The Players Corner Archive

I'm the new moderator for this folder and if you don't use any big words I think we will all get along just grand!

I haven't been able to participate, but I heard those silly Kobolds have gone mad! I've seen some of the logs and not only are they talking and making demands, it seems they are pretty talented with those bows and arrows. Who could have known ....I thought they just ran around and tripped over things.

It sounds like fun, but I think it would be hard for me to slice a kobold's head off that was making me laugh so hard.

How is it going in there? Are there "Save The Kobolds" protestors, or is it mostly kill, or be killed?

I was never able to get the answer behind WHY the Fortress had been built.. or how.

I was not able to work on any kind of detant or cease fire.. perhapseven finding out why the Boot was destroyed.

I really enjoy the rare opertunity to RP a situation, and have for 8+ years. But in the last 3 or so years.. the buttheads allways manage to screw it up.

PS: For some reason I can no longer access my old posting registration, and it wont send what my password is to my E-mail.. so I re-reged

Addendum: According to a post today on the official boards by a GM, the boot's still there and accessible. reg

I thought the Kobolds going nutty was a lead-in to the revamped route.

I had always considered the Kobolds as being almost "cuddly". It's so funny that they had all these hidden "talents" and are kicking fannies all over the place.
