An example of one storyline from my PBP: Cadrian’s long legs carried him along as he dodged and skipped around people in his way. “Keep after her, I’m going to cut across to the next street and see if I can’t get ahead of her!” "Check! Good luck." Livvi calls back, then yells to the crowd in front of her, "Get out of the way, you fawning monkeys!" Livvi was concerned about the distance between her and Lilita, the milling throngs blocking her view, and the new chasers between them. As the pursuit continued through the Market, the bard silently thanked her old combat master for his seemingly sadistic training practices. Because of them Livvi was able to keep up the pace and still have breath to use her more mystical vocal powers. Should she attempt to charm person and get Lilita to come to her? Were the ruffians now chasing after the Grey Lady a more pressing threat, and what would they do if she stopped fleeing? Livvi quickly decides to try and end the chase first. She had ways of handling the thugs of needed, but things might get ugly when she unleashed her fury... So, gaging the distance to Lilita and her estimated ability to reach her with her magic, Livvi adds her innate magical powers to her words as she calls out to Lilita, She chooses a poem she learned as a girl, hoping to reach through the terror and shame she had seen in the Grey Lady's eyes and heard in the tremor of her voice. She was gaining on the young woman. It appeared that Lilita was slowing down, gasping for breath as if running out of energy. "You can't look me in the eye - For fear of saying that you don't like me, - That you don't want to come out and play. - I know you're just a little girl, - Who's lost her ribbons - And scraped her knees, - And who crumbles at their feet, - Who falls apart every time they leave. - You don't want to talk to me anymore - Because you slurred your speech - And ruined the cupcakes. - You think that you ruin everything, don't you? - Maybe it's time to quit, - But I don't want you to. - Come back to me, Lilita. - Hold my hand. - Give me a chance." [Lilita failed her Save and is Charmed] Lilita then stumbles to a halt before falling to her knees in exhaustion.
Nice vid. Love these 70's Judges Guild books. There is a Wilderlands of High Fantasy setting released by Judges Guild under the Sword & Sorcery line for D&D 3.0 in 2005, a tome with more than 500 pages and I really like this campaign setting. Cheers!
I have liked it myself ever since I found the originals in a box on a back shelf in what was my local game store back in the 80's. I'm currently using the City State of Tarantis setting for a (in-deep) PBP I'm running via DND Beyond
