Did someone really just ask a question about gricks?

Hmm, on second thought, this would be just as likely given their new "core status" in the MM and the fact that they drip Primal flavor as well. Shadar-kai seem to have an oddly strong following among the folks doing the design, however. At times it seems they are almost trying to coerce a new...

Think on this one people...the second PHB is going to bring us the Primal power source, so the following make a lot of sense: D: Drow (because millions of Drizzt fanbois have disposable income) G: Gnome (the Bard returns, and he is still a guh-nome!) G: Goliath (another big race, very much a...

Thanks. I felt we needed a little tension breaker after 800+ posts or so. Oh, Jack Chick also told me he was very upset that the succubus was mislabeled a devil in 4th edition...the ones that regularly visit him felt their demonic heritage had been slandered quite intentionally by WotC. For...

Wow, just when this whole GSL thing couldn't get any more bizarre, it has. Check out the link below, apparently Jack Chick has finally decided to weigh-in on 4th edition Dungeons & Dragons: http://www.chick.com/reading/tracts/4DnD/0082.asp That was your moment of levity for the...

I'm quite fond of this one, personally: http://www.ssa-x2.com/index.php5?title=SSA-X2_D%26D_Character_Sheet It's beyond comprehensive.

In the collected history of the arts, and literature first and foremost, there have been people possessed of such powerful imaginations, that they can build worlds; Lovecraft, Tolkien, and Stephen King are but a few examples. Not only was Gary Gygax gifted enough to share with us his own World...

Gomez, forgive me if this is a foolish question, but would you like the alternates to generate characters as well, or should we wait so that they can be adapted to fit in situationally as the campaign progresses?

I have to echo Douane's comment. Making it as an alternate is not necessarily a bad thing for a Call of Cthulhu game. Not that I am wishing a horrific end to any of the initial player group (read: appetizers), but in my eagerness to play, I'll be watching closely for any openings!

I'm in if there is space, and promise to be long-term (no current PbP games). Happy to play an antiquarian or archaeologist (Egyptologist) concept.

My new favorite is "Wordgirl" on PBS...educational and absolutely hilarious from a "self-parody of super-hero/super-villain scenarios." Great dialogue from a hero vs. villain perspective too. Plus, her sidekick is a monkey named Captain Huggy Face. I think I enjoy it more than my son, give it...

When the others are ready, Sepoto opens the door as quickly as possible, deftly stepping toward the corridor wall for safety while peering inside.

Sepoto raises one fuzzy orange eyebrow, a sense of foreboding rising in him despite the innocuous nature of the door. "Captain-Catherine, the door seems without danger...should Sepoto open it?"

Sepoto pauses when finding the door, allowing his companions to catch up. He then gives the door the same thorough examination that he gave the first. Search check = 15

Sepoto returns the short distance that separates him from his companions down the corridor to the north. He stifles a sneeze with a sound like a muted chirp before relaying his findings to the others. "Captain-Catherine, this way leads back to the staircase and the ruins above. Shall we...
