    When outrageous plans work!

    Hey and welcome to the boards Hummingbird! Yep it’s always great when the DM is open to letting players try out more “interesting” tactics from time to time. I remember once a party I played in as a paladin became involved in a naval battle and we were doing pretty well until that Beholder...

    How do you portray evil Humanoids?

    quirks We usually give humanoid races some quirk to make sure they stand out as interesting to the PCs. For example, a party of adventurers once overheard two orcs arguing over who’s wife had a bigger penis, almost all halflings are cannibals, and dwarfs don’t count their age; instead they...

    I just made a mistake – giving away powerful items

    I just made a mistake – giving away powerful items It was part of a campaign I recently decided not to continue, where all the PC’s would eventually find some very powerful equipment in an old elven armory which would motivate further adventures – you know, others want it, contingencies and...

    Kill All the Hostages! (We'll bring them back...)

    I was in a similar situation once with a group of mine. It was in some module that I bought for $2. A mage falls in love with his queen and confesses, she very gently turns him down and announces that she is pregnant with the kings child, so the mage runs off, takes control of a tribe of orcs...

    Hercules in Deities and Demigods

    Hey I thought that the show was very entertaining – though admittedly in almost no way related to actual myths – and I was sorry to see it end so quickly. I am saying this as a person who likes to consider himself reasonably well read and defiantly familiar with Greek legends. In fact, I...

    (Totally-OT) I really need some advice... bad!

    Now I don’t want to start my post with the phrase “You scumbag” so I won’t. I would regret it. It would not be appropriate; I don’t really know you as a person anyway. But I just happen to have been on the same side as your “good friend” a while ago, and lucky for me, the guy who tried to...

    The Oddest Thing You've Done As A DM When Running A Game

    time travel I don’t want to get into too many details – though the DM at the time certainly did – but I played in a long running campaign where we switched DMs frequently, and when it was this guy’s turn he decided that time travel would be the coolest thing in the world, so we went back in...

    [ot, spoilers] Enterprise 27-2-02

    My gosh man, am I the only one who thinks vulcans in general are the worst idea for a race of alien critters on TV in the history of TV? How am I, as a viewer, supposed to become interested in a people who are actually incapable of showing emotion? "Oh well as long as it won't bother you I was...
