Next semester, I'm going to be running a new campaign with a completely new group of players. Some of them will have more or less experience with various editions, but this is the first long-term game that I will run in 3.5. The campaign is going to be set in a homebrew world that I've been...

How about the ancient Himalayan region: Tibet, Nepal, and their interactions with cultures in India and China.

I'm buying it for sure. The campaign I'm currently running has several evil characters in it, and the subject matter is somewhat dark (a new island is discovered by Cali:):):):)e sailors, and the underground ruins hint at a lost civilization destroyed by an unspeakable evil). I also need the...

Wonder if it's available here in Cali yet. Can't wait to get that on my laptop. I'm calling my local game shop tomorrow morning to ask when they're getting it.

My schedule is open or at least informal most of the time too. The only nights I wouldn't want are Friday and Saturday (these being somewhat sacred to me). AIM is fine with me, since I use it all the time. As for my character, I'm thinking either a Sun Elf wizard or a Moon Elf druid. I enjoy...

I'd be interested in joining such a campaign. I have a few questions: What days and times will we play? Will we play on IRC or using some kind of software? What level will we start at, and what options are available (what books are allowed, etc). I usually DM, so I would love an opportunity...

A large city in a wealthy kingdom is suddenly rocked by a massive crime wave. I turns out that the city has been infiltrated by not one, but two (warring) organized crime organizations. These happen to be the Epic Level Oriental Adventures equivalent of Chinese Triads. Imagine epic-level...

A few ideas: Main gods: 5. Fertility 6. Magic 7. Agriculture/Harvest 8. Sun/Moon Demigods/heroes: 8. Nobility, royalty 9. Healing 10. Peace 11. Neutrality 12. Music and arts (like the Muses) 13. Fate In a campaign with only a few major religions, you can also have numerous saints, which is...

I started playing at age 10, back in 1995. I was in 4th grade and hadn't heard of D&D before my friend Adrian got me into it. Adrian is from the East Coast, and I think he's pretty much the one responsible for introducing D&D to the current high-school generation in San Diego...

Hmm... I guess I prefer dual-wielding, especially with exotic weapons. Asian weapons. Kamas, 'chucks, Chinese double swords, butterfly knives, tiger-head hooks... you name it, I'll dual-wield it. Fighter/Monks are the best for this. OTOH, I also love polearms. They can be really effective...

Because if WW did WoD game using the generic d20 open license, they wouldn't be able to include info for character generation or level advancement. Then anyone who wanted to play, say, Vampire d20, would have to look in the D&D PH whenever they wanted to level up their characters. Not...

I'd love to see official d20 versions of Vampire and Mage. Werewolf would be cool too I guess, but I don't like Werewolf anyway. Actually, I thought a long time ago about converting Mage to d20, but the task proved too daunting. Not that I would have been able to publish it. I hope that WW...

In response to clvrmonkey In response to clvrmonkey's post, I agree that Mage is not a game for new roleplayers. Mage is more suited to experienced roleplayers, and I definitely mean *role*players and not *roll*players. Mage is not a game for hack-n-slashers. Also, I have read and played the...

it rocks! Yeah, M:tA rocks the house. It is my favorite RPG by far. Any setting is possible, although modern/near future is most common. It tends to have a dark, gritty flavor like most all World of Darkness games. The magic system is extremely open-ended and flexible, and IMHO is the best...

I'm currently only running a 3E Forgotten Realms game. We (at least some of our group) are eagerly awaiting Call of Cthulhu d20. We've occasionally played Star Wars d20 games in the past, but I dislike SW and am the main DM/GM of the group. What I really want to run, though, is a game of...

Where to start? Make sure you read the DMG thoroughly, especially the chapters on Running the Game, Adventures, Campaigns, World-Building, etc. If you've never DMed before, you're better off running a ready-made adventure like Sunless Citadel to begin with. If you do, make sure you read the...

Cool! Once I get the full stats and background worked out for the Adult Green Dragon that's about to become a major villain in my campaign, I'll submit it to the site.

Latin? Bah! Nah, the BADD motto isn't in Latin, it's in Draconic of course. As per that one issue of Dragon magazine. Yeah, well it's one in the morning here so I'm too tired to translate it, but rest assured it's in Draconic and I'm pretty darn sure 'darastrix' is the word for dragon.

1. Complete Book of Elves from 2E. I was way disappointed when 3E made elves all... not cool anymore. It's Mialee's fault I figure. She looks more like an alien than a Hot Elf Chick. But then FRCS came out and fixed that. Still, the Complete Book of Elves is the greatest resource...

Sounds like a pretty cool concept. I'd like to see a fully fleshed-out background for this character, especially explaining why he does what he does and has that particular set of values. IMC my players use a set of worksheets that I designed to help flesh out a character's background...
