    Default While the DM's away ...

    I haven't been able to run my PBM campaign for about 3 weeks, and I emailed my players today to say sorry. One of them wrote back, and I thought I would share it with you since I think it is funny:

    [quick guide: Grotisle = Mordor, Blithlargef = Elder Ones, led by Cthulhu & Nyarlathotep, Gyken = campaign world]

    No worries. Actually, Mike and I have been playing without you.
    While you were busy, Sselon and Baric managed to single-handedly
    storm the castle at Grotisle and cleanse it of evil forever. We then
    invaded Vecna's demiplane and gave him a toy choo-choo train, after
    which his heart of ice melted and he became good. With the last gasp
    of his former power, he vaporized the Blithlargef fleet and saved
    Gyken. Meanwhile, Traxed snuck into Cthulu's lair and removed his
    teeth while he was sleeping. The now harmless evil god attended our
    victory Christmas party and placed a star atop the tree, to general
    applause. We awarded ourselves 1 million XP each and advanced to
    Divine status.

    Was this after they tamed the Tarrasque as a house pet?

    Quite amusing.
    It is a joyful thing indeed to hold intimate converse with a man after one’s own heart, chatting without reserve about things of interest or the fleeting topics of the world; but such, alas, are few and far between.

    the awareness of all that he did not know, of all that he had not read;
    and the serenity for which he labored was shattered as he realized the
    little time he had in life to read so much, to learn what he had to know.”
