    The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant

    Very angsty. If you like your heroes heroic avoid these books. The world and background are well done and interesting. They make up for the self-loathing of Thomas Covenant. Well written but very dark.

    Moving Banewarrens to SL

    I'm considering running Banewarrens for my players, but I would like to move it to the Scared Lands. Any suggestions on how to modify the module and change it to give it that SL feel?

    The Rape of Morne [Final Update]

    Simply amazing. I'm blown away every time I read this story.

    Moving to SF/Bay Area -- What's the Gaming Scene Like?

    I agree with what everyone has said about the housing market in the bay area, be prepared for a shock if you are from anywhere other than NYC. The trendier the place you live the higher the rent. The gaming scene is pretty good, I moved here about 3 years ago and found a group quickly just...

    Dwarven telepath build

    Do not ignore Psionic Focus and Greater Psionic Focus, most of your telepathy powers are save or nothing. +4 to the DC is a great bonus. Don't take Inertial Armor when you can wear masterwork studded leather with no penalties. When you get higher level invest in a mithral chain shirt for...

    Wulf's "Lazy Days" Campaign Story Hour

    Yea! An update! Good stuff, fighters gotta love it when they get a chance to actually use great cleave at higher levels. Nothing like hewing through tasloi left and right.

    Wulf's Collected Story Hour -- FINAL UPDATE 12/25

    Hey Halma if you are going to be in San Francisco (Lafayette is a ways away) drop me an email and maybe we can get together. I know DD uses scent and blindsight to get around things but the displacement will still help vs giants/outsiders/some undead/big strong nasty creatures. I agree with...

    Wulf's Collected Story Hour -- FINAL UPDATE 12/25

    Cloak of Displacement! Probably the best 50K you can spend. 50% miss chance and no chance for creatures without true seeing to crit/sneak attack you is good stuff. Then maybe get a Hand of the Mage and get an extra ring, maybe a ring of evasion or spell storing. Buy some extra utility...

    Polymorph Self and Tenser's Transformation

    Well the reson why he has so many attacks would be due to Rapid Shot and Haste. At least that is the way I see it.

    Please rate Improved Sunder

    I voted for good, but it is a suspect feat. It makes it almost too easy to slice through peoples weapons. A 2nd lv fighter should not be able to break nearly every weapon without effort. This feat is even worse in the hands of big monsters like giants. Say good-bye to your prized magic weapon.

    Monster Manual II Art Gallery!

    *drools* What a great collection of creatures! I love the inclusion of the Spelljammer and Dark Sun critters. Waiting is hard.

    worst GenCon gamer

    Ok so this isn't my bad experience but one a friend had at Gen Con. He and another friend were playing a Werewolf game. From what he told me the plot was pretty good and things were going well, until the Storyteller had my friend roleplay out having the runs. The storyteller also had an NPC...

    ENnies and the EN World Gathering in 2003

    I really like Dinkeldog's idea of having an offical or even unofficial EN World meeting place. A place where people can meet to hang out or get together that isn't tied to the EN World gathering night. It would have made it easier to find people and meet up (Hey Dinkeldog!). An EN World...

    Piratecat's GenCon report

    I still can't believe that Doctor Doom asked you to sign his nipple. We had been talking earlier and joking about ways to introduce one's self to the "famous" Piratecat. I said we should ask him to sign our nipples, we laughed a lot at that, then I lost track of Doom. I wandered off to talk...

    Gay men or women who play D&D

    When I first joined my group out here, I was the token straight guy out of the five of us. They were out from the beginning but sex doesn't come up too much during the game. There are a lot of jokes about visiting the bathhouse though. Now our group is balanced with 3 straigh, 3 gay...

    Brutal Seething Surge

    Is it written as a daze effect or a stun effect? That really makes the difference. Daze is pretty bad, but not as bad as "CDG bait" stunned. It might be better as a 4th lv. spell if the damage was left at 1d8+lv with no limit. If the damage is changed to +10 max that is probably pretty...

    Eric at GenCon -- the Special Collector's Edition Thread

    If I had the opportunity to play games every day I would happily get up at 6:30 every morning (gamer understatement of the year)! Though I'm sure there were people who were much more sleep deprived than I that were wandering around gaming that morning. Thank goodness I didn't partake of more...

    Relics & Rituals 2?

    I got a look at it but didn't get a copy. The had a mistake on Thursday and put some out when they were't supposed to. Some lucky people bought them and got to keep them. From my quick look through the book it looks really good. Once again lots of spells and it looks like even more...

    EN World Gen Con Gathering??

    I concur with Dinkeldog and Eridanis. Great work WilliamRonald!

    Piratecat's GenCon report

    I was going to say something witty about wanting to be included like Dinkeldog but I just can't think of anything. I just hope he includes the names for some of the poems Nemmerle thought up during our game. More please. :D
