    Is Lich Worth It?

    It doesn't feel like half-anything because it isn't half-way. Lich is the classic, based on a wonderful, horrid monster creation and not some committee created thingee devised at a meeting. Once you go lich you'll be da bitch! (not sure if that is permitted, but we'll find out, eh?) ;)

    Can Trolls eat themselves?

    Yeah, and that menu from the Troll Restaurant that had your favorite herd animal tied up to a post so the trolls could eat it live. and humans were considered herd beasts.... A RQ troll would not eat themselves. They had a writeup in one book about a troll that ate rocks, etc but eventually...

    Financial Grants for gaming groups from WOTC?

    That's a fantastic idea. It could be the incentive for an existing gaming group to take the steps to create a club, making a presence on a campus. Also, the idea that they proposed to use part of the money to send members to a gaming convention is also great. Wizards can get some...

    What have you played?

    I have a cleric 13/psion 1 in a PBEM game because the game made it possible. I don't use psionics in games I run. I don't own any of those books which goes far in explaining why I haven't played anything else. :) For the PBEM I used the online SRD.

    What are the top 10 elements of a Conan adventure?

    If there is one huge monster then Conan gets beat up and eventually kills the thing. If there are a bunch of normal mooks eventually one will clobber Conan on the back of the head and knock him out.

    NC Game Day XII: January 20th - BE THERE!

    There was a reason most 1e mages were Neutral tending towards Eeeeevil!! I don't recall too many that ever hestitated in the least at tossing spells where they thought they would cause the most damage. Collateral damage was someone else 'walking into my spelll!" ;)

    NC Game Day XII: January 20th - BE THERE!

    Thank you, thank you! I've found that I do well on GameDays when my character has access to some form of explosive. :D In my other game I got to try Shadows of Yesterday, and that was quite fun. Lots different from what I'm used to playing; no explosives, unless you consider the volatile...

    I'm sick of saving the world. Let's conquer it.

    If you are a villain make your plan and see it through. Gain power, oppress others and whatever else you decide to do. Villainy acts and the world will either fight you or bow and scrape beneath your heel. The DM does not need to create adventures for you - you tell him what you seek to make...
