graduated high school and all of us were off to different universities in ONE WEEK!

It was sad and traumatic, it was deliberate, it was the most memorable and exciting night of our group.

<SNIFF>

We all went on to play in college with new friends.

My first dead rolled a 99 out of 100 in front of everyone for telepathic Psionic Powers!!!. I never got to develop or use them properly. So unfair.

Some of those AD&D players play to this day now!!!! (their own universe and lore). One I talked to on phone just 3 weeks ago.

AD&D is FOREVER!

Sorry about the death of your character.

I didn't die. Under stress of being a rules lawyer, I did have to lash out and say, "I'm trying to keep my character alive, dickhead." It was tense. I will eventually die soon, I ... think. E: One character need to use his single innate wish to save the party. I used all my major spells. The war battle is like only 1/3 through. We are all dead.

One party I did play with this ref a long time ago all died in two rounds. We were Spongebob Squarepants under the sea in an aeiry bubble or whatever. A dragon turtle came upon us and demanded all our magic to live. I said, "We are a bunch of humans at the bottom of the sea. We are a heavy threat. Are you sure you want to do this?" Then my paladin friend said something like, "Let's just kill it." It breathed on us and killed everyone but the paladin. It killed the paladin on the second round. Literally, high-level, many year campaign over in two rounds from a wandering monster.

True! AD&D Forever!

E: Just want to add. My "heroic" feats during this massive war was correctly identifying a spot where an invisible major opponent was at and casting a simple Dispel Magic on it. It was super charged with like ten spells. I nullified something like seven of them. The ref said it by itself probably could have taken us all out if I didn't do it and get lucky.

Also, a gate opened to the Nine Hells and some goofy dragon came out (among other things). I flew over to it and hit it with the 7th level Holy Word. No save except magic resistance. Poof, back to the Nine Hells it went, haha! "You ... cannot ... pass!"

28yrs of DM experience here....level? Edition playing?

[–] • 1 pt (edited )

I don't ref, although I have in the past. My ref has 40+ years. We are currently playing 2nd. Also 5th with my other friend, but the critical one is in 2nd.

Levels don't matter. But I'm a 15th level cleric in the critical campaign. I worship the Norse God that rose from the ashes after Ragnarok, haha!

E: Also, we had an adventure in Asgard after Ragnarok (I had to get Odin's chalice), the whole system of existence was fucked up.

We are die hard 3.5 players...same group of guys the whole time, its like poker night lol...their current campaign has them stuck deep in the abyss (The belly of death) around 17th lvl....they are working towards thwarting Orcus' plans to come to the material plane...which would be Greyhawk for them.....Saltmarsh to be exact as I took the story over after the made their way through "Ghosts of Saltmarsh" (That i adapted from 5e to 3.5e)

That sounds awesome!

The campaign I am dealing with is a "Greek" arrogant god that is the first son of the Supreme God (of that pantheon) of Divine Right. So, the first son should be rightfully in ascension according to the father. But the supreme god is balking at that idea.

Luckily, I'm just a Norse priest and don't get involved in those greasy Mediterranean negro politics, haha.

Although Ragnarok has already occurred. All my gods are dead, except one rose from the ashes like a phoenix, who I now worship. (Monotheism Norse, haha!)

It's a bizarre campaign.

E: Oh, critical point, so the son of the "supreme god" decided he is just going to conquer everything on the Prime Material Plane. His current focus is the ref's "Earth world," which we are on. The final adventure is to try and thwart him temporarily.

E2: One last funny: one player worships the "supreme god." I mock him whenever ideology comes up because his god is a fraud about "divine right." We should be working for the evil first son according to his crappy dumb "god."
