    Damsel-of-Distress

    Shoes waits for the rest of the group before responding. "I'm in. But if we're going to do a decent job, we need to know all the details of this first attempt on the Lady." He takes another sip of his whiskey. "When did the attack take place? Where? Has the attacker been identified? Was he...

    Damsel-of-Distress

    A thin reedy youth walks slowly to the bar. His brown hair is shaggy and touseled, his hazel eyes sport a mischevious grin as he surveys the assortment of liquor available. There's something odd about his steps as he walks the length of the bar. It takes a moment to determine exactly what it is...

    Liv.Greyhawk: Sharks and Sahuagin in NYR DYV!!??!?!??

    Not really. By the RAW creatures make no distinction between fresh and salt water. IRL some species of shark are known to freely move from fresh to salt water. That would be even more widespread if they had intelligent amphibious allies to help them migrate. If your hesitation is due to the...

    OOC - Lost Tomb of the Sphinx Queen - 14th Level Dungeon Crawl

    Well, since you mentioned that you wanted five PC for this adventure, there's almost no better character to fill that 5th slot than a bard. His spells give him a secondary role as a healer, his fighting abilities let him snipe and flank almost as well as a rogue, he can handle traps and locks...

    OOC - Lost Tomb of the Sphinx Queen - 14th Level Dungeon Crawl

    Except for the fact that a first level bard can't be lawful, you're almost there. ;)

    OOC - Lost Tomb of the Sphinx Queen - 14th Level Dungeon Crawl

    I'm very interested! My character concept is a Gnomish Naysayer. What I mean by that is a gnome bard who specializes in oration as his performance style. Additionally, he's maxed out on the feats/spells/skills that improve his ability to counterspell other spellcasters. ie. Improved...

    Recruiting: Wizard (STILL) Needed for Age of Worms

    I posted a cleric before the crash, and then lost track of this thread. Here's a wizard I'd like to play, he's a bitter half-elf generalist/counterspell specialist. Horace the Halfbreed (CR 1, HD 1d4+1) Half-Elf Wiz1 CG Medium Humanoid (Elf) Init +1 Spd 30 Senses Low-light Vision...

    Have You Introduced New People to RPGs?

    Literally hundreds. I have founded three different gaming clubs, one of which is still going strong after 20 years. I only wish I had more time to continue introducing players to gaming.

    Favorite Romantic Song

    My wife and I had our first dance to "Have I told you lately that I love you?" by Van Morrison and the Chieftans. Very cool. Lessee ... six years later, can I remember anything else? "Better than anything" by Natalie Cole and (someone I can't remember) "Here comes your man" by the Pixies "Mrs...

    This DM takes requests!

    I'd be very interested in getting into either a Shackled City or Age or Worms campaign.

    CN archetypes

    Tom Sawyer, although he does develop some good tendencies. Martin Blank, from Grosse Point Blank. Retief - without a doubt, one of the archetypical examples of CN.

    Need help w/makin a 15th level Elven Paladin

    Here's how I'd work it. Went with the two-bladed sword. Left you a little money for basic equipment. Paladins are tricky, because you really have to balance three stats. You need STR for combat, CHA for turning undead and smiting, and laying on hands, and you need a high enough WIS that you can...

    You're Joking!

    How about a d20 Modern joke that's offensive to Gully Dwarves? Gurgle the Gully Dwarf applies for a job at a telephone help desk. "I'm going to give you a very simple test Gurgle. If you pass you get the job. Just use the following three words correctly. Green, Pink and Yellow." Gurgle...

    Hanukkah D&D Campaign

    Here's another vote for Testament. This is a great idea for a family bonding activity, as well as a great teaching tool. I'm not Jewish, but I have used Testament in my church to teach some history-type material to my youth group. It's an excellent game.

    Is the Bard broken?

    Saying that the bard is broken because it doesn't directly compare to a fighter or sorceror is like saying a scalpel is broken because it isn't a longsword. Two very different tool with very different uses. You don't perform surgery with a longsword, and you don't slay orcs with a scalpel...

    Unorthodox Eberron Campaign

    It's funny. When I read this thread title I thought "The Le is doing Eberron stuf now? I didn't know that was OGC?!" :D
