Back on the case Damn, that's a fun setup :D Lot's of possibilities, and ground to cover. OK, to avoid gibbering, I'll try to divide the two main themes: power-vacuum and the drug eco. Right now, it's a scarcely inhabited, badly protected, low-profit area nobody gives a s. about. A nuisance...

My preference is to have cleric come up with who their god is, and if he believes that there are others. I treat PHB table of deities as template, and list of gods as filled examples. Of course everyone is more than welcome to worship gods who's followers have major organizations in homebrews...

Hehe, I had a good laugh. I wanted just to skim through posts, and got a strange selection of first lines: At this point I was like: what is that, a roleplaying wise-guys forum? It was only my selective reading, but the image stuck :D BTW, imagine a cheesy gangstorama RP-session: -Hey Mikey...

Hidden escort: PC's are hired to watch over a man who underestimates the danger he might be in(maybe a son of a mobster posing as a powerful merchant(PC's don't need to know the mob part, at least not initially)). He will be attending a not-so-legal gambling tournament, organized by a local...

My first thought was: "bah, why not use 3.x then?", my rationale being that characters in PF get a power boost at the beginning, and DS is all about being puny. Buuut, then I remembered that for the very same reason it was advised to start them at 3rd lvl when starting a DS campaign :P As to...

Could I enter the contest, and in event of wining the Red Box, just ask for it to be given to Child's Play? I figure the US-only rule is due to shipping costs, and that would take care of it (probably wouldn't even have to be interstate delivery).

Hello! First thing that sprung into my mind was "huh, sounds like Hahagana". See, Israeli Defence Forces come more or less directly from paramilitary organization that was created after I WW in British Mandate for Palestine to defend jewish settlers. To date it's one of very few armies that...

Yeah, that ought to be 450-x (and 470 on the spot, apparently :P). Since only the Lost Bugbear is off, it seems it was my cock-up afterall. Maybe I'll look into it again sometime soon, but for now I'll just update the post. Thanks for the heads up! BTW - what was the xp power of the user who...

Well, you can. Rarely do programmers make a system without backdoor, and same is true for pdf's. Can't say if there is software available now that's on par with current versions of file, but last time I used those (some years ago) I had a programme that didn't even have to make brute force...

It seems that a lot of people write their names in. In case this interests you: making own ex libris is fairly easy and cheap, and it really looks better. There are two main ways to go around to it: if you want monochromatic - a stamp, and if you want colour, or just more detail - a sticker. The...

The enhancement had to be spread appropriately. Just as monks whole body is treated as one weapon, whole set (bandages for hands, headband and tabi for feet (also bandages at first IIRC)) of protector wrappings were treated as one enhanced weapon. *Just as giving turbo only to front, rear, left...

Stamp in Ex Libris, and that's that. When I absolutely need to write inside of books, I use small post-it like strips, but it never came up with RPG manuals.

Electrum, tumbaga, occasionally tombac. All my silver coins are made out of billon, often a cheap one :P But where the fun starts, are the fakes. In homebrew settings (but also wherever I can justify it), I use different coins for different countries. Because of the alloys, the weight of coins...

Try not to have more than two NPC's at one time in conversation. If you have to introduce another one, have it either exclude one, or talk specifically to the other, so that there's always only 2 people talking to each other - it will be hard enough to sustain those. Not all players respond well...

Out of curiosity, Ambrus - did you, by any chance, solve the puzzlebox?

Um... I dunno why no one mentioned this one before, but what about enhancing protectors for hands and feet, something like bandages? We used to have a lot of monks in our group, as one of friends was national champion in karate (juniors), and he liked to play monks in MERPG, and he continued to...

Well then, there you have it, straight from the horses mouth - yay for EnWorld ;-P I'd guess it'll avoid quite a few TPK's by newbie GM's. I remember the surprise of both players and GM when a dragon with "appropriate" CR (slightly on +, as most enemies we faced then) wiped floor, walls and...

The casual quoting and ignoring context is very disturbing as well ;-) Why on earth any of those would be sexist is, frankly beyond me. Let me elaborate: "There is NO worse player than the DM's girlfriend or wife." - because they are in relationship, which causes the DM to be overly...

I always got the impression that most women hate other women guts, and their cheerfulness to each-other rises exponentially with amount of ill will. Unless OP would manage to always dress slightly worse than, hehe, Dungeon Mistress. But wear Prada's red heels once, and she'll tear your character...
