Clinton's Core Classics

THIS WEEK: The Warriors of Light, having defeated their own mirror images, have ventured further into the Shimmering Veils of Pride where they have encountered six duplicate figures and a large peacock.  With combat coming to our heroes, they will need to fight powerful magics and keep their wits about them to succeed. Aristotle casts True Seeing on Reetin with his first turn, but something happened with his microphone and we missed it.  Consider yourselves notified! Aristotle smells like pot.  Hugo borrows fortune.  Reetin can see clearly.  Vrasken belches bile.

THIS WEEK: It's a week of self reflection on Clinton's Core Classics!  With the Halls of Wrath taken care of, there is just one wing left to go - the Shimmering Veils of Pride!  Our heroes may see something they weren't expecting to encounter once they proceed however.  This is the episode where the gang finally starts attacking one another, but maybe not in the way you'd expect!  Tune in to find out more now! Aristotle is a semi-reliable witness.  Hugo warms up the wands.  Reetin yeets his sword.  Vrasken hits the books.

THIS WEEK: The Warriors of Light vs The Warriors of Wrath - ROUND 2! Our heroes have just one more room in the Halls of Wrath to go.  This time, another collection of foul sinspawn-associated casters stands between our heroes and the next wing of Runeforge.  Will our heroes be able to clear the threat, or will they find themselves overwhelmed by infantry?  Tune in and find out! Aristotle is stoned.  Hugo can't fail.  Reetin climbs on the table.  Vrasken is pissed off.

THIS WEEK: The Warriors of Light face the Highlady of the Halls.  Our heroes will need to survive an onslaught of attacks and fierce magics to emerge victorious.  Will they have the mettle to survive the champion of this wing?  Tune in now! Aristotle gets stoned.  Hugo has lots and lots of friends.  Reetin survives angrily.  Vrasken is wrathful.

THIS WEEK: A lady wearing traditional female fantasy armor and a large, flaming Ranseur threatens our heroes.  A Bull-headed turtle monster with giant pincers, legs of a dog and reptilian feet stands beside her.  If they hope to stand successful in their fight... they are going to need to do a lot better than they do this week.  For Fury and Hellfire; Roll for initiative! Aristotle is a little out of it.  Hugo makes his monster grow.  Reetin receives a rend.  Vrasken does some serious damage.

THIS WEEK: After conquering the threat of the Iron Archer, our heroes are met with magical circles that they believe work as teleportation zones.  With bravery and zeal the Warriors of Light proceed further through the Halls of Wrath, to find a small army of soldiers standing at the ready.  With the slashing of blade, chomping of maw and slinging of spells our heroes will need to emerge victorious if they wish to proceed on their quest. Aristotle can't stop blinking.  Hugo touches butts.  Reetin does what he does best.  Vrasken flies ahead.

THIS WEEK: The Warriors of Light proceed down the next wing of the Runeforge eager to defeat the threats present.  It is not long before a large construct armed with an intimidating bow begins to assault our heroes from the far end of the room.  Will our heroes be able to bring the fight to the foe before it is able to pick them off?  Tune in to find out now! Aristotle can't line up his shot.  Hugo makes his monster grow.  Reetin runs ahead.  Vrasken gets in the way.

A Grand Reward THIS WEEK: The Man made of Mithral was no challenge for our heroes, but the Vaults of Greed hold more in store yet.  When one of those dangers is quick to speak to our heroes, a potential fight becomes a diplomatic battle.  When the Warriors of Light use words to solve their problems, they discover details on their surroundings that otherwise might have been missed.  Mysterious pools of pure magic bring our heroes one step closer to having the tools they need to defeat the rising threat of the returning Runelord. Aristotle is effectively a strobelight.  Hugo supercharges his wand.  Reetin checks for traps.  Vrasken is terrifying.

THIS WEEK: The Man - the Myth - the Legend - made from Mithral.  Ordikon the Mage has been caught unprepared by the Warriors of Light as they begin the battle on their terms.  The master of rune magics may have a trick up their wizard sleeve however - our heroes will need to strike fast and keep their heads about them in order to be victorious. Aristotle yeets the barbarian.  Hugo reads his book.  Reetin remembers an old friend.  Vrasken handles the flank.  Clinton's computer explodes.

THIS WEEK: Normally runes are a source of powerful magics, but in our case it can also be a useful source of information.  Our heroes learn of the Runelord of Greed, Karzoug and his plans to survive a world-ending cataclysm.  Taking advantage of both a previously discovered journal and the information shared from their new friends, the Warriors of Light rapidly rush through the Vault of Greed.  Dangers lurk within these halls - will our heroes be able to maneuver without alerting it's inhabitants?  Tune in now to find out! Aristotle has a morale enhancement device.  Hugo gets a makeover.  Reetin gets touched a lot.  Vrasken understands the true language.

