The Hill Cantons cosmology inspiration mix Jack Vance novels (absurdist satire of religious mores) Poul Anderson's The Broken Sword and Three Hearts, Bachman's Dragon article (the Weird and its cosmic juxtaposition to human civilization, the waxing/waning of gods being tied to the amount of human worship and the reduction of “Faerie”) Leiber's Lankhmar stories (more satire, petty gods and apotheosis) Early Renaissance Catholicism, Mediterranean hero-cults, Hellenistic and Roman sun-cults, Theosophy, Jewish neoplatinism and mystical traditions, Piper's Lord Kalvan, Early Christian theological disputes (Sun Lord) Hussites, Mormon feminism, William Blake's poetic mythology around the Triple Goddess (Celestial Lady) Slavic pagan mythology (Pahr Old Gods and a number of godlings) Hindu and Native American creation myths (World Turtle) M.A.R Barker's Creat...
Alas poor Snake, entered the Frog Demon Temple and fell to his death down the stairs. (and we promptly beat feet out of there).
ReplyDeleteKochka!
ReplyDelete(What happened to Kracki the Hooded One and Kruluzax? Also Volga the Vain is still pseudo-alive IIRC, just hanging out with Keth.)
let us not forget Durdic
ReplyDeleteand the still-active Mulgar and Ool (4th level!)
ReplyDeletewhat happened to those 4 vikings we hired? Dardic, Murgar, Turmox, and Dindoc?
ReplyDeleteand then there's Wardude, who is probably still alive but maybe worse off for it
ReplyDeletecole long thanks I will add them. It's a bitch going through the old hiring posts on here.
ReplyDeleteHumza Kazmi Kruluz fairly sure he got killed, maybe in the flesh blob explosion? That killed a number of hirelings,
ReplyDelete"Boy" is the same person as Girly, right?
ReplyDeleteactually i guess not, from the description. so Girly is another one to add
ReplyDeleteand then there's hudric, the toothless old guy that taurus fitted with grills before he god phaserized
i guess i was saying it wrong Hurdic, shifty-eyed man-at-arms lacking most of his teeth. Hp: 4, Ringmail, spear, shield.
ReplyDelete(i'd always thought it was Hudric, "Hoo-Drick")
ReplyDeleteWasn't Hurdic the guy who had the wooden family locket? It's like a war movie you forget all the dead extras.
ReplyDeleteno, that's Durdic. what he had was lovingly/creepily carved wooden figurines of his family members
ReplyDeleteHudric was a toothless old man who was taurus' man-at-arms for a while, taurus bought him fancy grills because he/i thought that would be funny. then under bad rajetz he caught an errant phaser bolt from philip
ReplyDeleteYes Durdic, we determined that he had in fact killed them.
ReplyDeleteKruluzax is still alive and in the service of Lady Isris. He is currently slogging about the shadowed streets of Sigil with her. Also with her is Brown Tomas, former indentured servant now 1st level fighter who carries about an (oft useless) arquebus.
ReplyDelete[also, Girly's real name is Garmir]
