    In what module did the dragon get freed?

    Hi Mary!

    The old module from the last campaign was called “A Host Divided Against Itself.” IIRC it was the penultimate event of the last into the concluding BI.

    Hello,

    Back in the old campaign, we did Critical Events infrequently, but when an event was held at Origins or Gen Con, I would get feedback from the GMs at the various tables and tabulated the results over the weekend.

    The adventure “A Host Divided Against Itself” had the Dragon element and its possible release, which I kept a close watch on as the various tables finished.

    Towards the end, I remember that the tables were equally divided between those that released teh Dragon and those that didn’t. (For those that didn’t play the adventure, the release wasn’t necessary to complete the primary goal).

    I thought I was going to have to flip a coin as to what happened in canon, when one last table came in and stated that the Dragon was released. And to make things even more interesting, one of the players at the table ran a Tultipetan dwarf.

    Needless to say, the irony satisfied even my penchant for poetic justice. \":-)\"

    I’m really wondering now if the player of that dwarf is still in the campaign. I’d hate to be him.

    Henry can I assume that the Dwarves of Tultipet followed the Oracular Sect of Larissa? That would seem to be indicated by what I can infer from the text on pp. 37 and 109. As I mentioned in an earlier post any information about their relationship with Larissa would be appreciated by those of us looking to play these dwarves.

    I’ve noticed that all followers of Larissa whether Sensate or Oracular are given no armor proficiency (unless I missed something). While that makes sense for the Sensates, I recall the Oraculars in the old campaign could wear armor. Just wondering about this. Thanks!

    Yes, the Oracular aspect of Tultipet has been well established. There are surely SOME hedonists in the population, but that never seemed to be their major aspect.

    Michael,

    Cody is correct, the culture of Tultipet revere Larissa and Her Oracular tradition, but I think you’re confusing a cultural focus with a limitation on what a Tultipetan can be/do. There are Tultipetan warriors, rogues, and priests of the other Gods as well.

    In fact, many (not all, of course) question their fealty to the Divine Harlot given that while they were granted the ability to see the future, their own fate was not revealed to them. This has caused some to turn away from Larissa and embrace other patron deities, such as Neroth.

    I refer you to the Codex Arcanis chapter of the dwarves for further information.

    Thanks Henry, much food for thought….a Nerothian Dwarf….I could have fun with that. Will need to discuss this with my roommate.

    Maybe I missed this somewhere but has it ever been stated (other than the fact that they have inherent talent for divination) why the Tultipetans are favored by Larissa? I wonder if there’s anything in their history about visitations by either Larissa herself or her servants back in the day (say around the time the Dwarves/Celestial Giants agreed to watch over humanity). Also I don’t recall where the Tultipetans fall in that regard. We “know” the Solani and Tir Betoqui were the worst offenders and that other enclaves were not happy with their behavior. It might help explain how they would regard humanity. At least in a general sense.

    On a related (at least Dwarven) note as I recall there’s something going on (or was) between the Tir Betoqui and the Kio. I remember something to the effect that while there’s no overt enmity between the two, they do give each other a wide berth. Thought that was curious.
