    First appearance of Baba Yaga?

    I know that the hag and her chicken legged hut were in an early D&D product, but I can't remember which. Any help?

    Contest winnner CS accounts?

    I don't mean to be a pest, and I know people are busy, but over in the "Vote for the Sng Entry Winner" thread, Drew, Jack of Shadows and I were wondering when our CS acounts might be activated. Last we heard, they were to have been activated last weekend, and that doesn't seem to have happened...

    Monofilament "cyberpunk" whip rules

    This kind of weapon just begs for some kind of critical fumble table. In Shadowrun, if you ever missed with the whip, you have to make a DEX check or be attacked by your own weapon. This fits the way Gibson described the weapon in the first place. The assassin in Johnny Mnemonic lops of his own...

    What's the Most Asinine Character Idea/Concept You've Dealt With?

    So he was the Psion Scion? :D I forgot about another on in our games. Although to be far, this was for an Over the Edge game, so the concept of asinine and over the top kind of goes out the window. A sentient, telepathic brine shrimp (aka Sea Monkey) with a little tiny Wave Motion Gun (like...

    favorite book of all time

    That would be my favorite as well. Close behind it would be "Ender's Game" by Orson Scott Card. Like Tarrasque Wrangler said, it's like the author was watching my life, but he made all the sucky parts incredibly dramatic and interesting.

    Honeymarsh Academy (D&D3.5) Chapter 2

    Arvins dashes to engage the goblin. Spotting the chair in his path, he hooks it with his foot and kicks it towards the barbarian. "Take that!" OOC: Arvin moves to G6. He attempts to kick the chair in F5 into the goblin barbarian. No idea what kind of penalty applies on this, or even if it's...

    Help me make a unique group of henchmen!

    In Sigil? Dretch, Nupperibo, or any other small demons/devils. For smarter foes, there's Quasits, Imps and Mephits. Small zombies might be pretty awful too.

    What's the Most Asinine Character Idea/Concept You've Dealt With?

    For D&D Half Celestial, Half Unicorn Cleric of Elhonna Closely followed by the 3 Int Swashbuckler who thought he was a doctor and insisted on bleeding everyone with leeches to "suck the poison out". He killed more party members than any monster. Ad how could I forget the merchant who was...

    How Did/Will You Name Your Kids?

    My parents had some very specific naming protocols for their kids. First, none of us were to be named after my father. He had enough teasing as Lester all his life, and felt it should end with him. They wanted all their children to have a Biblical first name. Middle names were fair game, but had...

    Great Hero Showdown Final Round (Voting Closed)

    There's a simple test. Put Batman and Indy up against the same opponent. Let's say a guy with a scimitar. Indy does his standard trick and pulls a gun and shoots him. Batman has an entire utility belt just to deal with stuff like this. Sleep gas, batarang, or just rush up and disarm the guy...

    Fairygold

    Not really. The books state that 50 gold coins weigh one pound. Pretty cut and dried. More to the point, it's always good to remember that using science to argue about magic is a lot like masturbating with a cheese grater. It's a brief intense experience, but ultimately painful. :D

    Fairygold

    Tiny creature is something the size of a cat. Average weight for a cat is 7-12 pounds. According to the PHB page 112 there are 50 coins in a pound. So the proper amount should be 350 - 600 gp per tiny fey. Of course, being innately magical, a fey may very produce more gold than "science" would...

    Custom Adventures? (Inspired by the Underdark Thread)

    Complete module or adventure path with maps and artwork? No. You'd never make back your investment. Even if you kept the rights to the adventure it would still be dicey trying to find more buyers for an "all-destrachan Underdark adventure. That said, smaller custom encounters might be viable...

    Not yet. And aside from CMG & SEP no sign of the prize wagon either. :D Which isn't too surprising. It's a busy time of year.

    Which books bring you to tears?

    While most of the Discworld stuf makes me laugh, the ends of "Wee Free Men" and "Hat Full of Sky" always choke me up a little.
