I would think racist is a subtype of bigot. There are plenty of non-race-based things that people are prejudiced about.

I play with three different DMs and run several groups. I'd say that they are, respectively, 3, 1, 1, and for me, it depends on what the party is doing- I'd say on average a 3 but can be anywhere from a 1 to a 5 based on circumstances.

A bit of both! I've converted the monsters and npc appendices. The rest will largely be on the fly, probably with a few bits of advance work between each session. One of my biggest changes is stripping a lot of magic items out. Man, 3e loaded you up just to have you keep up with the math!

Hey, I'm just getting ready to do this myself! No, I haven't looked at the document you reference. I'm doing it all myself.

I'm running a homebrew system that has eliminated bonuses or penalties for ability scores. It's working great, but it's designed with no bonuses in mind.

They thought they had won.

Fair enough! I think it is. Minions are simpler than standard monsters, are designed to eliminate the need to track much, and are satisfying to mow down in large numbers. IMHO, anything with more than 1 hp is not really a minion. YMMV, obviously. Is there a nearby location they can enter from...

1 hp. Otherwise, you're gonna have a ton of unnecessary tracking to do. The whole point of minions is that they're one hit kills. I wouldn't worry too much about hp-dependent effects. Just throw in another wave of minions.

Scott Adams, creator of Dilbert, has died.

The novel Perdido Street Station shows a group of adventurers and the way people view them is much like you describe. Well worth a read if you like weird urban fantasy.

I had to save it as a word file to get it to upload (it was originally Open Office and I'm now working on it in Libre Office) so it may have some formatting issues. But here you go!

I thought it was too linear- even for a 4e adventure. King of the Trollhaunt Warrens and Demon Queen's Enclave were, I thought, really good.

Credit where credit is due- as terrible as most 4e adventures were, they included descriptive text (what was once boxed text) that specifically called out changes based on what direction you might have entered from or what your Perception was. I remember several "If the party enters from the...

Anyone familiar with the randonautica app? I saw a couple of Youtube videos about it and it got me interested. I'd be curious to hear about other peoples' experiences with it, if anyone has had any.

Came to the thread to post this. We've lost another of the greats.

Dragon Delves. I'm considering the new starter set with the updated Keep on the Borderlands, but I'm playing through it at the moment, so I don't want to read it and spoil anything (even though I have read and played the original I don't know how many times).

Merry Christmas to all of you!

I love the thri-kreen, but I am 85% sure that they are a rip off of Arduin Grimoire's phraint.

Yeah, I have seen a few of his videos. Good stuff.

I'm excited to see what kind of interesting character I can build. Tied to my strong preference for rolling stats in order, I'm pretty sure I end up with a cool, fun, and high-comedy-potential pc.
