    The In Character Character Game: Part III

    "Ugh, I'm no good with guns... or any other weapons for that matter. I guess I could beat people up with my old guitar, but it'd only take a few hits before it'd break. Got something less gun-shaped? I've got my dice, but they're no great help... except that the d4's make mean caltrops."

    The In Character Character Game: Part III

    "Oh, Vivi's the Black Mage from Final Fantasy 9. And I don't think getting earplugs will be a problem. I was just thinking... some of the stuff I've seen here actually resembles D&D to some extent... so maybe it would be possible to learn some bardic music or something... countersong would be a...

    The In Character Character Game: Part III

    "Well... let me tell you this. Gandalf is scared to death of Barney. Does that answer any of your questions? And the last time we encountered a hologram illusion of Barney, he used the illusion to put some of us into a braindead state, just by singing an idiotic song! The good thing is that...

    The In Character Character Game: Part III

    "I'm still a bit confused myself. I only joined recently. Apparently Barney's been messing with reality, thus bringing all these creatures from geek popular culture into this world, and now one of the guys has been turned into a girl, one of us is wearing Sub Zero's suit, Pikachu's hanging out...

    The In Character Character Game: Part III

    "Oh, you're a gamer. That's so not surprising. Most of us are. The creepy thing is, that In Real Life most of us are actually EN World members... I'm psychognome from EN World, in case you're wondering." Patrik says.

    The In Character Character Game: Part III

    Patrik listens to the conversation that's going on around him, cradling a little dog with bird wings in his arms. "Oh, you guys think this is confusing? Don't worry, it's bound to get a lot more so..." he says, looking around the room. Now, what ever possessed me to buy this thing? I mean...

    Goblins as PCs

    Ah, a nice adaptation of the gnomes' and dwarves' +4 dodge bonus to Armor Class against giants. Consider it yoinked! :D *yoink*

    Is there more to D&D then Dungeon Crawling?

    So, is a grassy gnoll a Medium Plant (augmented humanoid)? :D

    Gnomes

    Well, hey, gnomes like gems, don't they? And as Joan Rivers said, "I'm Jewish. I don't work out. If God had wanted us to bend over, He would have put diamonds on the floor." :D So, gnomes would become bankers, and a people that nobody really trusts, and who are opressed into living in their own...

    In Character Character Game RETURNS!

    Just goes to illustrate how much I suck at German. :rolleyes: Honestly, I've only studied one course of German, ever, in my life, and I got what would qualify as a C- from the said course. :D Anyway, thanks for the tip.

    In Character Character Game RETURNS!

    Heyyy, I was wondering where this game had disappeared! I'd be thrilled to come along again! :D I was just looking at my statistics and description... and man, I have totally got the shaft! :p I guess I joined in quite late, so I haven't got quite as many goodies as all the rest of the...

    Do you think they'd take him serious?

    I just got a weird idea for an evil gnome... Once upon a time there was a young gnome bard with a knack for light-hearted comedy and pranks. He traveled the world with a group of adventurers on a somber quest, always doing his best to lighten up the tense mood. His life as an adventurer was...

    poll: What has most influenced your conception of fantasy?

    For me it's the first choice. I was already interested in myths and legends at a young age, and it was my fascination with these subjects that lead me to ol' Tolkien's works, and later into D&D. Tolkien's works just have a sort of a "realistic mythology" of their own that drew me into them...

    Non-coin currency

    Well, for what I know, the ancient Finns used animal skins and hides as currency... I still remember a picture from my grade-school history book. It depicted a man and a boy in a snowy taiga, with only one tree around. The man was aiming his bow, coupled with a blunt arrow, at a squirrel...

    Should PCs or the GM run a player's followers, cohorts and minions?

    I'd say that the GM should be in control of the followers. Even though they are the PC's minions, they are still NPCs. The PC should have some authority in determining what his minions should do, but this should be directly roleplayed, as such: "Arnold looks at his minions and shouts 'Get...

    Experiencing some difficulties...

    I tried to subscribe to a thread just now, and after I had been asked about how I would like to subscribe to the said thread, I pressed the "Submit" button and was forwarded to a "You are not logged in" window. I inserted my Name and Password, but was given the "You are not logged in" window...

    Campaign quotes

    This is from NiTessine's home campaign... it's the only quote that I can actually recall (mostly because it was my character that was saying it ;)) but NiT is free to post his own if he remembers any good ones. Idiotic Dwarf Battlerager to the Town Guard: "'Ere, now, you're not a cult of evil...

    D&D 3.5 Orcs: back to Tolkien?

    The way I see it, the goblin-men are the humans that originally dwelled in what is now Rohan, but were forced to flee to the mountains by the horselords. They didn't directly mingle with orcs, but did sometimes work closely with them. In the Fellowship of the Ring Saruman is actually addressing...

    Eberron isn't Steampunk

    According to Merriam Webster's Online Dictionary: Pulp is a mixture of cellulose material, such as wood, paper, and rags, ground up and moistened to make paper. Punk is dry decayed wood, used as tinder. Go figure. :rolleyes:
