Subject: add efreeti army to giant louse demon
I will take the secret door detection into account but if you want the full effect of your ability, you need to look and it is very easy when in a dungeon like setting with monsters trying to hug you at every corner to forget to check. Plus checking take time.

Subject: some are obvious
Yes that is true about Arien and his sword. I was more thinking those who use missile weapons a lot or carry a multitude of weapons.

Subject: added some giant demon louse to the mix
Ahh. I see.
Some things to think about before you start. Due to the nature of this module, movement needs to be very specific. If you are vague or ask me where you are, then I will pick and let the chips fall where they may. There will be maps, some crude and some not so crude. Lots of illustrations too.
Marching Order? Just for the fun of it.
What weapon do your character carry in hand usually? You know, from room to room?
As this is a high level adventure, I will assume that you are all on high alert, and that the Rogue checks for traps on all doors, chests and altars. What I will not assume is that you search for secret doors, you search dead bodies or you are taking a item if you do not say "i take this item".

Description: Lun epitomizes the mystery and beauty of the elven people with finely chiseled features and a lithe figure. Her golden eyes burn with an inner light, and a curly mane of pale silver hair offsets her copper skin. Eldritch markings in honor of Sehanine Moonbow are tattooed along her body.
Brief History: Lun Telumendil has served as a high priestess of the Cult of Mysteries for what seems like centuries. Yet it must be remembered that the Cult of Mysteries values secrecy and the esoteric above all else. The Dark Sisterhood shrouds its members in such mystery where even age and parentage are unknown. Rumors speak of a strange semblance of immortality bestowed upon these enigmatic priestesses, where, like the moon, they live, fade into darkness and then rise again. Among them, Lun is utterly devoted to the mysteries and has spent most of her long life aloof from the rest of the world. Only the most dire of needs have called her out from the hidden temples of Celene.

Abilities
Elves have extremely keen eyes. Their eyes have the ability to see further into the infrared spectrum, allowing them to function in most unlighted places. This sight extends only to a range of 60 feet.
Elves are 90% resistant to sleep- and charm-related spells. Even if they fail a check, they get the save usual for such spells.
Elves gain a special bonus to find secret or concealed doors. Passing within 10 feet of a secret door, elves will detect it on a roll of 1 on a 1d6. If they search a 10-foot–square area, elves can find a secret door on a roll of 1 or 2 on a 1d6. Elves find concealed doors on a roll of 1, 2, or 3 on a 1d6.
Elves gain a special bonus with bows, excluding crossbows. When firing a bow, an elf gains a +1 to attack rolls. This does not apply to damage unless a specially made bow is used that takes advantage of a Strength bonus.
Elves are especially good with short and long swords. Like their abilities with bows, they gain a +1 to attack rolls (but not on damage) when using one of these weapons. This is in addition to any bonuses of the weapon itself.
Elves have the ability to give their enemies a –4 penalty to a surprise roll if the elf is: 1) moving alone, 2) is 90 feet away from the rest of their party, or 3) is with other elves or halflings and all are in nonmetal armor. If the elf must open a door or screen to get to the enemy, the penalty is reduced to –2.

Long Sword (Dark Reaver) +3/+6 vs Undead, Blade glows blue when within 60 feet of undead.
Long Bow+1/+3 vs Undead, half damage against skeleton warriors is ignored
Bracers of Ye’Cind- Bracers of AC 2, each bracer has 2 pockets of holding in them that allow the wearer to store items out of sight and then bring them to hand with a command and gesture. The pockets can hold up to 20 arrows each, or a bow, or musical instruments. If the wearer of the bracers is using a bow, the arrows automatically appear when the bow is drawn, giving the attacker one extra attack per round with the bow. (40 Regular Arrows and 15 Healing Arrows are in 3 pouches of her Bracers of Ye' Cind)
Arrows of Healing (15): These strange arrows are made of a crystal material with a clear liquid inside. When hitting a target, the material shatters and the “victim” gains the effect of a cure light wounds (25%)
Boots of Elvenkind: These soft boots enable the wearer to move without sound of footfall in virtually any surroundings. Thus the wearer can walk across a patch of dry leaves or over a creaky wooden floor and make only a whisper of noise—95% chance of silence in the worst of conditions, 100% in the best.
Belt of Holding
Ring of Sustenance (worn on her left hand ring finger underneath her thin Elven glove at all times, because she is 'married to it') This ring continually provides its wearer with life-sustaining nourishment. The ring also refreshes the body and mind, so that its wearer needs only sleep 2 hours per day to gain the benefit of 8 hours of sleep. The ring must be worn for a full week before it begins to work. If it is removed, the owner must wear it for another week to re-attune it to himself.
Dagger +2

+2 when attempting to use a Counter Song
When a rally is called on the flute, allies gain +2 to hit, saving throws and +3 to morale

Area of Effect: The caster
Saving Throw: None
A warm shield that protects against cold-based attacks, it returns damage to creatures making physical attacks against the caster. When casting this spell, the person appears to immolate himself, but the flames are thin and wispy, shedding no heat, and giving light equal to only half the illumination of a normal torch The special powers of the shield are as follows: The flames are warm to the touch. Any cold-based attacks are saved against with a +2 bonus; either half normal damage or no damage is sustained. There is no bonus against fire-based attacks, but if the wizard fails to make the required saving throw (if any) against them, he sustains double normal damage.

