    What is the best "bad" ending you've seen/read? [Spoilers abound]

    Double thumbs up on this one....this was one of the few books where you personally just felt lost after reading it. Excellent ending ... and most like life.

    What "big names" in the gaming industry have you met?

    Sean K Reynolds DM'ed for a game I was in at GenCon. I sat with Monte and Sue Cook at the Ennies -- the picture on their site where they are seated with their awards was taken by me :) -D

    Grandpa, what were the outer planes like?

    Coincidence? Saw this at work -- very, very cool! Would love to read how they did it and put it together. When I got home, I flipped on VH1 - "We are the 80s" and they played the video "Big Love" by Fleetwood Mac which has the same concept. Though not as plane-scapely cool!

    Looking for some ideas for Plane of Shadow

    Recent cosmology states that the Plane of Shadow extends through all dimensions/worlds. You could throw in some mutants, Cthulhu-esque creatures, or shadows of other humans (even, to be kitchsy, from "our" Earth.) I like to think of it from out of some Stephen King novel...like a darker...

    Whats the worst you've ever read? Scifi/Fanstasy

    *Sigh* I shouldn't prolong this "opinion war" but.... For me, I think it was Tom Bombadill....or the 3rd Deus Ex rescue that the little hobbits went through -- was when that book was launched into the opposite wall!! (I did finish it and liked it, but didn't love it.) But that's dealing...

    How do you defend alignment in D&D

    Without sticking to alignment, how do you work the following scenario: In a module, the players come across a nursery of young goblins. The goblin children will not defend themselves, believing in survival of the fittest. The module states that if good characters attack the goblin kids, they...

    NPC Gen.. Take a look please

    Don't know if you have this -- seems to be implied in the attack block -- but does your program generate equipment as well? Armor, weapons, magic items, etc? I tried one on the web and it generated plate mail for a bard -- not even sure how that happened?! I think that is sorely missing out...

    1st level Character to Shadow Shift : DM Challenge

    Later quests...hmm...that's a nice fit because I've been a bit low on hooks. I shouldn't be surprised that plane-travel is nigh impossible for low level characters --- it's just that with all the planar enhancements, you'd figure someone would've built a low-level plane/shadow shift without...

    First look at Victor Von Doom

    Yep - it says it in the caption of the photo that he's disfigured "by the cosmic rays." The small pic must be a before- photo.

    1st level Character to Shadow Shift : DM Challenge

    Here the setup: A 1st level mage wants to plane shift/shadow walk to the Plane of Shadow (currently in ) to perform Find Familiar (24 hours duration spell) to get a shadow familiar. (I'll let him figure out how he'll survive 24 hours in shadow....) How would you do it, aside from Dee Em...

    Apotheosis and clergy -- what would you do?

    Well, I've painted myself in a corner, DM-wise. Players are 1st level -- find themselves on a new plane detached from their home (now in Valus. ) Cleric worships Norse as a pantheon but is cut off from his deities. I was thinking that he only has access to 1-2nd level spells because of the...

    Can Harm kill you now?

    Is this right, rules-wise? Or a misprint --- more like (mine in bold ): If the creature successfully saves, harm deals half this amount, but, in either case, it cannot reduce the target’s hit points to less than 1.

    Apotheosis and clergy -- what would you do?

    How did this turn out? I see this last post was almost a year ago. How did this turn out? I have a similar situation -- a cleric is plane-shifted away from his deities and is rounding up worshippers (aka a cult, in the eyes of the current world). When do they "cross-over". -D

    The Immortals Handbook

    No - looking for the FASERIP conversion tables (20 or 40) and why/hows? I'm inferring that it wouldn't just be immortals that would convert regular Marvel heroes too?
