For my Dungeon Damage campaign, I developed a world story, then presented that world to the PCs and watched them go. As expected, they eventually started working their way up the chain. They even have clues as to the identity of the Big Bad, whose lieutenant X recruited Y to create the Z, who in...

I know what I want, and I think I'm good enough to provide reasons for things being that way. Those reasons will, of course, show up other logical things that should be or happen, so those go in there too. So yes, I like realism. I'm fond of the march of technology, and I'll throw that into...

Evolution is the assertion that things change. The theory of evolution proposes why they change. Current thinking is that random mutations are involved. I'll call this 'traditional' mutation. So IMC, traditional mutation certainly has its place. It produced dinosaurs, and over a long period...

Also consider the ability to Gate in crowds of previously-dominated humans. And... have you seen season 4 of Angel? That approach would be very, very applicable here. If you haven't: Two words: Animal Instincts. I seem to recall that tiger whiskers are superstitiously held to be aphrodisiac -...

I wonder if this is the right time to mention the game I'm currently playing in, where we left town to wipe out a bugbear infestation and clear out some mines - and now we're staying in a hut in the bugbear village, some of us share their meals of human flesh, and we pop down into the mines...

Who? See? (I'm not a pav man myself, but it's an obscure point of national pride, so I guess it appeals more to a geek like me...) And yet the explosive celebration continues. Like I said... an interesting moral.

Why, yes. Yes I am. I don't even follow rubgy. You may now pelt me with the patriotic pavlova. ;) For those not in the know: Australia and New Zealand Army Corps. I believe (but am not willing to expose myself to public ridicule by asserting its correctness) that this was the date of the...

Although I'm sure we're all familiar with Chinese New Year... and I've heard that, due to calendar shifts, New Year's Eve was originally October 31st, and all manner of spirits and nasties came out in the gap between years. Which explains a lot. Guy Fawkes is an interesting holiday, in which...

Not gonna do it. Can't choose three. My brain has a 'good' setting, but apparently not a 'best' setting. (And I don't think I have a strenuous 'bad' setting either.) ... awfully short for a stormtrooper, aren't you? (I'm so very sorry...)

This is so against the spirit of the thread, but... "Well, I'm on full hp even after the ghoul fight, and whatever's in there has the dwarf. So I'll activate my ki frenzy and open the door." The rest, as they say, is wall art. Fortunately we had a druid bringing the noise, or we might all be...

Dungeon Damage magic: There are seven important planes of existance. There is the World, at the center. Around it, like the points of a compass, are the four Cardinal Elemental planes (Earth, Air, Fire and Water). Above it is the plane of positive energy; below, the plane of negative energy...

I looked at it every few days, but I didn't have anything to contribute to it. I guess the 'Fantasy & Sci-fi Books, Movies and TV' forum is more... open. Perhaps that's all that's needed.

'Other'. My Twilight world is theorised to be a variant of the Dyson Sphere. By disassembling the entire solar system, including the sun, and building additional spheres in hyperspace 'beside' the core, and then stocking the lot with comparatively tiny, localised suns and floating continents to...

I came in with this particular basic: Did a very good job of introducing the rules to unconnected newbies such as myself. I started playing again with 3.0, many moons later, but Basic was my gateway to the wonderful world of regulated imagination.

Thanks! Keep an eye on it; eventually, stupid player deeds I'm not disclosing here will show up... chapter 5 in particular.

I think you mean Londo. Otherwise you get Billy Dee Williams with a Centauri frill. Think about that for a moment. Agreed on Garak, though - he'd make an excellent guest at a party to my mind, because anyone who knows him will be unwilling to look away from him, and he'll be witty, engaging...

A co-player in our current In Nomine GURPS game... well, we'd just had a shootout with demons in the street, causing public panic, and the Russian police showed up en masse. We all showed our documentation for our various weapons... ... except Volkov, a Malakim (warrior angel) whose first...

Have we lost our way? Or have many of the followers of the pioneers said, "Hey, look over there, that valley looks kinda nice, why don't we go over there instead of going to the valley the pioneers went to"? Personally, I like the nature of the recent, quicker-round rules; I think "I hit him...

Chick's site contents disturb me. On the other hand, it is true that a very few mentally unstable people shouldn't be exposed to D&D (or after-school television, for that matter) because there are elements involved that could damage a fragile psyche. And as a Christian, I always seem to have a...

I haven't got much overt manga-style work on there, but my webcomic (and assorted subpages) should demonstrate my ability and experimental inclination. I'd be very interested in such a project, and the possible research involved (I don't know what visual styles you'd be looking for exactly, but...
