    Anime scenario/adventure

    Hmmm... as to your second question, cant say I will tell you you're not insane. Well maybe not insane, just highly masochistic... Anyhoo... back to Anime... and considering they are mostly girls... and teenagers... Got me thinking, TFOS (Teenagers from outer Space) might be a good thing to...

    Do you knowingly buy game books you don't intend to actually play

    Well... I guess it depends upon your definition of 'using the book'. I own a great many D&D 3.x books, but never played that edition. I stick to a mix of AD&D1E and AD&D2E. So in a way, I bought (tons and tons I am afraid) of books I will never really use as intended. I DO however mine them for...

    Starting New Planescape Far Realm Themed Adventure

    Well, I seem to recall there being a specific mind-flayer based accessory (forgot the name...) from the 2E era with lots of good stuff. Also, an old Dungeon has an adventure with 'non-euclidian' (am I spelling this right? prolly not...) dungeons, where up becomes down and natural laws such as...

    convincing an npc to kill themselves.

    Well, we can look at it from a pure rules-based perspective (and that is fine in and of itself), but as a DM I would also look at this from a story / fun based perspective. If the DM agrees that this evil PC should be expelled from the party, by the party, and likes the way you as the player of...

    Need some present ideas

    Dont know how you are on weapons in the house (nor the budget you are considering), but a set of replica's of Arwen's sword is a cool knicknack...

    convincing an npc to kill themselves.

    If you want the character to be dispelled by the PC's, I think it is not just the gruesomeness of the act itself that is important, but especially the mindset / attitude of the evil person. To really enjoy and gloat about it. Keep repeating how much fun it was. Maybe even (thinking it to be...

    Starting New Planescape Far Realm Themed Adventure

    Well... the 2nd edition planescape material seems an obvious source. Furthermore, the stuff on Ravenloft. Not really far realm, but still, a corruption of the 'normal', may give some ideas on how to progress... Naturally, Call of Cthulhu material cannot be left out if you are talking 'far realm'...

    So what do you guys think of 2nd edition psionics?

    When you boil it down, the psion in 2nd ed is basically a wizard with spellpoints in stead of spell slots.... This brings a certain flexibility (and power problems) on the one hand, and there were some 'cool new powerz' on the other hand. At the time when the book came out, my players naturally...

    Magic item values and buying/selling Q

    It depends upon the 'class' of item. Real magical items are rare in my campaigns, often unique items. I distinguish several categories: - charms and talismans: low level items providing limited boosts to skills / stats / powers of provide protections etc. Many rings fall in this category. These...

    convincing an npc to kill themselves.

    Well... as a DM I would rule out straight out suicide. Most description I know of domineering and related spells / powers state that self-preservation at the deepest level prevents this. So. time to get creative. Get the NPC up on top of a tower (top of the main mast of the ship) and let him...

    Are Knights and Cavaliers the same thing?

    In my view, cavalier and knight are classwise / in terms of powers and skills pretty much the same thing. If you want to get into more historical perspecive, a cavalier is a heavily armed horseman, but can be in the service of anyone and does not necessarily imply real nobility per se. A...
