    D&D General My Problem(s) With Halflings, and How To Create Engaging/Interesting Fantasy Races

    In my old AD&D World of Greyhawk campaign, I always assumed that all of the races had different cultures in different areas of the world. I expanded the setting west and south of the Sea of Dust, and had a halfling civilization of warlike desert raiders living in an area of desert badlands. This...

    What counts as a detailed enough, permissible action declaration?

    Arguably, it may be easier to end a life than to change a core belief. (A person’s foodways are often quite deeply rooted.) Ending a life merely requires poking enough holes in the meat sack. Changing a core belief may take quite a bit longer. Nevertheless, many RPGs don’t have life or death...

    D&D General Turgenev's Friday Freebie Maps

    Are you allowed to reveal which maps you did for Candlekeep Mysteries? My kids and I have been trying to guess, but, to our untrained eyes, the styles are just different enough from what you post here that we can't be sure.

    D&D General Turgenev's Friday Freebie Maps

    This is one of my favorites. It's a bit smaller (in terms of total number of rooms) than some, which I like. I could easily see inserting this into a game. If I were running it at lower levels, I might replace the magma with water. (Making area 11 perhaps muddy or collapsing.)

    Delvers to Grow - fast character building for Dungeon Fantasy RPG and GURPS DF

    With six hours to go, the Delvers to Grow campaign is over $30K (more than $8K over the goal). I'm still hoping another 163 backers come out of the woodwork to get us to the 600 backer stretch goal. I'll talk up one more bit that I like. This sidebar in the section on disadvantages: One of...

    Delvers to Grow - fast character building for Dungeon Fantasy RPG and GURPS DF

    One of the things I have appreciated as I've built characters with draft versions of Delvers to Grow is that even with the simplification, you don't lose the ability to differentiate similar characters with interesting disadvantage packages. In Exxar's meatgrinder, for example, roleplaying...

    Delvers to Grow - fast character building for Dungeon Fantasy RPG and GURPS DF

    Why set our sights so low? With 1000 backers we get four more books! I'm especially excited for Ready to Raid: Spellcasters at 750 backers. Casters make great opponents (and allies!), but building a spell list is a fair amount of work. It will be great to have a resource to help with that. I...
