I'd be interested in hearing the story of the Thunder River. Does it flow uphill both ways?

Saw that bus again today...either it's stalking me, or it knows I'm a GM and wants a job. Unfortunately, the PCs in my game are 2nd level...🤣

...this morning, and saw a school bus with designator sticker on the back reading "CR27". First thought through my mind: "Damn, that's one tough bus."

For anyone reading this and sitting on the fence, wondering just what kind of GM I might make, I offer you the following excerpt from the character creation notes on Wizards: The touchword for Harnic wizards is restraint. The concept is pounded into an apprentice’s head from the beginning, and...

Thanks, Varanos, sent you a PM. For anyone looking, I'm planning to have some updated info on Obsidian Portal over the course of this week.

As usual, I'm not perfectly happy with the RAW (Rules As Written) XP table provided; I rather like having later levels take longer to acquire, which makes them more meaningful (and somewhat rarer). This stems largely from my more old-school notion that a campaign is an open-ended affair, rather...

Rather than post piles of detail here (and anywhere else I'm recruiting), I'm going to take advantage of Obsidian Portal's campaign management features. You can find more relevant bits at https://a-simple-venture.obsidianportal.com/

From a broadsheet posted throughout the kingdom of Kaldor in the winter of 719 Tuzyn Reckoning: HEAR YE, HEAR YE! Let it be known that persons of various and needful skills and good character are being sought for an expedition to establish a new outpost in the name of King Miginath, to the...

Sounds interesting. Hope you can find players for it.

I'll look forward to it.

I saw the message from you on the GG website, but since you were asking for a weeknight, and I'm running my game on a Sunday, I didn't respond. We're playing every other week (just had our 2nd session two days ago), from roughly 2-10 PM. The next game is currently scheduled for the 17th. If...

Yes, or you can spend feats learning ancient podiatric martial arts skills. Toe fu, anyone?

Granted, but utility powers can be encounter or daily. Speaking of powers... Bacon Foe Paladin Attack 7 You pile sizzling mounds of pork bellies before your foe, dealing grievous wounds as he tries to outeat you. Encounter * Divine, Implement Standard Action Ranged 5 Target: One creature...

You've never had a BLT? A bacon cheeseburger? I agree with the person above...Encounter powers, definitely.

Shadows over the Northlands is now ready for launch...we will be having our first get-together very soon. If you're on the fence, the time to jump off is now! All PHB races, all PHB classes (plus two fan-created ones, the Bard and Druid), 22-point build. Come and have some Sunday fun in Toms...

One pseudo-solution to the yellow background color, since I was (one of?) the ones to complain about it... Instead of a solid yellow color, perhaps make it a colored outline? That way, people can still see something when editing (i.e. red box = editable) but it doesn't drink ink when printing.

Really a super sheet, and I always prefer autocalcing sheets to manual fill. About the only things I find myself wishing are that The colored backgrounds for the ability score in the favorite powers were colored outlines instead, and The light yellow editable areas on the sheets didn't print...

Ah. In that case, it just says "a rest", which to me says a short one would do as well as a long one. But it's begging to be HRed, and as a GM I'd have a tough time enforcing that rule if someone got healed up above 0 after having failed a couple of saves.

If you went pushing through another encounter with <0 HP without getting any further healing, you deserve to be dead. ;) Aside from that, a quick browse didn't show where death saves reset, so if it isn't "when the character is no longer Dying", it certainly should be.
