Halfling Heaven World Designer/DM/Player Joined: 12 Aug 2004 Posts: 4576 Posted: Sat Sep 18, 2004 12:00 pm Post subject: Other places of interest. Halfling Heaven is situated on a small desert island. The majority of the Island is dominated by the sands, but small pockets of forested areas can be seen along the coasts. There are 4 different civilisations on the island. 1) Halfling Heaven.

This village bain't big enough fer TWO meadows. Imagine Trubbels surprise to see that his future wife had a doppelganger. The double was almost identical to Meadowlark in every way. The double had a blank expression..... check! The double had bad dress sense.... check! The double had one huge ginger eyebrow that resembled a caterpillar... check! The double did not speak.... Aha... there is the difference! (this post refers to a glitch that copied meadowlark and left a 'double' that did not move or speak but just stood there staring.) _________________ Well Trubbel

Thoughts of the lost. ---The entire village gathered at the shore, each bearing a torch or lantern. As usual, the Temple had laid out a feast of honeyed ham, fresh fruit and vegetables and some of Peony's famous 'ship' shaped cookies. The full moon hung over the still sea, which looked deceptively peaceful on the surface but hid cruel rocks and horrific under-currents. The Gaffer was not well enough to attend, the loss of his son hitting the old man harder than he cared to admit, so Ma Miller addressed the crowd.--- "I am ashamed at myself." she began, " For a while now, I have b

There is only one temple in Halfling Heaven. The villagers all 'worship' the same deity. Saint Marcus - The Halfling God of Food & Indulgence. Holy Symbol - a reclining pig set against a large yellow sun. Clerics that follow Marcus tend to love the frequent 'food festivals' that the temple holds. Food festivals are held weekly and at every given opportunity such as Birthdays, Full moons, Sunny Days and Weddings. The temple believes that good food, fun and community spirit are the most important things in life. Saint Marcus is, as yet, unheard of in mainland Annakol. Howe

A special session was run for Peony, Violet and Tom by HH for Tom to receive his Knighthood and official Champion of Marcus (paladin Champion of Torm) title. Tom, with Peony and Vi saved the oat crop that died and threatened to plunge the Village of Halflling Heaven into a year of Flapjacklessness. Tom, Peony and Vi were taken by ship, captained by Kylon Lyonset to the island of Alisha where they had to abandon ship and swim for their lives. Captain Lyonset did not finish the journey with the Hobbits due to a sail ripping loose with lines the great captain was holding on to and sail

*written by a follower of Saint Marcus* Prints upon the sand One night I had a wondrous dream, One set of footprints there were seen, From Marcus's feet, they surely were, But mine were not along the shore. And then some stranger prints appeared, So I enquired, "What have we here? These prints are large, and round, and neat, And not the shape of halfling feet." "Lo!", Marcus said in humble tones, "For miles I carried you alone, I challenged you to walk in faith, But you questioned me and made me wait." "You would not walk, you would not grow, The wa

Residency The village of Halfling Heaven is restricted for various reasons. Although non-resident halflings are allowed to visit, an actual background which implies origins from the village MUST be applied for. The village is a small community where every resident knows each other, sometimes all too well. It has enjoyed/suffered a rich history which all villagers would know about. (Such as the invasion of undead which killed many of the population, The gaffer pretending he was dying as a joke, Weddings, Funerals, Villagers vanishing, Explorers discovering 'once-lost' places etc.

Over the years, the term 'Fleetfoot' has been adopted by many halflings as an implication that someone is stupid. The fact is, a real member of the Fleetfoot family has as much chance of being intelligent as any other family.... but unfortunately for them, they have become the focus of the 'joke'. Speaking of jokes..... A Fleetfoot is walking along a river. She looks across the river and sees the meadow is sunnier so she decides she wants to be there instead. Looking up the river, she sighs as she cannot see a bridge. Looking down the river, she frowns because there seems to be no

The Thistlefoot Tribe is a barbarian tribe who have recently settled in a sheltered corner of the Alishan Sands, somewhere to the southwest of Farwest City. A curious mixture of races, this multi-cultural tribe has many a tale to tell of its history..... however, these tales were never written down so they tend to change slightly with every telling. Many years ago in a time not so distant, there were several tribes of barbarians in the world. The Bearclaw tribe was a ferocious Human tribe who were extremely territorial, whilst the Panther Clan was a Half-Orc tribe whom, without meani

Lag - What is it?: More properly, lag refers to a delay in information exchanged between client and server, resulting in a hang with breaks immersion and can result in loss of control of one's character, with often unpleasant consequences. Players, however, tend to use the term 'lag' much more broadly, to refer to anything that causes a hang or break in play experience. Decoding their meaning is critical to understanding the problem that they're experiencing, and to fixing it, if indeed there's anything you can do - sometimes there isn't. So, for the remainder of this tutorial, we’re goin

Transferred from the old forum - written by Flamecrow: Drow in Annakolia After a number of talks with Barry and Charissa we've come up with the following writeup on drow in Annakolia. This is in no way everything, but it will give players a pretty good idea about drow and how they are viewed by the general population in Annakolia. Drow were introduced into Annakolia with the game module "Into The Depths of the Earth". Drow in this module were the basis for the current Faerun drow but do have a number of significant differences. Annakolia Drow are much like the drow as described in In

Cue organ music. Scroll The Curse of the Lovers banner. Cue the Narrator. This week on The Curse of the Lovers, Darla, Hero and their group traveled by luxury cruse ship, the Sea Sick Sea Serpent, headed for Farwest City. Some playful on board activities kept our travelers exercised in in good spa condition during the luxury voyage. (Honestly, the Octopus and his friends were just trying to make your voyage more enjoyable and refreshing).

Vanessa the Grey Seer - An abrupt and mysterious woman, she mixed truths with lies to lead people the way she wanted them to go. Never knowing if she was truly trustworthy or not, Darla and her friends were forced to do as she said, as Vanessa claimed that failure to do so would result in tragedy. Vanessa seemingly betrayed Darla by returning her to Fountain City, but claimed that it was a necessary course of action to prevent the death of Hero. Vanessa allowed herself to be slain by Avens nephew, Devon. DECEASED The mystic in training Brandon, wracked with dreams of portent takes up th -

HH gave this information to the whole group - important: ((this is primarily for Ashlinns benefit, as her character has had flashback dreams of Yarryns final days since she was born. However, I am sure the rest of you would like to know what happened to the beautiful blonde elven paladin too)) Yarryn, sent back in time by the Chaos Demon named Harah, found herself at the Temple of the Gold Dragon of Anrys at a time before its destruction. Astounded by its beauty, she wandered through its halls in a state of wonder. Soon, she became aware of a lifeless body near the altar. Upon investiga