Finarsil the Flaming Raven was orphaned as an 100 year young Elf when her parents were killed in the middle of experimentations with a sequence of forbidden magics, which also caused their only daughter to be rendered infertile with no hope of reversing her inability to bear children.
The High Elf Elders determined that since Firnarsil was incapable of bearing children that she be forbidden to marry, because of the population plunge among the High Elves, especially from the wide spread experimentations of forbidden magics.
Therefore, she was assigned as an apprentice among the storied Bards of the High Elves, where she gained noteriety with the Flute and devoted herself to the worship of Ye' Cind, the demigod of music and magical songs.
She also showed a tendancy for an ill advised interest in spell casting, but through the years learned to stay away from the forbidden magics that claimed the lives of her parents and caused her infertility.
Finarsil was wont to steal away and company with various adventurers, which also added to her woes among the High Elf Elders.
She was forbidden to leave the Bard School to which she was assigned under the watchful eye of the High Elf Elders, but she stole away once more with about a dozen other Bard Students, in the company of a band of adventurers and mercenaries.
Dire consequences were the results of these ill advised actions, because her fellow Bards were all slaughtered, as were all but a handful of the mercenaries.
She returned to the High Elf Elders with great shame, in the company of a group of Bounty Hunters who had been employed to seek and return the wayward Bards.
Finarsil had been tattooed with five 'Flaming Ravens' during her unauthorized absence. One large tattoo on her back, two small tattoos on the outside of each arm between her shoulders and elbows, as well as two other tattoos covering the outside of her hips and upper thighs.
She was banished from the Bard School for her actions and indescretions, the scapegoat for the deaths of the other Bard Students, amid a divided vote among the High Elf Elders.
Migrating to the Lortmil Mountains, she continued to company with various adventurers, but was befriended by a Rogue High Elf Elder who cast a dissenting vote against her banishment, along with an Elderly High Elf Bard.
Together the three founded a Bard School, but in a few short years both the Rogue High Elf Elder and the Elderly High Elf Bard were slaughtered in an attack by Orcs and Goblins upon the unauthorized Bard School.
Finarsil was able to avenge their deaths, before secluding herself somewhere in the Lortmil Mountains, near the Ulek Pass, where she became the Founder and Overseer of 'The Flaming Raven School of the Bards' that welcomed students from among a variety of Elves, Humans, Dwarves and Halflings.
It was here at her 'Bard Refuge' that she first met Galanthanus and begin adventuring with the son of Yolanda the Queen of the Grey Elves, both Finarsil and Galen being about the same age.
She continued doing so for nearly 50 years, until the last time when Galen called upon her and some other adventurer friends to help him find three magical items of evil.
They barely survived their adventure in the Mountains of the White Plume: where they encountered vampires, giant magically enhanced crabs and other evil creatures. They managed to locate the items, along with effreeti and a giant undead dragon.
Finarsil has secluded herself with her Bard Students for the past five years, refusing any requests from Galen, or any other adventurers offering gold to employ her special talents.
She is quite content to remain secluded in the Lortmil Mountains near the Ulek Pass, diligently training any student with coin enough to study at 'The Flaming Raven School of the Bards' and receive her tuteledge and insight from her many years of adventuring.
Finarsil fights Left Handed with her long sword 'Dark Reaver' and holds her long bow with her Left Hand and draws arrows with Elven accuracy with her Right Hand.
When teaching formal classes she wears a sleeveless purple gown that is cut low in the back, exposing the Flaming Raven tattoo on her back and the two tattoos on her arms; while the two tattoos on her hips and outer thighs are exposed by slits up the sides of her gown that open and close when she walks.
When adventuring, she wears a type of Elven garment that covers her body from the neck down to her waist, plus it has sleeves for her arms and she wears thin gloves that do not hinder her Archery or Sword battle talents. She also wears leggings that tuck into her Boots of Elvenkind.that rises up to her waist beneath the top garment. Thus her 5 Tattoos are unable to be seen.
Also, her Bracers of Ye' Cind fit unhindered over her wrists where her gloves meet her sleeves. Hidden under her left glove is a Ring of Sustenance, secured on her finger like a wedding band, signifying the High Elf Bard is 'married' with her trust in the Ring of Sustenance to preserve her life.
Tucked inside her garment underneath her armor is the Amulet of Tongues that allows Finarsil to understand/speak any language.
She also has a Belt of Holding that contains whatever she needs for her personal use or to assist her to help accomplish her mission during any type of adventure. She carries her +2 Dagger in a sheathe on the right side of her Belt of Holding.
There are four pouches (two each) in her Bracers of Ye' Cind that carry 40 regular arrows in her left Bracer and 15 Healing Arrows plus her plain wooden Ye' Cind Flute in her right Bracer.
400 years young, she has smiling Green Almond Shaped Eyes, Light Olive Skin, is 5'5” tall, weighs 110lbs, lets her Raven Dark Black Hair flow over her petite Elven Ears, has an attractively Slim Build and usually carries her Dark Reaver Long Sword in her Left Hand, while her Long Bow is slung over her back.
She enjoys Spinning Tales of Valor, Singing and Spontaneous Poetic Verse to entertain her companions, when she is not playing her Ye' Cind Flute

