Some heroic PCs and NPCs from my campaign. A bookish apprentice to a master herbalist journeying with his friends to right a horrible wrong discovers a forgotten genocidal history, a weapon of legend, and a secret fraternal order when he is kidnapped by its members who want to initiate him. A...

Man... how lame is the stinking tarrasque? I knew it would win this round, but I had hoped it wouldn't. Maybe good taste will win out in the end. I just can't shake the feeling that the tarrasque is a monster that appeals to the lowest common denominator. Sorry.

Well, I played my first session and started reading D&D books in the mid 80s, didn't get to truly play until around 1999 and finally DMed in 2003. Homebrew all the way. It's sad that, despite being involved with D&D for so long, I have so little experience actually taking part in the game.

A craven but dangerous one-hundred-fifty year old, human thief who prolongs his misbegotten life by any means necessary has evaded those who seek to destroy him and his wickedness by escaping to the prime material plane where he plans to continue traveling in disguise whilst lengthening his...

Unfortunately, for many years after I first discovered it, my involvement with D&D was limited to simply reading the rulebooks. My friends and I were pretty young then and none of us knew how to DM a game (nor did we want to, we wanted to be players). My friend's older brother introduced us to...

He's the best there is at what he does? ;)

I sympathize. My group hasn't played in about a year due to members moving away, leaving for college (the younger members) and people who simply haven't got any time. All of the hard work I've put into my campaign world is just sitting on my hard drive.

In my campaign one of the characters is being followed so... The PC is the son of a king. The son has never felt like a part of the family. He has always favored learning to be a musician and historian as opposed to his brothers, who study swordsmanship and similar activities. His father does...

It's pronounced drow... wait, no; it's pronounced Ebb-err-on. Why anyone's first instinct would be to pronounce it otherwise is beyond me.

Not a lot of real-world logic went into my second moon. It's actually obscured from view by the visible first moon (and possibly something a bit more... magical). I'm open to suggestions though, since not much hangs in the balance, story-wise, if I were to change why it's hidden.

That's simple; the Barbecue. :p

If I had a nickel for every time I said that... And $150 for each time I needed bail because I said it. Incidentally, my campaign world has two moons, one visible and one that is hidden from view except for a day or two every so many years.

Paper of Beatsroque A sheet of expensive looking paper measuring approximately 12 inches by 20 inches. Any rock that is completely covered by the paper is disintegrated instantly; otherwise the paper is entirely normal and is cut, quite easily, by scissors. This paper is reusable and made of...

I just can't picture an adventure featuring the Big T as being interesting... I don't much care for high-level games either... They should have included a Myconid and a Yuan-Ti so that we could have chanted the obligatory, "Badger, Badger, Badger, Badger, Mushroom, Mushroom. Snake!!!"

LOL, I remember seeing those pictures at their last open house par.... I mean, nevermind. It's his own fault for not wearing his tinfoil hat.

Well, my campaign has been on hiatus for close to a year due to the group getting split up across three or four states. However, when we last left off... My Homebrew: The party survived an attempted poisoning at the inn where they spent the night and were about to leave town on the trail of a...

Qui-Gon & Obi-Wan vs Darth Maul. It was the first of the lightsaber battles we got to see with able-bodied people playing trained Jedi and it kicked much ass. Young Vader vs young Obi-Wan probably comes in as a close second though.

It was pretty darn good. Definitely better than the first two. The Anakin/Padme romantic dialogue was the only thing that was slightly cringe-worthy and thankfully that was kept to a necessary minimum. I'll see it among an actual audience on Friday. It will be interesting to see the crowd's...

I've already been treated, so I'm okay. But I'm still contagious....

I got a private screening last night and thought it was good. I'll be seeing it again on Friday. Edit: That's pretty much what I did. I feel pretty lucky too; I never usually get in on stuff like that. Pizza and Star Wars in a private screening; that's pretty hard to beat. Of course, the...
