Armani Determan is played by actor Clancy Brown (Kurgan from from Highlander). He is a New York street tough who's spent his life bouncing from gang to gang and living on whatever criminal pursuit will pay. He's simple, often angry, and always unsubtle. He is not a murderer, but he is a...

One of my favorite TPK tricks! The only thing better than a good sleep spell cast by an enemy sorcerer is a bad sleep spell poorly cast by a friend. Anyway, very cool story hour. Haven't seen your previous stuff but I'll have to check it out now. I love the pictures to illustrate the action.

ledded, the group is used to mainly combat in a fantasy game. So for the first session (and the first time they'd ever played a Modern game) there was a lot of dialogue derived from what they did and how I thought their characters would talk. Frankly, that's why (in my opinion) the first...

Very fun and fast-paced writing, Express! I hadn't given Eberron a second glance, but now I may just have to check it out. It seems to have a lot of potential for investigating and mystery instead of non-stop dungeon crawls. Keep up the good work and keep the timely updates coming!

Heap, I for one would be very interested in seeing this Diabolism spell system. I like my magic more painful. The magic system in my modern game is still in the works, but I know for certain it is not "I memorize Magic Missile 5 times." Have you checked out the Medallions magic system that...

“Tears in Hell” – Bearly Involved 11:45 PM Monday, July 12th Yorktown, Virginia Armani and Quin crouched over Devin’s body while Meadow applied pressure and bandages to his head. “He might make it,” she said. “He might not.” Quin glanced at Armani’s wounds. “Not looking too good there...

It sounds like a fun group! While we're in this Q&A session, do you record all the games while you're playing with the tape recorder or does Old Drew just have a photographic memory for all those fantastic quotes? I've been thinking of hiring one of those courtroom stenographers to sit with...

Jonrog! Glad you're alive. We were all worried. ;) This is the thread that got me to ENWorld oh so long ago and THEN motivated me to start my own Modern campaign. Great writing! And, of course.... POST MORE!!! :D

Introduction: Rebecca Michaels Introduction: Rebecca Michaels 11:00 PM July 12th, 2004 You apply the final finishing touches to your face – perfect. Your hair is brown today, and it goes well with today’s face. Martin, er, Professor Gallivan, will probably pretend not to notice again...

Introduction: Quinton Stark III Introduction: Quinton Stark III 11:25 PM July 12th, 2004 Your BMW M3 takes the corners like a champ, even in this pouring rain. Good investment, if you do say so yourself, paid for with profits from a batch of finals. It looks hot. You tell yourself that’s...

Introduction: Meadow McLean Introduction: Meadow McLean 11:25 PM July 12th, 2004 You’re a little distracted right now. Of course, that’s why you’re here in the first place, because you’ve been a “little distracted” this entire term and your grade in this class pretty much requires some...

Introduction: Devin Cole Introduction: Devin Cole 11:15 PM July 12th, 2004 “It’s my liiiiiiiiife, it’s now or never. I ain’t gonna…” You listen to FM 99 for hard rock. What the hell is this Bon Jovi crap? You flick off the radio in frustration and crank the windshield wipers up to...

Introduction: Armani Determan Introduction: Armani Determan 11:25 PM July 12th, 2004 You’re a bad-mutha-(shut yo' mouth). You know this, and most of the people you meet know this. But damned if the cab ride from the Greyhound station to the McDonalds isn’t the most terrifying experience...
