It's been a little while since I last posted in this thread. I've since run "Masterwork Imbroglio" and "Axe from the Grave", so that makes three Golden Vault adventures in a row. I placed the former in Fairhaven and Lathleer in Aundair and the latter in northern Breland near Starilaskur and Lake...

Yes. The idea that a Jedi would willingly die by suicide because of what happened then is really quite damning. (As an aside, that impenetrable Force field effect was pretty cool.)

I will say one thing that kind of irked me is the whole "meknek" thing. It just sounds like people are mispronouncing "mechanic".

Yes. DAI's revelations about the Evanuris and the old gods was really awesome. We also know what happened to the magisters who broke through to the Maker's city. There's just that one last piece of the Thedan theology puzzle.

They sort of did in The Last Jedi.

I liked DAO although it suffers from a plethora of silly random quests like finding someone’s lost nug when you ought to be focusing on stopping the Blight. Also the fact that you can go back and forth across the map and the Blight doesn’t ever advance until certain plot things happen. Awakening...

Hey, remember that Star Wars is, and always has been, space opera.

I have now added my notes for "Masterwork Imbroglio" and "Axe from the Grave" to the OP. With the former, I thought the PCs were going to make quick work of the adventure, but it ended up taking us three sessions to complete and the PCs explored pretty much the whole guildhouse, while the...

There will be a game reveal on June 11. BioWare has changed the name to Dragon Age: The Veilguard to put the focus more on the heroes who will be defending the Veil rather than the villain who is trying to get rid of it. https://blog.bioware.com/2024/06/06/TheVeilguard/

Sold! I will be getting all three alt covers!

Interesting. I'm not playing in survival mode, and I didn't leave the doors locked, so the fast travel doormat that I put in the middle of Hangman's Alley works fine. I was just in there last night because it got attacked. I've beefed up security, but I only currently have two permanent...

Yeah, I'll admit that one piqued my curiosity, but I didn't get my hopes up or anything. Shattered Obelisk is just such a weird product. I found myself asking "WTF were they thinking?!" so many times while reading through it. I stopped paying attention back when Dragon Heist turned out to be...

This is why I've completely stopped paying any attention to WotC's marketing / hype. It's frequently misleading or just flat out doesn't amount to anything.

Oh! I see. Too late for that!

How do you lock doors?

Yes, that’s what I started doing the second time.

So far I've cleared everything out except the northeast sector. I added more vault flooring to the main area. Built some workbenches and the exercise bike (went for the safe option as my Nora is not an unethical jerk). Then I built a cozy home for my three initial settlers using the largest...

Oh, I don't disagree. It was very messy and, frankly, unnecessary. I mean, I don't dislike the Spellplague as a concept, but the time jump was not needed. They should have kept the Nentir Vale as their Points of Light poster child, instead of forcing Faerûn to fit that same format. I mean, the...

OK, so according to the FR wiki, "On the Feast of the Moon, 1374 DR, Khelben Arunsun brought together many powerful mages in order to cleanse part of the High Moor and restore Faer'tel'miir, a lost city of Miyeritar. In order to make the magic permanent, Khelben ultimately gave his own life...

I think Khelben got killed or something. Also Vajra was technically introduced in 4e, not in Dragon Heist.
