    Spoon feed or let them fend for themselves?

    Yeah. Then I would have waited around, gotten lunch, and seen if they were going to move or not. Ah. Sounds a lot like your group is like mine then. Some people aren't big on self determination. My group filled out a survey, and their answers insisted that everything was fine, though it...

    The In Character Character Game: Part III

    Daniel huddles in his jacket as much as he can. Finally, walking in silence and misery gets to be too much for him. "Right, so I figure that Speed's probablly in some trouble. If it ends up in a fight, we should do our best to cover each other. We should definately try to double team our...

    The In Character Character Game: Part III

    "Thanks." Daniel replies with a smile. "I only know a little about Speed Racer. Old cartoon series from Japan. Really bad dubbing. The main character raced cars a lot, and always seemed to get into trouble. And his car had weird gadgets. Oh, and he had a monkey." "That's a pretty good idea...

    Heroes, Heroism, and RPGs

    Agreed. Lack of consiquence destroys the relevance of the choice Yeah. And come to think of it, action points help with that immensely. Having a few chips you can throw in when something absolutely needs to work is a wonderful thing.

    Spoon feed or let them fend for themselves?

    While I can understand the sentiment, from your presentation, I'm far from impressed. If they're not getting it, talk to them, get new players, or try something new. Do your characters care about magic items? If they don't, then a sword is no big deal. They also might not want to go after one if...

    Heroes, Heroism, and RPGs

    Heroism has always been a hard quest to go for. Not all people are going to be heroic, and in any situation where there's a good chance of randomness, simply too much of a mind towards survival, tactics or intelligence can kill the feeling of heroism. Unfortunately, I can't really tell you if...

    In Character Character Game RETURNS!

    Well, you rescued me, so you can be my hero. But you're going to have to start wearing spandex. :D

    "And I still say Goods is an easier name to remember then Mike. But it's nice to meet you anyway Mike." Daniel extends a hand. "I'm Daniel, and no, before you ask, I'm not always an ass." He smiles, obviously, it was supposed to be a joke, albiet a bad one. "Anyway, the short logical version is...

    The In Character Character Game: Part III

    Daniel looks back over his shoulder. "Yeah. That was the plan." He shrugs and, walks back over to the bubble. He taps the bubble twice, and in the same honey coated voice he uses to talk to puppies, he says "Hello there. Hi! Hi!" He waves at the bubble, trying to catch the resident's...

    Daniel nods slowly. "If that's it, we'll begin looking for your pilot now." He heads for the door, listening for any other info.

    The In Character Character Game: Part III

    Daniel shrugs and looks to the side. He does his best to look like he doesn't care, but his expression relaxes just a little.

    Why are things immune to crits?

    To the original poster, I have one guideline on assigning if something is immune to critical hits within the standard D&D system. Can you point to a spot, at least the size of a grapefruit, that hitting with an attack causes a severe reaction (and possibly death)? Humans are filled with these...

    In Character Character Game RETURNS!

    LOL. Boy, did I just stonewall everything or what. Allow me to paint myself with a bullseye. :D Someone help a fella get his foot out of his mouth? I hopefully not everyone here enjoys watching me squirm. Heh heh heh. Whoops.

    The In Character Character Game: Part III

    Daniel glances back over his shoulder, having neatly bargined himself into a corner. "So, guys," he says, trying to cover by sounding a little annoyed. "I know I heard more clamorings for stuff initially. What do you all want?"

    The In Character Character Game: Part III

    Daniel looks at the newly freed young man, obviously un-impressed. "So you're burdening us down, and telling us it's a deal?" He looks at the merchant. "I think we're going to need a little more than that. After we get your pilot back, we're going to need a gun cleaning kit, some ammo, and maybe...

    The In Character Character Game: Part III

    "Hey!" Daniel walks up to Jemal. "That's a raw deal. Hell, I bet the guy's barely trained for anything. Heck, listen to him talk, obviously damaged goods. Besides, even if he was useful, we're going to have to worry about food. You know how much one person eats a week? We'd be doing a service to...

    The In Character Character Game: Part III

    After looking around for something aproximating a tai-chi sword, a longsword, or a kendo sword, Daniel finally looks up. He stares at the creature for a long moment before asking anything. "Just so we're on the same page," he says, pulling out his credit card. "This isn't a credit chip, right?"...

    The In Character Character Game: Part III

    Daniel turns to face Diana and Patrik . "Don't worry about it. You get better fast." "Thank you very much for the help," he says to Solid Snake with a half bow. "I'm going to be coming back for that cake as soon as I can." With that, he starts to head after Hanh, then looks back over his...

    The In Character Character Game: Part III

    Daniel clears his throat and speaks up from the back. "Hitting up a gun shop sounds like a good idea. I'd like to pick up a sword, or a bat or some armor or something while we're out. A gun shop sounds like a good place to hit first though. Maybe a sporting goods store or archery place next...

    Why don't flesh eating zombies eat each other?

    Well, some of the people I went to school with certianly qualified as social zombies. :)
