I was playing in a jokey game, and I made an absolute Drizzt knock-off, then used ChatGPT to create prompts like, "In the style of novelist R.A. Salvatore, what would a hero who fights with two scimitars say to a witch as he was attacking?" The point was to be derivative, not creative. We had...

Immolating inquisitors with runic chainmail sound neat. A repentant Haddin, though, is very atypical. I think you might be the first GM to go that route. Most people play him as a right uncaring bastard. I admit, I am personally fond of chubby Kazyk, but yeah (I role-played him with a voice...

Thanks everyone for the ideas.

I had the party encounter some pirates who just wanted to chat, but the party got spooked and ran them off instead of getting to know them and hearing the status of the city. I added a thing where visitors to the city needed, like, passports, and since they were there illicitly, their pilot...

The party arrives in a riverside town in tonight's session. They're getting a ride from as river pirate who's also a popular bard, because criminals have street cred. Their long term goal is to ambush and heist a royal treasure barge coming this way in a few months. They're here to lay the...

Ah, always a delight to see players hating Haddin.

Sounds like he was insulting the company leadership that treated shareholder profits as more important than customer satisfaction and employee well-being. I don't begrudge people for investing. I begrudge people who make choices that hurt the people who actually make the company successful, and...

I think of Pathfinder's Golarion, where the nation of Cheliax has plenty of demons running around. Or the Magic: the Gathering setting Ravnica, where sphinxes can hold, like, elected office as judges, and angels serve in the military. What are some settings that do interesting things with this...

Yeah, the aliens always had a sort of 'violating conservation of energy' element to them. Maybe you can shrug and assume somehow Prometheus goop is supremely more complicated than we can tell, and it actually is able to tap into some sort of extradimensional energy source that allows a...

In my game, the party has been spending a few months trying to keep a queen (who is showing a strong desire to be a tyrant) from getting more power. Their current plan is going to take a big magic item she wants and give it to another city . . . which yeah, will stop her from being able to be a...

I'm apparently not as cultured as you think. I'm not familiar with that one.

Oh right, ASIs exist. I never use them myself, so I forgot.

This isn't an official answer, but yeah, I have no problem with the GM saying that you keep getting feats every 4 character levels.

We got a little sidetracked when two PCs came up with the idea to have one of them become the apprentice of an evil witch working with the high priestess Kalumum, in order to spy on her and learn how to defeat her. So that was a fun detour I had to make up on the spot. But when the 'rescue'...

I think I have a starter idea for what I want the final encounter to be. They have a boat that will be waiting for them once they get to the Chebas River, and they know what canal outlet the boat will be waiting by, so they can head for that. And along the way there will probably be some...