General Appearance:
Age: 38
Eyes: Green
Height: 5' 11"
Hair: Jet black now sprinkled with gray
Weight: 175 lb.
Build: Athletic
Handsome face, easy grin, laugh lines becoming more prominent. Wears a salt and pepper mustache.
Magical Items:
Luin’naur This longsword of Elvish origin ignited into blue flames when the wielder speaks the name of the blade. It has since been upgraded to a fire brand, which grants it a +3 bonus to attack and damage at all times - except when facing creatures that use cold or dwell in cold environments, in which case the attack and damage bonuses are doubled to +6. The wielder is always protected as if he were wearing a ring of cold resistance. The sword also has a 50% chance of igniting any flammable material or melting any ice. This power extends to a 10 foot radius, including a wall of ice but not a cone of cold, ice storm, or similar.
Ankheg Plate Armor +3 of Free Action This unque green armor was crafted specifically for Arien in gratitude for his service to the elven crown. The knight helped to destroy an infestation of ankhegs, and the elven smiths crafted a suit of plate from the carcass of the largest, most powerful of the monsters.
The surface armor is covered is subtle runes of power. From a distance, these are not readily visible, but close inspection reveals them. The armor is half the weight of normal plate, and is flexible and comfortable to wear (as far as armor goes).
It carries powerful enchantments that not only grant +3 against attacks, but also grants the wearer the benefits of a ring of free action - namely, he can move and attack freely and normally even when attacked with a web, hold, or slow spell, and even while under water; the spells simply have no effect. When under water, the wearer moves at normal (surface) speed and does full damage even with cutting or smashing weapons (assuming the weapon is held, and not thrown). The effect does not, however, grant the ability to breathe under water.
The helm of the armor carries an additional, unique enchantment - when the faceplate is closed, the wearer's vision is not impacted at all; the wearer can see as clearly through the helmet as he could if wearing no headgear whatsoever. In addition, the helmet bestows infravision as if the wearer were elven.
Shield +2, +5 vs Missiles This kite shield once belonged to Arien's grandfather. It grants a +2 against melee attacks, and a massive +5 against hand-hurled and mechanically propelled missiles of all sorts. In addition, the shield has a 30% chance of negating magic missile attacks (from a frontal position).
Dagger of Throwing +2 The balance of this sturdy blade is perfect, and when thrown, demonstrates superb characteristics as a ranged weapon. The magic of the dagger enables it to be hurled up to 180 feet. A successful hit when thrown inflicts twice normal dagger damage, plus the weapon's bonus of +2.
Longbow +1 This beautifully crafted yew longbow bears elvish runes up and down the surface of the wood. More importantly, it grants a +1 to both attack and damage.
Girdle of Frost Giant Strength This belt looks similar to ordinary belts, but it is imbued with very powerful magic. When worn, it increases the physical prowess of its wearer, giving him the strength of a giant. The strength gained is not cumulative with normal or magical strength bonuses except in combination with gauntlet of ogre power and magical warhammers.
Boots of Levitation Allows the wearer to ascend or descend vertically, at will. The speed on ascent/descent is 20 feet per round, with no limitation on duration.
Peripat of Health This engraved gem appears to be a gem of small value. The possessor is immune to all diseases save that of the peripat of foul rotting for as long as he has it on his person.
Scarab of Protection This nondescript amulet gives off a faint magical aura, and if held and examined for one round, an inscription appears to let the holder know that it is a protective device.
The possessor gains a +1 bonus to all saving throws versus spell. If no save is normally possible, he gets a 1 in 20 chance of saving, adjusted by any other magical protections that normally give bonuses to saving throws. Thus, this device allows a saving throw versus spell at base 20 against magic missile attacks, for example. Any magical armor bonuses, rings of protection, etc, stack with this bonus, so Arien would be granted a save of 12 or better to avoid a magic missile.
The scarab can also absorb up to 12 level draining attacks, death touches, death rays, or fingers of death. However, upon absorbing 12 such attacks, the scarab tuns to powder - completely destroyed.
Heward's Handy Haversack This backpack appears qute ordinary and well used. It appears to be crafted of fine leather, and bears brass buckles and hardware. There are two side pouches which appear to hold around a quart of material, but each is similar to a bag of holding and will actually hold up to two cubic feet of volume or 20 pounds in weight. The large central portion of the backpack can hold up to 8 cubic feet of volume or 80 pounds of material.
The pack has an even greater power - when the wearer reaches into it for a specific item, that item will always be on top, negating any need to dig around for it. The haversack and all items within it gain a +2 to all saving throws.
Portable hole A portable hole is a magical cloth spun from the webs of a phase spider interwoven with the strands of ether and beams of Astral plane luminaries. When opened fully, a portable hole can be 6 feet in diameter, but it can be folded as small as a pocket handkerchief. When spread upon any surface, it causes an extra-dimensional hole 10 feet deep to come into being. this hole can be "picked up" from inside or out by simply taking hold edges of the magical cloth and folding it up. Either way, the entrance disappears, but anything inside the hole remains.
The only oxygen inside the hole is created by the creation of the space, so creatures requiring the gas cannot remain inside the hold for more than a turn without opening the space again by means of the magical cloth. The cloth does not accumulate weight, even if the hole is filled

