    Alrune Homebrew Campaign Setting: Brainstorm

    The cosmology of the planes is not very complex. Heaven. A skycape of crystal cities, this land is home to the gods of Lawful Good. Archons rule here, and the Angels, though present in Elysium and the Faerie Realm, are most prevalent here. Elysium. This is where Neutral Good gods live, and...

    Alrune Homebrew Campaign Setting: Brainstorm

    This is just a place where I can go about creating a campaign setting with my thought process open. There is no real content yet, I'm just brainstorming. The name Alrune is an old one. It was the name of the undetailed world in my first D&D campaign, in which I was the DM. I don't remember the...

    races for a mythic setting

    Who says Gods have to look like anything? Look at Hextor. What mortal race is he based off of? He isn't.

    Underused Monsters

    What are some underused monsters do you like to employ as a DM? I particularly like Shocker Lizards and Ythrak.

    How will WOTC prevent "group" memberships to DDI?

    They can't prevent it, it is a fact of online content.

    Racially diverse artwork in D&D...does it influence you?

    While D&D doesn't have to be in a pseudo-European setting, but if in an individual campaign it is, then anyone who wants to play a black character should probably be a foreigner. Or unless they is part of a migrant ethnic group, like the Roma (Gypsies) that originally come from India. They...

    Sun Rods are awesome!

    That typo was really laugh-out-loud funny for me for some reason.

    Sun Rods are awesome!

    I'm pretty sure they had sunrods in 3/3.5e. Were they ever this bright and convenient?

    Alignment Differences?

    Well, I've never really seen Alignments as a straightjacket, more as a label of who you are and how you can generally be expected to act. It isn't too bad if you set clear definitions of Alignments at the beginning of the game.

    DMing Gender?

    Ha! The other DMs I know are more like "you do her" before we even say anything, leading to cries of "but my character is a warforged!" or "My character is a straight female!" an so on. Which leads to long, off-topic, frankly kinky conversations involving whether or not House Cannath would build...

    Alignment Differences?

    What Alignment system do you prefer? 3e or 4e? First of all let us try to remain civil. We all have different reasons we like each alignment system, let us just calmly state them. I like the old nine alignments. It covered a broader and more realistic range of morals and ethics. I just...

    Racially diverse artwork in D&D...does it influence you?

    Why are you over-analyzing that joke so much? Humor is not supposed to be logical, or nice, or any of that.

    [DM Question] Roll-Play or Role-Play

    Often when I DM, I find myself just letting things pass without a roll if they are easy and unimportant. I mean, seriously, two carriages are two freaking feet apart, I'm not going to waste time to see if the elf sorcerer can step across during a chase and not fall and kill herself mundanely...

    DMing Gender?

    Equality in hideousness, I suppose. Anyway, I've always been frankly confused by those who suggest it is harder to roleplay a human woman than, say, a male lizardfolk. Compared to the way the Lizardfolk think, the confusion the sexes have about each others ways of thinking would be minute...

    Add Finland and I'd be that setting would be fine by me!

    Racially diverse artwork in D&D...does it influence you?

    I've always been annoyed by a diverse bunch of European cultures, and then one culture that blends all of the Middle East, all of East Asia, all of Africa, all of which are just as diverse as Europe, if not more.

    DMing Gender?

    Thank you for your greetings, my usual greetings at when I join new forums are usually: "Ugh, another n00b."

    DMing Gender?

    We all know there are those who have trouble roleplaying the opposite gender. It particularly annoys me when that person is a DM. I've had experience with one who had only one mention of a female NPC the entire game: "You see a hot elf chick...uh...do you want to do her?" Has anyone every...
