Something I do with my players is allow them a number of NPCs that they can pull out at any given time. Say a player needs a to see a friend he knows of, so he just gives a description and brief backstory and I as the GM create the location where he can find them. Only rules I have most be a...

Also look at crazy history stories, examples: Shanghaied, press gangs, Edinburgh body snatchers, London undergrounds and such. The biggest thing in a city is figuring if something mundane or supernatural.

Steal from your local news. :) Police, detective, crime dramas and most other shows are full of plots for a city game.

Got to say I think conditioning plays a very big role in this; size and shape of books are imprinted in us. When something is outside of those parameters it feels and looks wrong. (Okay, it may just me)

Well, back in the day it was a lot of history books about European history and design that I could steal and base my games on. :) You use what is most available to you. :)

I don't want the magical of fantastical to be placed into a game world just because it is cool. There need to be some thought to how it interacts. Magical and the fantastical should not be an answer but a resource in the game. Personal taste, I like a world like Warhammer or The Witcher...

I say the Interpretation of Dark Vision ruins dungeon crawls.

Trudvang - it is just beautiful Warhammer Products - for its age was different and cool

Warhammer and Earthdawn for me. Settings were fun. I do enjoy The Witcher setting but not from the TTRPG but from the computer game, use the World Book that was published way before the TTRPG came out.

Pitch Black/Riddick

Yes, badges for Gen Con going back sometime, somewhere and a few program books too.

First a few questions: Do spell related objects retain any sounds, colors, vibrations, stirrings, etc.? What of background noise, all those spells taking place around cast by others or that may occur naturally? And what about cleric spells? It can get confusing. In my games, spells create...

Not done, just look at them all and think I should prone

64 now - I look at my collection of game books and wonder where I can sell them for retirement.