She favours black clothing of excellent quality but not flashy. She never wears armour in public. Sparrow is very quiet and reserved.
Magical Items
Short Sword +3 (Scalpel) This Short Sword is completely black from hilt to blade. It does not reflect light nor does it make a sound when dropped or drawn. In the hands of a non-thief, the sword gives the wielder the ability to back-stab as a 1st level thief. In the hand of a professional, the blade will add one to the damage modifier (IE: a 15th level thief would do X6 with scalpel). Furthermore, once per day the sword can be used to cut through any armour for a single attack. When used for this attack, the victim has a base Ac of 9 plus dexterity only. The sword does double damge for this attack.

It does this for the first 8 points of damage in a single hit, tranferring 8 hit points of healing to the user. It will only drink the blood once a round and once for three rounds. Once satiated, the sword will act as a sword +3 only for five more rounds. If combat is still going at that point it can suck up three more gulps of blood, and so on.

Upon mental command from a command ring, the body suit can undo itself from the wearer and creep around on it’s own. The suit response to mental commands and possesses a strength of 18 (00). Its main attack is to lash out at opponents and strangle them to death.

Bead of Free Action: This bead enables the wearer to move and attack freely and normally even when attacked by a web, hold, or slow spell, or even while under water. The spells simply have no effect. While under water, the individual moves at normal (surface) speed and does full damage even with cutting weapons (like axes and scimitars) and with smashing weapons (like flails, hammers, and maces), insofar as the weapon used is held rather than hurled. This will not, however, enable breathing under water without further appropriate magic.
Bead of Fire Resistance: The wearer of this bead is totally immune to the effects of normal
fires—torches, flaming oil, bonfires, etc. Very large and hot fires, molten lava, hell-hound breath, or a wall of fire spell will cause 10 hit points of damage per round if the wearer is directly within the conflagration.

