    ZEITGEIST Zeitvice: one GM's guide to the best AP

    I try to abstain from criticizing Zeitvice, because it represents an enormous effort on the side of arkwright. I actually hope that his pedantry can be an advantage regarding upcoming ZG setting book. ZG is truly gigantic in scope, both narratively and in terms of worldbuilding; it's inevitable...

    ZEITGEIST Want to be notified when the Adventures In ZEITGEIST Kickstarter launches?

    Thank you for the response, as I said, I'm blind :D ...goddamn, no HC delivery to Russia. I'll have to think about postal forwarders...

    ZEITGEIST Want to be notified when the Adventures In ZEITGEIST Kickstarter launches?

    Well, let me split it into separate questions then. If I contribute to the current "Level Up" kickstarter (at Marshal tier or with "Adventures in ZG" add-on), will I receive PDF only, as stated in pledge description? Is there a way to get hardcover version of "Adventures in ZG" in the current...

    ZEITGEIST Want to be notified when the Adventures In ZEITGEIST Kickstarter launches?

    Necromancy ahoy! Soooo. "Adventures in ZG" are listed as an add on in currently running "Level Up" kickstarter. Notably, description states that "Adventures in ZEITGEIST is a hardcover campaign setting for Level Up: Advanced 5th Edition" but pledge description only lists it as PDF. What's the...

    ZEITGEIST ZEITGEIST in legacy character builder

    Did you add anything past level 2? The e-mail I had from you only had two files, Level1/Level2. Missed this message :( I'll send you a PM in case this is still relevant.

    ZEITGEIST Detonating the Coaltongue's powder magazines?

    Honestly... Sokana is not an evil terrorist mastermind. She is not even an evil overlord's minion. She is a handmaiden to Risuri diplomatic civil servant (who possibly was a pirate in pre-third war Risur, but that was long ago), who genuinely believe in the signs of bad future to come and came...

    ZEITGEIST How did the demonocracy begin?

    Side note: "demonocracy" was named by Crissillyiri. I'm pretty sure the definition of "demons" in Triegenis books was "anything powerful which is not a god (by our standards)". I find it easy to believe that some ortodox priests still believe Risur to be a living remnant of demonocracy - a whole...

    ZEITGEIST ZEITGEIST Returns with Ryan Nock's 'Death of the Author' for D&D 5E

    I've played this pre-release with a group of players not finishing the base AP (still in limbo of adventure 8). We made it do with "SOMETHING BIG happened 20 years ago, and the world is still reeling" and no further spoilers. The required context for the DotA in general is a) philosophy-inclined...

    ZEITGEIST RHC badge

    I have the following RHC badge design saved in my Gdrive. I'm pretty sure that it was taken from these forums, but I didn't save the author...

    D&D 5E (2014) Revisiting RAW Darkness Spell

    Rules for Stealth in 4th edition were phrased much, much better (after several rounds of errata, that is), but RAW definition of "hidden" condition is enough to maintain "hidden" condition. I.e. once you hide once successfully, you're hidden forever whatever you do, if you rule lawyer enough...

    D&D 5E (2014) Revisiting RAW Darkness Spell

    Essentially, we're talking about two distinct descriptions of Darkness spell effect: cloud of opaque magical fog, that blocks all light from passing through magical effect that forbids all objects within itself to reflect light, i.e. prevents anything to be illuminated but does not block light...

    ZEITGEIST Yerev the Dragon Tyrant

    His eye is used as a lava heating device in the final encounter in adventure 6, check that again.

    Looking for the system with in-battle character progression

    I'm pretty sure it should predate 1976. If I was pedantic, it's actually Creed who's on the floor in the first round and have to get back up and somehow get that crazy Italian Stallion in check...

    Looking for the system with in-battle character progression

    This is not even my final form. True warriors only evolve in battle. You must pass through near-death experience to become stronger. Face your fears and overcome them. You definitely know this trope - the hero is always an underdog, and have to take some beating from the bad guys until he...

    D&D 5E (2014) Dealing with optimizers at the table

    I'm focusing on a relatively minor point out of context, but I feel this is important enough. In a modern society there is a set of expected norms and behavior patterns, which in theory helps us coexist. Empathy. A bit of modesty. Politeness in speech. The problem is, when someone disregards...

    ZEITGEIST Question on Logos features

    Cryssilyiri paladin, son of skyseer, who is interested in eschatology. I really hope he will invent his own philosophy method in the end, to unite all other inferior ones. Only lacking Beran/Danoran (which are similar, actually) connection here...

    ZEITGEIST Question on Logos features

    Eschatologists are definitely driven by Intellectual debates... in theory. In practice, Grandis Komanov is a typical "charismatic leader", who swayed quite far from the intended direction of Drakran philosophy. So maybe discuss with the player, which type of eschatologist are they?

    ZEITGEIST Tizbiz Zeitgeist Campaign

    Huh. So I guess my group is a minority. They didn't like the attitude of Clergy, but didn't want to kill them on behalf of weredrins, so they tried to sneak into the temple in the night. That plan went predictably wrong, in the end weretigers were forced to relocate to another place and Clergy...

    ZEITGEIST Pcs allied with Pemberton, need suggestions

    Re:Terakalir. First of all, I really don't need a version of ZG where Inatch is somehow her mother. I believe someone here had a version of campaign where all NPCs were changed into cute anime girls... Second, as a fanon version, in my campaign I'm trying to weave a subplot about dragon lords...

    ZEITGEIST Adventure 3 - What did Caius keep in his journals?

    Writing from memory here, so you should search for this in full AP, but I think Caius was overseeing dig sites not only in Risur, but also in the Methia region (Nem ziggurat) and somewhere in Crissilyir (Jiese). Rock Rackus was part of one expedition, as well as Rush/Merton dynamic duo, so you...
