Ok here goes:

Part one: I like the campaign just fine. I like how the Books are progressing. Sure, this one was a tad slow, but I think overall it was a very good book. Look at all the work put into the Fey and the trials. We can also add how well every one posts in general. That post by Lia was awesome btw. NT really keeps us interested in the game. There's posts in his game every day and sometimes quite a few times a day. That doesn't count I think pretty much everyone is on AIM. Don't forget people like Isabella and gonzoron who read our game religiously. Isabella I'm sure helps out NT a lot.

Part two: I think the fight went as well as can be expected. The Giant was very powerful, as were Spite and Malice. They didn't make it easy for us. Look at how Otto, Tomas, Khalil and Ishaq were out of the fight pretty fast. Thus making it real difficult to accomplish the main objective.


I love the villains btw. Imagine if the game didn't have the Anubite or Cavendish. I think it would be a very different game.


Part one: Format [not my forté] so I'll pass.

Part two: Antagoninsts
Cavendish - From the first time I met him[I think I was the first with the two girls, well let's see. Allikhain didn't like him at all. Ulsaon was neutral to him - he did after all offer a lot of coin to which Allikhain refused. Ishaq doesn't like him because of what he's heard of him from the others and he is responsible for two party members deaths.

I personally like him as a villain/antagonist

The Anubite: Like other people said, the Anubite adds an element of mystery to our campaign.

Cevdet: He was really the weakest one. Nuff said on him.


Fey: Um well. From Ishaq's point of view we could have done without them. They made him really nervous. Arcane magic is unnatural to him, so imagine the Fey to him.

I personally really enjoyed the Fey. Our DM goes thorugh a lot of preparation and it really shows in his posts and the game in general. Spot on! Spot on, NT!


Part Two: Overarching Campaign Myth Arcs:

I like the expedition just fine. It's interesting having over 20 people together for such a long period of time. We're halfway thereand we still don't know alot about the npc's. I don't know if that's a good or bad thing. I think our mission is going as well as can be expected. The little infighting makes it more interesting but Ishaq doesn't understand that at all.

Part Three : Themes

Gothic? NOt my forté either.


Part Four: Miscellaneous

Not really. I like the pace of the game, and as I said before, how NT keeps us posting. Though he is mostly responsible for the success of the Eye of Anubis, all of you guys and gals make it all possible. I enjoy playing with you and it can only get more interesting!

I'm fine with Mary coming on board if we can convince Sam and Pelletier.

Same here. She survived a trek across the desert that killed several other people otherwise more suited. She's either more competent than either she knows, some form of monster, or has INSANE luck.

No matter which of the above it is, she'll fit right in. :D

If Ishaq has a vote, he'll say no. HE doesn't trust a frail looking woman who survived all by herself through the desert to where she is. He won't make a fuss, just say no.


Okay Ishaq's shopping adventure

Sells the armor of cool. Ok Purcasing an amulet of armor protection. Better AC means less damage ;) Nice being a tank but if my AC is higher less chance of taking dmg ;)

FYI I beat Ofnir with those ;)

And Brute Gauntlets are nice, I agree but last one round. The potion or spell of bull strength will last much longer ;)

I'm in favor of Mary joining up. Otto wouldn't hesitate to help her out, and from my perspective, even if she is a monster of some kind she's sure to make things more interesting. :)

That is five Yea and one Nay, so we have a majority. I'll be moving along towards the final scene sometime later tonight.

I am, however, going to be fairly distracted over the course of today and early tomorrow, since I'm moving back on campus. Still, we'll see what I can do.

Khalil will vote yes to Mary tagging along. As I stressed before sometimes not everyone is out to kill you.....

And did I miss the shopping trip then?

Also KK have you got an updated list of kuzans magic item shop?

Shopping stuff, tomb exploration, all that other random stuff we can do Post-Facto, since it's not part of the main campaign.

I will try to update the list this weekend to see if there's anything around.

His caster level right now is 9, so you can use that to look around on your own in the meantime if you like.
