The villagers are neutral. You don't know why they won't give you supplies. They just don't seem to trust you.

Question: "Your party stops at a village for much needed supplies. The village elder won't sell or give you any, and can't be persuaded otherwise; he's not evil, he just doesn't seem to trust you. The party is strong enough to take the supplies by force. What would your party do?" Notes...

The answer to this one was: Onion. Here is a classic: Marble walls as white as milk, lined with skin as soft as silk, with a fountain, crystal clear, a golden apple doth appear. There are no doors to this stronghold, yet thieves break in and steal the gold.

You probably keep forgetting because its a silly rule! A snake would clearly use DEX as a modifier rather than Strength.

IP is completely out of control, particularly patents. There are some companies that do nothing but hunt down and buy older IP, and then try to profit by suing everyone that might possibly violate their "hard earned" IP. At the same time as companies are trying to claim ownership of everything...

Here's a shot at 2 of Balgus' riddles 2. Your enemies? 4. Sounds like the elements Earth, Fire, and the last could either be Water or Wind. And here is a really old riddle, I'm a great help to women, and the hope of something to come. I harm none except for my slayer, and stand rooted in a...

Yes a potato. Too easy I guess. Great riddle thread. Thanks for the link. Here's another one for all you hobbits out there. I begin with an e and end with an e, I contain only one letter, Yet I'm not the letter e.

I remember playing a scenario for Tunnels & Trolls many years ago (I think it was Catacombs of the Bear Cult) that required the players to either fight a Sphinx or to answer his riddle to pass. Riddles also feature prominently in the Hobbit. How many of you have used riddles in your campaign...

I must admit I have a fondness for BRP. Runequest was the second system I played frequently (the first was Tunnels and Trolls which wasn't on the list!). I also played a lot of Call of Cthulu in college. To me BRP seemed much simpler and more logical than original D&D.

They, 1. Slobber and drool, 2. Devour the bodies and souls of the unworthy, 3. Hunger and thirst for unrighteousness, and 4. Play D&D

Your dungeons have indoor plumbing!!!! Consider that until recently open sewers were the norm in most cities, and chamber pots and windows served as latrines.

I think Twin Rose just added it this morning. Thanks Sean

Could someone please add Betabunny Publishing, and The Bestiary: Predators to the database? Also, I would like myself granted permissions to add and edit product details for Betabunny Publishing. Thanks, Sean

Inject more realism into your game. . . . The Bestiary: Predators provides the most extensive, most accurate coverage of predatory animals from the real world ever released for any roleplaying system. The descriptions and data for all the animals in this Bestiary have been painstakingly...

I would vote "no". It's not an entry level system. An entry level system would have only a fraction of the rules that 3.5 has. 3.5 (and 3.0 for that matter) were written with the experienced player in mind. Without prior experience of other systems, or another player to teach them, I think most...

It would probably be useful to have the party draw up an agreement of how to deal with the possessions of their fallen comrades in future. Even without an agreement, I would definitely say the paladin was acting out of character. Was it just a free-for-all item grab, or did the party discuss...

The focus of the Bestiary is definitely on animals as foes. The number of species I was covering became too large, so I had to narrow the focus a little. It is my intention to handle rules for familiars, training etc., through supplements and freebies, so at some point it will make sense to...

There are unfortunately only 5 surviving species of Tiger. 3 are extinct. For the sake of completeness, and because they went extinct recently, I include both the extant and extinct species. Sorry to disappoint you in not including foxes. They were included in an earlier draft, but eventually I...
