It always rains in Nuln

Gotta say, I really enjoy these trips down the memory lane. There is something incredibl pleasant about remembering the coolest, most interesting player characters that one had a chance to encounter, during his years as a game master. Today we continue our journey through time and space, visiting yet another batch of my favorite Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay heroes. This time we take a look at the original characters created by my Roll20 group, and how they've managed to leave a lasting impression in my mind. 1. Lukas Kohler, a hardcore survivalist from Talabecland (played by Andy) Lukas Kohler (artwork by Jason Brisken) If there ever was a "hero" who defied death time and time again, laughing in its ghastly face, it was Lukas Kohler. A syphilitic charcoal burner from the rural province of Talabecland, Lukas decided to leave his small hovel to pursue adventure and gather riches. What he found was death and danger at every corner. From rescuing a little girl fr...

My trip down the memory lane continues with even more, memorable WFRP characters! Let's take a look at a few of them, and enjoy the tales of their deeds. This time we're covering the heroes of my first playthroughs of "Terror in Talabheim" and "The Thousand Thrones", as well as the Polish-written campaign - "Lord of Winter". There are quite a lot of them, so I will describe the most interesting ones, the ones that I still think about to this very day. Let's take a trip down the memory lane, shall we? 1. Lukyan Aleksandrovitch Yakov, Kislevite spy master (played by Martin) To this day one of my favorite PC's of all time. A ruthless Kislevite Checkist (posing as a Imperial merchant) with low moral compass, and a low tolerance for fools, Lukyan survived 6 chapters of "The Thousand Thrones", one of the hardest WFRP campaign ever written. His task was to find the miraculous child and asses the threat that it posed to Kislev ...

So far I've been reviewing only short scenarios for WFRP. So let's change that, shall we? I'm going to tell you about one of my favorite campaigns for WFRP 2nd Edition - "Terror in Talabheim". Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay had many great campaigns, made for it over the years. Some of them achieved legendary status, like the famous "The Enemy Within". Others however, were not so lucky. "Terror in Talabheim" is in the second group, and unfairly so, I might add. This is a really excellent campaign and sourcebook, all in one. I just love those freaky covers so much! "TiT" is divided into two parts. First we have a section, detailing the history of the ancient city, supposedly created, when Taal brought down a mighty dragon from the skies and the resulting impact created the crater, in which the city is located. Talabheim is pretty unique, when it comes to settlements in the Empire, for the fact it is almost entirely placed within ...
