    Plot transparency

    I think a lot of it really depends on reasonable in-game character knowledge. The rest depends on how much of a jerk the DM wants to be. When I was monitoring character creation for my current game, I generally let the players do what they wanted and accepted what they gave me. It just so...

    Players that just don't *get* the genre

    I just had an hour-long conversation about this just the other day about a long-term Ravenloft game I have been running. Ravenloft is supposed to be a game of gothic horror. Emphasis on the horror part. In order for this to work, the characters must actually experience emotions like fear...

    Why do elves sleep now?

    In something I read once (although I can't quite remember where, so it may not have been canon in the first place and render my whole post a moot point:p), I saw that although Elves trance, DROW actually do sleep, which would explain the mention of slumber in the description of Everyone's...

    Haversack Equipment Damage

    I am a somewhat inexperienced DM trying to run a 2nd edition Ravenloft module with 3.5 ed rules (but that's another story...) My quandry is this: In the module, an NPC creates a doomsday device that ends up unleashing a *HUGE* wave of negative energy and general badness, powerful enough to...

    Looking to Scare the $#!+ Out of My Players

    I have been running a Ravenloft game since March. However, I seem to be having mixed success on being able to scare my players. My biggest issues are: 1. The meta-gamer with way too many ranks in several Knowledge skills that uses ALL of these to try to figure out what they are fighting...

    Dungeons & Dragons: 2. Premiering on the Sci Fi Channel on October 8th.

    No offense, but unsure as to exactly how you missed this one. I live under a rock and I heard about it. "Better than the original" is a good start at least. I'll probably end up seeing it no matter what reviews it ends up getting, if only out of my morbid curiosity.

    [CLOSED] We'd Like Some Mo', Please...Editors!

    I sent an email expressing my interest in being considered for the position last week, on Wednesday, I believe. However, I am saddened to say that I have yet to receive a response. I was wondering if perhaps my message did not go through. Did you perchance receive a message from...
