Hello, hopefully this is the right location for a thread like this, but I am trying to create a Science Fiction campaign for my players. Specifically I want to try to make a hard science fiction RPG, or at least to best of my ability, its not a requirement as my players probably wont notice...

I normally agree with the play whatever you want doctrine, hence the fact I'm playing a Gnome Paladin, but this character won't have a player really behind him, specifically because he Is only being created to balance the party, the DM is going to have most roleplaying control over him

Hello everyone, I'm currently involved in a 3.5 game of dnd, and since we have a small party I am give the chance to create another character to balance out our party, insofar we have Me, a Gnome paladin AC tank and a dire badger mount A strength based Orc Archer class fighter who is our DPS...

Hello everyone! Recently in my campaign our minotaur barbarian has gotten bored with his character and is going to make a wizard, and he has been hassling me to keep my promise of making a "astronomer" prestige class My problem is i have no idea what abilities it should have, it would probably...

I have two artifacts that i introduce into just about every campaign i run, i stole the idea from my first DM that put the pieces there but never really expanded on them The Sword of Alpha, and the Sword of Omega, meaning in this case "the beginning and the end" The swords are meant to be both...

Oops sorry bout that Priest - Pathfinder_OGC heres the priest class And i'm not a power gamer, and i wouldn't even consider making an item that gave me true shot forever, as i'm pretty sure that's not allowed anyways. i said i was considering making an item that would allow me to cast it three...

Hello everyone, i've recently started a new game and rolled up a Priest, a third party class, i have the lowest base attack bonus, and a dexterity of only 11. So one problem i foresee, especially at the low levels i'm at, is hitting my ranged touch attacks, and my touch attacks, so i'm...

Your game, your rules, I dont mean this in an authoritarian "my way or the highway" kind of thing, compromise is important, and Players having a good time is the number one thing, but the DM is a player too, Because your the person that has to spend time making the setting and the encounters...

Interesting! Thanks for the replies, keep em comin! I will definitely check out swords and wizardry, more flexibility is always good It has actually come to my attention that a friend has a few copies of 2nd edition dnd material (and i actually own all the spelljammer books which I...

Hello enworld, recently I read a story of Gary Gygax playing a game with a bunch of mods on the forum a long time ago, an kind of got inspired to run a game more from "the roots" so to speak I mean a more dungeon crawl oriented one, course that could be the complete wrong vibe of the previous...

170: when you start talking about breaking your paladin or knights code when it's convenient to you,

Maybe call it a Focus check? Not as cool as the other words though :)

Hello everyone, with half of my current gaming group split and two new players looking for a game to play I've decided I wanted to DM a scifi rpg, mostly homebrew My problem is that Ive never dm'd anything outside of dnd and spelljammer which although is mostly is in space has dungeons and the...

a map cannot help them if the maze is SELF AWARE! every time they head back to the start the maze shifts! hahaha! take that jerks! course that could get annoying for the players, and would require several drawn sets of mazes, Could make a pretty awesome timed scenario, where the maze shifts...

Have you tried a trail of candy? A trail of skittles would work 100% of the time on me Or just leave the option open to her as saskganesh said so she doesn't feel pressured

My friend up in Washington made a random spell generator for my upcoming homebrew game Its more "Roguelike" in nature, due to its inherit randomness (it was intentional), the cost value under the effects is how much more the cost (could) be (EX.$5=a value of 1-5 to mana cost), The damage dice...

I don't force my players to do anything or act any certain way based on their stats, Though as a DM it will annoy me when the 6 INT char is devising strategy or doing something in game that suggests he is of a much higher intelligence, but as i said i won't do anything about it except maybe...

Hello all, ive just recently run into a problem that gas never occurred to me before, as I'm a longtime DM but a new player, my DM revealed to me after only one session of our new campaign that he fudges rolls to make combat more interesting I quickly expressed my opinion that combat rolls...

Well actually a pathfinder Kobold starts out with stealth as a class skill no matter what, and withthe web enchancment we added, kobolds already have two claws and a bite attack so it looks like I lucked out! :D

Actually the races alignment usually just means that's what they're norm is, dwarves are considered a lawful good race and elves chaotic good, but those deviate a lot so as goblin are considered evil I would say that there is nothing that makes them evil forever from birth, So by killing a...
