My teeth hate me. First, when I was about 14, I was in need of braces. The dentist decided four of my teeth needed to come out because there just wasn't enough room (hence the jumbled teeth and need for braces). So he novacaines me up and starts cranking. After a half hour of listening to...

The party was escorting a sorcerer thru the desert. A blue dragon was pursuing, wanting the sorcerer, specifically. Burrowing beneath the sand, the dragon says, "Give me the sorcerer." The battle-cleric responds, "Come and get him yourself." Blue dragon head pops up. Breath weapon fires...

Meepo is our party's sorcerer. Sort of. When our characters were "undercover" in Zhentil Keep, trying to rescue the party wizard, we all spent most of our time masked by illusions and transmutations. At one point, we found ourselves embroiled in what was essentially a gladatorial match with a...

Keyser Soze. Seriously. The unknown devil. The thing that can manipulate you and make you fear and shake, and you can't touch it, no matter how hard you try. That basic idea is the core concept behind many a successful horror story.

Hey all, Anyone want to chime in on some ideas for a character. Here's the lowdown. Game will be running this summer only. I'll be playing a fighter-type, but I'd like to add a little bit of something else/versatility to him. Not a big fan of the big thwomper who has nothing else to...

Depends, but here's a thought. If you really want the group to continue, despite being dead... Immediately after they die, their respective patron deities pluck their bodies from the prime material, so that they won't be corrupted as undead (they are, after all, high-level, great heroes of the...

Usually I keep it very simple. "Roleplaying is cooperative storytelling." If they ask what that means, I explain thusly. "When you read a novel or watch a movie, the storyline has already been laid out for you by the author/writer/director etc. Cooperative storytelling allows you to be an...

If you're really railing against all things evil, Good is a nice domain. Knowledge is good for sniffing out evil and its hiding places and so forth. If you're gonna be a battle-cleric, War is worth a look. If you can convince your DM, see if you can use the Retribution domain from FR. Seems...

Currently I devote the equivalent of three "nights" per week to gaming. I play a game from noon until early evening on Saturdays (admitedly, more than a "night"). I run a game on Wednesday evening. And I easily kill another night's worth of time (in various chunks throughout the week)...

Anyone up for D20 "All in the Family"? I'm a Charismatic Hero 3, Newlywed Liberal 9. Just call me "Meathead." Fear my "Roundabout Discussion" ability, as well as my "Bigot Defense." Boo-yah!

Regarding the rules and profanity exchanged between people on the field or on the sidelines at an NFL game. Take a look at the lips on close-ups of people getting into it after a little push-and-shove. Those aren't "gol-darn-its" and "jeepers" being exchanged. DocMoriarty. No, I am not...

Sapp said on television that he was like a heat-seeking missile, boom, boom, boom. He said that he wanted to beat the bejesus out of a man twice his age, half his weight, and nowhere near his physcial strength and ability. How very mature of the Tampa Bay player. Personally, I think he should...

Easy enough, pard. Deadlands. The rootinest, tootinest, walkin'-dead shootinest, demented-western RPG north, south, east, AAAAAAND west of the Pecos.

Park Ranger Roy C. Sullivan was struck by lightning eight times before he died (of natural causes). Elephants can't jump. They're the only animal on earth incapable of doing so. There are no rivers in Saudi Arabia. Before Mickey Mouse became the big man on campus, Felix the Cat was America's...

Shiv's Entry: Ogre Mentality Haiku Me kill now smash push. Punch stomp punch club-swing thud thud. Crush drop thump happy.

The virtues have been looked at in a number of ways (by the church and by various people). Here's a handy little site. Personally I prefer the contrary virtues, since they specifically protect against the seven deadly sins. http://www.deadlysins.com/virtues.html

Several previous campaigns have begun as the characters: 1. Are shipwrecked together. 2. Share the same ultra-realistic dream and go to investigate the real-world site of the dream. 3. Attend the funeral of a mutual friend. 4. Are all orphans who grew up together, just now striking out on...

Actually, a friend of mine ended up with a cat named Hastur. She found it, lost and terrified, and took it in. She started looking for its family, but didn't want to name it so she wouldn't become attached. So we started calling it "the cat who shall not be named". Eventually, she kept it...

There will not be a GenCon because there will be no gaming, at least not for us. We will spend our time lapping up puddle water in cornfields, eeking out a meager survival. That is, until the apes come and round us up with horses and guns. I have seen the future and it stars Chuck Heston.
