    Your dentist makes you kneel? Mine has a chair for me to sit in :-) Anyway, just wanted to say that I too am really enjoying this story. Duncan

    Homophobic Elves

    Re: Re: Default Fantasy Sexuality Just to counter your claim about this being nonesense, I have dug up the article I referred to. It can be seen at: http://www.pflag-nb.org/religion/rcatholic/gay-marriage.html with the heading: --- Catholic Scholar Uncovers Church's Gay Marriage Past by Peter...

    Relics and Rituals 2!!! I GOT IT!!! (More)

    It's been out for months :-) I think it came out at the same time as the campaign book. Duncan

    Homophobic Elves

    (note: I just want to point something out here, not intending to flame anyone or start a flame war) I read an article last year about a researcher's findings into this. He decided to check out cemetries, and found that up to the mid-1800s same sex couples were being buried together in Catholic...

    *whimper*

    This intrigued me too, so I went looking... http://www.deepsoft.com/cgi-bin/deepwoods.cgi/RolePlayingDB Seems to be the item in question. Duncan

    Story Hour feedback

    Re: Re: Re: Story Hour feedback I've been thinking about something like this as well. I want people to be able to view the characters as they were designed at that point in the campaign, and I want to hyperlink to various details (eg, who this group is, where that location is, etc). So, my...

    Homophobic Elves

    The issue here is that Hero can imply male or female, while Heroine can only be female. So, if they changed it to be "A Land In Turmoil Cried Out for a Heroine - She Was Xena...!" then one would wonder why the land wasn't interested in having a male hero, only a female. They could try "A Land...

    Mundane or magical diseases detailed?

    I was going to add the same, Nightfall. But there is only a few diseases in WotR; I felt it a shame not to see more. I've just started a Scarred Lands campaign, and I wanted the first adventure to involve disease. Between those listed in the DMG and those in WotR there was only about a dozen...

    Is Now the Time to Send WOTC a Real Message?

    Boycott? I'm not sure if I'll boycott WotC. I haven't bought a lot of product from WotC lately. I've just started running a new campaign set in the Scarred Lands, and haven't bought the lastest stuff for FR. I do want to buy Call of Cthulhu D20, and probably MMII, Book of Vile Darkness, and...

    Relics and Rituals 2!!! I GOT IT!!! (More)

    When I first read that rule in R&R I just took it as a joke, a way to explain nekkid lady pics. :-) But last week I started a Scarred Lands campaign, and the mage was taking off his outer clothing to cast a spell (when he had time to do it - I forgot about it when he cast in combat). Anyway...

    Pdfs and Print on Demand?

    I'm imagining that the store would have a printed copy of products available for previewing. Then you would order your PoD copy through them. If they get enough volume then shipping costs (per item) are reduced, making it more viable. Duncan

    How do I inspire a lax player?

    Are you sure he realises he can do these things? Perhaps you could make occasional suggestions to him or to the group. For instance, in the searching instance, you could have said "can anyone help to increase the searcher's result?" (btw, wouldn't Aid Another help in this circumstance?) In...

    Have gamers ever been tolerant?

    I disagree with this. I've been attending conventions in (Eastern) Australia since 1986, and I've heard the term Munchkin for a long time. In fact, I remember a team at conventions in Sydney in the early to mid 90s who called themselves Munchkins as their team name. Anyway, to answer the...

    Is Mirc better for me?

    mIRC is a programming allowing one to connect to Internet Relay Chat (IRC). So yes, it's a type of chatroom. One can even use mIRC to connect to the chatrooms connected to these boards. Duncan

    Where have your dice BEEN?

    Well, I'm not going to actually satisfy the poster's request for pictures, since I don't have any way to do that at the moment. But, my current dice bag (and most of the contents) have now visited 4 continents. I'd like to get to all 7, but I think Antartica will be the hardest. Duncan

    Pdfs and Print on Demand?

    I think that both are good ideas. And I'm just wondering if they could be combined. For instance, not being in the US, for me postage can be a killer. But if I could go into my FLGS, preview some PDF products that are available, and order them there as Print On Demand, that would be great...

    What is TPK and IRRLC?

    To add to this, I believe that TINLA stands for "This is not Legal Advice" - often seen hand in hand with IANAL. Duncan

    What is TPK and IRRLC?

    Before Masters of the Wild was named as an upcoming product, MotW stood for Monster of the Week, a column on Wizards of the Coast's (WotC's) website. One that I've had trouble with is BoEM - which is Book of Eldritch Magic (and BoEMII now), a Monte Cook product. It really annoys me when...

    I assume you are talking about this... ---------- ---------- Read it again. And if you don't understand by then, well, you can continue to dread the arrival of 4th Ed. Duncan
