You should make it so the bitten goblins become zombies. So you can have a zombie aolclyzpe. (pardon spelling)

I half expected a re-death at the axemistress, but then I suppose Eddie was tougher than that.

Does losing a thumb actually do anything, game-wise? If Eddie can no longer grasp various bodyparts, perhaps it's time to 'retire' him, in the sense of one glorious, bloody battle against overwhelming forces. Perhaps a human settlement for an urban change of pace.

Otherwise, he should retrieve his other arm and exact revenge upon the little cowards that did it in the first place. Or, you know, whatever happens along his path and looks to be delicious.

Losing the thumb doesn't seem to be having any effect on him.  As for the arm, well...  Trade secret.

And I've already got an ending planned for Eddie.  Yes yes, I know, it's not fitting for the spirit of DnG.  But I like Eddie, and I've put too much into him to just throw him away to any ol' death that happens to come along...  Rest assured that I have an ending that I am proud to give to Eddie.

Next character's gonna abide by the rules.  Honest.  I just need to write Eddie the way I want to, once he's finished I can carry on with the previously scheduled programming.


Don't worry, the next character's going to be interesting as well...  But I'll be sure not to make a connection.

I'm not exactly keeping score, but when was the last time you did let the final scene be in the spirit of the topic? Not that I'm complaining; it's the writers prerogative, perhaps even his obligation to take matters into his own hands. Sometimes you can come up with something better than the people suggesting the character introduce his posterior to the business end of a tentacle demon.

Either way, looking forward to what you come up with.

Lemme think...  That'd probably be the hammerdwarf who met his end at the paws of a burning bear.  Liceyi's end got tweaked because I needed to get rid of him quickly, I didn't have the heart to kill Glibitikusree, and I wanted something suitably epic for the Baron to end his tale with.

Is it possible for the next character to combine the "fish-killer" and "Kobold-thrower" personalities? I don't know why, but earlier today I just got this picture in my mind of some guy carrying various fish corpses, flinging them like throwing knives, and actually useing them as his main melee weapon.

Sorta like a fish assassin. Just no stealth, otherwise he'll be too much like the kobold.

Naw, I've already got someone planned for the next character.  I'll see what I can do about the militant fishmonger once he's dead though.

I prefer the good old "faceless adventurer" personally, but I guess characterization has its advantages.

Speaking of future adventurers, i'd like to see a dragon sometime in the future...

A player-controlled adventurer can't blow fire, though.



A dragon drunk?

I'm with Strife. A rock-hugging, dwarf-loving axe-elf who delights in burning trees.

Okay, quick announcement here.  I'm currently bogged down with my guitar practice, preparing for school in Norway, a DF total conversion and a secret DF story project which is thankfully nearing completion.  Well, completion of the beginning.

As it stands now, I don't have a whole lot of time to spend working on Death and Glory, so the earliest possible update is going to be Tuesday.  I might have something from the secret project out before then, but DnG will have to wait.

And the next character will be an axe-wielding dwarf.  I know that doesn't sound very interesting, but I've got an interesting quirk set out for him.
