Lichdom looms quite near
My inevitable descent towards lichdom has reached an inescapable point of no return. Today is my 50th birthday.
I only wish I had retired sooner!

You just have to wait for your phylactery to arrive. Congrats on your Con score reaching zero.

Wow... never realized how close our birthdays were. Good to know. No matter how old I get, I can console myself that you're always 16 years and 1 day older.

so where does turning 32 on the 29th put me
Even a man who is pure of heart
And says his prayers by night
May become a wolf when the wolf-bane blooms
And the moon is full and bright

Just saw this, and I bow to your newly gained point of wisdom, while the constitution, well...
Happy 50!

Thanks all!Joël of the FoS wrote:Just saw this, and I bow to your newly gained point of wisdom, while the constitution, well...Happy 50! Joël
... and to refute the supposition on my newly reduced constitution,
To celebrate my 50th, I have been in training for the last 6 months, preparing for a planned & much anticipated expedition. I have exercised like mad & followed a very strict diet, to the effect that I lost 50 pounds and 4 inches off my waistline. I flew to Oregon right after my birthday last month, where I went on a 50 mile solo backpacking trip, 5 days alone in the Three Sisters National Wilderness Area, following the Pacific Crest Trail, and where I also climbed the 10,000 foot Middle Sister mountain.
Anyone care to see some of my pictures?

Man, that's discipline! Congratulations on your birthday and the fantastic way you celebrated it!

Way great of you Jim! My father trained for a year before his 65th birthday to climb to the Everest Base Camp in 2008. He raised nearly 14,000 dollars for the Children wish foundation too!Catman Jim wrote:Thanks all!Joël of the FoS wrote:Just saw this, and I bow to your newly gained point of wisdom, while the constitution, well...Happy 50!

Woefully late I am, but friendly as ever are my well-wishes for you, old friend!
BTW, cool pics. My summer is spent in libraries, so: Envious Rafe is envious.

Happy Birthday and congrats on the many miles you walked. I'm 30 1/2 and I can't do that.Catman Jim wrote:My inevitable descent towards lichdom has reached an inescapable point of no return. Today is my 50th birthday.
OOC: Let's not forget, in the real editions, alhoons are NOT liches! No matter what the 3rd and 4th edition will have you to believe. That's misinformation our agent spreads for adventures to think they have to locate our "phylactery" first before taking a pass on us!
