And here’s the HP poll. Let’s say it’ll end on the 17th. Bhaalson Remodel will get the full carry over effect here, obviously, of 764.
A Fate Touched in Middle Earth – HP/Tolkien crossover: Thorin and his detached forces face a hard choice and must use the runic array that Harry has created for them to mixed results. Meanwhile, Harry closes with the lands currently being fought over and is nearly killed by a pair of dwarves who sees a human and decides not to ask questions. A horse is discovered, hastening his journey, while Thorin, with help from the Blackbeard forces, breaks through to the rest of his army, only for the battle to become general as the enemy press in hard. Harry arrives, attacking the enemy from behind, forcing a hasty retreat of it’s officers, and the break this causes in the Easterlings organization allows Thorin respite and Harry time to join the army. Saruman asks some questions, Harry evades, and Thorin and his Nâlbarâk Râdûn plan. The siege weapons of the dwarves cause havoc as the battle is resumed, with the Easterlings pressing in hard both on horseback and on foot, until a spell from Harry messes things up for them most egregiously. Saruman shows he is excellent at manipulating fire and the Easterling host suddenly faces a battle on all fronts, resulting in a turning point in the campaign in Blackbeard lands even as elsewhere, the Stonefoot House faces the real mind behind this war.
Bhaalson Remodel – HP/Gamer/Baldur’s Gate crossover: A certain Harper arrives in Beregost to deal with the Soultaker dagger, taking the opportunity to speak to Harry, showing far more knowledge of Harry than Harry can glean in the reverse direction. Despite that and some revelations dropped on their laps, the rest of winter passes without further issue, with Viconia and Harry enjoying some time together while the whole group grinds out a few stats. When the roads and paths start to be less mud and and ice, Harry, with Jaheira’s help, decides to head north, first to the Friendly Arm Inn, then northwest into the Cloakwood Forest, a forest housing a silver mine which may be connected to those behind the Iron Ore Shortage, and also houses a group of Shadow Druids that Jaheira feels needs to be checked on. The journey to the Inn goes smoothly, which is made up for when they are ambushed soon after leaving the inn by a force that should have been up to wiping them out, but thanks to Harry’s AAS skills, doesn’t. Entering the woods two weeks later after several nasty storms force them to slow down, they enter the Cloakwoods, finding someone both in need of aid and willing to give it, although not without severe issues with the existing group forcing Harry to put his foot down as a Paladin of Tyr for the first time in the realm of justice.
