    First time in the modern world.

    Hello again, im bumping this back again to ask a quick question. Ive had a look at the books mentioned, and the one that seemed to sound right was D20 future. My question, is this a stand alone book with all the required rules, or do I need D20 modern as well? Thanks again eveybody

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

    Well, after read this load I've realised my experiences are nothing compared to some of these. anyway... In a game I played once there was a player who wanted to play a tramp that refused to stop following the party. He was armed with pockets full of stones, a stick, and for the ultimate insult...

    XP As Will To Power?

    Thats just about how I've always thought about it. At least when it comes to fantasy games it makes much more sense than 'experience' in its literal meaning. Everyone has 'power', and some have more than others. Gods have so much they practicly are power. Anyone can gain it, and if they know how...

    Sorcerous feat: Weave Spell

    Im not sure. As everyone knows the sorcerers stength is its number of spells per day and the ability to cast any they know. Perfect for agressive spells, but lousey when you really want to get 'that neat spell', but know you'd only cast it ocassionaly. For a caster with a high spell craft this...

    Celirans [Was: prehensile tails and PC races]

    I like them. Good stuff, these guys would fit in great in an area of my game world. A varient that has the colour changeing ability would be interesting. Giveing them a nice hide bonus and posibly the ability to hide in plain sight. Id have to compare to other camo cretures to be sure how to do...

    An unlikely evil alliance

    Where do you think demons and devils go for a romantic night out. Weird idea.

    This bard thinks he has the X factor

    Yes, ive read soul music, as has the player. Im a fan of pratchets books. But its not realy meant to be a un-serious campain, Im going to have to be careful not to spoil the feel of the rest of the game, and main plot. But I think they can join well enough; eg- just as everything going well...

    Party Roles

    I had/have a player who seemed to take no role at all, leaveing the goblin rogue player to run around the town, normaly causeing chaos. I kept telling him that his cleric should be the 'face' or speaker of the group, still no. He only seemed to enjoy the fights. Then He changed to a halfling...

    Rogues getting Cleric style loving?

    Think of the book animal farm, a well known quote, "All animal are equal, but some are more equal than others". know it? My games tend to be light on traps also; extra dangers dureing a fight are frequent, but these rarely have any need of a rogue. But ive normaly had someone want to play one...

    Lame Prestige Classes

    I dont mind the prestige classes, theres a couple which seem rather odd and I dont think Id use, but theres always a time for them. The Lore Master scares me though, not the class, I just wish the picture was different. The moment a player saw it he turned the page right away with a surprised...

    Regular NPCs and the Large Party

    Maybe its not as simple as I think it is, but why not have her talk first, say something and if their meant to be roleplaying properly they cant realy ignore her. Makeing her a plot element is good, but even makeing her presence known with ocassional comments, or simply saying what shes doing at...

    Oops... PCs too strong.

    Maybe even something like pixies trying to take hi hammer. Theres loads of options, just be imaginative.

    This bard thinks he has the X factor

    Ive got a bard player who seems to be trying to become the worlds first rockstar. Hes saveing up so he can get himself a, as he said "a +5 sixstring", the sixstring being his own varient of the lute, basicly a guitar. By enchanting it he gets all the benifits of and electric guitar and more...

    Oops... PCs too strong.

    I stand on the other side of the fence here, I like my players to feel a real sense of freedom in the world i put them in. But as for the nothing can beat them thing, I simply cant belive that. Maybe you already have, but you need to use more than just something 'tough', use something 'tricky'...

    The campagn-adventure design checklist

    One Ive used that works nicely is the 'Guild For Hire', its basicly an adventures guild; buy special stuff, sell special stuff, travel aids, local news, put up help requests jobs missions opertunitys etc, and more importantly look through and take them. I dont often put the major stuff in...

    An Item a day

    Sun Champions Protector This shield when found first apears to be a master work small shield. It is roughly the shape of a key hole, with the handhold under the circular part and the rest extending back along the top of the fore arm. It is golden in colour and has simple but fine engraved lines...

    First time in the modern world.

    Thanks for the replys. I think D20 modern sounds good, but then again im probably just saying that because ive done DnD, but still. As for the campain, first I'll explain a bit of why. Its kind of an old dream I had from my early school years. Me and a friend, Tom, used to play out little...

    First time in the modern world.

    I’ve never done a modern or future game before, but am interested in finding a good system to use. I don’t know much of what’s available. My idea is to find an appropriate rule set to use with my own future type setting. I know I’m being a bit unspecific, so ask what you need. What would you...

    Swear At & Insult Your Players

    One I use is from the 'Thief' line of computer games. Taffer or ocasionally Taffard, its simple and sounds right as a common insult. In the game it was a word for a thief/law breaker/or genraly sneaky person, but it doesnt have to be too specific. A rather un rehearsed one a player spat out...
