    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour (Updated 29 Jan 2014)

    That, and a good portion of the humor (gallows or nay) doesn't really translate during the story hour. (And some of it we couldn't post up anyway)

    Prisoner interrogation methods

    Honestly, if we wanted information that was reliable and had the time you use the standard techniques that actually work. -Hunger (just enough food to survive, not enought to be clear headed) -Disorientation (Confuse them, establish patterns and break them) -Roles (Friend [help/heal/don't lie...

    NC Game Day XI: September 23! (Player Registration Now Open)

    I would rock some Equilibrum Henry, so I am looking foward to it.

    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour (Updated 29 Jan 2014)

    Bits that wouldn't quite work in the story hour. Toras: "Get F...,You reject from a KFC franchise." And the debate about the pro's and cons of Demilich soccer.

    Suspension of Disbelief stretched to the breaking point in the World of Darkness

    The sad thing is that I would have very littel problem with such a thing existing in Mage. It has plently of president for rooms much larger inside, mazes on uncommon size, and forcing mortals to quest for knowledge. With Vampire, it becomes idiocy. Only thing I can think of is that you are...

    Demon Lords and Princes: How *Bad* Should They Be?

    Even if you freeze your character's level at 20, I would not characterize assaulting a Demon Lord within his realm (where his entourage will primarily exist) as a 'reasonable challenge'. It should be an awe inspiring task, the likes of which would shatter a lesser person to attempt. An awesome...

    Why the assumption that epic levels are purely optional?

    I will admit that I do not agree with everything in the epic rules as it was written. We largely bipassed this by simply having people buy the expanded spell compacity feats (gaining access to 10th, 11th, and on spells, and simply designing spells to fit that point) Taking that and Union...

    Why the assumption that epic levels are purely optional?

    Really? To some extent, I've found that combat speed up with high level to epic exchanges, and with some care and preperation we can run through combats relatively quickly. Also, if you have been taking a character through epic, you get to know his numbers quickly.

    Tactical D&D, macro to micro. How do you handle it?

    Though not a huge fan of mini's (they don't really work well when we are dealing with free ranging three space aka combat in a transitive plan, nor if we can pass freely through stone and earth). I can apperciate the desire to have tactical combats. My suggestion for making the Rogue useful...

    Nuclear weapons of D&D Rules

    Used Grapple twice playing the fighter [DM had to come up with Strength Check Mechanic to deal with the idea of using a pin to shatter a casters wrists. (had 2 size classes and +15 strength on him)] Sunder was used as a monk (fighting unarmed, kicking a sword down to the nub) Turning is used...

    Is Jack Bauer LG?

    I honestly think that Jack started as LN (Duty) PreSeason1 -> LG (Family) in Season 1 (As he didn't really torture anyone physically then) He fell to LN with the Death of his wife, and to TN as the System continued to fail him. He pretty much remains there for the rest of time (only seen...

    Is Jack Bauer LG?

    I would peg Jack as NG with a tendency to slide TN when under extreme stress. He does have a tendency to use torture when in reality other techniques would be more effective. But then again this is movie logic. Assuming that his techniques work in the world he lives in (despite their proven...

    Favorite combat tactics? (2nd attempt)

    Boots of Spider Climb or in later levels fly. Using a wall other than the ground as your walking surface will keep you out of the way of alot of traps. Decanters of Endless Water: 1)Propelling Boats (via pressure) 2)Several reversing desertification. 3)Emptying Undergrounds (First Seal all...

    NC Game Day IX - January 21 (PRE-REG NOW OPEN)

    Looks like I'll be reprising Sir Head Explodedy for Planescape and kicking it Joe style this time. I will be bringing my feng shui book and the random stuff to hit people with book. Dibs on the Snake Eyes esque character.

    Shemmy's Planescape Storyhour #2 (Updated x3 10-17-07)

    Some times you get the Bodack, Some times the Bodack gets you. Victor's God is quite literally the Sun. (Female Personification, Goddess/Mother of Elves) Garebaldi is beholden to the Moon (Male Personification, God/Father of Humans) They rule over the Heavens, and their people's rule over the...

    Explain Canada

    I would not agree that only Toronto is respected, as there is a major university in the capital city of each province and many of them are quite respected. As for avoiding Edmonton in the winter, what kind of Canadian are you? -30 C is the perfect weather in the winter. And if you are...

    Shemmy's Planescape Storyhour #2 (Updated x3 10-17-07)

    She sticks him for a second, if Victor makes a issue of it, next time she'll hide it and she could kill him. And he is gradually going to try to reform them all, but that's another issue. The other missed it entirely.
