As you noted, this won't be a difficult task. In my experience PCs are incredibly wary of everyone--doubly for strangers who appear out of nowhere and are ascending to a position of power. If I was playing in this campaign I would instinctively suspect her of being a sorceress who was...

Has anyone asked you what those mean? Or do they just gloss by them?

We had something similar in a CoC game. My character and another PC ran into Cthulhu in the dreamworld. My friend's PC missed his sanity check, lost 1d100 sanity, and was reduced to a blubbering pile. My PC made his sanity check and only lost 1d10 sanity. I don't recall the exact value but...

I love the thought of riddles and puzzles in a game because I optimistically imagine that they'll be solved. When this happens it's glorious and rewarding. When that doesn't happen they're a drag. They either become a frustrating time sink or the GM gives you an obvious hint or lets you roll...

I played Milton Bradley's Hero Quest and the Legend of Drizzt boardgame with my 6 year old daughter. She much preferred and grasped Hero Quest over the Drizzt game. (It warmed my heart when she made her very first character, Add the dwarf.) My friend played Mice and Mystics...

I'd much rather see a character throw their comrade a sword and do something awesome, so I would make both a free action.

I thought it would be interesting if a wizard the PCs were facing cast a Summon spell and the individual that the spell randomly summoned turned out to be one of the PCs who would then have to fight their companions. I thought there was a Summon spell that would allow this without requiring a...

In the trinkets section the silver spoon with an M engraved on it (#49) might be an homage to Murlynd's Spoon.

Oh, really? Do you recall which webcomic it came from? I'd like to give it a read.

That's the impression I get from reading his Dungeon Master Experience articles. The articles chronicled his home campaign and used situations that arose in the campaign to illustrate a GMing tip. I obviously wasn't watching his home campaign sessions but from his writing they seem to have a...

@Tonguez had the quote from @IcyCool. It cracked me up every time I saw it, so I saved it. [FONT=verdana]

I wouldn't go so far as to call an otyugh filthy, but it's definitely dirty. But otyughs got personality. Personality goes a long way.

I think he's fantastic. I find his NPCs to be well acted and his pacing for the Acquisition Inc. one-shots is spot on. For me his Dungeon Master Experience articles in the Dungeons and Dragons magazine were pensive and chock full of useful advice on how to build and run campaigns and plots...

Reaper has some that might be to your liking. https://www.reapermini.com/FigureFinder#search/pixie https://www.reapermini.com/FigureFinder#search/fairy Unearthed Arcana had some spryte figures that were neat because they were on scale. http://www.fantization.com/sprytesx2figsapr06.aspx

I prefer that everyone has the same XP and level. The penalty for character death is that you don't get to play a character that you enjoy and put time and effort in developing and playing. Penalizing the player more is unnecessary.

I think it's too harsh. It's a class feature, so I would let it excel at being cool.

If the players are trying to win over the French buccaneers, I would have the buccaneers be the "judges" instead of the competitors. The PCs would make a meal that the buccaneers love so much they'll enlist with them. If you want competitors, you could have a rival ship trying to lure the...

I would let it stack. Especially if the players actually sing Endless Love.

I've always wanted to have a character with a hook for a hand who "dual-wields" their primary weapon (a cutlass seems appropriate) and their hook.
