    Running an Urban Adventure

    Urban Jungle. Even though its above ground, it can still be a dungeon. I'm not fond of dungeon crawls, but I think it could be done if that's what your used too. And after reading it, I think you have alot of good material. I think the players might lead you to places you didn't think about...

    The Most Powerful Item

    yes, those two swords are the nasty of nasty...I'd try and use them too if I could, it would be fun. Yeah, with those sword I think cthulhu might have a run for his money.

    The Most Powerful Item

    Mornblade...or Stormbringer Both do something like 1d8+5+2d6's+1d100 and all of this was CON damage. It was a soul sucking sword. Nice huh, yeah the swords were in the game "Dragonlords of Melnibone" they were Elric's swords, but I just thought I'd mention them. But in one game that went...

    What type of characters would you like to play in a 1-shot

    Something evil, something that made me outside of myown party, like "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" sort of deal. And not a vampire, or a drow, I mean something just, well, what would be the big bad thing that by the end of the game everyone would say "ahh....yeah, its going to eat us if we...

    The Opposite of Railroading...

    Well, then I would say that he players are Jerks. Why don't people just say that. If the DM told me "hey, the Dungeon makes the game, you are all MAKING dungeon-crawling player-types." then I would know, atleast, at the start of the game, that's it; its the place to be. On the other hand, just...

    The Opposite of Railroading...

    and I would only add, that either at the start, or later in the game, the DM makes it so that many, if not all of the plots were linked in some way shape or form: this guy knew that guy, he was the one that talked to her, they are the reaso for that....bla bla bla. But, yes, he's right. Draw...

    The Opposite of Railroading...

    Not so, or I could be wrong. But railroading, as I know it, is pushing or even forcing the players to along with the plot in such away that they can do little else (or I could be wrong, but if so, then I agree that the word is a bit harsh) Example: someone is out to get the king, the players...

    Roleplaying your dump-stat

    Its not simply your physcial looks; its how people view you, how easily they may except you. Ugly people can be charismatic just as pretty people can be soical retards. Perhaps he's just with drawn, quiet...an introvert for w/e reason. Just think about it, and you'll come up with something. Game ON

    Does "Fantasy Role Playing" attract people who have a hard time in reality?

    The TRUTH Yes...and really, anyone who says otherwise is more than likely one of those people and wish not to see themselves as such. We all know the kind, we all try to avoid certain types...we can see them coming; we don't want the guy with the anger issues in our game, or the person who...

    Roleplaying/story regardless of consequences

    The player sounds like an ass, or atleast, playing one "I play one on TV" and the DM sounds like he just wants to put players through the ringer, which is also an ass-like thing to do. I don't like either, or maybe I'm not getting your meaning. Game On

    Low Magic Campaigns?

    If you want, its a little bit of a hard find, try the Wheel of Time. Its very low magic, no spell or spell like abilites, no supernatural abilities...or w/e. Some creatures both friend and foe have such things, but they are monsters; or back ground fantasy. The only people who have magic, are...

    Help me build a Vampiric City!

    Yes, Yes...let me be without a soul too; let me walk undead for ever, never able to again enjoy life as a mortal, to feed upon the blood of the living, fear sunlight, and be a monster to all beings alike like some sort of plauge....yes yes let me be a VAMPIRE because I can sing and...

    Your own personal gaming terms...

    I got a few "A Wheel of Bree for all my Men" - What in the (*&^% did you just do, that was the bigest load of &^%$# ever; you see that color in your eyes, in a moment its going to be yellow. "And so, this is what happens"- ok, who did the dumb thing that the DM has to make sure everyone is...

    Help me build a Vampiric City!

    Ahahaha This is the best quote on the entire thread. “Can’t cross running water” so what, they are carried over like people in wheel chairs? Aren’t there roads, bridges, wooden planks? Have you ever seen what Venice looked like in the 12th and 16th century? (and anyways, that popular note...

    Gangs, Glitterspice & Hostages

    Well, you have some work.... Ok, well, I didn’t even want to finish reading it, but I did.. In truth, it was just too loaded down with cliches and things that just seem to be way way to forced. I get it, there’s a kidnaping and it’s for first level players: but not sure if this is for newbies...

    How to un-cheese D&D?

    You can do it, but it might hurt your players. Cut out all spell like, and supernatural feats and abilities. Remember...your humans, or human like...this doesn't mean you can fly or punch through walls. This goes for monsters as well, unless you want just that one thing that is really nasty and...

    How to un-cheese D&D?

    Once again, see his #11. Why does everyone think that, just because You'd take all the combat spells, that every wizard is loaded down with nothinig but fireballs and lightning bolts. I once played a game, where during the night, one of the players peeked at my sheet and said "hey, why do you...
