I'm reading the Chronicles of the Necromancer, by Gail Z. Martin. Pretty dang good series so far. I finished book one the other day and am now on book two, I'll have to pick up the rest of the series pretty soon! I've read a lot of fantasy and am impressed with her writing style and ability to...

That was cool of the DM to give the flat footed to the first group of enemies w/ the honey badger. We have a druid in our group that likes to summon a lot, he usually summons dogs though and they actually really helped us out in one of our major battles last session. They go kersplat pretty...

Was going to give you XP, but apparently I gave you some in a diff post. I'll have to just say that I may have to steal that character idea of using a "honey badger" for my cleric when he can summon monster III! Sounds like a lot of fun because right now he's just a bit of comic relief and the...

As a rule of thumb, we usually just either leave them behind safe and sound at an inn, or play them as an NPC if someone is missing that session. If they are being played by someone else I think it comes down to the DM "taking it easy" on that character so as to not kill it off and having the...

Last Saturday - Pathfinder (ongoing campaign I play in) Last Summer - 4E (1-30 campaign where I DM'd) Last Spring - Savage Worlds (Sundered Skies) I played in it.

I'm game! You can find me here! I don't post on it much either, but it'd be fun to have a good sized circle of gaming friends.

11. Getting Married. One of the party members decides to marry or is forced into marriage by an NPC. I had a half-elf paladin in my last campaign who completely charmed the captain of the guard who was a halfling female. She was so enamored by him that she went out of her way to speak to him...

Actually the party had gotten a deck of many things and in the deck the Rogue picked a card that gave him a "secret enemy" which included party members. The Warlord wasn't really that friendly with the rogue to begin with and I told the Warlord as an aside that the Rogue was doing things...

Didn't know that, thanks for pointing it out :)

Sure, part time counts! You were still playing!

So I'm actually quite curious to hear back from people on the forums about how long they have been with their group or groups. I know there is a lot of turnover as we get older, people move away, people move into the area, we get new people to join our groups, but I'm talking about the "core"...

Sounds like it'd be a fun campaign, though I'm a bit foggy on the set-up. It sounds like you made it all up with the "Players" dialogue included as a campaign pitch? Or did this dialogue actually happen and you didn't clarify that in your post? I think it'd be awesome if the players actually...

I'm playing PF for the first time ever as well. We started the Serpent Skulls AP when I joined a new group after moving to Las Vegas this summer. I've been playing D&D for over a decade starting with 2E through 4E and can say that I am really enjoying Pathfinder immensely. It's a lot of fun and...

Tharian cool! Thanks for the heads up about Eternal Sonata, the info about DSIII, and yes, please let me know what you and your fiancee think about War in the North. I might have to go ahead and pick up hunted, even if she won't play it with me because I think it looks fun :P

Oh I forgot I killed off a PC towards the end of my 4E campaign over the summer. I had the BBEG in the fight "Dominate" the Dwarf Warlord and make him attack the Drow Rogue in the party who was already a bit beat up, the Warlord proceeded to use all his big powers that he had been saving for the...

One word: THAC0 Just kidding, what I think about when I think D&D is medieval fantasy, the thrill of the D20 landing on the 20 when you are facing down the actual DRAGON in an actual DUNGEON and landing that killing blow before he breathes out his deadly breath weapon and obliterates the party...

In our Pathfinder Serpent Skull Module thus far: Our Wizard died - a bit of background, he dropped out of the game and we had another player running him for the last two sessions. This past session he died to a bunch of cannibals who took us all down to -hps. Four of the other members were...

A few things I'd suggest to amp up the fighter a bit w/o making him terribly OP would be to give him a spiked shield or armor that has a chance of doing a bit of damage back to the attacker and allowing him to use the shield as an offhand weapon, I know Pathfinder has rules regarding the usage...

That's cool, the only game I could ever get my wife to play with me was the PS2 LOTR: The Third Age game. We played it and beat it together like 5 times. She liked it because it was a turn-based coop and allowed her time to figure out what to do, she won't play anything else unless "it's like...

I have to add my 2 cents here as well, if your players aren't into your kind of game then you have to try to come to a compromise in a kind of game you all like to play even it it means changing genres or systems. If a compromised can't be reached, you need to find a new group of players either...
