Context, context , context. I've ploughed through this skimming I'll admit the posts and I think most of the points that occurred to me have been touched on. The definition of paladin is always a somewhat thorny and subjective business. We don't know what god the paladin served and we don't...

Downer seems one of those strips that might take forever to get going and I don't think I've got that long to wait :confused: Having said that the Dungeon/Dragon strip I really don't go for is Bolt and Quiver. Sorry but I don't find it amusing at all. :\

I have firearms in my new campaign but black powder is a magical rather than plain alchemical substance and is sparked by the use of runelocks. They're not all that common and so far none of the party have picked one up but I don't think they'll cause any problems...

I think Piratecat's got the right idea (as you might expect :\ ). She could turn the whole village against the players, especially if she's been masquerading as the beautiful and apparently benevolent lady of the manor. What if she was running some kind of playgroup for the village children...

I have a subscription to Dungeon and I look forward to reading it. Having said that I don't buy it for Polyhedron though occassionally, Spelljammer and Incursion particularly, I've found it interesting reading. I read the adventures and add them to my huge supply of such. Mostly I find them...

I'm currently running an FR campaign and a home-brew AU campaign so I doubt I'll be starting an Eberron campaign any time soon, attractive as it seems. Of course, like many others I reserve the right to plunder Eberron for as much as possible. :cool:

For me roleplaying is escaping from the humdrum mundanity of my real life and immersing myself in another life and another world. If I have to roll a few dice to pierce the curtain between this world and that so be it. As a DM I try and set up the situation where others can have the experience...

Good idea, I've stolen it. Your secret is safe with me... :cool:

I've never bothered with making my PCs take out downtime for training, although I understand the arguments for it. I try to run campaigns where things keep happening regardless of the characters and if they took that amount of time out they just might miss something! It might not be realistic...

I don't think that Gemnez is quite the renegade he's made out to be. It strikes me that his loyalty is still with Baator and this is all some long-running plot of the devils.

That's exactly how I was going to handle it.

I agree with most of the above. Allow her to keep it simple even if this does not optimise her character and give her plenty of role-play/story options. As she starts to enjoy/enthuse over the character encourage a bit by bit introduce more options. You might even make an initially limited...

I'm attempting this sort of fusion but purely for NPCs in my AU game - as yet. I have a very psionic race that I was going to make favour mind witches and am now goin to make psionic. I also have had one NPC develop as a wilder. The players don't know this yet of course if they find out and...

I agree with all the above. This is a quality web-comic, I only wish I could afford all the t-shirts...

I must admit to having the urge to give someone a sword called Smile with the Improved Disarm feat, just so I can give someone a disarming smile... :confused:

Ah.., well I'm here, let's get on with the mayhem! :heh:

I've run Vaultof Larin Karr for one group and while they never finished it, it kept us going for weeks with lots of mini-dungeons and side treks. I'm about to run it again for another group though I've already started to add a few things to give my guys more backstory. As I'm looking for more...

I am of the distinct opinion that Sep's infinity is bigger than all of ours... :\

I'll admit to being a Malhavoc junkie so I bought it right away. I found BoHM2 to be typical of their products, well written and thought provoking and although there are are things in it that I would not use, there are plenty of things in there that I would and indeed may introduce. If you...

I've been rating players at 50*Level/75*Level/100*Level per 'encounter' which could be a pure roleplaying event as I want them not to have to rely on purely combat encounters. So they're either below average, average or above average for that 'encounter'. It's very arbitrary but so far it...
