    Hurl ideas for details about my new character at me!

    Perhaps he has a tendency to start humming at inopportune moments, such as when the party rogue is listening at the door beyond which live several large and hungry ogres (or something along those lines).

    FR - Map of Athkatla?

    Besides from the Baldurs Gate CRPG game, does anyone know where I can find a map of the city of Athkatla online? Even a rough sketch would be immensely helpful.

    Starting a campaign....

    True. But we're still working on where everyone is from. I have a Sun Elf wizard from Evermeet, a Human outcast noble from Tethyr, a Vanaran barbarian/wu jen from Kara-Tur, a Human bard/fighter from Silverymoon, a Moon Elf cleric and a Human monk/bard. Only three of the players know each...

    Starting a campaign....

    I'm looking for ideas for getting characters together. I'm starting a new campaign in FR, and I need to find some reasons why the party is together. I have a few ideas, but some are cliche. Any help would be appreciated.

    DMs, Worldbuilders, lend me your brains!

    Kara-Tur If you have access to it, the Kara-Tur boxed set is quite valuable. I am currently designing a world with an Oriental part to it, and I am absolutely LOOTING that material. Actually, what you have so far is close to what Kara-Tur is, so if you don't have it, see if you can pick it up.

    [OT] Anyone here own an HDTV?

    16:9 is only the aspect ratio, ie. widescreen. For true HDTV, you'll need a card that can handle 1080i (the "i" is for "interlaced"). Otherwise, all you're really doing is doubling the 525 lines of resolution to fill up 1080 lines. The bigger the screen, the worst it will look. And S-Video...

    Seeking group in Northern Va/DC

    NoVa I'm in a group that runs a game in Reston. Might be a bit too far out, but if coming from Falls Church, it's not too bad. We'd like to have another player (one is taking a two month leave of absence). We do like to rotate who runs a game, so everyone gets a chance. We currently are...

    Need Advice on Party Fighter

    Hmmmm...... Well, I've played a fighter from the start of 3e. The first feat I took was Combat Reflexes, and it has come in handy on many occasions. I had been focusing on the bastard sword (took Weapon Specialization), but along comes this nifty Icy Burst Longspear. The rest of the party...
