I think part of the reason Deities and Demigods is dislike so much is simply because it wasn't as good as previous incarnations and stats for gods aren't usable for most campaigns. That book didn't have as many pantheons as previous editions. The Manual of the Planes was okay, though it...

My only complain in this regard as a player is when the DM does not come out and state that he'll only allow such-and-such books. During the 3.0 years, a joined a newly formed group. Everybody was excited for the new campaign. The DM stated what was expected from each player. He didn't make...

A Flumph. It might not be an animal, but raw chaos energy can do a lot of things...like summon a flumph or twelve or thirty. And they're not LG.

My problem is that I like creating my own adventures, but I still buy modules and the like for ideas. My homebrew setting isn't a standard D&D setting either--only humans can be player races. Dwarves are evil. And there are no elves, halfings, etc. So I have some difficulty converting modules...

What if ghouls weren't undead? That would be a surprise to the experienced gamer playing a cleric, particularly a high level cleric. DM: You hear slavering sounds behind you. Turning, you see about a dozen hunched humans with yellow eyes and blood encrusted claws. They grin, revealing black...

Let's face the old cliche, sex sells. As for nudity in Fantasy Artwork, I have no problem with it, as long as it is tastefully done and doesn't discourage women (or men) from entering the hobby. A friend of mine, a female gamer, after seeing a book of fantasy artwork at a bookstore, told me...

I think it'd be great if Lorraine Williams heard about this thread, joined ENWorld, and posted her side of the story.

D&D is like the popular rock music you here on the radio in the United States. Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay is Rammstein. ---- I keep trying to get my players to play WFRP again. The first campaign was a blast but it lasted only a few sessions because the group lacked a good reason for their...

Bloody Mary Bloody Mary...

I think its time to consult: WIKIPEDIA!!! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asmodeus_%28_Dungeons_%26_Dragons%29 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asmodai Asmodeus is also the name of a band. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asmodeus_%28band%29

Drow rhymes with Cow. As in, "WotC is releasing another drow sourcebook, continuing to milk the drow cow." Now, a drow cow would probably be called a Rothe, the cattle of the underdark.

A Starcraft RPG would be pretty cool.

Don't put it up on ebay. Even though its bad, there's still a lot of good encounters in it. I've had this module for years before I decided to run it converted to 3.5. And it didn't matter that I had coverted it either, there's things about that module that just seem odd... SPOILERS: like...

$39.95!!! NOOOOOOO! That's actually a neat picture of Drizzt. Though I think WotC is trying to milk that Drow Cow, it goes against what they've said about high-level NPCs taking a back seat.

Do you play 1974 D&D with all the supplements? Like Greyhawk, Eldritch Wizardry, etc. Because I have Greyhawk and Eldritch Wizardry and it seems like a lot of what they introduce ended up in AD&D. So I figured, I might as well play AD&D. --- I'm definitely going to run AD&D for my next...

"Arioch! Arioch! Blood and souls for my lord Arioch!" The tiefling = Melinobonean connection is a strong one, though I don't think the D&D designers had that in mind for 4e. I think its just part of a long tradition in fantasy literature when humans breed with demons (or dieties), their...

Okay, I just finished my 3.5e campaign tonight, after running it for a year and half. The end of the campaign climactic battle was slowed down as the PHB was consulted again and again by players desperate to get whatever advantage they could. Even the DM's guide needed consulted by the player's...

Remember back when you first played D&D? For me, this was the tale-end of 1st Edition. I was so excited about playing dwarven fighter--just like a dwarf out of Tolkien. I couldn't wait to start playing. I got to battle orcs! "Same orcs as in the Lord of the Rings?" I asked my brother who was...

In the 1e Manual of the Planes Asmodeus fell from the Heavens before all of the current dieties were created. The Dragon #28, Baalzebub overthrew Satan, who in turn was overthrown by Asmodeus.
