Bleh.

Transcribing is so damned boring. BLEH. What's worse is that I'm pretty good at it, too, so it's not even thinking-required, but at the same time, I can't do something else and do this at the same time.

EDIT: DAMN IT, MAN! YOU STOPPED ASKING QUESTIONS THREE PAGES AGO! Why are you still TALKING? Why are you still RECORDING? ARGH!

Also, for NWN players, 'Runes of Blood' is a REALLY good module. It's a fullbodied campaign, that goes from level 3 to, I think, 14, has TONS of side-quests, options for good /and/ evil characters, some romance options, treasure troves that specialize to your class and alignment, and a rich, interesting world with adequate, if not brilliant, NPCs. I recommend it highly if you want an adventure that's got a whole lotta meat.

And yay, I don't have to dress up for the meeting tomorrow. Life has become better.

I just loaded up the 3rd main quest, Hordes of the Underdark. I've only put a couple of hours into it but, so far, I say "blech."

Agreed about the original campaign. Thank heavens for the game's moddability.

Does Runes of Blood require the expansions?

As per your recommendation I started Runes of Blood last night. I haven't gotten far at all; I've just entered the maze.

I must admit that I was a little disappointed with the start. When I read that I would awake, totally unequipped, in a villainous torture chamber I was expecting (and hoping for) a truly desperate situation that I would have to struggle to escape from.

Instead, the very first thing to happen was conversation which amounted to "Hey, I've got a lockpick and I'm sneaking out right now. Wanna come?" I felt a bit let down. I'm not going to let that stop me from playing on, however.
