11-19-06, 04:32 AM Tonight one of my DM's started a new game. It is partly to teach newer players to roleplay. And part just a diversion from hack and slash. There was only one swing of the weapon made and it was to stop a would be asassine. But as with the flavor of Eberron, the assassine was no more than a farmer trying to stop legislation to expand the cogs into farmland.

It was a Lord of Dust that was behind it. Now I am a LN cleric of the sliver flame. So now i have a vendetta against them. And I give major props to my dm. I've been playing over 10 years and it's hard to pull one on me.

But i digress, Eberron to me seems to be a great blend of roleplay and just enough action. I have thourgholy enjoyed it.

11-19-06, 11:58 AM Wel, it was a shift in dming. We didn't make characters til that night. We had to come up with back stories and then he gave out the points to build the character based on the background.

Highlight of the night.....Immortal Rebel Soldiers....aka IRS, that was in someones back story and we all laughed for a very long time. The one liners were so good that I had tears in my eyes for laughing so much.
