    Timetravel for characters....

    Tangential and brief, but I always toyed with the idea of the players, looking for magical aid to help their kingdom on the brink of war, hending into Beyong the Crystal Cave and coming out several years/decades later, when the war was lost and the kingdom destroyed - they then end up going...

    Demonomicon issues?

    Like a billion and four things in our beloved hobby, this really only becomes a problem with dodgy GMs/players ... Thinking about it, I do like the idea of the players finally getting a crack at Iggwilv at high levels and after a long campaign where she was the primary villain - after all, Star...

    Demonomicon issues?

    Ok, so, as BOZ mentioned, statting gods and super powerful beings is a grand tradition of D&D, not something new to 3.5 or D20 ... *but* in my head I have this idea of Iggwilv (and of Iuz, Vecna, Grazz't &c) which is pulled together from so many different sources as to almost create a...

    Demonomicon issues?

    In a way it's kind of sad that 3.5 D&D kinda requires characters like Iggwilv to be statted ...

    Examples of sundering eyestalks from MM (1-3)?

    Hi all; I'm just stating up a giant hermit crab and wanted players to be able to make "called shot" style sunder attacks against its eye-stalks; are their any precedents for this in any of the published Monster Manuals or creature books? If so a page ref would be grand - if not, how about some...

    Most mispronounced monster names

    Actually I've encountered a couple of Kobold pronunciations - Koh-bald and Cob-old. I believe Gary (or it might have been Roger Moore) said Sahuagin rhymes with "ah, you again". -M-

    Ever played the intro to DnD game at Wizards?

    One of my players, a girl who'd never roleplayed before, saw that before our first session. I pleeded with her that my games were nothing like that, and she came along anyway. About half way though the first sesson, she announced to the group "this is much better than that flash animation - you...

    Game session on film?

    Has nobody here seen www.rpgmp3.com? Not the best roleplaying in the worldever, but it has spirit and whole lot of charm when you get into it....

    Has anybody seen Dungeon #124 at their FLGS yet?

    It's hidden beneath some back issues down stairs, but Playin Games in Central London has some for all you UK-bound ENworlders. M

    Some questions about using miniatures in game...

    What I really mean is, do you think it'll be instrumental in making them enjoy the experience and want to play again (assuming the GMing is good, which it will be :uhoh: )?

    Some questions about using miniatures in game...

    Hi all; I'm about to start a new 3.5 campaign (set in Greyhawk) with a bunch of players new to the hobby (one player has played D&D and a few other games a few times) - a couple of the players have some experience with Warhammer and related games (Advanced Heroquest, that kind of thing) and...

    That is so incredibly cool. Make sure the march of teenagerdom doesn't steal this from her.

    Would your group stop a woman from joining?

    There are trolls in JadeClaw? For the record, 6 in group inc. GM (me), 3 girls.

    I'm a murderer

    You clearly need to frame a NPC you hate for the murder. Read some Vance if you haven't already, and go with "what would Cujel do" as your maxim. Off course, if you follow this maxim to the letter, everything will go to (bad word) - but it will be highly amusing (bad word) ;) M

    Judging Levels and EL etc...

    Hi all; Having looked over several of the old modules I have and the conversions (that used to be) available here at ENWorld, all of them tend to do "straight" conversions of the material, regardless of the level of the module or any changes in the toughness of the creatures; this means that a...
