The book works well for coming up with unusual little details. It is also good for sparking ideas. Tormenet

Darklone and Nifft, Not finished yet, in part that is why I posted it. I find that EN Worlder commentary on my drafts is like gold. Why be creative when I can let other people do the thinking? The goal is ECL 0, but I think the Extraordinary Abilities do better to reflect a cat's (leopard or...

I'd check the stats in the animal section of the monster manual and see what they did as a start. Also, see http://www.theothergamecompany.com/stuff-misc.htm and scroll down to the Racial Modifiers Table Preview, you might just morph some of the stats there to your races. Tormenet

I’m working on a catfolk race (Fellene) and these are their racial traits as they stand. I wanted to create a race without the usual ability modifiers. I scanned the felines in the Monster Manual and pulled the Sprint and Pounce extraordinary abilities. The Miniatures book Catfolk were the...

Too true. I've never met a fantasy calendar I could keep up with. I use the Gregorian calendar, but change the month names. My months get really simple labels, based on the season: Winter's Onset, Winter's Heart, Winter's Decline. Then the same cycle for Spring and so on. I feel it gives...

Organizing: Anybody know how to set up a wiki? It's a brilliant organizing tool. I'd volunteer the player that set up ours but his family just had an addition. (Baby number two= end to any thoughts that you can still have a life, Old One.) For the unititiated: A tiki is essentially a web...

See Old One's story hour. It's his own creation but Emor spelled backwards is.... Tormenet

(1) I am willing to DM/GM a 3.5 D&D session. I have just the thing….. (2) I have no preference about when I play. (3) I am willing to help organize/schedule/coordinate the game day. (4) I think the best location for such an event is close to where I-95 meets the DC beltway in Maryland...

Rowan? You mean the guy who was hitting on my sister and then started drooling over Drusila? He probably wants to invite in his gnoll buddys. One hyena-head in the neighborhood and real estate prices will plunge. Quintus

What?!?! Someone's trying to muscle in on my action. Why the dirty....

Player surveys. Every five sessions or so I send out a very short survey to my players. It asks about their characters goals and also about their feelings about the campaign- what sucks and what they like. I tell them to be very honest. I make sure I turn off my ego when I read their...

Ahh..relief. I read this thread just waiting for my player's to post some of their unsatisfactory passings. My first 3.0 PC, a teenaged halfling thief, was killed by a dire rat. The party was crossing a pit when the attack came. The party fighter fell into the pit so the party ranger went...

I'm trying!! Last month I was set for a grand return and Old One had to cancel the session. This month Old One scheduled the game on my older daughter's birthday. I'm trying again for June. Corey

Do it. Follow this link for some ideas: http://www.archaeology.org/0403/abstracts/sands.html It's an interesting article on a unique north African kingdom coming into contact with Rome. It even provides you with ideas on population and such. My home brew is based on Greek-Bactria (a...

Folkert, Many thanks! It is not what I had originally but it is very useful. Tormenet

My hard drive was recently wiped. I’d really appreciate help locating downloadable copies of these two- really, incredibly useful- programs: *an Excel program that generated NPC personalities. It generated traits for: speech, hair, facial features, a main personality trait , a minor...

Doug, Looking forward to it. I found your web site a while back and read it with great interest. I was bummed when I went back to get a bunch of stuff and found you had removed it all. (Congrats on the publishing deal.) Still can't pronounce it, though. Tormenet

Cordo: I'm reading every bit of it. :D My thought was to ask the question and sit back and listen to the response. However, you do point out that I'm being a little (if unintentionally) impolite. Thanks to everyone for the answers. I tend to limit my reading to non-fiction, but I plan to...
