Remember that story when that paladin held off an army of pissant orcs at some remote mountain pass in time for the Deus Ex Machina plot to take hold and let them win the day? Yea, I hate that story too. However, this thread isn't for that s**t. This thread is for the campaign war stories that warm your twisted little souls, good or evil.
I personally have an evil campaign that I will detail the exploits from later but for now, please add your Rp trials and tribulations. So post or so help me, I will find that basement dweller and transcribe his story of honor and might against characters less than a third his character level into your quivering hides. I mean, I will be gravely disappointed.

How I long, once more, to describe in great detail, the many, many exploits of Illbringer to all of you...But of course the ToS would prevent me...And I refuse to soil the purity of the younger readers. And continue to stay away from GD, girls. Sadly, for so many of my other characters, you really have to be there to appreciate many of my characters. Pierrot is all one-liners and other jokes that really depend so largely on gesture and expression...Oh, how I wish that I'd realized that before taking him over to a text-only game. u..u It seems most of my stories are less martially focused and entirely personality or atrocity-based...But I look forward to hearing everyone else's and will be sure to update all of you if I remember any, later.

My current campaign is based on an spark of Tiamat's divine energy bringing forth the players from other worlds to serve her will and rebuild her glory. Since I am trying to think of how to explain all their exploits at once, I will use outline form.
1. Spent the beginning evading traveling orcish war parties heading to attack Elven settlements.
2. Captured and looted said war parties.
3. Find a fey gate that changed shape and destination based off what side you approached it from.
3.a. Used the distraction of incoming orcish war parties to get past elven guards with little fighting.
3.b. Traveling back through, they did get into a fight with elven defenders who had managed to get initial wins against the orc invaders. The party managed to also kill two large dragons there were helping the elves as well, bringing a body back to sacrifice to bring Tiamat's aspect back to flesh and blood form.
4. Briefly explored one of the areas that was an overgrown temple grounds.
5. Journeyed to a place unimaginatively called the Shadow City populated by tieflings and run by yugoloths lead by an ultraloth called the Lord of Fingers.
6. Struck a deal to retrieve the weapon from a War Troll guildmaster who was running a gang of trolls, jungle trolls, redcaps, and other unseelie fey.
7. Burned down a section of town to lure out the guildmaster, killed him, and then negotiated their way out of being executed while still getting the weapon they had bargained for.
8. Traveled through a war zone in the aftermath of an orcish occupation of an elven city. Then they decided to catch the leader offguard while he was raping elven captives.
9. Disguised themselves as orcs and requisitioned a cart and a portion of the loot, only to stuff the leader onto the cart with a bag over his head, stating he had bothered the leader and they were going to execute him.
10. Researched blood rituals and sacrificial rites to confer the draconic template onto some orc captives to create some loyal followers.
11. Went on a side mission to free a small number of kobolds from the predations of spider-troll hybrids set on them by a draegloth cleric.
12. Snuck down through the mountains into dwarf territory and waylaid a group of snipers on the back of a slaughterstone behemoth.
13. Dragged a number of captives back with them, took control of the behemoth, and transformed one of the dwarven snipers into a draconic follower to get further information.
13.a. Took out a dwarven outpost and then those who were sent to investigate.
14. Used a underground river network to travel to the next dwarven outpost, tearing it up from behind before making graffiti out of the defeated.
15. Used their supply of sacrifices to make a deal with a pit fiend to get an arranged teleport after they made their next sacrifice for a 24 hour boon.
16. Teleported inside the Ghostgate the dwarves use to seal off their homes and then disguised as dwarves to get further into the complex.
16.a. Discovered that dragonborn incarnum users were touring the complex to retrieve the Lady's Breath artifact they came from.
16.b. Released two prisoners sympathetic to their cause and snuck further into the complex.
17. Found and trapped one of the dragonborn and the dwarven leader of the resident paladin guard and disposed of them.
18. Broke their way through a Wall of Stone trap after beating the two hammer archons who set it up.
19. Finally found the other dragonborn and after a pitched battle, caught him before he escaped.
20. Defeated the massive dragon guardian behind the Wall of Five Breaths to get their prize before teleporting out since they were already pretty beaten up and nearly used up for the day.
Tis where they are currently at.
