    What do you think when DM introduces old PC as an NPC?

    I HAVE used one of my PCs as an NPC...but in a very limited way. One of my favorite characters is a Bard named Mendrill. I created him when I played AD&D, and had to go through all that Fighter, then Thief, then Bard BS. When I imported him into the Realms, I was no longer actually playing him...

    Commoners - thorns in arrogant PC's sides

    I simply use logic... OK, so you have this crappy little insignificant town, East Bumspank....just a collection of farmers, shepherds and miners. A bunch of 1st level commoners. Enter the swaggering pack of arrogant PCs, who look around and notice this, and think to themselves "Hah...we can...

    Very cool, Cam! In a previous incarnation of our group, we DID have someone else who ran a parallel game, essentially in a different area of the Forgotten Realms than where I had mine. Some trouble started when it became obvious that his game was a bit...well...dull (the campaign was called...

    19 year old dies after being shot by catapult

    I know that death is a terrible thing, and I'm certainly feeling bad for the bozo's loved ones left behind, but...I find this story disturbingly funny. Am I rotten?

    Most ludicrous gaming rumors?

    Former TSR Boss-Lady Lorraine Williams apparently still has some legal power over the D&D brand, and is invoking a little-known contractual clause that forces WotC to produce Buck Rogers d20 in time for GenCon 2006.

    Gamer Significant Others

    Our gaming group breaks down like this: I run the game. My wife is one of the players. There's two other married couples, both couples play. Three single guys. And my three kids, ages 18-12. So basically, half our group is composed of married people, three couples to be exact. Pretty cool, IMO!

    Let's put it this way. I actually dated one of my early gamers. For her birthday, I took her to Boston Garden to see Billy Joel. This was back in the days before ol'Billy began to suck, but that's a different topic for a different time. Well, the concert went great, and as we were leaving the...

    Hey I can't knock online dating either....During the time between my first marriage and now, I met a lot of women thru online. Some turned out to be absolutely terrific...others turned out to be soul-shattering (bleep)-ups of Lovecraftian proportions. It's a crap shoot, with the emphasis...
