It could also be a free download or any other online source. We're just looking for something we can start and finish all in 8-10 hours. A good way to wrap up our 3 years of roleplaying together. Kai Lord, what makes Castle Amber so good? Thanks for any suggestions.

Check out any of the books by Guy Gavriel Kay besides the Finovar Tapestry. I think his best is Tigana. Followed by: Lions of al Rassan, A Song for Arbone, and his duology Sailing to Sarantium and Lord of Emperors. They offer a fresh look and incorporate fantasy themes from historical times and...

I have tried many of the starts (and played them as well) that BlackMoria listed. I would recommend another possibility. Before play begins have the players entwine their backstories. Have them come up with a reason they want to be together and why they share similar goals. I think adventuring...

I've been running this now for about 6 sessions with a party of 6 characters of 9 - 10th level. They are now 10th to as much as 12th level. They are in the lower prison and about to enter the monster zone. I have upped the CRs and challenge in a few places to keep it interesting for a group of...

Power is Dominion. All power comes from being able to make others bend to your wishes and preventing others from making you do things.

Good stand up reply. Sorry to ambush you. I'm looking forward to a clean slate myself.

Elf Witch, Tell them the rest of what we talked about. Some questions you should answer: 1) is it just the Paladin's problem or even the Paladin's PC's problem? Or does it take two? 2) does anybody else besides you and your roommate have a problem with the paladin? Is is true to say that the...

Thanks for the prompt assistance. You guys rock.

Hi everyone. I love EN World and wanted to finally become a Community Supporter so I clicked on the link found at the top of most EN World forum pages "Become a Community Supporter" This led me to an RPGnow.com website with the following instructions: 1) Ensure that you have a regular (free)...

Not to mention this sounds EXACTLY like what Kenneth S. Hood created. He even called it "Skills-n-feats" psionic system. It was designed to integrate with his skills and feats martial arts system as well. If you've ever heard of the Grim-n-gritty system, he's the guy who came up with that as...

Our group used Grim-n-gritty (heavily modified). We allowed class AC bonuses to stack with AC progression from class. However, we treated it as a Dex bonus. So heavier armor with a low max dex bonus made you a really easy target (as it should be). Also don't forget the -4 to AC for wearing...

We reworked many parts of the system so that we could have DR armor. We started with the grim-n-gritty system (excellent) and went from there. One thing we did to specificaly address the issue of higher BAB not being worth much if most targets were not getting much of an AC (we called it...

I am filled with a great sadness. For today I have reached the end of this story hour. I began it at the beginning of last week on the advice of one of my role-playing buddies. He was right when he told me its one of the best, right up there with Sep's. Thank you so much Destan for writing this...

Couple of ideas (some of which I've actually tried out): Don't allow a spell caster to take the same spell casting class twice in a row. Arcane casters can go back and forth between Wizard and Sorcerer (if they want), Clerics multiclass very well with other classes (including Aritocrat and...

See? This is why I don't like playing with "older" players. Always causing trouble! So closed minded.

Elf Witch, I live in South Florida and co-run a game. I was about to suggest you might like to sit in and check out our gaming style when a careful reading of your posts leads me to believe you're already in our game. But here's what threw me. You said, "In our group I often find myself...

How my party handled this I ran my group through this same adventure what seems like two years ago. We had 4 guys and 2 gals in the group. The guys were deadset on killing the kobold babies. The girls would have none of it. After much foot stamping and out right threats the ladies got their...

Wow Paka, If I ever run a session in Midnight (doubtful since my group likes things a bit more bright and hopeful), it will be in your Midnight. Thanks for the great story and inspiration.

Crud I just got all caught up. Curses.
