There's a goblin mutation called caveling that gives them light blindness, a climb speed, and darkvision (not sure why that mutation specifies they get darkvision since goblins already have it). It's supposed to be the type of goblin that lives deep underground where there is no light. Not sure...

I'm the odd one out at the table. I'm not incredibly paranoid. Give it time....

I don't change it to give them success if they just guess and happen to hit an alternate answer that might also work. I have to hear a logical thought process that I think actually makes sense (and could work). And if that thought process really could work and in the end they end up solving the...

I've run away from one if that counts. The DM put us up against it at 3rd level. We ran. I (the barbarian) and our rogue escaped. The other four did not. I may have tripped one of them to aid my escape... To be fair the cleric, sorcerer, and paladin were already dead at that point, and I was...

Players discover magic item is fake. Players distrust DM even more now. ??? Profit.

I like to listen to the thought-process of the players. If they logically come up with a reasonable solution with no apparent flaws based on the clues I've given, then I might secretly change the solution to match theirs. If they come up with something that should logically work then they...

I drew the same conclusion as Sammael after a few minutes. Couldn't think of much else for quite awhile. I enjoy puzzles personally, so this one was interesting to look at and try to figure out for me, but I wouldn't give it to my players. They'd get angry at me for giving them an...

At the time those three had all been replaced. Yikyik with Yokyok, Zz'dtri with Pompey, and Hilgya with Leeky. Zz'dtri has since come back, but he's probably just crossed out because not having him scribbled over back then would have been a really obvious spoiler.

Potential future Linear Guild member. I doubt it'll come to that actually, but she'll probably still be relevant in the future.

Didn't know that. Now I do. And now you've gotten your. +1

That's actually a pretty good point. Might look into that. So... Bombs reskinned as magical exploding cards? I like it. If you didn't have XP disabled I'd give you a point. As it is though, +1.

A player of mine has been inspired by Gambit of the X-men and has asked about creating a card master type of character. We're both pretty sure no such thing exists as we want it though, so we've been looking into creating a class for it. Card Master, Gambler, High Roller... Something like that...

I'm pretty sure Mr. Scruffy didn't bull rush Sir Scraggly through a rock wall, he bull rushed him through the hole in the wall that Thog made earlier.

Wasn't her request, another player told the DM of her phobia and asked him to not include spiders for her sake. Then he did what he did. It made her pass out. He thought it was funny and refused to apologize. Nobody who was there is planning on forgiving him.

I tend to stat up any NPC that has a name, but I don't often expect to use most of them in combat. I'd say the majority of my NPCs just get roleplayed at, not fought.

I've known a player with that phobia. She ended up with a jerk DM who, immediately after being asked not to put spiders in, pitted the party against giant spiders and described them in detail. I'm pretty sure no group in my immediate area allows that DM entry any more. Spiders were almost...

Oh, I forgot to say my own. It's the hobgoblins. My group mostly uses a homebrewed aquatic campaign setting. The hobgoblins control the submarines. When you don't have a submarine of your own it's ridiculously easy for the darn things to strike you and then get away unharmed only to come back...

What monster would you say you fear more than any other? The one that elicits an "Oh crap" reaction from you just with its presence alone. What has caused it to be your "most feared"? It doesn't have to be something huge and powerful. Tucker's Kobolds are a pretty obvious example of why...

Nice, you've made it look quite a bit more professional than how I had it. Yeah. The opal simply by the power it's described as having, I would consider the most powerful. The book handled it by not making the future visions controlled; they came in random bursts at inopportune times and...
