Thank you, now my elven ranger knows who to find after that drunken night in the Wild Coast. :p

If you're ever stuck without an idea and you can find a copy the Traveller little black book 1001 adventures is a great tool to have.

Leave the character as is until after the final battle, then discover that Acererak has her true soul. She can then either take her true soul back and remain a half elf, or embrace her inner hag. Doing this gives the other players an opportunity to role play through the half elf's anguish at...

I started with a map of Europe and North Africa as it would have appeared 12,000 years ago when Doggerland was above the North Sea. I altered the map somewhat. For example, there are a pair of Italian boots rather than a single one. I then added some historical elements, though with different...

I once had a small mace, that if I used it to stun and the victim was rendered unconscious from the attack. The victim would have to make a saving throw or have it's gender switched and race changed to a random result. It gave new meaning to character assassination.

In my game the "schools" are now separate skills. You can only cast the type of spells for which you have skills. You could have spell casting skills so difficult to learn that you can only learn one.

I have counter spelling as a skill that can be used to counter the types of spells you know how to cast.

Something from our table: "You're rather pathetic. Perhaps you should crawl back inside your mother's womb and start life over."

I allow the dice to be what they are. This does mean that a little goblin can one shot a 20th level character with a critical hit and a roll of 100% for a decapitation. Of course the players can do this to my wonderful, kind, good, honest, cookie baking, children loving villains too. Most...

I look for pictures using google or deviantart.

Technically there are four categories of looting that my players involve themselves in. First loot for themselves, which is the rare magic item, large amounts of coin or high value jewelry, art, etc... The second is loot to use as gifts to major NPCs. Third loot that they let their hirelings...

My game does not have caps. Using "white room theory crafting" and the house rules we have it is possible for a player to raise one of their character's attributes from 18 to 30 by level 15. However, they would do this at the expense of improving nothing else. An illustrative example would be a...

A pirate could use fish as weapons. Small fish thrown like a dagger, larger fish used as a club. Regardless of how slippery the ship's deck are or a dock is the pirate never falls.

Cloud of daggers to cut sails and crew.

A bottle of liquor for the drunks in the back alley behind your favorite bar. "She's a good girl officer, she has been here all night keeping us company".

I am making a few assumptions about your game in order to "port" my very home brew game into a more standardized form. If you have your players roll 4d6 dropping the lowest for their attributes, a warlock would choose a number of attributes where he would only roll 3d6. This represents a...

A being able to polymorph might think Cogito ergo sum and become what it thinks it is, yet, if the same being were to think Cogito ergo ka-boom only a pile of ash would be found, for, that is what happens when thinking of fireballs.

Once upon a time I was playing a thief. I was heavily encumbered having taken it upon myself to secure the treasures that we had found inside the keep. My treasure box was filled to the brim and as I was slowly leaving the keep I looked down into the moat from the gatehouse bridge and saw the...

In my world only one in twenty dragon eggs will produce a true dragon. All the rest in the clutch will produce miniature dragons ranging mostly from the size of ferrets to something that can be ridden. These smaller dragons do not breath fire and have a low intelligence. They sadly for the...

I would start with the ad&d healer that can be found online. Change the cure spells to cause.
