(And this is to make sure comments still work, although I suspect they do.)

Endgame content takes sustained chunks of time. I'll get that at Christmas. I don't even know WHAT the endgame is like, but Neverwinter only allows you to use about six abilities at a time, so it can't be that tough. :)

axiomatic: That's interesting. There's certainly an RPG, so deciding to restrict the rights now would be an unusual (but not impossible) change in attitude...

I find that when this happens, it's usually a lot of discussion on the part of the players, rather than things that make a long term difference in the campaign world. However, what I do is listen carefully, and note down on an extra sheet of paper the things that are being changed in the world. Sometimes this is very simple - "The town of Skankville has been wiped off the map". Sometimes it's several paragraphs of future policy and diplomatic decisions for the Kingdom of Hounds, but either way, I try to put it into bullets in the same way as my own notes - and then, and this is the hard part, slot it into the folder alongside my own notes.

I spent a day over the holidays going through my notes for the current campaign, and found at least two loose pages of just that kind of stuff, for which it took me a long time to find the correct chronological places.

Smallville. Starts slow, very teenage-y, matures very well, brings in lots of the DC ontinuity as it goes, if you like that kind of thing, and develops very well. I think it's a brilliant retelling of the Superman mythos, and I'm really pleased it's making it to the planned end of its run.

Since Shau is all about the fistwraps, I think they're made from pelts too. I'll send you a batch once I acquire them!

That's impressively convoluted!

Ah, cool. Can you work on Kelethin faction if you've already started on the Qeynos ones? I'll have to eventually do the Qeynos citizenship quest anyway - the eventual aim here is a nice big house in Qeynos.

And of course, I have to claim this privilige for myself: First comment!
