    Winter Ceramic DM™: THE WINNER!

    So PC, maybe now you know how we all feel when you haven't updated your storyhour as soon as you thought you would have. *ahem* ;) Mythago's been putting in long hours at her new job, and we're in California, so I suspect you've got to wait a bit more.

    Real-life Prestige Class undertaken

    Yup. With a husband, three kids, a cat, and a hampster even. She's also a pretty wicked MMORPG player, and can disassemble a Unix box blindfolded.

    Real-life Prestige Class undertaken

    This happened to Mythago quite a while ago, actually. It makes her a really wicked Call of Cthulhu GM. :-/.......

    Has ENWorld been mentioned in any physically published material?

    We've been mentioned in Knights of the Dinner Table several times, too -- both in the letters columns and in their reviews of online resources.

    Ceramic DM autumn '03(final judegment: new ceramic dm champ!)

    It's fun to watch sweet, innocent Sialia break tough-as-nails, seen-and-done-it-all Mythago every so often. ;) Can't wait to see how this contest comes out!!!

    Need help with my rogue's feats

    As a rogue, you need to go first. I played a 3rd-ed. melee-based rogue for almost 2 years, and I never found this to be true. If you go the melee route, then anything that enhances flanking is the way to go.

    Sagiro's Story Hour Returns (new thread started on 5/18/08)

    OK, enough with this marriage/honneymoon stuff. Is it update time yet? We miss Abernathy's Company!

    B5: The Long, Dark Night Of Achilles

    Actually, the ship is probably designed with this in mind. The RPG Jovian Chronicles by Dream Pod 9 is filled with ships of a similar technology level. What we might think of as "walls" when looking at the profile of a ship are actually "floors." Spaceships like the Hyperion class are a lot like...

    B5: The Long, Dark Night Of Achilles

    Wow. Very nice! Had a good Bab5 feel, as well as a good hard-sf feel, which IMO are the two components that would make a game like this great. I really like the sound of your planned story arcs. A few thoughts: Hyperion cruiser -- wow, no gravity (except when thrusting, which will...

    [OT] I finally got a new job!

    Congratulations! *grumble* But I see you live in New Mexico. I'm in Silicon Valley, where I've been unemployed for 17 months. And I know people who've been unemployed for longer. We have something like a 12.5% unemployment rate around here. This economy sucks! Consider yourself lucky, Mr...

    Because, you know, we all want to be as lucky as Arthas! :)

    [3.5] Did they lower the Dragon CRs?

    Not necissarily a TPK. At the higher levels, there are plenty of critters other than dragons that could slaughter a party, or that a party could wipe out in less than a round. High level play is just like that. The dragon CRs in the 3.0 MM were artificially low. The design staff justified this...

    Warcraft RPG - Anyone Have It?

    It's due at my FLGS tomorrow. I await it with eager anticipation! While searching the web today for comments from people who may already own it, I discovered that the game's website has gone live! http://www.warcraftrpg.com/

    Any news on B5 yet?

    The Bab5 books are organized by season, and the main rulebook only covers Season 1. As Morden doesn't have much of a role in the first season he has a couple of paragraphs of description, but no stats. I suspect he'll get statted out in the Season 2 book.

    Dragonlance Already on E-Bay?!

    Yeah, but he's Eric. He started this place, and put his heart and soul into it for years, and still works hard around here. I don't begrudge him free product. I think he deserves it. Morrus too, for that matter. :) I rather think that Eric and Morrus have done as much for selling WotC and D20...

    [CotSQ] How did you handle the Chasm? [SPOILERS]

    May I suggest you change the title of this thread? As it stands now, everyone who sees this thread knows there's a chasm they'll have to overcome. The very title is a (admittedly minor) spoiler.

    Why is there a Bodak?

    IMO (and I've DM'd these things) bodaks are just PC killers, with little other use as a monster. They are a low challenge rating, so lower-level parties can supposedly take these things on. But if you run the math, at least one character in a 4 to 6 person party is going to die before the fight...

    Sagiro's Story Hour Returns (new thread started on 5/18/08)

    We've got a couple of characters in our games that are immune to fire damage, and they also occasionally volunteer to have Fireballs and Flame Strikes dropped on their heads. We usually remind them that there's one very bad consequence even to immune characters: they could roll a 1, and if they...

    To RoytheOdd, here's a thread for questions and answers

    Thanks, ShadowStar, for stepping up in Roy's absence! 24) With Haste now nerfed, has the Quicken metamagic feat changed at all? In other words, how many spell levels does Quickening a spell add? Edited for spelling!
