Grodog, I think everyone here thanks you for your generous offer. So, can anyone else give Michael a hand?

To me, I think that what matters most in gaming is whether the people at each gaming table are having fun. I believe that there are many different styles of games, many different types of gamers, and that fun is what matters most. If a game or a game product does not fit your personal tastes...

Try General for some ideas, and maybe Rules or House Rules for some very specific things. Good to see you on the boards again!

Ghostwind, at least you have an idea of what to do now. So, take good care of yourselfand I hope that you have a blast at Origins!

My pet peeve: Super NPC. No matter how hard your character has worked to achieve his or her goals, the DM will have the campaign seem to be a showpiece for a favored NPC. It becomes particularly annoying if you have a character who is supposed to be at the top of his or her profession, and the...

Depending on the campaign and the paladin's deity, I could see this as a viable character. Mind you, I think that there are multiple ways to interpret a paladin character. A large part of this depends on the character's faith and culture. For example, there are some people who believe that a...

Turanil, I have been busy of late, so I have not been posting much. However, we do seem to have people come and go in waves. Also, interests change with time. So, post when you wish. Perhaps instead of looking for threads that are "rules heavy" look for ones that deal with some constants in...

A Happy Birthday to Henry and a Happy Belated Birthday to Morrus!!! Thanks to you and all the people who keep EN World up and running. While I am not here as often as I would like to be these days, I am glad to see the boards are active and relatively peaceful. Keep up the good work.

Welcome to EN World, scadgrad!

It might be worthwhile to add The Common Commoner to the list of threads on the first page.

Well, as for the cleric bit, I would argue that having a series of organizations and stories about the deities in a setting can help add to roleplaying flavor. Perhaps one important thing that a DM can add is a few tales of rolemodels for players to base their characters on for a setting...

Well, there are some clerics in legend and fantasy literature. Mind you, there are alternate ways of modeling a cleric than is done in the core rules. (Monte Cook does have a feat that allows one to be a member of a religious order.) I personally enjoy playing clerics, but I think that for me...

I think a well done Greyhawk hardcover, in the style of the Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting or Eberron books, would be welcome. However, I think that there is no way to please all the different aspects of Greyhawk fandom with their different opinions on what should be canon. I think that as...

I would go with Alfheim for the halflings, and Nidavellir for the gnomes and dwarves. The halflings could represent a certain type of the alfar, and the gnomes a type of dwarf. As for halflings and gnomes, they can model various types of fey like creatures from different cultures. The word...

Perhaps we can make this more respectable by asking people to donate some of their older books or books that they can donate to a good cause. This way, we can give people an excuse to clear their bookshelves, do some good, and possibly win a few prizes.

Lolth is a being that has gained power in varous editions, even though she was technically a lesser goddess in the 1st edition deities and demigods. Some of the other demon princes and lords, such as Orcus and Demogorgon, may qualify as deities of some sort. Also, while Lolth may have a fair...

Bounce the Rubble: The Game of Nuclear Third Strike: This game failed as the combatants had only a few missiles left. And there were no winners, only losers. In retrospect, it does make the grimmest WoD game seem light-hearted. Bureaucracy: The game of red tape and delays. No one was...

I think the moderators do a good job in keeping a friendly tone on the boards, even though there are some challenges every now and then. (Some people will try to skirt the rules, but this is perhaps to be expected.)

I think this would be fitting as well. Mr. Draco, good to see you on the boards again.

May the memories of Angelsboi, Chairman Kaga, the Lone Corndog, Dave Sutherland III, Keith Parkinson, Tim Hildebrandt and others who touched our lives and our hearts burn bright in our memories. May they rest in peace and may those dearest to them be comforted. It is hard to believe that it...
