Really looking forward to the new module, and I have a question: Will the characters from the current BSK2 still be available when the MotB version comes up? Also, I don't know how this works, is the current module still limited to original classes and 20 levels? If it is, I'll probably just wait un...

Between the many knowledgeable people on this server, is there anyone who knows for sure how Massive Critical, Overwhelming Critical and Thundering Rage go together? According to NWNWiki, it works like this: MC + OC: Both apply. MC + TR: Only MC applies. OC + TR: Both apply. MC + OC + TR: No mention...

"Get it over with," Vicala said, impatiently, "so we can leave this moronic matter behind us." "I don't understand," said the cleric. "If you don't really want this checked out, then why did you come to me in the first place?" "Because they just won't shu...

If the odds are 1 in a 1000 that a stone will drop, and the character kills 1000 ettins, then one forge stone should drop. I think this is where people get confused. I believe how this works is that for each drop, there is a 1 in 1000 chance that a stone drops. Then the next time a drop occurs ther...

It's just 10,000 posts though, not 10,000 threads. We still have to reach the thousandth thread.

Anyway, the landmark seems to have come and gone without much celebration. I hope I didn't just miss the cake and the fireworks?

Of course Raphael returned to Blackstone, as he always did. Not only did he miss helping people and actually being someone, not just second to someone. He also wanted to know what was up with Vicala. He had found himself thinking a lot about her lately. The first few encounters were a little strange...

Later, in a distant village... "Raphael," said a short, sturdy woman when he entered through the garden gate. "What a pleasant surprise." It was almost as if he hadn't been gone for several years since he last visited his family. "Mother. I came as soon as I heard the news....

Welcome to posting! Obviously, there are negative things with BSK, as there are with anything in life. And of course, an open discussion forum easily tends to focus on the negative rather than the positive, of which there isn't really that much to say. The fact that there are so many rants and naggi...

The heavily loaded ship struggled across the stormy ocean. Most of the crew had taken its refuge to the lower levels, maybe seeking out Captain Corvale to inquire about his precious cargo. Not that he would answer. Two unorthodox crew members were standing by the gunwale, though, looking out over th...

He didn't stay in the forest for more than a few days, though. While he liked the nature and the animals, the wilderness always, in the long run, seemed to bore him. His home was any place where people needed him. For a while, he couldn't care less whether Lia was with him, as long as he still could...

What I don't get, and no one was addressed yet, is at level 13, what kind of stuff can you have that's not easy enough to replace? What, a socket weap with two filled, Chainmail of Speed? Kill about 10 Tyraoinds and he may have gotten a whole new raiment and weapon rack. But, as Confuscious say: &q...

"Umgah blood," Raphael thought to himself. "What a blatant excuse for wasting everyone's time." He would be happy to slay a thousand Umgah for that project if it was needed, but the lich had laughingly rejected any such offer. After paying a brief visit to Vicala, whose wounds di...

He had no idea why he had agreed to come along, no idea what was to be done and no idea what was expected of him. One minute he had sat beside Vicala Caéran's bed, attending to her wound and her increasing fever, and the next minute he had been involved in some sort of underground scheme. The...

"Are we taking care of the half-orc first?" she asked, drawing her sword. The halfling stopped polishing his tainted blade and looked up. "I've been looking for you," he said. She stood there, proud and quiet, and the silence quickly grew uncomfortable. At last, he continued: &qu...

Unseen by all, he picked the lock with a quick and dexterous hand movement. He looked around him and quietly opened the door. Her words echoed in his mind: "Why do I care?" They could just as well apply to him, he thought, while he entered yet a deserted house. A bed, an armoire, nothing m...
