Not a death, but a PC who's been relegated to NPC status: Rhaelle, changeling witch 12 System: Pathfinder Rhaelle and the rest of her party lived in a world with two key things to note: First of all, the country where most of their adventure took place was ruled by a single high-wizard, and...

This week's update is a less-monsterish one compared to others lately, but still fairly scary. The Ifrit Monk/Duelist Bladefinger is a hard-hitting (often to ridiculous degrees) enemy who sacrifices long-term survivability for the ability to tear opponents apart as quickly and viciously as possible.

Our newest update is a nasty undead wizard who gave my own players quite a challenge, and last week's (which I was unable to announce here due to computer troubles) was an equally nasty undead cavalier. I hope you enjoy these two skeletal menaces, and as always I hope you all enjoy. Also, as...

Because I'm normally a DM, and playing lets me get my RPG fix without oodles of prep time (not that I don't enjoy prep).

We've got a new monster up, and it's a powerful one. Go check out the blog for the sweet slayer, a CR 20 Alraune Sorceress 9 Rouge 3

One of my players has already got over $150 into this. I can't afford minis myself, but she's gonna end up with a huge selection that she says she'll bring to game nights.

I've introduced 3 new players to tabletop RPGs today, specifically Pathfinder's Rise of the Runelords, anniversary edition, as I had hoped it went quite well, and I already have some plans for the future with these's characters. One player has played a lot a D&D-esq boardgames before, but never...

Another Friday brings with it a new monster, this time a CR 5 haunted suit of armor. Enjoy!

Run like that, my characters are no and yes respectively. Only romantic interest I've ever had occur in a game was between two female PCs.

I've seen exactly one horrible blow up story, involving a paladin and a cleric. Though in this case the paladin was absolutely not the one at fault (incidentally, wall of text. Sorry for that). Basically the cleric thought that they should be in charge of the group, though the Paladin had been...

I've done the second method twice. It resulted in horrible results for me and decent ones for the rest of the party both times (3d6 6 times in order is a harsh mistress). My waifish cleric, born of the fey, and my plucky bard, prone to bad decisions were both the most fragile characters I've...

Criteria A is difficult to fill for most groups, to the point of being ridiculous to hold as an expectation. It requires a party in which there are no male PCs at all (or in the case of a split party, one where no male PCs participate), and the encounter needs to contain no male enemies at all...

To emphasize a chase mechanic, and that they don't really have the time to map, and that stopping to make an ambush would be a bad idea, try going for the idea of the implacable enemy. Outright impossible to kill at this stage of the game, and easily able to take down the party. Their one...

I've just gotten it today, and I'm thrilled as I flip through it. I won't spoil the plot for anyone who hasn't gotten it yet, but I can honestly say that volume 2 of this adventure shines as perhaps the best volume of an AP I've ever seen. The whole AP is great based on what I've read so far...

This week's monster is a deadly demonic antipaladin (with a splash of rogue for good measure) at CR 12. As always, I hope you all enjoy it.

Bahahahahahaha! Haven't laughed this hard in a while. Still dying of laughter as I type. This whole strip reeked of badass, but those final four panels made it complete, and awesome!

We have another monster of the week up! If you've ever wanted a big, mutant octopus-fish-ghost for your adventures, we've got it here!

I wouldn't call the French in Risk a character so much as a nation, or an army. But that's just me. And yeah, our Hero Quest game got a lot of RP.

Fair enough. People will have different definitions after all.

I played the role of a character in all three. Dexter Drake in Arkham, I forget the names of the two characters in House on the Hill, and the Barbarian and the Wizard in Hero Quest. My personal definition of Role Playing Game is "A game in which you play the role of a specific character", so...
