I ran a humanocentric game for years in 1E, my campaign world has been running and evolving for quite some time now... I don't have half-orcs (I don't orcs at all, just several varieties of goblins) but I do have the "Khazan" a sorcerously-created race of terror troops similar to Saruman's...

Back in the 1e days there were the "<race> Point of View" articles that are probably worth tracking down. That said, you could probably reskin the Dragon-Blooded from Exalted as Aaismar and the Abyssals as Tieflings if you wanted, that would give you some rich lore to draw on. Similarly, it can...

My solution for this is generally to gather up a whole bunch of older (in your case) pirate movies and steal shamelessly. I'll also watch more recent things as well, but old B&W films are short and you pop them down like Tic-Tacs and many players are often less likely to have seen them. D.

I hadn't realized that 5E didn't have rules for this, but I'm surprised. I've been using the 1 page per level of the spell and it's worked out fine. D.

Agreed. Of course, I was also one of those kids devouring the Appendices in Return of the King - so we might be outliers... Rereading Tolkien reminds me of the original flavor of much of my campaign world, it's been somewhat lost over the years, but I can still see hints of it when I look. D.

I haven't read much Tolkien lately, so I picked up Children of Hurin and read that kind of in the middle of Fellowship, and I want to read Fall of Gondolin somewhere during Towers. D.

I'm re-reading The Two Towers by Tolkien since it's been a few years since I've read the whole trilogy, front to back. D.

Heya, Everyone, tell us about your games, please. 1.) How many players in your group? Currently 6 was recently 7. 2.) Do you DM? Yes. 3.) Do other people in the group DM, and how many? Two of the other players GM; one male, the other genderfluid. 4.) What's the Male/Female composition of...

Heya, Been playing RPG's for 40 years now, since I was a kid. Currently using 5e DnD, 7e Call of Cthulhu, Delta Green Cyberpunk 2020, CE Traveller, and looking forward to the new edition of Kult, maybe starting up a Witchcraft/Armageddon substitute for an old WW Mage chronicle, and they new...

Yeah, I've run CP2020 for years, and it's a pretty simple system. I'm honestly trying to remember what tables you'd be rolling on for combat other than the "Hollywood Death Tables" and pulling a blank..? D.

Fundamentally, Call of Cthulhu is my favorite because it is so versatile as an engine as well as a era's of play, etc. That said, my physical copy of the new edition of Kult just arrived over the weekend and I'm really looking forward to playing it as well. D.
