I can't speak to d20 Modern - Urban Fantasy, as I haven't played or GM'd it. I *can* speak to d20 Future (the D20M variant you'd be using). :rant::mad:RUN AWAY! It isn't often that I'll say anything like this, but d20 Future *fails* at replicating *any* of the popular sci-fi novels, tv...

Time passes... a new campaign (Bob-less) is started. You run into Bob and wife on the street, he asks how the game's going. Your answer "Pretty well; I'm afraid we don't have any slots open, though." If you're put into a situation where Bob overhears you inviting a new player: "I'm sorry Bob...

Here's the portion dealing with the Thayan Exile in Waterdeep: The wizard in Waterdeep is known as the Wizard of the Red-Feathered Hood. He makes his living as an information broker and investigator. He also has the reputation of being extremely ... cautious ... *cough*paranoid*cough* in...

grogg: yep Also: quintessential Bruce Campbell movie, ED3

Speaking as someone who's run 8 (now down to 6)... 1) To achieve the feel of any give "challenge" level in the DMG, use the value for the next level up. 2) Ignore the CR "synergy bonus" when building encounters. Just use the straight XP values. (And yes, those bits of advice stack.) 3) Bump...

Jotunmoot Here's the Jotunmoot, extracted from my FG module. If you spot any problems or mistakes, let me know.

I had to resort to Google. 1) I'd never seen that video (heard the song, of course) 2) I always forget he wrote that book. Not mice. Here's the hint: English Rabbits.

I knew that would give it away. And the other was/is, indeed, EfNY. Your latest is throwing me. I'm sure its in the horror genre, but the setup doesn't feel right. Next one: A village leader and his prophet brother approach the party; they've been chased from their homes (and their village...

Now it clicked. Dumas! The Three Musketeers! Why? You get to kill the bloody things in the adventure. Is this not good? ;) For the current one: The bodies all have circular marks (about the size of a gold piece) on all their bare skin. New one: The princess has been kidnapped! The villains...

Edit: double post. Please remove.

Nope. Though it'd fit, I suppose. (Ditto for Nausica of the Winds as well). But neither were what I thinking of. Admittedly, I took a few liberties and flipped the protagonist and antagonist roles to make it a player-character-friendly adventure. Here's a hint: The druid alchemist has a tabby...

Matrix. A druid/wizard alchemist approaches the party with a problem. He thinks he's managed to locate the source of the taint that's been ... changing... the forest animals. Unhappily, some unusually small (diminutive) fey have built their village in the same location. The fey however, are...

Since I had my players coming in from the north (Lost Mines to HotDQ), I revised the entire Greenest(Greenrest?) to Castle Naerytar (i.e. Ep. 4) trek. In the revision, the Waterdeep/Neverwinter road is in *much* worse repair, requiring the caravans (in both directions) to travel with road crew...

Easy spots to insert her in HotDQ: Castle Naerytar (reporting the debacle to Rezmir), the Hunting Lodge (seeking support from one of Rezmir's rivals, i.e. Talis), the town next to Skyreach (buffing the Cult's presence). Spots in Rise of Tiamat: Death in the Council (supporting cast...

I suspect they'll notice. I suspect they also won't care. The primary reason they're in those cities is access to research materials. So I might move Neverwinter's to Luskan. Right now, I'm planning on just having it be a seduced/blackmailed secretary, not any of the actual council members...

Already abusing the h*** out of that for other hooks, including most of the established quests. The only "urban" quests in the published material are The Tower, and Mission to Thay, and both of those are a stretch. The "Death at the Council" subquest would certainly qualify, but isn't detailed...

:erm: Well, as soon as I have it written, yeah. Those sentences were in the present tense for a reason. :blush: What I can tell you right now is that the Thayan portion keeps a large portion of the "tour of the Realms", but tightens the focus to the Sword Coast. For instance, one of the Thayan...

I agree, frankly if it wasn't for the implied "tour-the-Realms" objective, going to Thay doesn't make a whole lot of sense. I'm solving this by swapping out the Thay support for Arcane Brotherhood, and then replacing Ep. 8 (Mission to Thay) with two other missions - one where the players visit a...

If they crash it, yep, TPK. Of course, "crash it" in this means "The Castle fell straight down from its cruising height." Said cruising height is well over 200 feet up (apparently, the average cloud deck sits ~2000 feet above ground level). Of course, that's not the scenario the adventure gives...
