theronAnd Einar got one last night. Of course, the victim was a stoutly barred door, but he still did something like 35 HP to it in one swing (3d12+12 is a lot of hurt for a first level character to dole out).
The rest of the game was similarly marvelous. A (the GM) is an old-school Greyhawk geek himself and the easter eggs were thick on the ground. The rest of the group (the characters, not the players) seem to have decent chemistry for a pack of violent sociopaths who meet along the road. Most of last night's session involved getting to Hommlet and then looking around and learning about what's going on while hanging around the Inn of the Welcome Wench, which allowed A to use a beautiful map he found online and had printed up to poster size. This iteration of the town is significantly nastier than the one in ToEE, as humanoids are not only wandering around openly, but they're effectively running the place. We met a likely rabble-rouser named Rufus who talked us into raiding the local brewery, which had been taken by orcs. We killed a few and took down a drunk Ogre, and that's where we left it for the night. We've got a couple of other quests lined up, but we'll first need to see what repercussions there will be for the brewery raid.
