    Getting the players more involved

    The players I'm involved with are total mercs...if the money is good, they're in. Even when some hamlet has no real cash, and begs for help, the potential that the bad guy has cash is a big incentive.

    fleshing out my game

    The gate could swing both ways. The north is bracing for another Orc horde. Lets say the horde slams instead upon the recovering civilzations of the scarred lands. You could have the PCs crossing into both worlds to find the items to close the gates, and return most of the new invaders to...

    Help me on an idea for 1st level characters

    This is a good oportunity to introduce a recurring villain. they could be political prisoners for speaking out against the injustices of an evil barron...or debters who could not pay his taxes. For those PCs who love the tragic, "You killed my family!" style origin this would be a good tie...

    I need help with plot ideas!!!

    The coins could also give a power, and the person who knopws enough NOT to sleep with a coin might be reluctant to give it up. For example, the gold coin if left in a vial of wine for a month could create a potion of youth. A noble might be hesitant to give it up just to rescue some merchants...

    Help a new GM with plot for a Thief, the Dark Project game

    I like letting the players bump into some elaborate villain's plot. For example. The PC's spote a skeleton in an alley, bent over a dead human. The skeleton looks up (he has eyeballs), sees the PC and flees disapearing into a maze. The human is dead, eyes gone. A trail of blood leads to a...

    Need Roleplaying Tips

    When this campaign started, the DM said we all need to write up a background for our characters. I'm generally quiet RP wise, and I made a very outgoing character. What I need are RP tips, things you would do with this guy-I really want to get into this character, but he is so different from...
