    [OT] School Started Today

    I always thought it was strange that the two most prevalent occupations (as far as I have seen, anyway) among gamers are technical fields or education. Being a special education teacher myself, I find that teaching and my writing career mesh very well together. I have time in the evenings to...

    Help with Designing a Summoner

    The characters in my campaigns who like to summon stuff usually pick up a Bag of Tricks as well. Handy things, those bags. "Hello there! Is that a rhino in your pocket or are AAAAAAAAH!" :)

    [NWN] Question/Problem

    I've rebooted numerous times, yes. Including turning it off for 8 hours while I was sleeping last night, so it shouldn't be related to that. Or if it is, I'm in a lot worse trouble than I thought. :) Shawn Carman

    [NWN] Question/Problem

    In response to a previous question (which I did not notice), no I have not attempted to edit the module in any way. I did try to load the save point from another game, but unfortunately that didn't work either. This leaves me with the more-than-likely conclusion that either my character file...

    [NWN] Question/Problem

    The quicksave and the Autosave don't load (again, these are at the beginning of the Black Lake District portion of the game). I have a friend with a game saved on my machine that is still in the Peninsula District and it loads without trouble. I have no idea why one would load and one would...

    [NWN] Question/Problem

    Howdy all. I hope this isn't an inappropriate place to ask a question like this, but seeing as how these forums have always been a great place to get some reasonable advice (as opposed to the seething cauldron of rage that is the Bioware tech forum), I thought I'd give it a whirl. I've got a...

    AEG: Have you ever thought about EDITING your products?

    I work for AEG in a couple of capacities. I'm on a regular stipend to develop material for the L5R CCG, and I'm a freelancer on the Legend of the Five Rings/Rokugan line as well as some other RPG books in the Spycraft and "Topic" lines. I only mention this so that you can appreciate my point of...

    XP costs in Way of the Samurai

    Honestly? A little of both. Rich Wulf, head writer for L5R and d20 genius extraordinaire, established some rough and tumble guidelines for what the costs should be relative to the power level of the kata. Personally (and I'm sure this will sound odd), I have a much easier time determining the...

    Rokugan qn re dead bodies

    Thanks for the kind words, and I'm glad you enjoyed the book. If you're interested in more cultural aberrations like the Crab/dead flesh thing, you might want to check out the recently released Way of the Ninja. There's all -sorts- of things in there you're not supposed to do. Enjoy! Shawn...

    Rokugan qn re dead bodies

    Re: Bodies in Rokugan To some extent, one of the previous posters is corrent in that the Crab don't care all that much about cultural taboos. The killing and beheading of the goblins is a necessity, and is usually carried out by either students who are trying to reach their gempukku or by...

    [SWRPG] Lords of the Expanse... D20 conversion?

    Re: Lords of the Expanse That sounds really interesting. Sadly, I don't have the free time necessary to give you a hand, but I'd love to see what material you produce. The DarkStryder Campaign was a WEG boxed set that was kicked off with some original fiction by Timothy Zahn. The box was...

    [SWRPG] Lords of the Expanse... D20 conversion?

    Re: Lords of the Expanse I always thought that was an interesting setting. If I ever get the time, I'm planning on converting the DarkStryder Campaign to d20, myself. I don't see having time for that before the fall, though.
