    Do you Run Published Adventures As Is?

    I change every adventure I run to fit my world...I once took an entire 2nd edition Dungeon adventure with a medieval feel and changed it to a 3.5 ed Egyptian feel..... What made it easier for me was I scanned, ocr'ed, and corrected mis-reads into my computer and then just did find & replace to...

    What we're all waiting for...full frontal nudity!!

    It comes up frequently in the games I've played or DMed.... though there was this one time that I liked...this was under 2nd ed with specialty priests. In an underground temple under a glacier dedicated to a white queen aspect goddess there was a huge and deep pool of icy water. The...

    Summoning Monsters

    I'd like some scalable monsters. I'd like to be able to summon the same monster I did at 1st level, but have it be good at 25th level. I've found it annoying that sometimes the monster I need (because of skills or abilities) won't survive a round (because of AoE or saves being tossed around.)

    So, about those halflings...

    Nah...I think it is the fact that I've played too many one shot games where I didn't like the group, so I played the brute...fighter half-orc....slow witted with a one track mind... after awhile you notice that there is some midget point at the privates...like she is offering up some amazing...

    So, about those halflings...

    Offtopic...the one thing I definitely want is a different picture of all the races together....specifically the two pieces of art work that show the different sexes.... I can't remember if it is the gnome or the halfling...but one of them in both pictures is pointing at the genitalia of the...

    The New Core Pantheon

    I have no problems with real world religions in my games. In my games the gods are gods over multiple prime material planes and as such it is quite possible for Thor to be in the same pantheon as Set on my world. In a way it is like Mulhorand in Forgotten realms, which imported their gods...

    Return of the Cursed Magic Item?

    though I agree that cursed items are fun...I think they are fun the same way the deck of many things is fun....so they still ruin the game for most players.

    Great Wheel Questions

    Eventually all my games I've played or ran end up in the planes.... I do buy planar books. I'd love to see a FC1 style book about the planes....basically a small glimpse into a multitude of planes with names and places sprinkled through out the text weaving a grand story for many authors to...

    What OS do you use?

    My fiancé runs Mac os x. I run XP64. At work I use a mix of XP and Vista. And the kids use XP, Vista, and Mac os x.

    Cosmology Part II

    I wonder where the githzerai and the Slaadi are going to go...elemental tempest sounds so much like limbo

    Forgotten Realms: History of the Realms

    I just got my copy.... the last paragraph aside, Mulhorand toasts Unther!?! Admittedly I expected Mulhorand to win, but the area had so many adventure opportunities.... Did/Would Messemprar ally with Thay? What did/would Selune do with the Unther resistance? What did/would Tiamat do in...

    Design and Development: Cosmology

    yup...hence why the faerie stuff didn't seem strange to me at all. I, too, have been doing regiones from ars magica in my D&D games. I prefer to bleed over from one plane to another near a gate and regiones work for that.

    D&D 3.x The 4E Monster Manual -- what 3.5 monsters need the axe?

    I wonder what race would stay in the monster manual if we had a survivor-ish poll...vote them off the island...I mean out of the manual...

    Stop DMing

    Paladins have killed more of my DMing desires than any other.

    What should be added to the Realms?

    Mulhorand needs to take back its empire (except Thay.) Gilgeam needs to rise from the dead like Gilgamesh as a just ruler and bring back Unther. The City of Shade needs to kick some A. Ditto for Thay.

    Design and Development: Cosmology

    I don't know whether to laugh or cry foul....the shadowfell sounds exactly like my graveyard plane.

    D&D 4E What do you think of the 4E background to demons & devils?

    marked. Considering y'all cleaned up the Abyss retcon, I'd be happy to make a bet that it will happen. I guess it is going to become Devilnomicon and Malcanthet is going to be a Lady of Hell since succubi are devils....but then one has to wonder what happens to Lady Fierna. I think that is...

    D&D 4E 4E Devils vs. Demons article

    Unfortunately I do participate in alignment threads. I must have a learning problem. I feel the same way about good and evil as I do about law or chaos. I see shades gray in Good&Evil as I do in Law&Chaos. It all depends on if you view it as personal or community. You can act in a...