Brief History:
Dawn had not yet broken when the old man entered the lodge, “Witschidin (helper), it is time.” The young boy stirred then quickly dressed. “ Yes, Muchomes ( Grandfather) I am ready.”
Odyson started gathered the few meager items he owned. “No, remove your leathers, leave them and the rest, they are no longer of use to you.” So naked into the dark the boy followed his Great grandfather. The boy had to follow in silence, he was giving up family and all that he had. He was chosen and he understood what that this meant, he hoped he would prove worthy.
Thus the boy of seven summers began his trail of the Great Bear. His family was said to be descended for Jon, the Shaman of the Great Bear, but that alone was not enough to be finally be accepted by the Guardians. Any of the people could be chosen and train, but only those that learned to serve would lead.
Shaman of the Great Bear
In the time before people Lieut watched over his sisters and brothers and thus learned much about world. Fawna saw there was much to do and called the great bear. ‘Your great strength and gentle manner will aide you to watch over my beasts. You shall roam the mountains and plains being my eyes and ears when I am not there. You are as my own child. And so the bear became first among those that walked the earth.
The Great Spirit was pleased and placed people on the land. Lieut was charged to be the guardian of the people. The great bear saw these new creature and added them to its duty for were they not also beasts of the land? Lieut and Fawna were pleased and together they guided and watch the great bear, for it aided both their charges.
Because of the bear’s great size and strength the people became fearful and weary of the beast. From that fear and misunderstanding the first chief of the spear people, Addom, sent his two sons out to destroy the bear. Mikel was a mighty hunter and warrior. Jon was a tracker, woodsman and healer. Together they tracked the bear into the hills. Here the found the cave of the bear. They waited for the bear come out. As the sun started setting there were sounds of movement near the cave opening. Mikel notched an arrow and shot it into cave. A small scream of pain came from the cave mouth as small bear cub tumbled out, the arrow lodged in its side. The small bear whined painfully for it mother. Mikel notched another arrow but Jon stopped his arm before he shot. “The cub is not what we came to kill, there is no honor in protecting our people from the death of a babe.” Grabbing his healer’s bag Jon went to the cub and tried to save the cub.
Jon’s calm and gentle manner smoothed the young bear and it allowed Jon to tend it and remove the arrow. From the darkness of the cave a great form lumber toward Jon. The great bear emerged and raised up on hind legs. With teeth bared and clews extended the she bear was going to protect her cub. Mikel quickly let another arrow fly. The line of flight was true to the bears heart, a sure kill.
Jon saw the arrow flight, but it just stopped, hanging in mid air. He turned and Mikel was standing as if stone watching the arrow. He looked at the bear and it to stood silently still. The air around Jon began to shimmer and two low glowing balls of light appeared between him and the bear. The spirits of Fawna and Lieut appeared. “Jon,” Fawna said,” You are brave and good of heart. You must teach your people not fear my bear. She is here to serve me and watch over all my creatures.”
Lieut said, “She is here the aide me; to watch over the people too.”
“But the bear was surely attacking me, she will kill me” said Jon.
“She was protecting her babe, she drew the arrow to her to save her cub” said Fawna. “You must learn from her for she is as my child. You must teach your people to respect her and know the bear is good and watching over them too. She will lead you to my brothers and sisters, they will teach you of their powers and how you can call upon them for aid. You will then gather others of the people and teach them of the “Way”.
With that the bear now moved too. Turning to Fawna the bear said, “Mother, what must I do? My babe is dying from this creatures attack, surly they are no longer my charge but shall be my pry.”
“No my daughter, this one has saved your child and proven they can be good of heart, they do not understand your purpose and must learn. This one will stay with you and you shall learn from each other.”
“How can that be, it is so small and weak it surely can not serve in the wild?”
Fawna raised her hand and Jon transform into the shape of a great brown bear. “He will take this form when he needs the strength of the Shush so that he may travel and hunt with you.”
Lieut, waved his hand and bear transformed into a beautiful maiden of the people. “In this form you will learn more of the people and their ways. You will be able to call this form when you need it. Now your spirits will unite so that you may understand and trust each other. “
Mikel, though unable to move saw and understood all that was happening. Lieut turned to Mikel, “ You will return to your father and tell only that you have learned that the great bear is not to be feared, but respected for it silently stands guard to protect the people. You tell your father that Jon has gone to learn the ways of the great bear spirit and to spread the knowledge among the people. Tell him that his son has seen the Great Bear Spirit and will be the first Shaman of the Great Bear.”
Mikel returned to the people and told his father all as he was instructed. Jon never returned to his father, but a Shaman came and trained a member of the tribe in the ways of healing and the how to call the powers of the earth and creatures. These Shaman had great powers that made them worthy in battle, healing and become trusted counselors. All of these things came from the secrets Jon had learned from the spirit of the bear and the guidance of the “Guardians”.
And so it is that the followers of the “Great Spirit” will need a teacher to guide them, one who knows the “Way” of each “Guardian”. Devoting themselves to each starting with Amamlthea and ending with Lieut, this teacher will learn to guide, to serve, to heal, to protect and to act as the link between the people and the “Way”. The Shaman draw powers from the blessings of the “Children” of Mother Earth and are granted the ability to do special feats. If a servant of the “Way” has completed his learning of the “Six”, is chosen by the Guardian and passes the test of the “Children” they may crossover between the boundaries of the “Ways” and become joined with the Great Bear.

