1) Define the physical world. Size, geography, most important/special areas. 2) Genesis. What is the history of that world? How did it all being? What role do the gods play in it? 3) Gods. Which are the main gods watching for the mortals in that world? 4) Magic. How does magic work? Does it...

Why would I give out treasure? are you crazy? It's MY treasure! ALL MINE! *clings to it*

Get angry with him.

Hi, Ben. I usually advise beginners to lurk a game or two, first. You seem to be itching to play, though. May I advise, then, that you shouldn't let that anxiety work against you. Online roleplaying is (usually) about enjoying reading and writing. Although I have seen games where the DM doesnt...

It had nothing to do with gold! Gargamel wanted to catch the smurfs because he was a *ver very very very* lonely man... :uhoh:

Yup. I love my Requiem box. Thanks for pointing out those products! I will certainly check them out! =)

5) Here is an idea. The PCs are zombies as well, but they dont know it yet. There were rules for creating undead characters in AD&D 2nded, but I dont knwo any sources for 3.5e. There was a Zombie Lord in 2e, which was a more powerful and intelligent kind of zombie. I ahve also watched a horror...

Regarding time - When you announce your game you better set a posting rate for it. One of my games has a 4+/week rate. That means my players have to post at least once every 48 hours. Now, we all know different players have different lives and different availability to post. That means some will...

Not really what you are asking, but whenever I try to create a new culture, I remember what I learned in my anthropology classes. Basically speaking, a culture is shaped by the way people 'work' the nature around them. By nature, I dont mean only plants and animals, but the whole environment...

I am thinking of an adventure to take place in a mountain/mountain chain, and I want to explore the outside a lot more than the underground. That means I need to create a map for the mountain, difining the ecology, what kind of intelligent/wild life inhabbit its many territories, etc etc. I want...

I dont believe in choosing a leader, and yet, my players always had one. They never chose the leader. The leader naturally appears in the party. A lot of times they dont even notice they have a leader among them.

I need to create a dungeon for one of my adventures and it has to be a dungeon made by giants. Basically, the plot is that the PCs will have to search this dungeon for an item used by the giants to fight the dragons, in a war they had thousanhds of years ago. This dungeon would be created to...

Doh, it lasts for 1 hour/levle in 3e. I really should stop using my PHB from 3e. Still, maybe it is enough. 1 minute per level means it lasts 11 minutes. Since it is a 4th level spell, the wizard can cast it at least 4 times, thus having 44 minutes to do so. He could swim down there in the...

How about polymorphing into a dolphin? "The polymorphed creature acquires the physical and natural abilities of the creature it has been polymorphed into while retaining its own mind." I know dolphins dont have hands, so you wouldnt be able to carry the drowned PC back up. Just saying that...

Does anyone know what's the equivalent score in 3.5e for a STR of 18/91 from AD&D 2nd ed?

Troubles. :p

I have this NPC in 2nd ed who has a Berserk Frenzy ability. How does that translate to D&D3.5e? Like the barbarian rage?

I have once created a murder mistery adventure in Calimport for an all wizards party of level 6. They had to find out who murdered the head of the wizards guild. I dont care about party balance. Never cared. Everytime I start a game, table top or online, I tell people to create anything they...

Arched, bronze, double doors open slowly and automatically as you approach them, producing a creaking sound from its rusty hinges and a thick cloud of dust. On the other side is a diamond shaped room. Dusty, large, diamond shaped, white marble stones cover the floor. All the walls are as white...

I can see now from what Conaill said that although I find it easy for the DM to keep track of the hit points, it could be harder for the players. One thing I do that seems to help is always describing how much energy there seems to be left in each friend or foe. It really works, and I very often...
