In the campaign that I just wrapped up, there was a hallway of endless doors. In a previous campaign it dropped the PCs 900 years into the past, They skipped forward through time, but never made it back to the present. In the past they managed to inspire a chivalrous order of knights, ~500...

hmm Proactive faction developments. THe list of Factions I posted was from the beginning of December. I started with a grid of 5 factions, each with 5 separate stages of plotting. The grid was abandoned, as my players occasionally complained about having to spend so much time reacting to the...

There is a great big castle, shaped like a hand in the middle of the city, it has been abandoned to monsters and ghosts for decades. (seven sessions, between levels 4,8,10) last session my group jumped off the tower of the thumb and used feather fall, just for fun. Zip-lining was also discussed.

In one campaign I had them as nomadic savages, on a great unexplored grassland. the hook was that they used WAR CHARIOTS! one driver, one "Hero" with a great bow, and 2 runners with spears. Hyena's pulled the chariots. It was awesome. they will be appearing this way again in my next campaign.

54) Out frolicking (our pixie's fav. excuse)

We had a blast on the first island. Did anyone else encounter were-sharks, a friendly vampire that brought us breakfast, fight skeletons that could (theoretically) be destroyed by Flare and have frequent mentions of the previous explorers Jungle Jimmie and his side-kick Punjabi Bobbi? Did...

I have a character in an upcoming campaign with grandmother issues. He is a feckless, hedonistic elf. But her voice in the back of his head is always urging him to be a better person. He is pretty sure she is dead, and haunting him. I think maybe ill add the mysterious arrival of home...
