About This Game

This will be a Barbarians of Lemuria Mythic adventure for 4-5 players. All types of characters are welcomed except spellcasters and characters should be of human origin. The posting rate will be 1-3 posts a week. This will be a high-adventure, action-packed game with a fair degree of social interaction. System knowledge is preferred but the group can help players willing to learn the rules. Players are expected to be friendly and sociable, and while the characters should be sociable, PC behavior can range from good-natured to amoral - but no immoral, evil characters are allowed. PC backstories are optional and if provided, should be 'skirt-length' (long enough to cover the important parts, short enough to maintain interest). Recruitment will run until 5/25/23 or shorter if we get a good group of characters quickly.

He found himself exchanging coin for more of the dainties faster than he might have if he wasn't road weary and bouncing upon an ill-tempered kroark. Soon, berry juice festooned his beard and face. Mouth still full, Karim responded to Elkor with a shower of biscuit debris and wide eyes. "If they have enough room for more than one, I should enjoy their hospitality! Vahanna? Adhra? Will you be coming?" OOC Including the mention of Adhra here still until we know what to do with her character.
  5. I'm back, but playing catchup with business. A number of small crises have arisen. I should be able to post soonish. Turkey? 🦃
  6. I'll let the PCs talk and interact with Parsool. If you want something specific, just PM me.
  7. Cool! I'm updating today. Three PCs is more than enough 😉
  8. The past few days had been grueling. The caravan had ridden hard to cover the last few leagues to Parsool. Elkor was riding atop one of the bipedal lizards that the group had encountered just a few days prior. The barbarian still had a scowl on his face from that encounter. Two days ago: everyone had an unexpected but equally satisfying laugh when Elkor's attempt at 'breaking' one of the 'dragons' resulted in the Valgardian being bucked into the air and landing on the ground in a dusty heap! The barbarian glared at his companions, stood up quickly, wiped himself, and blew a stray piece of straw from his brow. He walked with determination toward the kroark that had thrown him to the ground. As Elkor came within arm's length of the beast, he punched it on the side of the head. The barbarian landed a devastating blow on the beast's jaw, knocking it to the ground and momentarily rendering it unconscious. He turned and then took some of the tack that was taken from the fallen horses and put it on the slumbering Kroark. The beast was a bit more sociable once it awoke, allowing the barbarian to mount and ride it as if they had been together for years. The memory brought a smile to the Valgardian as he patted the beast on the head and rubbed it gently. Now that they had entered the city, Elkor was mesmerized by what he saw. Parsool was one of the most exotic cities he had been in. The worked wooden buildings of the city reminded the barbarian of home, but the smells were still new to him. The Valgardian rode up next to Karim, who was even now being assaulted by vendors selling their wares. "How does the wind ever get into this place? So many bodies cramped together reeks of dirt and sweat." An old woman approached and offered Karim some biscuits. Even Elkor had to admit they smelled very good and was about to reach down and take a couple before two very attractive and scantily clad women strode up to him with smiles on their faces. He turned to Karim, "Where will you be staying? I think I will accompany these flowers to their home for the evening." Regenerate
  9. Im still here getting ready for hunting season , its takeing up more of my time than I thought. Will try and get a post out hopefully tonight
  10. Hey all, I hate to do this but I am going to drop from this game. To be blunt, I'm just not having fun. I had previously expressed some of this and gave it more time to brew, but the feelings are the same. Catch you all on the 'Weave.
  11. The caravan slowly rolls through the city's main street the wagon wheels clicking in rhythm along the cobblestones. On either side the many shops and restaurants of the city are well-lit by lanterns and several crowds of people wander the street some gazing at the passing caravan. A few travelers who entered just before the Lysorians stop to chat with merchants and courtesans meeting them along the wide street. The adventurers had indeed gone from the wild desolation of the plains to a vibrant city that never slept -- Adhra: Two well-dressed men approach the riding adventurer but seeing her close they pause eyes wide! They mumble to each other and walk alongside Adhra offering her golden necklaces and perfumes, "These are the finest in the land! Look! We draw from the best Lemurian traders! Smell this!" Karim: A basket-wielding young woman in robes walks besides the riding adventurer offering him fine-smelling biscuits, "You must be hungry from your travels. Please try these - the best buttered biscuits in all Parsool. I have berry jams as well ..." Vahanna: A tall robed older man walks up holding silken robes in both hands, "Dress like a noble for the lowest fees in Parsool! These silks will make you feel as divinity!" Elkor: Two attractive women stride up to the adventurer as he rides smiling, "Such a big strong warrior! Surely the road made you lonely -- my friend and I can provide the very best companionship on a night like this ..."

  13. Eric said the problem was fixed. Can you see all my images now? The Parsool experience is akin to being mobbed - seems everyone has something to offer for a price ...
  14. They're working on Image-sharing now.
  15. You guys can't see my images?
  16. I'm not sure, i've been at work until just now so i couldn't dive in or check discord but it seems not.
  17. Are the powers that be aware of this do you know?
  18. This is happening across the site right now, images aren't showing anywhere - unless, i think, they are hosted somewhere else - so if they are uploaded images, they aren't showing.
  19. can anybody see the image I posted?
  20. Strange that the last post’s images are not displaying for me. In any case, I have a full weekend, Thurs - Sun, and probably will offline for most of that time.
  21. sorry I Dropped the ball on this one I will include some catch up in my next post. who wants to ride one of the lizards? since this is our game can we say they look more like the ostrich Dinosaur
