Tonneaux Joyeux & Conquest of mythodea
Well...
I can't really talk about sard-le-rouge withou talking about the "Tonneaux Joyeux" and of course I can't talk about them without Conquest of mythodea....
Lets starts by the end.
Conquest of mythodea is a LARP (live action rôleplaying event) possibly the largest on the european continent so far. With over 5000 participant. Where everyone dresses up as a medival character (or better a fantasy character) and lives adventure for a four days of marvel. The event is hold in germany and thier website well tell much more then me...
Well because germany is far.. and a part of Switzerland does not speak German, (well I do, but I care about other you see... kinda stupid isn'it it ?) Well it happened that a push of happy fellows funded a little groupe who's organising a trip to germany every year for the Conquest of mythodea. The groups is composed mainly of frensh-speaking Swiss but other people found thier way and all are welcome.
Meanwhile the tonneaux joyeux (happy barrel) are over 100 people and growing. Even not everyone is present everyears it's a great place. And mostly we play mercanaries. Even there are spin offs like the toten tonneaux who play undead since 2009.
Well back to sard the red, Well its the character I play there. He hold for a few years the diplomatic representation of the groups and it was a funny and dangerous task (which I might talk about later).
in 2008 Sard was seduced by the imortaly of the undead (and the lower entry price for undeads to the game) and has join them. Last year his soul was captured in to a jar by a demon. (Hey dont shoot its just for play, no real demon was harmed). And well we will see want happens next with this and who's gona be possed by the soul of Sard-le-rouge.... Meanwhile I will report. from my bottle.
Speaking of conquest of mythodea, the price have gone allready up a lot... 95€, and if u think that I usualy pay for my gf that makes a lot money.... well fun has its price...

Dungeon and Dragons 3.5 Necromancy
I recently compiled for my Dungeon Dragon 3.5 campaign a small compendium on
necromancy spell found in the libris mortis book, for low level spells
In the campaign the book has been writing by Xerces the necromancer and has been annotated.
Feel free to download it from here

Dungeon and Dragons 3.5
Since I discovered Dungeon and Dragon 3.5, I must say its one of the game that suit me very well. Some say there are too many rules and well its true. But I think its like in poetry the more rules there are the more challenging it is to create a master piece. And I think it can be very hard to be a DM because there is always one spell or one ability you didn't think of. But that is the beauty of it.
If you ask my about the new edition, well I dont like it. Too simple, too squire.. to me it lost all of its old school magic....
OK I wanted to post some player aids.. but I still need to find out how to do that on Blogspot ...

Larp Pax Dei
As one of my hobbies I do LARP (that is live action roleplay)...
in 2001 I co-founded Exfalsio Quodlibet . Since then we have organised a few LARP.
I was the project leader of two event back in 2003 and 2005 called Pax Dei.
The concept was to make a huge battle larp. Five camps (with distingitive concepts and colors) all in a high-fantasy setting where batteling each other for suppermatie. Every camp was led by the Avatar of a God. (This is was juste introduced to resurect the player's so the game does not end after one battle)
The game went pretty well... but since then I didnt manage to organise a new edition.
We decided to skip Pax Dei II (the lost battles) and move directly to Pax Dei IV (is that cheating).
And we hope to give a new episode in summer 2010.
What we are planning for Pax Dei IV (the return of the revenche)
6 Camps
All rules in german (for enabling the german speaking players to join) or maybe in english not yet decided
More interactive Avatars.
New creature and spells in all colors
More Fredom to the player
Simpler battle rules
Simpler final battle
More beer
More fun...
Until then our main challenge is to find a suitting spot for the game since the last location where not as good as we where hopping for....
