New PFRPG Sessions

Author: Games Master
09 21st, 2009

We’ll be starting two new sessions of DnD , using the Pathfinder core rules. This campaign is aimed at people who are new to DnD and are interested in learning the system and experiencing a fantasy system.

There will be two seperate gaming groups

Group 1 : Will play on Sunday Afternoons from 1 PM to 5:30PM every Third Sunday
Group 2 : Will play on Either Thursday or Friday Evenings from 6:30 to 10:30 PM Every two weeks.

The first session will focus on character creation and some initial party introductions and encounters to get everyone ready to play

Then the next 4-5 sessions will run using the first stand alone Pathfinder RPG (PFRPG) module. This will give everyone a chance to learn the rules and their characters, as well as a chance to see how other characters work.

Once that module is finished we’ll allow everyone to make a new character or stick with their original character, and then we will start a fully fledged PFRGP Campaign Path. The Campaign paths are designed to take characters from Level 1 to level 20.

The game will be run in English, the gaming groups are expected to be mixed Expat and Thai.

Please ensure you register at the store to book a place and  make sure you say whether you want to play at the weekend (Sunday) or on a week day (Friday/Thursday)

Midnight Chronicles DVD

Author: Games Master
07 17th, 2009

Midnight, one very cool rpg setting, finally comes to life in the Midnight Chronicles DVD, a film that has been in the making for many many moons, but is due to be released in August. The Midnight setting is one I really enjoyed running, a really dark setting which challenges players in ways that very few RPG campaign settings have manged to do.  More info on the film is on the FFG site

We have just about the complete set of all books released for Midnight in the store library, so feel free to ask to take a look and learn more about this great setting.

A hundred years have passed since the Shadow in the North triumphed over the free nations of Aryth. The dark one’s corrupt lieutenants, the Night Kings, rule with an iron fist over ruined cities and shattered empires. The dwarves of Kaladrun have retreated into their mountain holdfasts, and the elves of Erethor have withdrawn into the heart of their vast and ancient forest. Twisted, incorporeal spirits known as sniffers hunt down the last true masters of magic, and the Shadow’s dark and secretive priesthood, the legates of the Order of Shadow, seek out elven spies, dwarven insurgents, and the few brave heroes who stand defiant against the fall of night.



A brutal night on the town.

Author: Games Master
12 15th, 2008

The day began with Propit wanting to find a new place to live and finding out that he would need to get the permission of the district Kindred lord of whatever area he wanted to move into. That would require some time, planning, and setting up a meeting with said lord.

.

Additionally, Chen was informed by his regent Sasawat that he would need to keep an eye on his ghoul, Adam, and basically ensure the good behaviour of Josh as ghouls’ activities can reflect upon their regent. Chen phoned up Josh and set up a meeting with him with the simple word “Thirsty?” Adam, nearing the end of the month, had a craving he couldn’t understand and, yes, he was damned thirsty. They met at Electric Blue bar in Patpong and Chen gave him a few pints. Chen lied when Adam asked what the hell was going on and Chen said that it was some experimental Chinese military intravenous drug. Adam then went through all his underground contacts trying to find more. Of course, nobody had a clue what he was talking about.

.
The excitement happened on a Thursday night when Propit and Chen, feeling a bit hungry, went hunting in Patpong. Bruce came along as he’s the barfly and knows how to chat up the bargirls. They got two girls to agree to come with the three of them from a pool bar named Lek’s Bar not to far from the Sala Daeng BTS station. Adam, having found no luck searching Nana for the mysterious Chinese drug, was on his way to Patpong.

.
As Bruce left the bar, he heard a man yell out “Hey Bruce. Over here. I want a word.” Looking over, Bruce saw a massive foreigner standing about 20 feet away. He was at least 7 foot tall, 300 lbs. Bruce was wary but allowed the man, who called himself Garth, to walk forward. Garth said that he was there to collect the 500,000 baht bounty on Bruce’s head. However, he said, he would walk away and left Bruce in peace for the cheap price of 50,000 baht. Chen and Propit were outside at this point. Bruce said something about having a new employer who would double that 500K if Garth would switch targets and help Bruce go after David Ward. Garth agreed and stuck out his hand for Bruce to shake. Bruce took it and….

