    When Bob wants to play a female PC

    Didn't know what KODT was until I followed that link. I changed the guy's name from Bill to Bob for this scenario simply because I'm wily. You and me both. D

    When Bob wants to play a female PC

    Those of you who disliked my stance may take some solace in the fact that EN World sent me 432 emails announcing new posts on this thread. If it takes me four hours to unsubscribe to a thread, how on earth can I be expected to deal with such weighty and mature issues as these? Speaking of...

    When Bob wants to play a female PC

    Well, I know I used the word 'hang-up', but I really don't see it as that. Or, at least, I didn't see it as that until the flood of anti-Destan posts came tumbling into my inbox. Now I'm fairly certain that I belong to a very, very small minority on this issue. While that doesn't necessarily...

    When Bob wants to play a female PC

    It seems that most of the other folks that would have problems with this type of thing are concerned on grounds of whether the player would somehow mock/stereotype the proposed back-up character. I must admit - that's not the case, here. I think the player could probably play a pretty balanced...

    When Bob wants to play a female PC

    Hi all, I have a confession to make. Recently, one of my players and good friends asked to make a female back-up character. The player is male. I asked him to switch the back-up character's gender. I rarely, if ever, deny a player's request to play a certain type of character. So long as...

    Throne of Iuz Maps (Dungeon 118)

    Mike: I think they're excellent. Truly. I've yoinked two maps off the Paizo site for a fledgling Fantasy Grounds (fantasygrounds.com) online game I'm running. Those two were the Hant Camp and the lowest level of the Serpent Mound. I hope you'll get a warm fuzzy whenever I kill a few PCs...

    Faded Glory Pimp-o-Rama

    Ahh...redeye flights...the best inspiration for diving into a little nerdiness. Your tale's easy on the eyes without the pdf, but I'll bet it's even better now. Heck, I only jumped aboard about halfway through, so this may get my butt in gear to check out the older stuff. Did you happen to...

    From the Rules of the Game:All About Grappling (Part One):

    Grappling Basics on WotC Site - Incorrect? On the WotC site: "You share your foe's space when you're grappling. If you and your foe are different sizes, use the larger of the two space entries. Any attack that can reach the shared space can hit you. You don't get cover from a foe you're...

    Valus d20 setting: ever heard of it?

    Valus? I've heard of it. Also heard the author's a complete ass. Time to start another poll, methinks. Looks like the lies I told to you at Gen Con have finally been revealed! Argh! Um...I'll give you a back rub. But that's about it. For those who have Valus, thanks. For those who...

    Horror on the Hill - your experiences?

    I'm in love. Seriously, throw in Isle of Dread and Lost Caverns of Tsojcanth, and you've nailed my Top Four of All Time. Alll of them bring back waves of happy nostalgia. Can't remember anything specific about HotH, unfortunately, though I think I too colored in Mr. Holloway's art. :)...

    In the Valus - The Heroes of Marchford (Chapter 14 Continues - 12/24/08)

    So far, so good. But then: Aiiiieeeee, that poor child! Seriously, though - congrats to you. You're 25% closer to having your own standard party of four PCs. D

    Semi-pertinet to the topic: There's a decent collection of JG stuff for sale, in print form, at: http://diffworlds.com/judges_guild.htm On another note: Is Griffon Mountain a JG product? Thanks, D

    Gaming Table

    Aha! But can you do better than...THIS! Ultimate Gaming Table, eat your heart out! I submit this picture of the World's Crappiest Gaming Table (TM). Cost about $30 and took about two hours. And boy, does it look it. I chopped apart my kids' train table to make that raised miniatures/map...

    Sins of Our Fathers II - New Art Uploaded - 1/25

    Hiya all, No update, per se, but just got a great piece of art from EN World's very own Aussie Al MacFarlane. It's his interpretation of a roven, a gnoll-like nomadic race from the Valus. We haven't had a roven show up in this story hour thus far, but I thought it couldn't hurt to post the...

    Has your group played 'Ungrateful Ground'?

    Stockdale, I was wondering how I'd use the imp. Like you, I'd prefer to have him come back in follow-on adventures, but I thought something may be needed after the skeletal dragon fight to prevent an anti-climatic ending. Anyway, thanks for the input/info! D

    Sins of Our Fathers II - New Art Uploaded - 1/25

    Happy (late) New Year, everyone! Mortepierre - Glad to hear you got a copy in Europe. I know some Aussies had some difficulties finding it, as well. Hope you enjoy the read. Still finding time to game. In fact, this past weekend was our last Sins campaign session. What began back in...

    Recommendation for 3rd Level Module

    Stockdale - Do you, perhaps, mean Unfamiliar Ground? I posted a thread a couple days back asking if anyone ran that; it looks like one of the best low-level adventures I've seen since The Lost City. Interested to hear how your group did on it; I plan on using it to kick-off a new campaign...

    How Long to Hear Back about an Article Submission

    I wondered where the heck you went off to, Mr. Universe. Glad to hear you're still churning out some D&D goodiness. I've got a couple experiences with the Long Wait. Necromancer Games - Sent proposal, nothing. Sent pimp, nothing. Sent pimp #2, got the go-ahead to write a module. Different...
