Crusaders and Marauders
Welcome Crusaders and Marauders!
Please make yourself at home!
- If you are a player, you can create a new character.
- Feel free to peruse the adventure logs and even create your own.
- The wiki is fairly bare bones at this point, but you can also feel free to click on any red links to create a page for the linked item.
Setting : Essentials Nentir Vale modified by home made / home brew / created towns, NPC’s, monsters, magical items and much more.
Plot : Various “Heroes” are journeying individually to the small farming village known as Meadowbrook (a home made town) for varying and differing reasons. (See the PC’s journals for more information.)
The village of Meadowbrook has suddenly become a popular destination for a variety of good and ill intentioned people, monsters and more due to its recently discovered gold mine.
Meadowbrook is located at the end of the road heading south west from Winterhaven. More specifically, it is west of the Gardbury Downs, north of the Ogrefist Hills and south of the Stone March Mountains.
Then : The heroes met up with each other at the crossroads leading from Fallcrest to Winterhaven and are collectively heading south west to Meadowbrook because there is safety in numbers.
Now : After fending off many ambush attacks in the woods surrounding the road, by a local gang of Goblins known as the Rat Fangs, as well as encounters with territorial Bears, ravenous Wolves, curious Hunters and blood sucking Stirges, the heroes are on a crusade to rescue Ignatius William Runn and Ole Mann’s Pearl of Pontification, in addition to whatever other treasures they may find within the lair of their fierce foes.
The Questions : Will the heroes succeed in their crusade to save I. Will Runn, the son of the mayor and tax collector of Meadowbrook? Is the precious Pelorian Pearl of Pontification truly within the treasure horde of the Rat Fangs? Will the party find mellow Meadowbrook before several Brigands from a Battalion of the Brigade of Bane bring brutal beatings to the seemingly defenseless verdant village of friendly farmers? …AND can the current Crusaders truly trust each other when they barely even know each other? What will happen next?
Crusaders and Marauders Comments
Mike, thanks. Nice work on the Wiki and PC updates yet again. The Chugach’s loss (to the Zombie Hulk in the far north) is the gain of the Pixie, Hart (she gets his X.P.).
Nice! Thanks again Mike for being the wizard of the wiki pages here. :)
Mike, thanks for adding primary and secondary places for PCs on the main wiki page for the Marauders. There may as well be tertiary PC placement too.
Poignant journal entry, Matt! Could this be some kind of turning point for the Crusaders?
OK, i got it to work this time. Not sure what changed, I entered numbers and hit “enter” as i had before when it didn’t work. I don’t claim to know technology, I’m just a geologist.
Alright, I’ve tried all that, but thanks though. I wonder if its a problem with my web-browser (GoogleChrome).
Hmm… Well, for me the process goes like this:
1) Click the number/field you wish to change which should open an editable field
2) Type in the new data
3) Click the check mark button next to the field to save OR hit “enter”. I think both work.
Obviously it would help if I could see what happens when you try to edit.
On the Dynamic sheet, the problem isnt that the sheet isn’t there, I can hit “edit” and select a sheet no problem. The issue is that I filled out the sheet at Lv1, and when i attempt to update the sheet, I will not save/change the numbers when i edit them.
You know, I possess a deep vocabulary but even I had to look Bucolic up. :) So, you are saying the Bug Bears are country bumpkins! Well, youse just wait til dem Bug Bears get der paws on yins.
The Merciless Mace was updated again… I really hope that this artifact is something that will fall into the hands of the Crusaders and not a band of bucolic bugbears!
LOL. Perhaps it is and will be all that which you wish for and more. Or will it be a terror to behold? Time will tell. Blood will spill. Flesh will be torn. Bones shall be broken. …And then some.
That Merciless Mace better be the most malificently mysterious maul men may behold. Everytime I check C&M it seems to have just been updated!
If you go to the character page there should be a button at the button for “Edit”. At least there is for me when I go to Reginald’s page and he has a dynamic character sheet.
Does anyone know how to update these “Dynamic Sheets”? I filled it out at Lv1 with no problem, but can’t seem to change the numbers now that I’m at level 2…
Three words, Matt: Google image search :)
The one for Welspo was actually pornographic until I cropped it. I should have known doing an internet search for “attractive goblin” was bound to turn up at least one X rated hit.
The one for Will is actually from the WotC Character Builder portraits, because “generic human” is well within the scope of that tool. But “old prospector type” and “long-haired half-goblin” are not really within the scope of the character builder portrait gallery.
Brom, Love the updates,
Mike, Where do you find these pictures!?
I created a list of the names of many of the NPC’s, some friends, some foes and some acquaintances that the party of PC’s will be encountering over the next few months of adventure. As you meet them, either in town, or on the field of battle, or in a dungeon, or within the woods and so forth, one (or more) of us will create the character BIO for the NPC’s.
Matt and Mike, your creativity and ambition is awesome. Please keep up the good work! I made a few minor corrections to the NPC’s. Other than that, your imaginative ideas will be implemented along with mine. Again, thanks so much. If only a cloning machine were nearby I would make a duplicate of you both! :)
Greetings all Crusaders and Marauders players! As recommended by Magnificient Mike who turned us on to this wonderful site, I just joined mere minutes ago. Soon I will be listed as the DM of the C&M campaign. After that I will have the power to add more DM to player materials such as some story line information, plot hooks, major villians and a few important NPC’s, among other things. In the meantime, please feel free to add some more relevant material as Matt, Mike and Rosstin have done.
Hail and well met!
