As one who has played in more than one of Raven's campaigns (the Lakelands (as Firestar), which has thusfar gone to about 4th Level, and his World's Largest Dungeon campaign, which went to about 5th Level), both of which started at 1st Level, I would like to make a pair of points. Firstly, I...

Hisssss! You have displeased Tiamat! Dragons must be all-powerful! Curse the giants! Cuurrrssssse themmm!!! :] :] :mad: :] :] Seriously though, I have often found that smaller, more cunning dragons could present an especially well-played challenge to PCs (this October will mark the...

Hmmm....Intriguing, but considerably more difficult to rhyme-synch with Stan Bush's '80s-'90s rock lyrics.... ;) With regards to the job of designing dragonkind (if you will pardon my penchance for punnery) your answers provided quite a revelation! The idea of a dragon/wyvern/hydra is a very...

They also serve, who only stand and wait. I don't mind Elmore; his work has an elder feel to it which speaks to D&D/AD&D as a whole rather than the more specifically '3rd/3.5th Edition' cover art we've usually gotten in the last seven years. The poses may be static, but I think that's entirely...

Oh dear, it looks like I just missed wishing you a punctual happy birthday (bloody time zones and whatnot), Gary. Well, if it helps make it up, I'll try and remember some of a song I helped write about you years ago: Sung to the tune of Stan Bush's 'The Touch' from the original Transformers...

That does sound quite refreshing; I also am used to being the DM almost exclusively (and thankfully have learned much about the vocation since I was 14 (although thankfully the Michelle's Chaos Wind necklace was charmed off of Merlin before it ran out of charges)), and fantasy campaigns with...

Ah, the joys of too much XP Edena's tale of the constantly-doubling experience awards reminds me of one of my favourite mistakes in AD&D, made when I was but fourteen: One of my players of similar age played a Mage named (uncreatively but surprisingly-appropriately) Merlin, and made liberal...

How sweet it is Reading the intricately-realized quality of your campaign world just makes me want to play again all the more, to have some level (2 or 3 presumably, yet one may dream) of effect on it (hopefully for good this time, as opposed to for awesome (what with the whole Bael Ebrous/Soul...
