Hiya everyone - It's been quite some time since our Sins campaign ended and, I have to admit, I was ready to set aside the DM Hat for a time. I've never really had the opportunity to be a player in a long-running campaign, and felt like giving it a shot. Matt (who played John the Bard and...

Dammit. So a purchase of a revised edition Valus is out of the question? What if I threw in a few dozen old dice, a case of Diet Cherry Vanilla Dr. Pepper, and a hearty hug of thanks? D

Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for the link Joshua! D

I've been huddling in the basement with my family since my whole post about guys playing female PCs. That's the bad news. The good news is that I have both Hong and Piratecat in a trunk next to the water heater. A man's got to have his gimps.

Hi all - I'm wondering if there's a site somewhere on the net that gives suggested stats for primitive firearms (flintlocks, muzzleloaders, matchlocks, etc.). Anyone got any links? Thanks, D

You're a good writer, Erik. Very interesting site. Can't say I agree with some of your non-D&D views, seeing as how I've been "over there" and have seen firsthand how kind, open-hearted, and truly generous many, many Americans (and Brits, and Poles) are to folks less fortune than themselves...

I just have to pop in to say something I've been meaning to say ever since pogre's and mortepierre's pimps brought this yarn to my attention: The Happenings of Lucifus Cray is the best damned story hour title out there. It's worthy of a book in itself. I've already yoinked the name for an...

Welcome to the boards, Rant! Greyhawk DM kindly did all the legwork and plunked the first thread of this story hour into a Word doc. You can download it (in three installments) at the bottom of the first post on this new thread. I'm not sure what the odds are, but Sep just updated - so...

Aha! I empathize, and have been known to do the same thing. I think the longer SHs are infinitely more readable in some nice, tidy doc format. Anything to shirk work. Thanks for reading, Mr. Bones, and for stopping by. It's always nice to hear someone's reading those older yarns, and it's...

Thanks Ryltar! Glad you enjoyed the book. Of the 1.2 million that have been sold, 350,000 have gone to overseas customers. Well, maybe those numbers are a bit off, but the proportion (I think) is close to the same. I think that's indicative of the diversity within the EN World community...

Awesome, Druby, awesome. Great pic, cute kid, killer dungeon. And he already has that "You're next!" look so well suited for a future RBDM.

Hi didly doo, Yer Majesty Mr. Jay - the art is attached to post #304. Al MacFarlane (one of our own EN Worlders) did his impression of a roven (think half-gnoll). Roven don't appear in this story hour, but they're in the sourcebook. I just liked the pic so much I wanted to post it here. I...

Better. I think there are more stories of higher quality now than there have been since I first started lurking (about 2 years ago). That may be simply because I've had the time to check out more threads. The first time I ventured into this area, I hit Piratecat's then Sepulchrave's then...

Ah, but it was the type of beer. Notice how Motega brought a case of Guinness last session and he seems to be doing quite well in the campaign? whee, D

TD - please drop me a line to let me know what you think. Especially if you plan on using it for a campaign, and especially-especially if you plan on basing said campaign in Luc Valu (I know of no Valus-based campaigns set within the southern part of the island - including my own). Hrmph! :)...

I'll throw a fly in the ointment when it comes to categorizing my views: I have zero issues with drag queens or transvestites. Granted, I haven't drank beer with too many of them. I did spend a couple days in Thailand with a few...but I saw much, much stranger things during that eye-opening...

I'm not sure why it matters? But, ah, I'm not sure we both can't be correct. I'm pretty certain Bob's post said that he believes my villains would not be above doing nasty things to good people. I have a (comatose) story hour that, incidentally, caused some problems when I portrayed things...

I try to put this aside and move on with equally profound issues (like coaching tee ball), but it keeps pulling me back. I don't like to ignore questions, and I feel I've ignored some that were put to me. Let's see if I can knock them off one by one. 1) Would I prefer a female gamer to play a...

When I started this whole thread I thought I was somewhat open-minded. I felt a bit guilty about asking one of my players to change his back-up character from female to male. I came to the boards to see if, indeed, that was wrong of me. I truly believe I could have been convinced that my...

Sorry - I was referring to the "on camera" caveat you had mentioned. Yes, bad things happen to people within the campaign setting we're playing. Villages get looted and burned and innocent folks sometimes kick the bucket. I hate the world 'realism' in this context, but the world is...
