    The In Character Character Game: Part III

    Daniel nods at the example. "Well, that depends. I figure you'd just go back to being normal." He pauses, not quite satisfied with his explanation. "Well, normal as in what you'd normally be doing. Ok, that didn't clarify things at all. See, it's more like you're a bunch of impulses and patterns...

    Sell me on Star Wars D20

    Right, so captian evil comes up to me and makes me afraid. How is getting over it evil? That's what confuses me. I can see situations where it works (the emperor taunting Luke with the destruction of the rebellion in RoTJ, luke can fight with penalties because he's destracted with worry, but...

    WA, Seattle (Lake City) Play or DM

    Sorry about the delay in the reply. I'm in Redmond. Truthfully, I have no idea where Lake City is. And the local place we were able to game at shut down. But fortunately we just obtained a table! Now all we need is chairs and space.... ;)

    Waaah! We broke our GM!

    Ok. Here's what I would do. 1. Buy your DM a beer. 2. Be sympathetic and get him to start bitching. 3. Bring it up from time to time. 4. Run a game so the itch stars back up again. Good luck!

    Sell me on Star Wars D20

    So, could someone explain to me the whole logic between taking a Dark Side point to negate the Fear penalty? I get it mechanically, but not conceptually.

    The In Character Character Game: Part III

    "No, I saw the disney movie a long time ago, but I don't remember anything other than a teeny dollhouse." He listens to everyone else's comments appreciatively. "So, let me get this straight. Everything's dangerous, especially playing cards? And food makes you bigger or smaller? And kings are...

    The In Character Character Game: Part III

    Slow to regain his wits, Daniel clambers to his feet. He goes around offering anyone still recovering from the fall a hand up. "Mario? I take it you're familiar with this story? Anything important we should watch out for?" He scratches his chin and looks around. "For that matter, if anyone know...

    Things that annoy you as DM?

    Woo! Time for ranting. Players who insist that "The essence of the game is Roleplaying, playing a role." Yet can't be bothered to make up a character background. Players who compare the game to a computer/console game. Especially annoying when they do this while the game is in progress. Those...

    How hard is it to "hook" your PCs?

    The best way to hook your players is to know what motivates them. One of mine is all about looking cool. I'm about being important. Another is about the promise of a particularly shiny piece of loot (information or cool locations are also loot). Another is just about following the rest of the...

    WA, Seattle (Lake City) Play or DM

    Hello again! All I can say is that after reading your interests, I feel cheap and mass markety. :D I'm mostly into the stuff that gets shuffled infront of me, games, and oh, run in terror, I'm a programmer. Seriously though, I'd be interested if you're running an open call for players. And...

    The In Character Character Game: Part III

    "Huh? Ok, you lost me with that one." Daniel shakes his head and shrugs. "What was the funny part after the super ego joke?"

    I decided to start drawing again.....

    On the initial and final images, you may want to consider removing a few of the lines, some of them seem out of place. The overall result looks a bit cluttered. I'm reverencing some of the lines in the Ogre's neck, and the wizard's cape. I'd also suggest a litle more time/attention on defining...

    Setting ideas

    Well, the initial idea for my M&M idea takes place on Neo-Atlantis, an artifically created island nation. It's the most technologically advanced nation on the earth. They primarally import food and export technology. With some of the best educational institutions on the earth, they've extended...

    Carpe Diem my butt! (Update on Biohazard's PBEM)

    Hello all! Sorry to drag this up from the grave and all, but I had a question. Is anyone still interested in this? My D20 Modern game was put on indefinate hold, and I've really got a hankering to play. I figure that, if Biohazard isn't up to running one, I'd love to pick up the spirit and run...

    WA, Seattle (Lake City) Looking for Group

    Yo, I'm in the area, but don't have any games going at the moment. Got an expirement with two friends starting soon, to see if I have any mojo left at all. So, how do you feel about off the wall games?

    The In Character Character Game: Part III

    "We can be ready for when it happens though." Daniel nods. "No need to tense up, but no need to drop our guards either." He looks down into the gloom, and smiles. "Either way though, you're right, gotta enjoy the ride."

    Daniel shrugs. "It's safe anyway. The rabbit wouldn't go down a tunnel that would kill him. I'd be more worried about defenses."

    0 for 6

    Yeah, it's a tough thing. I've thought about trying to start up a PBP for a while, but never come up with something that seems feasable, attractive to players, and engaging for me. At least, not one with enough in each part to last. I think it's easy to get discouraged, or just not say...

    D&D deserves a better XP system

    All right, if I can ask something? Did the suggestion of a 0xp game get ignored or lost in the shuffle? Did the menthod I used for xp arbitration just seem to bland to be noticed? Because I would have loved to have had a good conversation with you about it but I didn't get a response.

    Single Weapon Style

    Not to dissuade anyone from coming up with 1hf feats/techniques, but I agree. The one handed sword guy is the guy who can fight while hauling a compainion up from a cliff, swinging from a rope, or holding a torch (all important in dungeons or against trolls). He also probablly didn't spend cash...