General Description: Kadrin is a stocky, muscular Mountain Dwarf originally from Havenhill. He has been serving in Prince Olinstaad’s Royal Army almost since the Prince ascended the throne. He is an old dwarf, though, except from the wrinkles that have formed deep etches around his eyes and the slightly greying beard, it would be difficult to tell... a dwarf of 200 hundred years, maybe.
But while Kadrin’s strength and constitution seem not to be failing him, he is in fact 325 years old. The occasional grumbling of his joints reminds the dwarf of this fact from time to time.
Kadrin is blind in his right eye, an early brush with death that has left him with a savage scar and a sightless socket.
Being part of the Stonefist clan and having achieved his own measure of success in service to the Prince, Kadrin is well-to-do. Like most of his race, he admires fine craftsmanship.
Magical Items
Ring of Youthful Vitality: A ring of white gold with small rubies along the band. The ring provides two blessings upon the wearer – 1) when the ring is worn for a month, the wearer’s maximum age variable is doubled (2d100x2 for the dwarf)... once granted, the blessing is permanent even if the wearer removes the ring. 2) when the ring is worn for a week, the wearer begins to become immune to the negative penalties of aging... this blessing is lost if the ring is removed.
Ring of True Seeing: A small, precisely cut diamond set in a platinum ring. Once per day, when the wearer of the ring will it, the ring produces the effect of a priest’s “true seeing” spell, allowing the wearer “true sight” out to a range of 120 ft for the duration of 5 rounds.
Brooch of Warning: A silver chain with a silver medallion with platinum inlays depicting a picture of a watchful bear. Anyone wearing this brooch is surprised only on a roll of 1 in 10.
Horn of Clanggedin: A white ram’s horn inlayed with adamantine, the metal depicting two crossed battle axes. When the horn is blow, it produces the effect of a priest’s “prayer” spell with an area effect of 100 ft centered on the person blowing the horn and the duration of 10 rounds. The horn can be blown 3x/day and only by a dwarf of good alignment.
Boots of the Draft Horse: Sturdy, dark brown leather boots, steel toed, with a picture of a powerful horse sewn into the leather of each boot. The boots allow the wearer to gain the movement rate of a draft horse (MV 12), and the wearer does not suffer any ill effects from a forced march.
Haversack of the Merchant: A well crafted, leather backpack sewn together with threads of silver and gold, the buckles being made of to look like gold coins depicting the face of a dwarven king. The backpack functions exactly like “Heward’s Handy Haversack”.
Nurabir, “Brother’s Keeper”, +3 Dwarven Field Plate (AC -2), Soul bound: This suit of field plate was specifically made for Kadrin by his sister, Hilda Stonefist, a master craftswoman and priestess dedicated to the Soul Forger. The chain mail undercoat is made from fine links of alternating steel and adamantine. The plates are made of high-polished steel, giving it a slightly bluish colouration. Etched in the steel plates and inlayed with adamantine is the heraldry of the Stonefist clan, along with the Clan’s motto “Resolute and Sure”. The suit contains enchantments increasing its defensive protection by +3. Additionally, when Kadrin speaks a command word, he can call the armor to himself. If he is not wearing any other armor, Brother’s Keeper appears on him, strapped and buckled properly. A second command word allows Kadrin to remove Brother’s Keeper. The armor disappears from his body and appears nearby (5 – 10 ft away) on dwarven mannequin.
Har’ard, “the Stalwart Guardian”, +2 Medium Steel Shield (adds +3 bonus to AC): A highly polished round shield with the heraldry of the Principality of Ulek etched in dark adamantine. This shield was also a gift to Kadrin from his sister. The enchantments add an additional +2 to the defensive protection of the shield. When Kadrin uses the shield to bash his opponents, it is +2 to hit and causes 1d6+2 plus strength damage.
Nurakas, “the Steady Seeker”, +3 Light Crossbow of Accuracy: A dark lacquered, wooden crossbow with string made from tightly braided unicorn hair. This crossbow adds +3 to hit, causes 1d6+3 damage, and all normal distances are considered “short” range.
Dain, “the Stout Fist”, +3 War Hammer: A light-weight, double headed hammer molded from one piece of mithral-adamantine alloy. The hammer may be used one handed in combat, causing double normal hammer damage (2d4+2/2d4) with a +3 bonus to attack and damage. When used two-handed on walls and doors up to 2 feet thick, the hammer has a chance of smashing through a hole in the door or wall equal to double the wielder's chances to bend bars or lift gates. The hole will be large enough to allow a human-sized being to crawl through it without trouble.
Brief History: Kadrin serves as a general in the Principality’s Royal Army, and presently divides his time between advising the Prince, defends the Principality’s land holdings near Thunderstrike (near the Suss Forest), and taking on certain special operations on behalf of the Prince’s or nation’s interest. Being assigned to the defense of the lands around Thunderstrike means that Kadrin regularly is connecting and coordinating with leaders from the nations with shared borders, most often with Celene. While he feels wounded by Queen Yolanda’s resistance to assist the Principality of Ulek in recapturing territory lost to the tribes of Pomarj, he has continued to remain fast friends with her son, Galan.

+3 Vorpal Long Sword �JAL� JAL was re-forged with a red mystic gem on its pommel. When touched and the command word spoken, the sword changes with the blade goes to red becoming red hot as if taken fresh from a forge. In this form it is +4 vs cold using creatures and does double damage, However it loses the Vorpal power when hot. A second touch and the command word spoken in reverse JAL returns to it normal Vorpal state.
+3 Short Sword �HOTH� HOTH was forged with a blue mystic gem the blade crafted with glassteel. The sword itself does not reflect light nor make a sound when drawn from a sheath. When drawn, it casts a light in a 60' radius but only the bearer of the sword can see the light. 2x per day, a command can be given that turns the light into True seeing as per the spell for 5 rounds. The bearer can if desired share the True Seeing ability with two others if all grasp the hilt of HOTH. Like JAL if the gemstone is touched and the command word spoken the blade goes blue becoming ice cold like an icicle. The sword is +4 vs fire using creatures and does double damage. However in ice form, the light and true seeing can not be used. A second touch and the command word spoken in reverse HOTH returns to it normal state
The two swords are a matched set
+3 Axe of Hurling X2 This appears to be a normal hand axe. With familiarity and practice, however, the possessor will eventually discover that the axe can be hurled up to 180 feet, and it will return to the thrower in the same round whether or not it scores a hit. Damage inflicted by the magical throwing attack is twice normal (2d6 vs. S or M, 2d4 vs. L), with the weapon's magical bonus added thereafter. (For example, an axe of hurling +3 will inflict 2d6+3 points of damage vs. S- or M-sized creatures and 2d4+3 points of damage vs. creatures of size L if it hits the target after being thrown.)

