    What to DM to a newbie group of girls?

    I like "The Devil Box" from Dungeon #109 for 2nd level characters. It's got Kobolds, Devils, Freakshows, and has a lot more room for roleplaying than combat. It's funny and would probably be enjoyed by your group. GRUNK

    Looking for opinions

    i am currently running the Shackled City AP with 3 players. We started with 2 and so I had each player play 2 characters. The natural progression was that one of the PCs became more of the speaker and the other the strong silent type (works out well for the characters backstories). For example...

    Dragon Tactics - How smart and original can you be?

    In a game I ran, I had an adult Blue Dragon(Huge) who had a complex about his type. He had an alter self collar that was given to him by a friendly evil wizard. The dragon used this to appear as a red dragon. Because it stayed the same size, it appeared (especially to my rules savvy players) as...

    Evil Parties - and Evil PC's - A Discussion

The PCs were generally for sale to the highest bidder, which meant at time they would do good for the right price. Their was the party NE assassin who...

    Fnippin In my shackled city campaign (PCs just started exploring Jzaidarune in Life's Bazaar) the gnomish wizard is Zook "The Fnipper" Turren. The Fnipper came from the PHB suggested gnome nicknames. We decided that Fnipping was the gnomish word for illusions and general magic use, thus The...

    Charging Rules???HELP???

    Hey all OK. So I'm running my PCs through the adventure path and I came across a rule I wasn't sure of. The PCs opened a door(silently) looked into a big room, saw the BBEG there, and tried to think of a tactic. So they end up all charging 30' down the hallway, having an NPC open the door so...

    Assassin missions?

    My campaign features an evil Assassin PC. Oh what fun I've had DMing those encounters. As posted above, the challenging part is usually getting away undetected or making it look like an accident. I use world history as a big inspiration for ideas. This is very useful for your situation. For...

    Off the top of my head, some of these PrC have skills that could be useful in combat, but most are just based in knowledge. From Complete Divine: Church Inquisitor Contemplative Divine Oracle Evangelist Rainbow Servant Void Disciple Traps and Treachery: Courtesan Roofrunner

    *Sigh* I was hoping for something more...

    On second thought, it seems like this may be a symptom of a bigger meta-game issue. Namely, DM expectations vs. player expectations. If you really want your players to roleplay, have them understand that. Explicitly state something to the effect of "I don't like it when your characters just go...

    *Sigh* I was hoping for something more...

    I often set up things for players with the hopes of getting much more expansive answers than I usually get...such is the curse of an overactive imagination. I would try to coax the players into being more descriptive, or flesh the event out for them. For example, start at the begining of his...
