Moorkroft stops walking.
He prayers for light, and it appears about his snuffed out torch.
He continues the search.

Centro-Libertartian, eh? Yeah, I guess that sounds right. I grew up in such a liberal town, so my perspective of what constitutes ''conservative '' may be a bit skewed. The Army is also very different from mainstream society, so people tell me I am way out in left field. Probably because I think the...

HASTY BURIAL

The hole isn't going to be very deep. I just dig it deep enough to contain the body, and then some. I ask the others,"Are there any loose boards? We could fashion a cover board for him."

''Shall we bury the other one right here(indicating a spot immediately to the left of the door) ?''

Rafael: I fully intend on burying both men outside, in the soil. If no good digging tools are available, we can always make shallow graves, then pile rocks atop them to make cairns. I will of course use the proper clerical blessing and precautions against these poor fellows rising as something unple...

economic left/right : -1.00 Authoriarian/liberatarian: -2.00 This is humorous, because I am a staunch Republian, and two time Bush voter. Yet, I feel it was fairly accurate. I am very conerned about many of the same issues as many liberals I know-only my proposed solutions are often very different. ...

I'd get to a town, try learning the language, then acquire writing tools. I'd record any useful stuff , lest I forget it. Secrets about Ravenloft and useful bits of modern knowledge. Perhaps I'd try to apprentice myself to a healer- my EMT training might come in handy. I'd start looking for that Scr...

Moorkroft steps back as the chain shatters. He seems surprised. Then he steps over to the body, and bends down to begin preparing it for burial. '' Let us take him outside and attend to his burial''.

'' What was his name? Was he a follower of Ezra?''

Moorkroft goes to the hanged man, and lifts him by the knees, to slacken the chain, so that Alain [or whomever helps] may remove it.

Yes, Stormbringer is based on the Elric novels. It is published by Chaosium, and uses a variant of the Call of Cthulhu rules system. I liked it, but some people prefer AD&D for running in the Young Kingdoms. There was also a Hawkmoon game, by the same company. It might be out of print now.... Mo...
