I'll third that, with a side question: How the heck did players get into that position in the first place, where a possible consequence would be a nuclear explosion????? :\

Hahaha...nice! Alas it's not an allusion to Gen Con, but it IS a good-natured takeoff on something from TSR. Just not sayin' what...kind of obscure, and may simply be my own perspective! ;)

;) Bwahaha...couldn't resist! :lol:

Harrow Hot Hall of High Heat Place this hallway as any sort of connection between two encounters. Read the words in quotes to the players. Don't read the words out of quotes to the players. Don't let the players see this module. Don't let the players see your bank card password or your social...

Yeah I like it too!

This post is arguably the most disturbing thing I've read this weekend. :eek:

If you REALLY want to scare the crap out of your gamers, and you happen to be a guy, do the following: Dress up as Doctor Frank-N-Furter from Rocky Horror Picture show. Give 'em a rendition of "Sweet Transvestite", and hint that you'll alter a few die rolls if they're "nice" to you. That'll...

Room 47: Time to Re-Equip! Read to the players: "You enter a brightly lit room that's 500' x 500'. At the door you are met by a zombie that used to be an elderly peasant. The zombie wears a blue vest, and, slack-jawed, pushes a cart towards you and goes 'mmm-BUH!' as you reach for the cart...

Why do I still game, after all these years (started in 1978)? Hmmm... good question. 1. It's a good outlet for my imagination, but in a way that has no pressure (e.g. no deadlines, no editors). 2. I enjoy talking. As a DM, talking is mandatory. 3. I love telling stories. Gaming helps. 4. It...

I always thought it was DWEE-mur :o

Thank you for the kind words, Ozmar. And I too am a parent, so that's indeed where I get some of my tactics for dealing with adults ;)

34. Dread Chamber of Ewscray Ethay Ayersplay Read the following description allowed to the players. DMs are well-warned in advance that they should know the shortest route out of the playing area, and be wearing sneakers or track shoes. “You see a massive stone/iron/mithril/adamantium/titanium...

Indeed...the brigand shouldn't give out false info...that's illegal.

I for one don't consider it odd to create on the fly. In some cases, it's a necessity, particularly if the players aren't forbidden from venturing "off the game board". In my current campaign, I had designed an ancestral keep which the characters would need to explore. In the deepest undercellar...

Well spotted, Biggus! :D

Room 31: Latrine of Doom (subtitled: "Oh, crap!") Read to players: "Your adventuring party enters this 3' x 3' room. The smelly odors forcibly remind you of the potty at Big Al's Discount Ale House and Shoe Repair. No, really. Even if you were thinking of something grand and sweeping and...

And let's not forget the gross disparity in male-female ratio, and the fact that the only female ran around in a white slip and white high heels. But, to touch upon SBMC's post, consider the following salient points: Oxygen deprivation makes one turn blue. Smurfs are blue. Shadowslayer touched...

As a matter of fact, I do. :) In our Forgotten Realms campaign, I have Desi Diamonduster, gnome paladin of Garl Glittergold, and his six companions. They all ride large dogs, and the group calls themselves The Dogriders (wow...that's a stretch, huh?). At some point, Desi invariably encounters...

Nope, it's no more ludicrous nor ridiculous. That's why when I start off a new campaign, I tell people "Choose whatever character class you want, provided it's one that's approved in the campaign (translation: just about any), and you all will have to adventure/work with whatever mix you get. ;)

Amen to that. My wife has played a female gnome bard (Isabella Leatherlungs Dragonbooger Knucklebone), and has been EXTREMELY effective and valuable to the party. That bardic knowledge comes in handy for figuring out what some magical items are, the inspirational singing has on more than one...
