Last day.. *sniff*

Today is my last day of vacation. I've had fun these past 10 days, but I'm going to have to face the music tomorrow. (And I better... I left money so Tim could replace our broken CD player.)

We begin our "alternate" campaign today. You probably saw his background get posted last night. It's really a misnomer to call it an "alternate" campaign, since we're going to be in the same game world, with the same DM, at the same time as our original heroes. It's probably more accurate to call it - borrowing a term our DM used - a "tandem" campaign, since we're going to play in one, and then switch when we reach a proper stopping point, and so on. Interestingly, this works into his overall story, to have two campaigns running like this. So, in a way, it's actually one uber-campaign.

I haven't posted the session log from last week. I will get to it before Wednesday, since the memory of it is fading from my mind, and today's non-related session won't help matters at all. Until tonight, folks...

Quick after-game update..

It sucked. Oh, I had okay fun at first, since I got to loosen up, and cast spells. However, something bothered me through the whole night, just a bit. I don't think I nailed down my character's personality tonight, and that pisses me off. My mood wasn't helped when I made a crack about another player's character dealing subdual damage to a rampaging dire ape, and that player tore his sheet up, and threw it away.

The player then grinned, and after a few moments, began to play from memory. The damage was done to me. I don't want to TRULY hurt someone, and the thought I might have really fucked with me the rest of the night.

I didn't take squat for notes, which made me wonder about my dedication to this character. I mean, I did a 13 page background, and I didn't even bother to lift a pencil. That's not normal, and I have to wonder.

Oh well, perhaps it was just the fact that I actually wasn't bound by the "Code of Conduct" that a paladin has to deal with. I was able to really let my hair down, and go. I should be fine by next week, right?

I'll have a session log for last week's game in Stahl, and - after consulting with Stephen for names - I should have this week's Valdar log, too.
