Hey there folks! I'm looking for a group to play with or be the DM of in Santa Cruz, CA. I need a place to play, too. Anyone looking for another player or a DM?

In one campaign I ran, elves didn't dream. However, the rare elf trained himself to dream, and gained all sorts of neat powers and insight. The problem was that the elf then aged as fast as a human- it was a sort of "curse of dreaming."

Alright, you're cynical. If Bartmanhomer is having fun with us, then I think we're having fun with him as well. So far the thread seems to be quite jovial in nature- except for two posts by a certain duo. :) On the topic of tickling, I would allow it, but there'd have to be some serious...

I loved the strip. :D I think Harry Potter is a terrific series of books, but I really do agree with the parody as well.

We always figured the final step of the ritual was the quite "thump" of the, er, extra organ dropping away, and a triumphant, "Hisssss."

The two ideas I love are these: Lord Greystoke barbarian (aka Tarzan): His parents died on a trip in the jungle, leaving him at the mercy of a band of semi-intelligent monsters that raised him like one of their own. He trains in their ways, learning rather primitive survival techniques...

I made mine. It's the cropped face of this Gravekeeper I made out of clay. I just love his smug expression. :) Here's the un-cropped version:

You could always bring it to a local Druid to be trained. Instead of spending 15+ hours a day, you could visit once every other day for 3 hours or something. The Druid does the training, you get the pet. :)

I never make my puzzles all that difficult. They're more like a small break from the action for me to get a soda and the players to use their brains. Here's one I used recently that went over quite well: Chrystal Password - Throughout the dungeon, the characters have been gathering vials...

One DM (this was back in the days of Middle School) gave the dwarven barbarian a magical Giant Venus Fly Trap named Scree. It could shoot fireballs (neat), but everytime it did so, it would say (in a very rediculous voice) "Scree!" God we hated that plant.

That would take a whole lot of cockroaches... Who would shell them? Is there a profession for Shelling Cockroaches, or is that folded into Craft (Armorsmith)? Could you shell a cockroach, cast Cure Light Wounds to heal it, and then shell it again? How long does a cockroach live after it's...

An ogre. That'd be awesome!

I'd rather have an all-psionics game than mix Magic and Psionics in a campaign. To me, the two aren't incompatible- they're just two methods to the same madness. I prefer sticking with one method of madness, thank you very much. :D

DMAC, that's absolutely terrific. Your control over lines is amazing. And it's a muppet. Ha.

Ha! That's terrific.
