When I first started gaming, I would never have told my players to roll their stats. Now I'm starting to like the idea more and more, because of the roleplaying opportunities and general randomness. I like the way it is done in Gamma World: you have an 18 in your primary score and a 16 in your...

This is a really fun idea! Obviously not for every item, but one per adventure could be done like this. I'll try it some time and tell you what I come up with!

Looks like a freaky evolution of Cubone.

Yeah, I would assume that they're equivalent, for the same reason that monsters are supposed to be able to carry over from one game to another. They just lowered the XP values to make leveling up faster, I guess. Maybe a lesson they learned from complaints that it took too long to go from...

I think it would be fun if, every so often, all the names for each level was changed. Kobolds and goblins are iconic and all, but what about xivorts and kruthiks? And April Fools would be that much better. =D

I was actually just coming in here to find out why my signature was changed! Thanks, and no problem. I chose cold colors instead!

Enabling_Seeker A seeker build that uses Wisdom primarily and Intelligence secondarily, primary controller secondary leader. A lot of people think the seeker is a bland excuse for a controller that uses weapons. I think it has a unique niche in the world: a primal warrior that leaves its...

This sounds fun and balanced while still making sense in the game world. Instead of 1 point every round, though, make it 1 point every time you hit with an attack. That way, you can't just stand there "gaining adrenaline" or whatever before unleashing an awesome attack; you have to work to...

Gamma World says that when both your origins have the same ability score, it is 20 instead of 18, but you have to roll all 5 others.

One of my players is a githzerai wizard who was once a powerful mage who murdered a young couple and tried to kill their son, but his magic missile backfired and he was reduced to level 1. His name is Voldemort. Another one of my players always tries to have her character (a warlord) rush...

Being in Boston, more than I feel like counting. =)

The crest/foam on top of a wave in the ocean? Seems TOO obvious...

I guess you could roll randomly, but I'd say you'd be less of a chicken if you decided to pick your race and class. ;) Your class is your primary origin and your race is your secondary origin, so a mountain dwarf daevek fighter would have a Strength of 18 from the class, and the...

You're right, it does seem a bit powerful...I'll check out the balance when the holiday's over and get back to this thread.

Dungeon_World D&D tropes with Gamma World themes? How will that work out? Let's find out! It's going to be silly, epic, and hopefully fun, and I appreciate all the input I can get! Here's a preview of one of my ideas (feel free to suggest your own!): MOUNTAIN DWARF You can't be...

I don't get it. Build up castles; okay, yeah, that's clever and funny! Tear down mountains? Make some men blind; well, temporarily. Help others to see?

"Note to self: time travel is not a good idea." --- "But Legolas could do it!" --- "HOW DARE YOU CALL ME BEHEMOTH!"

Stop being such a DM!

I remember studying that poem in high school, so I know the answer, but I'm going to let someone else guess. =) For TC's #3, the last two lines and the clue makes it seem like a pair of glassesbut the first two lines sound likeconstruction...civilization...? (building castles and tunneling...

Looks like it. I'll have to read up on it. I hope it lives up to the standard that Dark Sun set. So many new and original mechanics and story in there (original for 4e, mind you), like defiling and themes. I hope the next campaign setting can bring just as much.