THIS WEEK: Our heroes have leveled up once more!  Newly empowered, they gather their mettle and procced back into the Mazes of Sloth once more.  There are bodies to loot and pipes to explore.  Plus, an aquaintance yet to be seen as hostile offers some insight to this wing of Runeforge.  Hidden deep within the maze we find journals and notes detailing the equipment our heroes will need should they strive to succeed against the returning Runelords. Aristotle makes a friend.  Hugo foreshadows danger.  Reetin looks in the mirror.  Vrasken pockets a book.

THIS WEEK: The smells of combat are still strong in what little air is left within these sludge infested sewers.  Summoned creatures harass our heroes and crowd the claustrophobic enclosings while mystical whisperings can be heard from the room beyond.  With half our team incapacitated, our heroes will need to do some heavy lifting in order to stay in the fight.  Will the Warriors of Light be able to triumph and defeat the threat of the Festering Maze of Sloth?  Tune in to find out now! Aristotle resides on the Ethereal plane.  Hugo targets everything.  Reetin is petrified.  Vrasken is not a dragon anymore.  Clinton gets to summon all his friends.

THIS WEEK: The summoned servants of our latest foe are starting to get out of hand - the crowded corridors of the Festering Maze of Sloth can barely contain the monsters of sin and the warriors of light at once.  With one of our heroes out of the fight, it's easier than ever to pick off the intruders one-by-one.  Things are looking about as bad as they smell - will our heroes be able to come out of this victorious? Aristotle is dazed.  Hugo is still scared.  Reetin is petrified.  Vrasken roars.  Clinton cheats.

The air is thick with a foul odor and brackish taste - but it'll take more than some stank to dissuade the Warriors of Light.  With Hugo continuing to be feared from Vrasken's powerful magics, it'll take coordination and cooperation from the rest of the team to wrangle their ally, and take care of anything he might encounter as he flee's. Aristotle follows along.  Hugo is scared.  Reetin brings death to those who wronged him.  Vrasken is scary.  Clinton's been doing this thing lately where he doesn't wear headphones while recording and it makes me, the editor, want to cry.

THIS WEEK: You're gonna want to plug your nose - this episode STINKS!  Strange, filth-covered creatures have caught our heroes by surprise.  When spells are accidentally cast too close to one another, the punishments are inflicted on unnecessary recipients.  To prevail, our heroes are going to need to strike hard and fast.  Tune in now! Aristotle overshoots the mark.  Hugo gets lost in the maze .  Reetin can't pull the lever.  Vrasken has a powerful sense of smell.

THIS WEEK: It's time to get back to that 'saving the world' business.  The journey to Runeforge, however, is one filled with risk and peril.  Even magical means of transportation can fail, and when they do our heroes will need to be ready to face the unknown.  A foul dungeon awaits for our heroes as they return to their quest - will the smells be too much for our heroes to stomach? Aristotle overshoots the mark.  Hugo senses the peril.  Reetin can't pull the lever.  Vrasken has a powerful sense of smell.

THIS WEEK: Clinton's back - which means we can finish our shopping adventure!  The markets and bazaars of Magnimar offer rare and exciting treasures for those who have the gold to claim them. Aristotle tattoo's the gang.  Hugo is filthy stinking rich.  Reetin floats atop his new carpet.  Vrasken has blood money.

KTHIS WEEK: The gang is back in Magnimar, and take a well deserved break from the horrors of the Runeforge.  While in the city, the Warriors of Light take the opportunity to empty their pouches and exchange some jingle for new and upgraded gear. Aristotle upgrades his arsenal.  Hugo helps look around.  Reetin is a big big bugbear.  Vrasken bites.  Clinton leaves half way through the session and never ever comes back.

THIS WEEK: From the plane of negative energy comes crawling a fiendish beast with rage in its eyes at the presence of our heroes.  With the devices powering the Infusion Chamber shattered, this wing of Runeforge has lost it's connection to the shadowy realm it siphoned power from.  This shadowy guardian will fight to the death to defeat the Warriors of Light where they stand.  Spells will be cast, blades will be swung and the rest will fight tooth-and-nail until the bitter end. Aristotle feels likes somethings in his bones.  Hugo makes some new friends.  Reetin has done everything he can.  Vrasken is a dragon.  Clinton forgets to wear headphones again much to the frustration of the editor.

THIS WEEK: With Azaven finally slain, the gang takes a minute to lick their wounds and honor their fallen.  Which is to say they immediately start looting the bodies.  Though the boss may have been defeated, the crypts of gluttony still holds a threat that needs to be defeated.  The portal between the pylons in the infusion room needs to be brought down.  Finding out how will be a challenge. Aristotle stands back.  Hugo thinks it looks safe enough.  Reetin is the universal solvent.  Vrasken shows his knowledge of planes.  Clinton forgets to wear headphones again much to the frustration of the editor.