.
ZAP!! Electricity coursed through Bruce’s body as Garth grabbed on to him. Bruce saw just a flash of change in Garth and saw a different person standing in front of him… one with thick ugly white scars running along his arms and across his neck and metallic plates in the back of his hand. Chen reacted quickly and using a new ability he learned, he yelled “Surrender” to Garth and, much to everyone’s surprise” Garth raised his arms above his head. He didn’t look to happy about it though. Adam was walking down to BTS stairs at this point…
.
Everyone backed away from Garth and were waited for someone to make the first move. Garth, with arms still raised, angrily said “I’m just waiting for this shit to wear off!” Bruce violently punched the defenseless Garth twice, once in the face and once in the spleen. Bruce immediately realized that he was in big trouble when his fists screamed in protest over the rock hard body that Garth had. It felt like punching a brick wall.
.
All hell broke loose then. Chen drew and then threw a ninja star at Garth which went wide and Propit plunged his knife into Garth’s stomach. It penetrated the thick skin but just barely. Garth backhanded Bruce and sent him flying through the air. Bruce crashed into the corner of Lek’s bar and fell prone on the ground. Chen then circled around Garth, pulled his gun and shot him. Again, the bullet barely penetrated. Propit continued to stab Garth with limited success. Of course, after bullets when flying, masses of people were diving for cover and running away.
.
Garth, ignored Propit and his knife, pointed his hand at prone Bruce and electricity arced of his hand and zapped Bruce on the ground. Things were not going well. After a few more backhands and flying bodies, Bruce and Propit were beaten badly. Chen, turned things around when he made a perfect shot and hit Garth in the back of the head. It was a grevious wound and the big man was hurting. With Garth on his last legs, none of them had enough ummph in them to bring him down. Propit was the first to hit the ground when Garth knocked him torpid and then Bruce fell next… just barely alive when he fell unconcious. Garth picked up unconcious Bruce and walked away. Chen took some parting shots but couldn’t hurt him. Chen was, by now, starving and fell into a hunger frenzy and took apart some poor somtam lady on the side of the street. By the time he was finished, Garth and Bruce were gone, so was Adam and Propit’s body.
.
Adam had taken Propit’s body to a motel room where he knew the owner. Doing some experiments with Propit’s body and feeding him his blood, Adam quickly realized that he could get his fix here. Adam got a junkie whore he knew to come to the motel room, drugged her up, bleed her into Propit and then fed off Propit. Adam did this for two whole weeks, keeping the whore alive and keeping himself stoned on vamp juice. That was, until Propit woke up after two weeks and devoured the poor girl. Propit still hungry was about to jump Adam but Adam fast talked him down. Propit needed more food so Adam quickly called McDonald’s delivery and ordered a Big Mac meal. The delivery man was the meal, not the Big Mac.
.
In the meantime, Bruce had woken up strapped down to a medical bed, in a bare room, attached to an IV. He saw no one except a nurse who would only come into his room a couple of times a day to change the IV. She said nothing to him. Bruce saw no one else. He attempted to break free from the straps but it was a near impossible task. On the 4th or 5th day, Bruce dislocated his shoulder in the attempt. When the nurse saw this, she got handcuffs and handcuffed his feet to the bed. By the 14th day, Bruce was still there.
.
Chen attempted to phone Bruce but someone else (named Thomas) answered the phone. Chen was unsuccessful in trying to broker a deal in getting Bruce released. Seems that David Ward won’t be budged on the subject.
.
So, at the end of the session, this was the situation. Bruce is locked up somewhere, still half dead, no idea where he is or what’s to become of him.
.
Adam totally blood bonded himself to Propit and Propit had just woken up from a two-week torpor.
.
Chen, no being able to contact Bruce or Propit, has no idea what’s going on.
