    DM Advice - character with partial amnesia (and he doesn't know it)

    Thanks for all the considered comments. I asked for the back stories and specifically asked the players to add in some plot hooks for the campaign. I'm planning on using the slow experience track and adding alot of additional content. This particular player is a good friend of mine (but...

    DM Advice - character with partial amnesia (and he doesn't know it)

    Yes, I think you're right. It's his character after all. Perhaps I'll just tell him that he notices that his journal has a page or two missing that he doesn't remember removing then let him run with that.

    DM Advice - character with partial amnesia (and he doesn't know it)

    I've just started a new campaign (Kingmaker) and have asked for detailed character back stories that I want to explore throughout the campaign. One of my players has really gone to town and has given me a very well-written 4000 word back story which is written in a journal. It talks about his...

    New adventure path from ENP

    One thing that bugs me a little with the current campaign that I'm playing in (Scales of War) is that we seem to be going from level 1 to level 30 in a matter of months (game time). Any ideas of factoring in a way to slow down the levelling of the PCs in the context of their life? Other than...

    Fantasy Firefly

    Since being a fan of the Firefly TV series and seeing "Serenity", I've had the idea of creating a fantasy d20 campaign based around the central ideas of the series. I wondered whether you good people at EN World could help me out with fleshing out the campaign world. The PCs would be fighting...

    Worst D&D adventure of all time?

    Uh ... Its the first time its been mentioned. You're getting confused with the Time of Troubles adventures. Terrible Trouble at Tragidore was the adventure you got free with with 2nd edition DM Screen. Never ran it myself...

    Campaign in a Box

    Another vote here for the Mongoose's Drow War campaign. I'm just finishing reading the first book and have been very impressed with the quality of this campaign. It has very little in the way of dungeon-crawling. I can see lots of oppurtunity for roleplaying and political intrigue. There are...

    DM Buddy?

    I DM'ed my first session with my laptop last night and trialed a few pieces of software for combat management. I eventually found that given my experience with excel, a blank spreadsheet was the most useful. I have, however, this morning discovered the existence of "DM Buddy" but have been...

    Mad Irishman's Character Sheets - alternatives to Adobe?

    This is a similar sheet which allows the saving of the form data even using Acrobat Reader. I actually prefer the format to Irishman's anyway. http://www.darksideprod.com/shadowkeep/products/X2/charsheet/index.htm
