    The darkness in us all

    Base of Operations PartII The next couple of days were filled with exploration for the new abbey. The party helped scout and escort. Roland was in and out splitting his time with his companions and seeing to Wyrmcrest. It was slow going they had sent a small contingent back to report of the...

    Forge the world with me

    I like this train of thought. I have already set the Pantheon. Though yours is a very cool idea. I think I shall put that one in my bag for later! I like the arc too. I think that fits and I believe I can make it function for the PC's backstories as well.

    Assassination of the Prince

    So just go Orc and Pie on it. Play the encounter to the PC's strengths let them win. Make it fun and tough. Don't get me wrong let them do the work for it. Essentially you let them make the encounter. The where the when the how. Maybe flesh out 3 options your dwarf contact can hint to...

    The darkness in us all

    Cleansing the Abbey ( WotC free adventure “Base of Operations”) Part I Titus was silent the rest of the journey. No one wanted to bother him just yet. Morganis sat slumped over in his saddle still very pale and weak. Thorn had revealed himself and his true intention in stopping the...

    Forge the world with me

    Im not actually running an adventure path(published or in my brain). I had a thought that I would really work hard with the players and the back story of each one. That I would determine where they actually went. Each one has certain goals and what not. Like our first "season" culminated in...

    Forge the world with me

    Now I need some sweet ideas for Wyrmcrest. It's a large Gygaxian keep each room is a puzzle and once solved either gives up some item that can help, or another clue to help with another room(though not necessarily intregal to the puzzles completion)

    My First campaign: Need Dming advice/tips

    Well good luck on running the game. A couple observations. A your party is small(Im sure you know this) so you are lacking some skill sets that most adventures assume that you have. You have no arcane caster. You especially have to be careful if you use a published adventure. You can look here...

    Forge the world with me

    So I just had one player throw me a brilliant curveball. I told you of the veiling the event that sealed off the "Pale Lands" from the rest of the world erecting the mystic barrier. I had the players write up a short synopsis of their guys for the story hour. Find that here...

    The darkness in us all

    Forge the world with me

    Sweetness on the assassins. I had actually decided that Rhone would be an aspect or avatar of Rallaster and Rhone doesn't actually grant spells or recieve worship they have less than 300 followers in the order. I love the hierarchy though! As for the millitary it's like this. The Imperial City...

    The darkness in us all

    This was our official first session. If anything is unclear let me know. You guys have missed out on some back story and since it is a homebrew world I have done my best to present it in a way that is readable and makes sense. We do a lot of roleplaying and petty stuff through email that way...

    The darkness in us all

    The plan comes together “Roland will you please come with us? You really have become a friend and you’ve proven your mettle more than once over.” Utah pleaded. The astute gun slinging lore master shook his head “In another life perhaps. But my ancestral manor beckons me. I must answer her...

    Forge the world with me

    The Hydra deity works good too because I was steering towards not having a bunch of different monster cultures but rather a mother of monsters. So I could introduce a Yuan-Ti abomination and not have to worry about where it comes from and all the other stuff that comes with that. So that works...

    Forge the world with me

    So yeah that Houses of the Holy pretty much rocks and I will be using it. One more thing I have put in place a group of assassins known as the Brothers of Rhone. In fact one of the PC's have abandonned them. What is the hierarchy of the brotherhood? (Right now the Field agents are known...

    Using mood music properly in RPGs- looking for advice

    The blackout thing was awesome! Yeah the light is a funny thing. Let me add that forcing it to work becomes tedious. I also remembered that in an x crawl campaign my character had his own theme music that "They" would play when he did something awesome.

    Forge the world with me

    So in the area of the deity I have really only two faiths set. The first is more of a political power in the church of Bahamut. It is the official Imperial Religion and other good deities are allowed to be worshiped there and such. All other temples must pay to Bahamut and such. Think of it as a...

    Forge the world with me

    So we've been running this campaign for about two months now. I love its a homebrew d20 system that is points and skill driven. I did not flesh the entire world out. I tend to over do things. Tack giant sized poster maps up, detail history and cultures to a pain. I have felt I fill in to many of...
