I'm going to be sending my PC's to a region of the world where there are two gaint lakes (ala The Great Lakes). What I need is some interesting plot ideas to use as side treks or to weave into my current storyline. Some things to help you: -The general world vibe is somewhere between...

Site? This sounds like a nice opportunity, but your site appears to be down.

Scroll Details I'm not planning on giving the PC's one of the Nine main scrolls because I'd give them too much power. I'm treating "The Nine" as somewhere between Gods and Artifacts. They have, however, met a dragon who controls the CG Scroll. He filled them in about the Scrolls and their...

Anyone? Anyone? Bueler? So, does anyone have any thoughts on how this world is coming along? Advice? Things you find cool? Anything? I could use some feedback, here.

I hate to put it this way, because ordinarily I would think of it as a cop out answer, but the answer to your question is... Magic. The premise of my game world is that there are nine ancient/god-like/artifact level scrolls. One is tuned to each alignment. These scrolls are the cause of all...

Anyone?

Scrolls So, I've been running the game for a little while now, and things are starting to fall into place. Scrolls have become a theme. The knowledge was lost by the Nine Cyclops when they tried to trap it in scrolls. Those scrolls are now powerful arifacts, one dedicated to each...

My new gameworld centers around magical scrolls, many of which are prophetic. The PC's recently acquired their own prophetic scrolls and are learning of the power within them. Each of these scrolls is connected to the essence of it's wielder. What I'm trying to do is come up with some powers...

The only way I could come up with to help the everyone doing the same thing problem would be to give all of the PCs some Godly powers. That was what I was gewttting at with the Godlings vs. Gods generational conflict thing. It would also keep each PC unique because you could tell each player...

Wow! That's alot to undertake. Sounds like you'll have to spend more time planning it than you do playing it. Good Luck. Potential problems: When you start at high level, oyu tend to forget what your charecter can do because you didn't earn the abilities level by level. Make sure your...

That's a great idea! Sagan: Good call with the this is for your betterment stuff. I'll work that in down the line. Right now the PC's only know that most of the humans have gone missing. dglass: I like the teleportation bringing demons idea. Thanks! I may even run a plotline in which the...

I'm actually trying to shy away from Steampunk with the exception of the Gnome and the train plot. It's classic fantasy, with the other stuff just for flavor. i.e. No Victorian stuff. I'm doing the Gnomes up different to make them more interesting and hopefully to get people to play them...

The Details O.K. Here are the details I lost last time: The Elves are the Big Bad. The main conflict is freeing the surface world from their rule. The knowledge the Elves gained was the use of magic. They have used it to conquer most of the humaniod races of the surface world. The...

Gnomish and Dwarven parents tell this tale to their children. It is both cautionary and true. "Long ago, the Nine Cyclops were stewards of all Knowledge. In their paranioa and vanity, they tried to contain the Knowledge; keeping it to themselves. The Knowledge was displeased with this and...

The Query is Good. Wonder of wonders, I just heard back and my article proposal was accepted. Now all I have to do is go over it, have someone edit it real quick and send the puppy off. Sunshine Day, everybody's happy! :)

Oh, and Darkbard, no harm taken. I'm new to this board and I appreciate the good natured welcome. :)

Jesse- I appreciate you taking the time to address my concern. I thought that might have been the case, but with modern technology being what it is, I thought I would ask. Thank you for the prompt response.

Thanks. I had submitted some stuff about two years ago, and got fairly prompt responses to my queries. I wasn't sure if things had changed since then, what with the new owners and all. No biggie, I'm patient. -ThaDium

I'm hoping someone can answer this for me: So, I submitted an article query to Dragon about a month ago, and haven't heard back yet. Is this par for the course, or should I start thinking something went wrong? I'm assuming they get back to you with both "Yes" and "No" answers. Thanks in...