BACKGROUND
Maximus Jerele started life as any normal boy born to loving parents and a part of a Sueli household, north of the Empire. His first 15 years of age were as normal as any child could hope for filled with love of a girl, happiness of youth and two very wonderful parents. But as with everything in life all good things come to an end and with the coming of the Empire so did Maximus�s normal life.
His parents killed and his village destroyed he along with a few hardy boys were taken as slaves to be trained for a new life and death in the Gladiatorial pits. His handlers were good and seeing in Maximus a possible champion they trained him both day and night and turned him into a good fighter and then as hoped for, a champion. So much the champion that the crowds knew him by face and placed upon him the nickname of "El Diablo", or translated to common "the Devil" and so they chanted it every time he did enter the pit.
For the next 10 years Maximus was champion, unbeatable by all, and seemed to savor this life so much so that though he was still watched and not trusted his guards grew lax and in a moment of surprise violence Maximus did kill them and escaped. Along with a few others Maximus now 25, was free.
The boy turned slave, turned Gladiator, now a free man vowed never to be a slave again. He turned Mercenary, went out into the world for the first time to fight for any and all including himself. At times even for free if the cause was right, against the realm he would hate till his dying breath that of the Empire. Maximus worked his way south, away from his former homelands and into the realms of the Iron League. Then one day, five years after breaking free, Maximus now thirty joined up with a newly formed group of adventurer�s.
This new group consisted of Arien Thedell, a male, human Knight, no one more noble then this Knight in training. Char, a human Ranger, no man better in the skill of a woodsmen. Dapple Moon a beautiful female half-elf Fighter/Thief, some called her crazy, Maximus called her friend. Kilgim Blackaxe, a male, dwarf, Fighter/Cleric, when called upon to heal or fight there was none more faithful to his god. Adrian Valentine, a male, human, Mage the first of his skill set Maximus had ever met in or out of the arena, but one to remember.
Finally there was Jal Spellbinder, another human Mage but different from the rest of this new party. As the adventure that had brought them together began Maximus found he and Jal had much in common and they soon became the closet of the group in friendship. In reality Maximus as a gladiator had never had friends, nor as a mercenary. For him Jal was his first true friend. Years came and went, daring quests and missions started and finished, and the party made a name for themselves. Life for awhile was good for this close group of seven friends.
However nothing lasts forever and it was on a mission to a tower of evil that Jal died. For the group as a whole the death of Jal was terrible and heart breaking, for Maximus it was devastating and the huge gladiator never fully recovered. Within a short time later the six survivors parted ways, each following his or her own path, the cloud of Jal�s death hanging over all.
During the next four years since leaving the others the time moving slowly Jal�s death ever hovering. Finding himself on his own, and having to support himself, Maximus turned to the skill of Thievery, finding even for his size, he was quite good at it. Little by little while learning the skills of a rogue, Jal�s memory a cloud of guilt, loneliness and despair. During this time Maximus found himself adventuring with many different groups, though never making as close friends as the original group. It was during one of these quests to the Hall of a Stone King that Maximus was able to give Jal the honor he deserved and lay the guilt felt over the Mage�s death to rest. During combat with an Iron Scorpion, Maximus was able to defeat it but lost his hand and his prized Vorpal sword was broken. A fellow party member, Galenthanus an Elven Mage/Thief, and son of Yolanda, lent the big gladiator his ring of regeneration to slowly re-grow the hand. During this time a dwarf smith named Otto, owing his life to Maximus and having taken two mystic gems from the scorpion. Used them to reforge the Vorpal blade and also make a matching short sword as well. When presented to the big Fighter/Mage Maximus named the new Vorpal sword JAL, the short sword HOTH.
With two new swords and his hand once more whole Maximus continues to adventure hoping one day to once again reunite with the survivors of that first group somehow.

Having seen the rolls I am getting from the dice roller, let's scrape this idea. I don't know about the dice trying to kill you but the dice roller definitely wants you to die.

