    'The Perilous (Chapter I, II, III, IV)

    Belok notes the large elaborate polished brass lock built into the door- a wizards tower, probably a magical lock, Belok thinks. He traces with his eyes the lines of a subtle silvery filament that run throughout the doors face in a decorative pattern - almost invisible to the eye. Belok notes...

    CHAPTER IV: Shabu's Tower A few minutes later, you are gathered, with your mounts and wagon, atthe base of Shabu's tower, which appears to be deserted. The wooden mannequin (which was no help during the battle- it just cowered off to one side somewhere) seems excited to be in this area. It...

    OOC: Just to confirm that Thane's horse is indeed larger than the saurian. It is medium sized. The horse is large. The round 3 post will be up in about an hour or so!

    How do YOU reintroduce villains you bring back?

    There's probably a critical flaw somewhere in my plan.. One of the main villians of the campaign was a high level lich. The players started out by working for him, then suddenly killed him (surprising even me- they arranged the hit behind the GMs back!), and then they raced to his lair and...

    You are all getting re-aquainted with each other and catching up, when there is a sudden growl from behind a rock formation on the far side of the fireside shrine. A 5' tall saurian clambers to the top of the rocks, snarling. Sher Farhid recognizes it as the same species as the creature the...

    Is it DnD, or MtG? (General Griping)

    I guess Hero and Gurps might have counted, maybe, if your'e talking about use of tactical options- those do provide some. But the lack of a class or levelling system really crippled both of them for me. Over the course of a campaign, you would never see any rise in intensity. by exposing all the...

    Is it DnD, or MtG? (General Griping)

    You know what I think this is? Honest: the idea that the new D&D versions is like M:Tg all comes back to one thing. With the new D&D, you can be good at it. No previous RPG had this quality. Previously- in D&D as in many other games: you could be a good player in the sense of being inventive...

    How do you defend alignment in D&D

    Alignment is really just a tag on your character that helps define how certain spells, character class abilities, and magic items react and interact. That said, you get your alignment from how you play and define your character. If you have players saying "My guy does this because he's...
