    How are your barbarians faring?

    Hey all, I've been running 13th age for a while now and my group and I are all huge fans of the system. I will say the barbarian spends a lot of time staggered or worse. I thought it might be the player's reckless play style that was sending the barbarian down so often, but now that I'm taking...

    Ideas for "One Unique Things"

    Well what I do is everyone makes their icon roles at the start of the session. I make a list of the 5's and 6's, who got them and what icon and what relationship. The players should note their rolls as well. Then throughout the session a player can make a suggestion about how he wants to use his...

    Ideas for "One Unique Things"

    I think the biggest misstep I took when writing my own icons was to choose models with less reach than is needed for their influence to be felt even in scenarios that do not directly hinge upon them. Also to place many intermediaries between the icons and the PC's, so it's not the icons helping...

    Ideas for "One Unique Things"

    I used various figures from the Ravenloft campaign settings. There's a full write up in the campain wiki: https://ravenloft-13thage.obsidianportal.com/wikis/icons-of-the-kingdoms-of-mists This was my first 13th age campaign. I learned quite a bit from it and would plan the icons differently if...

    Ideas for "One Unique Things"

    My 13th age PC's OUTs far: Incendious Locke; Dwarven miner who's clan trespassed in the Diabolist's realm. He made a deal to be her herald: he walks the earth telling everyone how great she is. She gave him a magic hammer and there's a 1 in 4 chance that when he lands a killing blow the foe he...

    New Boston Gameday: October 19, 2013! PLAYER REGISTRATION OPEN

    Wow slow one! Ok I can't really run Leverage with less than 5 and it's a pretty hectic weekend for me so it probably makes sense for me to step aside and to fold my game into Setoriuos. Have a great day everyone!

    The Cloud City Job: An adventure for the Leverage rules system set in the Star Wars Universe. The Clone Wars are long over, the Jedi Knights are but a memory, and Emperor Palpatine and his imperial stormtroopers are bringing order to the galaxy. Some malcontents remain. As a gesture of...

    I'd like to run Leverage: The Cloud City Job. Am or Pm is fine for me. Alternate title: wookies make the best hitters.

    GMs: What (across all editions) was your favorite adventure to RUN?

    Tomb of Horrors 4e DM rewards edition. Tweaked it for Eberron by making the tomb itself a kind of warforged - sentient and an actively trying to destroy the PC's within it. I worked several other setting specific details in there as well. But my dressing aside, the reputation of the place and...

    Tell me about Ravenloft

    Thanks for checking it out! The mists, right, I've got some thoughts on those. I want to foreshadow it and make the hero's first encounter with them special. I like the veiled sentience of the mists (or i suppose Mists) and hope to use them almost as a reoccurring villain.

    Tell me about Ravenloft

    Ok as threatened I have started a campaign journal here on enworld where I am blocking out concepts for this far-in-the-future campaign. Still have 14 level planned for in my 4e Eberron campaign so no rush. :) Any thoughts or suggestions welcome! --Z

    Please help me write DREAD questions!

    Hey all, I'm planning a DREAD scenario (that awesome jenga-using horror game that Piratecat sums up brilliantly in his 'Jenga beat up my dice' thread) and I always get brain lock when it comes time for preparing the questionairres that help the players define their character. I know I can...

    Tell me about Ravenloft

    I have 'Masque of the Red Death' which is 4 short scenarios set in 1890's 'Gothic Earth' and I think those would make excellent Dread sessions. B-)

    Tell me about Ravenloft

    Ok that helps quite a bit with getting my head around it. I was thinking that a ravenloft campaign would kind of feel like Gothic D&D cartoon/evil Gilligan's island in that the protagonists are always fixated on escaping. But then, if they don't know they are 'trapped', or are no more trapped...

    Tell me about Ravenloft

    One of my players recently added his RPG collection to the shelves in our gaming space, two Ravenloft Campaign setting hardcovers among them, Domains of Dread and the Swords and Sorcery 3rd edition take on the subject. I've never played or even looked into the setting, but I've started flipping...