You roll 10 d20s.
When a saving throw comes up I roll a d10 to pick your result..
It is just a novel idea. If it confuses you or you have no desire to do so, not a problem. Just throwing it out there.

You can do these rolls and at least you have a hand in the results or you let me roll and take my results. Some people like the idea of rolling their own die.

Does everyone know the dice roller on the Inn?
Dice Roller
I would like everyone to go there and roll a d20 ten times and email it to me - rbriantatgmail.com.
I will use these rolls for saving throws and roll a d10 to pick the score.
As well, do the same for 10 rolls of a d100 for anytime I do percentages. I always go high for rolls so if you need 75% you do not want to roll 24 or below.
MAke sure you add your name to it so I know who's rolls are whom.
Or you can just let me roll for you -

Subject: Silver Screen II
Her Majesty, Queen Yolanda of Celene had many titles. Her honorifics included, “The Eternal”, "Her Fey Majesty," the "Faerie Queen," the "Perfect Flower of Celene," and "Lady Rhalta of All Elvenkind." There were more but she stopped keeping track of such frivolity after the 4th millennium of her life. At this moment she would gladly trade then all for a chance to leave this Grand Ball and return to her chambers for the night. Part of it was the nagging headache she had that was hounding her like an old love, neither fading not getting stronger but remaining irritating. The other part was after 4000 years as a ruler, these parties were more than a little boring to her by now. She was planning on making her exit as subtly as she could when it hit her. The headache vanished and was replaced by a strong sense of loss and pain. She stumbled to ground and everyone in the courtyard gasped to see her fall. Through it all, one name came to the forefront of her mind - Galenthanus
Onselven, her chief advisor and cousin was beside her within seconds, “Your Majesty? Yolanda? What ails you?”
“she stood up on her own and looked at Onselven with eyes of pain and concern, “It is Galen. He is in danger. Summon Ellendil and Wendela to my chambers immediately. I want the Flyers outside my window as soon as possible., make sure they have a mage who can cast teleport.”
“Yes my lady.”
“Clear the room, there will be no celebration until I am sure Galen is alive and unharmed.”
“Yes your Majesty.”
Yolanda ran up the stairwell of the grand hallway and towards her chamber. Her subjects ran out of her way with one glimpse of her determined face. Once inside the room, she immediately crossed her bedroom to the door on the right and flung open the doors. There was a garden encircling a silver basin on a stone pedestal and over the basin was a floating orb, with an amber glow to it. She sighed with partial relief but ran to the orb abd with one hand grabbed it and then focused her power on the one thing that mattered the most to her in the world -her son. At first she got images of darkness, horses fleeing, and screams.
Oh no! The Triplets!
Summoning the full extent of her mana to her, she tried to get a hold on Galen and pull him to her, but something blocked her every move. A dark presence that seemed hauntingly familiar yet completely unknown at the same time was matching her for power and magic. As she reached for her loved ones, it reached for her and she knew that this was part of the dark one’s plan. With noi choice left, Yolanda was forced to let go of her hold and step away from the basin.
Ellendil and Wendela came into her room and called for her. The Queen rushed out of the garden to meet them.
“My Queen ..” Ellendil started.
“No time for that. Galenthanus and those he wished to ward are in grave peril. Ellendil, I want the airborne unit ready for me to warp them to Galen’s location.”
“At once Yolanda!”
“Wendy, get me every mage that can cast teleport and Sending with some proficiency. We will need help.”
“Yes Yolanda. Shall I contact the Diamond Core?”
“No. The Archmage and I did not part on the best of terms and besides, I need someone or someones more subtle. Now go! Do not delay!”
The two elves ran out of the room and Yolanda ran out to the balcony outside of her room. Within a few minutes, a squad of elven hunters astride Hippogriffs flew by her balcony. The leader saluted his readiness to Yolanda and she cast her spell, creating a gateway to Galen’s last known location. Without hesitation, the squad through the Warp and disappeared.
She stared at the place where the portal was for a moment and then looked to her hands. She was still clutching the orb as if it was a new born baby. Where are you Galenthanus?
News came within the hour. The elven hunters had found a caravan that the Prince had used and it was clearly damaged from an attack. There were no elves at be found at all. No sign of the Prince, the 12 elven hunter guards or the three elven maids they were guarding. They found a dead human, a cleric friend of Galen Yolanda remembered. He appeared to have been tortured, and dismembered and then brought back to life so he could be tortured and dismembered again.
Yolanda held herself together by the knowledge that she was sure she knew who was behind this. The touch across the void was enough to awaken the memories but abducting three elven ladies of the same bloodline and Galen – There was only one, well three beings actually, that had a clear reason to do that. She thought they were gone but she was clearly wrong. She needed to contact the most powerful warriors, clerics, Rogues and Wizards she could and all ones that would want to save Galen -the friends from the past that served with Galen on his adventures.
Yolanda returned to the Garden Basin and prepared herself to cast some spells.
