Through roleplaying the one that antagonizes the foes the most.

Awesome!

I have used AI to attempt to recreate the AD&D lamia. No luck. I get lots of oddly floating body parts or Avataresque looking beings.

Three kinds of elves divided by religion: Light elves worship the stars they first saw upon awaking in the world. Grey elves worship the nature spirits (Green Man of the Woods, Lady of the Lake) they encountered when exploring the world. Dark elves worship whoever gives them power over everyone...

I dislike the three saving throws given regardless of what players do. Saving throws should be rewarded for planning and roleplay. If your players know (GM clues and hints) they are facing a medusa and one just rushes in without a thought, then that player gets the SoS/SoD. If another player...

I give my players a choice of dying or having something bad happen. Bad being potentially anything one might read in a real trauma center report.

My players send me email or IMs to work out downtime activities.

I have a chart the player rolls on. Can get from 2x-6x damage, or inflict lingering effects. Players before meeting Harold Halfman, thought he was a dwarf. No, just an unlucky adventurer who lost so many bits and bobs of flesh that he earned the moniker halfman.

I once saw a picture and model of the medieval London Bridge. Ran the entire campaign on the bridge. The players never left it.

I dream of a Victorian gothic library with Christopher Guy majestic chairs.

It is far more interesting if you have assimar based upon a biblically accurate depiction of angels.

A few things in brief. Uniform experience progression. Classes replaced with backgrounds (Talislanta inspired) Additional attributes 10 to 13 depending upon player choice and chosen backgrounds. Dwarves, Gnomes, Halflings, Humans, Elves, Faeries (custom race), Orcs, (Hobgoblins, Goblins...

I have found that some of the D&D play shows on youtube are much better than what you find on television.

I have added skills. There are 80 active skills, 120 occupational/background skills, and language skills which are dependent upon the campaign. This allows my players more creativity in writing up their characters.

A human with genetic dwarfism. He does not know if he is a dwarf or human, he has only just escaped from the travelling carnival where a cruel half-orc made him perform acrobatic tricks.

I prefer Graz'zt's Abat-Dolor story.

The extremely ugly cleric/wizard takes the "beautiful" parts of the body to make a flesh golem. It's how he gets his romantic dates without having to go to the old Roll a D12 inn of the Shady Lady.

I have player characters romance each other and/or npcs. Sometimes with "constructs". Currently a dwarf cleric/wizard has created a flesh golem with selected parts from beauty pageant winners to be his love.

A campaign with a beginning, a middle and an ending.

Some might say that goblins look like the creepy kids from NOS4A2.
