    Exclusive Contest! Todd Lockwood draws your character! [NO MORE ENTRIES!]

    OK, I finally have my characters ready to post. Please excuse some of the repetition in background (it's unavoidable for married adventurers who were childhood sweethearts...). Here's the first one...the first character I ever created and who I have played for the past three years. Zorra...

    [OT] My aching neck...

    There's also the possibility that you have a vertebra or two out of place, which would make a chiropractor your savior of healing. The crunch of bones being realigned is mighty freakish the first time you hear it, but it really works. I'm not a doctor either, but I do have a bad back from a...

    [YA BoEF thread] Usefulness of BoEF in your campaign?

    I think you're finding things in the post in question that aren't there, due to things that poster may have said in other threads. (I haven't been here long and haven't read everything, so I don't know for sure.) I saw nothing sexist in that post. While experiencing mood swings and other...

    [YA BoEF thread] Usefulness of BoEF in your campaign?

    Before everyone gathers to burn Angcuru at the stake for saying this - he has a good point! When my wizard was pregnant she had serious mood swings during the first few months, and we made good use of the b*tch rule (though we modified it a bit). On days Zorra was in a foul hell-hath-no-fury...

    Getting new people into the role playing hobby

    Very well said! We live in a small town as well (though it's a city compared to my hometown, but that's a different story) and it would be nice if RPGA or somebody would lend a helping hand. As far as I know we are the only gaming group in town, unless there are some at the 2-year college, and...

    [OT] Now this is amazing... I'm honestly stunned.

    Both Tsyr and Azlan are referring to John Thompson of Hurdsfield, ND. Hurdsfield is about 50 miles from my hometown. I don't know John personally, but he is doing quite well and has made a lot of progress. I do know he's regained enough use of his arms and hands to write again, as I've seen...

    What is the most damage you've ever seen a character do in one round?

    In the one-shot epic-level game I refer to in the "How much damage have you seen a character take in one round" thread, my husband played a 25th level ranger/sorcerer/Arcane Archer. I can't remember the specifics, but he had a +5 bow and +5 arrows. Plus he had picked a bunch of archer specific...

    What is the most damage you have ever seen a character take in one round

    In a one-shot epic-level game with a bunch of my husband's friends, the party was teleported by a good elven lich (the name for that escapes me at the moment) to a massive cavern just plumb full of demons, devils, and an avatar of Lloth. Thanks, Mr. Lich. My 25th level Cleric/Fighter/Doomguide...

    Crossgen RPG by Fast Forward Games?

    ***wincing*** Fast Forward is also the company producing R. A. Salvatore's Demon Wars RPG. I'm also a CrossGen fan (though I'm woefully behind on reading and buying right now) so I hope both projects turn out well. I've never yet picked up a Fast Forward game product myself so I can't judge...

    Erotic publications for RPGs

    Approve, female, married, no children. I play in mature campaigns that have benefitted greatly from the GUCK as characters have matured, fallen in love, married, had children, etc. But there have still been things that the DM just has to make up. I look forward to the great possibilities of...

    [BoVD, BoEF, Vile] Where do you say "unacceptable?"

    hunter1828 (my husband) covered most of the details of what's acceptable in our campaign, so I'll just touch on a couple of things: NUDITY IN MY GAMES: One particularly fun moment from our campaign - during a huge battle a wizard threw a Fireball, centered on one of our thieves (we were still...

    Gaming music

    Behold, my first post. :) Our DM uses the Conan and LotR soundtracks. He also plays the soundtracks from the Baldur's Gate and Icewind Dale computer games. The disc that gets the most play, though, is the "soundtrack" for our adventuring company that he made, with themes for each character...
