  • Peripheral Terminology

    Not having imbibed Ghosts or dust or forces that condone objective termination.

    I reman as peripheral terminology not unlike the paradoxical sweltering.

    that erupts from one’s grasp

    pre-cellular in origin.

    It is not so much what people suffer that makes the world mysterious; it is rather how much they miss when they suffer. They seem to forget that even as children they made obstacles in their games in order to have something to overcome.

    Keys From The Golden Vault live from Alakazam Comics in Irvine, CA. This week our tabaxi heroes identify with characters from Batman’s rouge gallery in which our party of tabaxi Top Card (rogue played by Glenn) is Cat Women without the slapstick, Julie Newmar (ranger played by Lance) is Ra’s al Ghul, Snow on the Mountain (fighter played by Lewis) is mentored by Two-Face, and Feather on the River (cleric played by Brain) is Killer Croc. It may have been renamed Swallow on the River. Dylan joined with a character–we have hazing rules in place for new players (in this case, we rolled his stats) named Lion in the Pocket (illusionist), who Brian calls Spit on the Ground.

    The Golden Vault museum heist of the Murkmire Malevolence continued mostly with casing the museum and preparing for the actual heist.

    The players drew the Logo of the Museum

    My DM notes are mostly from the beginning of the adventure about the players and the characters.

    There are two ways of knowing how good God is; one is never to lose Him, and the other is to lose Him and then to find Him.

    “To honor and accept one’s own shadow costs nothing and is immediately—and embarrassingly—ever present. To honor and accept one’s own shadow is a profound spiritual discipline. It is whole-making and thus holy and the most important experience of a lifetime.”
