I don't know if I wrote it in the adventures, but in my home campaign that inspired WotBS (and the earlier campaign in which Rhuarc was a PC, and Coaltongue was just an upstart half-orc revolutionary), Trilla always had psychic powers. I think I had recently read some Dragonriders of Pern and...

Ah, the 'level you should get access' matters more for the magical stuff than just the raw stats stuff. Also, I think Roscommon and Khalundurrin were meant to carry the PCs through to later adventures without needing constant upgrades, to be pre-loaded with neat stuff. A complication to...

I hope the PCs don't feel too lost at this point in the campaign. Especially since That's a neat map. I miss having a desktop PC where I could make stuff like that. Got any surprises planned for adventure 6?

Uff, you're asking me to boot up a 10 year old OS in my brain. Okay, lemme try to remember how this system worked. I don't really understand the question, though. The party ought to be level, what, 11 when they start adventure 6? Aodhan just booped them into Paragon tier, yeah? (I assume...

Forum rules discourage political talk, but I'll briefly say that it seems unlikely the Republican party will allow such guard rails to be built. I'm not opposed to generative AI. Rather, I see discussions of it as a venue to highlight the root source of most of the problems in society...

As with so many things since the Industrial Revolution, the problem of new technology is not that it changes work, but rather that it allows an ever smaller number of people to consolidate the wealth produced by the economy at large, which leaves larger and larger numbers of people at the whims...

Hm. Interesting framing.

My understanding of the legality is that if you own the DVD, it's, like, legal enough for you to contact the creator of this fanedit and ask for where to download it. https://ifdb.fanedit.org/man-of-steel-a-symbol-of-hope/ (Another non-superhero fanedit I really liked took the Hobbit trilogy...

A friend of mine postulated that most monsters are just 'chupacabras' - meaning that they are simply things that leap out at you and try to kill you, and have no more 'story' to them than would an angry wolf. Like, most every demon just wants to tear you apart. They just have different powers...

If Batman decided to play baseball because his poor stepmother got insulted at a baseball game once and Bruce struggles with anger, and wants to beat up the guy, but decides instead to try to dedicate his victory to her in a big baseball game in order to spite all the meanies in baseball...

I'm deeply effing honored that this campaign was an impetus to the creation of so much art. (unless that's just two images with a bunch of versions labeled couple.final.no-really.fourthdraft.smallfixes.finalhopefully.etc.)

Samurai CSI, but witch escapes.

So no driving around in a car in this version? I guess that was kinda silly.

That name was courtesy of a doctor friend of mine, inspired by https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friedrich_Daniel_von_Recklinghausen And I'll take 'the setpieces and characters were amazing.'

I'm actually surprised we didn't write in a "the Eye has magic that auto-stabilizes you, so if the party loses the baddies can toss them into the Scourge prison." Remind me if your players read this thread.

Destroy all motorized ships on the seas? Poor Khalundurrin. I like the Dawn Knight concept.

So in the aftermath of the adventure, how did the players like it? Have you taken a look at my suggestions to try to make adventure 5 a bit more interesting? https://www.enworld.org/threads/mission-to-improve-mission-to-the-monastery-of-two-winds.692365/

I think you're the only group not to have to beat Asrabey down. Nice job having enough of a bond with him to get him to have perspective.

I have pursued this for a long time. I've tried lots of things, but nothing that's really easy to just slot into existing D&D without a lot of changes. It looks like you're trying to build a whole new combat system, though. Or are you intending to layer this over D&D as is? I worry about the...

The weirdest real world resonance for me is that when we had finished the Act Three hardcover compilation, the last thing for me to do was write the Foreword: a sort of capstone commentary, so I opined a bit on the ways the world can change, and our influence on it. I wrote it November 5, 2016...
