I might get to run some of my Greyhawk Dungeon after all, since Mark picked Zagyg as his god, and
I think Sparkles may be recieving a summons in the near future.

Oh great, something to increase his sense of self-importance.
Actually I am enjoying the rivalry of vanity that has sprung up between Eric and Mark.
Fabiolus (looking into a mirror): Am I not the most beautiful thing walking the Oerth?
Sparkles (feigning indifference): How many of us here are doing the personal bidding of a god? How many? Nobody else, just me?

We'll see. It could throw some time sensitive ideas I had out of whack. And I don't see at as doing Zagyg's bidding as much as 'pass this test or else'.

It's rare that I shoot somebody down on a PC request, but it's been happening a lot in this campaign. There was a drow, a barbarian, a half-ogre, and a paladin. I really like to DM for paladins, but it wouldn't work with the current party composition.

Don't you guys want magic items? That's twice now (the leucrotta and Grayvin) you've had them in your lap and came away with nothing. Not to mention the information you could have got from Grayvin.

I did not agree with letting Grayvin go, but I went along with Eric. I understood what Eric was thinking, but I thought it was "trying to be too clever for our own good." True, we might spread some animosity among bad guys with that substituted message -- but letting Grayvin go is IMO a big mistake that outweighs that.
If the courier was just a goblin or 0-level scrub, I wouldn't care. But Grayvin was obviously a mid-to-high level guy, probably an evil cleric, and we may not get another chance to take someone like that out so easily.
Why did I go along with Eric's idea? He was so insistent about it, and I know Eric will be more engaged in the game by trying to outsmart the bad guys than he will be with simple ambush tactics.

Scott, where is Oak Haven on the Darlene Map? You had marked what I think is the ruins we explored two hexes NW and one hex N of Badwall, and I think that ruins was but a few miles S of Fair Hill, and they were west of the Jewel River. If Fair Hill is three days march SW of Oak Haven, I would think that would put Oak Haven 60-90 miles NE, and either 3 or 4 hexes north of Badwall, and east of the Jewel River. Is that correct? If so, when did we cross the Jewel River when initially travelling from Oak Haven to Fair Hill? Was that just by some unmentioned ford or ferry or bridge?

I'll have to look for the original map I drew.

In a way it seems like it is Fleak Pingle's destiny to go "Against the Giants," since his name itself is an homage to those pregenerated characters!

When you put it that way, it seems obvious.

Scott, can you calculate how much XP we got from the last game you ran at my house? Remember when we fought the evil cleric and zombie-ogres, and I think a Scarlet Brotherhood monk, in one of the Greyhawk Castle towers?
Fleak is less than 100 XP away from 4th, and currently has 28 hp.
If he levels from that last adventure, he'll be 4th level with 30to 37 hit points, which I think is enough to have a fighting chance against the hill giants.

He'll level for sure. The xp haul was around 2,000 xp each.

Great. Then Fleak will join the expedition to giantdom if he can.
Scott, can you roll a d8 for Fleak's hit points.
