The group of six mortals stands in the scorched, sulphuric
desert of Avernus, the first plane of Hell. They stare at a mammoth iron
citadel, rising malevolently a mile into the smoky air and sprawling over
miles of land; the home of Bel, Pit Fiend Lord of Avernus. Thousands of
armed, evil devils march the sands and wheel through the blood red sky,
searching for the tiny adventuring party:
“They won’t be expecting a frontal assault.” – Martin (June 21 ,
2003)
"As long as I have my holy symbol, I can control it." –
Anya (June 21, 03)
"Wasn't that an astrosphinx that chain lightning-ed us?

idea." - Likeyl (Jan 9, '10)
"He's gonna release the thingy...that's going to devour
cities... not people... ciiiitiiiies." - Kendall (Jan 8, 2011)
"Does anyone want to turn around and go
right after the vampire?" - Likeyl (Jan 8, '11)
"We externally hemorrhage quite a bit." - Kendall (Jan 8,
'11)
"Dibs on the sword!" - Martin
"You're 'calling' the Sword of Kas?" -

"Are you able to call out?" - Raina
Nightwhisper, Elven priestess of Corellon Larethian

"We're not fighting
the dragon. We're just getting the sword and getting out." - Likeyl
"HA HA HA HA!"
- Martin & Kendall, in unison (Feb 19, '11)
"So they'll provide a distraction for
the 1,500 hobgoblins while we sneak in." - Kendall
"Sounds like a tremendously bad idea." -
Demmi (March 26, '11)
"Wait... what about
runes?" - Martin (March 26, '11)
"I'm thinking finger of death won't
do much good. You know, against a vampire." - Kendall
"Sphincter of death?!" - Demmi,
mis-hearing (March
26, '11)

in unison
