    A Work Intensive Approach to World Creation

    Yeah, I've got the playtesting copies of Mystic Strife, which combines Arcane Strife with the unreleased Divine Strife (I thought it had been released, but I was wrong) but anyway, let's move on to the modes of dress. OK, during the Charlemagne time, for the most part peasants wore simple garb...

    A Work Intensive Approach to World Creation

    I'll give examples of modes of dress on Sunday. Right now, I'm off to the lake to enjoy summer with the kids.

    A Work Intensive Approach to World Creation

    I figured, for right now, using the standard D&D pantheon would be easier on new GM's and players to handle. I figure for the Magocracy, I'd develope new Gods, along with a few other things. After we place the Theocracy, we'll move in and do some detail work, along with a town and some other...

    A Work Intensive Approach to World Creation

    Well, we're back again. And some changes have been made. The river empties into a huge lake, and then flows outwards. The Theocracy sits atop a HUGE mesa, created by thier God to lift thier lands above the infedel. We need someone for them to worship, and I figure, how about this... We go...

    How do you DM High level and stay sane?! (Piratecat help!)

    It's daunting at first, but you get used to it eventually. Easy not, write a "crib sheet" for high level NPC's, that breaks down their AC and other bonuses by item/spell. That well when something gets dispelled or shut down via counterspell, you can easily adjust. I've GM'd past 10th level a...

    [Copy] Work Intensive GMing - creating a world

    Any chance of getting this archived? It's a bit long, and I can't really think of anything to add that I won't be doing in the World Creation thread.

    A Work Intensive Approach to World Creation

    I considered the work we did on the first area, and realized something. There's nothing that fun. No ancient ruins to explore, full of wonder and danger. All recent crap. Soooo, let's crack open our map and pick a spot tommorrow evening. If anyone has any suggestions, post em now. When I get...

    Playing the crazed wizard of the party

    I brought this up. The Monk was retconned to 9th level and STILL leveled. (YAY!) He took Firewhip Kick for his ability (We use variant monks, in case you can't tell) which gives the awesome ability to kick EVERYONE within 5' with various penalties. The XP had been totalled up, and it was time...

    Playing the crazed wizard of the party

    Wow, thanks for playing in our campaign for the last year, and watched some PC's manage to break free of insanity. Thanks for fully understanding our underlying campaign concept. Who are you, Yoda? Wow, I see you really get it. If you were so bored, why bother replying. Oh, wait, you can't...

    Should Campaign Settings include a metaplot?

    Just something tickling the memory. From back around the TSR days. Oh well, probably mis-remembering.

    Should Campaign Settings include a metaplot?

    Wasn't there an FR writer who hated the setting, and thus trashed it purposefully?

    [Rant] Fantasy - beyond the "standard" paradigm

    Naw, it was aimed at me, because everyone knows that Zippo Packing Chimps are arrogant. :D

    They'd revoke my D&D gamer license if they knew....

    I can't stand druids or rangers.

    Should Campaign Settings include a metaplot?

    I dislike the idea of marketing division deciding where my campaign is going.
