My current campaign has hit the halfway point and will probably be finished by December, since I have no desire to run very far if at all into epic levels. By virtue of my work schedule, I am going to have SIGNIFICANTLY less free time VERY soon, so I have started trying to figure out what I want...

42. Claybore Claybore was a sorcer in the Cenotaph Road series by Robert Vardeman. He was so powerful that he could not be killed outright. Instead, his parts were scattered all over the universe. He threatened thousands of worlds even with only a few of his body parts attached. He...

41. Strahd Von Zarovich Strahd slew his brother to woo his beautiful fiancee for his own. He became probably the most well known rpg vampire and has killed many a PC and NPC in Barovia. His power grew so great that he was likely the first Darklord of the domain of Ravenloft. He is known...

I DM'ed 1E from 1982-1992. I have gotten some VERY "old school" sessions playing Necromancer Games' Crucible of Freya and Tomb of Abysthor and a converted Village of Hommlett, as well as Torrents of Dread from Dungeon and a converted Isle of Dread. I own two of the Goodman Games adventures...

Oh, my indoctrination was January 1982. 6th grade. Age 11. DM

Awesome! I am speechless. DM

1. Conan - Conan gets the job done. Aragorn is slower to act. 2. Tanis - Jack is a whiny little brat who can't fight his way out of a paper bag without help. DM

I am looking for a conversion of I8 - Raveger of Time. Has anyone done/seen this? Thanks in advance! DM

I have wanted to convert and run the Mere of Dead Men series, but I have one problem. One of the issues I have that contains (IIRC) the 2nd of the adventures has several pages of the adventure printed twice and several pages missing (the duplicate pages in their place). Does anyone know how I...

My classmates who bought the books and decided to learn the game, weren't great readers and the 1E DMG was... chunky. So, they gave it to me and told me to read it and be the DM when they played. They weren't my friends. Actually, they picked on me constantly, but were willing to stop if I...

Time to give the ladies a chance. Who is the spookiest actress? My votes are: Christina Ricci Nicole Kidman Kathy Bates Bette Davis I cannot pick just one and may think of more. Your turn. DM

29. Stormbringer SPOILER ALERT The Black Sword. It was wielded by Elric of Melnibone, but it is more than a simple weapon. It gave him just enough life to succeed in his quests, but demanded the terrible price of fresh souls being given to it. Stormbringer demanded the lives of all...

<shivers> Yup. DM

I emailed you. I am very interested. DM

There's one in every crowd. For me it is a Half-Dragon Drow dual-scimitar-wielding Ranger. I have one player who always wants to play that. Not sure why... DM

I am going to support two of the previously made recommendations. The Sunless Citadel is a great introductory adventure. If you are looking for something free, go to the Necromancer Games link already provided and download The Wizard's Amulet, or use the powers of the Amazing Internet Wayback...

Though Christopher Walken is definitely my number 1, I also thought of another actor on the fringe: Billy Bob Thornton I saw in a recent article, a photo of the wall outside his in-home recording studio. In the photo was a sign with a gun hanging from it. The sign said, "We don't call...

22. Randall Flagg Since it is after 7:00 p.m. 24 hours later, I guess I can nominate a new villain. Here goes: Randall Flagg Randall Flagg is Nyarlathotep. He goes by a multitude of names, including Ahaz, Anubis, Legion and R'lyeh. His attire is purely ordinary: a dark hooded sweater...

Oh, I forgot another reference: The "Lone Gunmen" in the X-Files, who also had a few episodes of their own show, were shown playing D&D occasionally. As for a negative reference, I saw a "makeover" show the other day that made over a teen who played D&D so that he could "find a girlfriend"...

As a "religious person" and a gamer, I don't find the game offensive, as I know it is just a game. Have you explained the game to the prospective gamer and asked if he would find it offensive? The best way to go about it is to talk to him. Don't assume what he would or would not be offended...
