    The Magic-Walmart myth

    Planescape has always been a magic intensive setting, and given that the wheel exists in many settings that can be a starting point for many of the magical items that filter their way onto the prime. In the case of Sigil itself, magical items are easy to come by if you have the cash or the...

    Enworld Short Story Smackdown (aka Ceramic DM) - sign-up thread

    I would like to participate. If nothing else, it will be a learning experience. (Writing that is, I could not judge another for something like this)

    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour (Updated 29 Jan 2014)

    I think at 8 we would be just passed our tally for the first game. (Toras polishes his fighter ace-esque killer marks) And let's just say you'll be suprised who some of them are.

    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour (Updated 29 Jan 2014)

    Still doesn't match the body count of the first game. (though I think if we are implicated in 2 more we get the Grizit merit badge)

    Sadly I have already committed but best of luck to him. Still have plenty of slots left for my Sunday Night Godlike game.

    [Planescape] Questions about Sigil

    That would be something of the case, though I suspect a Rilmani would push you off before it really became an issue. And trying to go off the other way is bad for you, so presumably it would be ill advised. Aoskar attempted to enter Sigil, and for that among other things, the Lady slew him and...

    Indeed, it does tend towards the dark. (Though a good deal of the humor doesn't make it to the story hour, for reasons of tone, context, or slightly ooc nature. That does tend to add a bit of light to the darkness)

    Andy Collins: "Most Magic Items in D&D Are Awful"

    As a player in a planescape game, I find that I generally have access to a great deal of magical craftsmenship. While I have picked up the traditional ones, more often than not, there is a tendency to get custom work done. Cloak of Resistance? How about a Cloak of the Bulwark (Resist, Con...

    NC Game Day XIII (April 21-22): aka "Mini-GenCon"

    I believe I will be running Godlike, if only for a chance to expose people to a new system and give me an excuse to buy Wild Talents. Godlike: D-Day Minus One In preparation for Operation: OVERLORD, the Allies prepare for the largest landing the world has every seen. That will be tomorrow...

    Funniest DM/player faux pas

    Yugoloth Archfiend is monologing, going on about the quality of evil and how he's going to win. "So what is it you wish, what do you desire" My response, being mildly creeped our and damned if I was going to show it. "Are you hitting on me?"

    Kill the gods, your experience

    Depending on how the pantheon handles things, God's can be within the realm of mortal threat or otherwise. Some of the God's in Chinese Myth were simply mortal who ascended and similar such things can happen. It comes down to sphere of influence, one world and one concept will be far weaker...

    1) Any archfiend worth their salt has attunement effects, and even if we did take her there it would be the same as smashing her save slightly slower. 2) Ransom assumes both affection and the ability to do business with anyone of similar or even less ranking stature. 3) Would be effective say...

    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour (Updated 29 Jan 2014)

    Ahh. The Wack-a-Loth moment. We had a few options. 1) Throw her into the blades in the God Corpse of Aoskar 2) Stone Shape her into something fitting, and hand her over to the Rilmani 3) Bring her to Sigil and throw her over the side (dangerous) 4) Hand her over to Apomps (amusing)

    NC Game Day XII: January 20th - BE THERE!

    I would so be down for a Return to the Order of the Stick (or Ice Giant smashing, so much fun and so little time) I will also offer to run something in the PM. 1) Feng Shui - "Help I'm trapped in a HK action movie" Five normal people receive a mysterious video in the mail. Upon watching the...
