ooc: Yeah, I'm good. Farquad moves forward, and the others follow behind him - they're much MUCH more aware that a hole in the fabric of the universe is not normal, but are obeying this quasi-noble because they've bought into this whole feudalism thing. They have their weapons out and...

The squire nods and tries to appear as if he already knew whatever it was that Luther said, and is certain that if the gems are worthless they must therefore be disgusting. “This whole place is just, uh, just full of sorcery. Disgusting!”

To be fair, I am also being lazy because I used the character generator and it gave me five. I only posted four of them, the ones I could remember, in case I was only supposed to do four. I’m not convinced I can get through with only four, given my luck with the game... so I’m glad you are...

The dwarves, Brik and Brak, look through the doorway suspiciously, but before they can step in their two drinking companions, Squire Farquad and his woodsman Boil, stride into the hallway and up to the door. Brik and Brak look at each other for a moment, shrug, then call in. "Hey, uhh... you...

I'm posting mine without even looking, so I don't chicken out and try to get something genuinely interesting the play - one reason DCC is a fun challenge, but painful sometimes. 0-level Occupation: Dwarven mushroom-farmer Strength: 13 (+1) Agility: 14 (+1) Stamina: 10 (0) Personality: 6 (-1)...

I also was part of the open game development. I've also published a 3pp module "Wrath of the Frost Queen", though it's less of a one shot than standard DCC modules. I've played some successful pbp games with it, too! It is designed with a sense of what the author enjoys about RPGs, and that's...

I can dig it. Any rules for character generation?

Me again: I see you've been busy! Any news on your Witcher game?

I second the bump: I found this thread again, and was wondering how development was going. Did the SCAG inspire any changes to the mechanics, with cantrips like booming blade or greenflame blade? I was wondering if you'd consider changing the Aegis of Assault reset time to a short rest. I...

Let me explain further: I blogged a while back about how 5e has well-defined "costs" for abilities. I *don't* think Pathfinder does, but I'm curious what accepted use would say are the balancing features of a given class by Pathfinder enthusiasts.

Fair points. I know that it also depends on the specifics of the abilities: a Fighter used to be just BAB (or, really, THAC0 and that one attack a round), but now we have some boosts and feats; yet full casters can just plain explode everything, turn into dragons/elementals, raise armies of...

I'm trying to gauge the power level difference between a barbarian's Rage and a Paladin's various Aura powers, AND the Animal Companion/Mount ability. How would you kind folks rate an activated ability like Rage with a passive ability, like Divine Grace or the Auras? While I get that a...

Fair enough, and I'll take what I can get! :D

Oooh, I've heard about this Fireinthedust guy. He's real handsome! (unabashed plug is unabashed)

I'd like to try running a WEG star wars game. I'm hoping for a classic feel to it, influenced by the original trilogy and the wealth of materials published for the game, but with the benefit of all the best materials of the modern take on the setting. PREMISE: The game will take place at...
