I am 2/3 of the way through the Shadows Over Istivin campaign arc. DM

This has been a very interesting thread. I think this proposed book tackles some very challenging issues. There are some root issues here: 1. Communication 2. Cooperation 3. Respect If you could teach these concepts to every one who needed to learn them, you could be a VERY wealthy man...

Yup, it was just a wee bit too early to be 3E. It was an AWESOME adventure though. It IS my RtWPM (I ignore the 25th Anniversary adventure). DM

But I had to sign for it as a "Sick Leave Day" at work. DM

Knowing that Dragotha is making an appearance in the Age of Worms Adventure Path, I think it will be White Plume Mountain. Diaglo earler in this thread said it had already been converted in Dungeon. What issue? If so, I missed it. If that is not the one, then it will be either Isle of Dread...

Well, Queen D, Everything went well THAT day. It was the next morning I found out about the former student of mine that took his own life (see my tragic news thread). I got back from the service a little while ago. So, I took another day off (mostly) today to go to the service. Two...

I have been DM'ing since 1982 (except for my 6 years away from the game in the 90's) and I feel like I am always learning. I have never been satisfied with my DM'ing. The hardest part for me has been keeping up with the changes in the game and in player attitudes towards the game. I have had...

We had probably about 75 this year. It has been getting better as more house have been built in our newer part of the subdivision. The front half of the neighborhood gets hundreds of kids and they set up huge displays and give out hot dogs and stuff. We in the back do not get as many, as...

It was D20 Modern by Stan! and takes place at a homeless shelter where people were being fed for the holiday. It is available here and is called The Final Feast. He has also done a Halloween themed adventure called Blood Sugar that can be found here. DM

We gave up decorating much for Christmas, as it brings too much commercialism to the holiday. We now just observe our familial and cultural traditions. However, with Halloween we usually go all out. We just got finished taking everything down actually. We put it all up this afternoon (as we...

I have been married for over 13 years to a non-gamer. I wish she would try it, but I am glad she tolerates it at least. She had a very sheltered upbringing with a very conservative mother. When we met, she thought gaming was evil. She also thought I was at very least an abberant personality...

X1 - Isle of Dread DM

Thank you all for your condolences. It means a lot. DM

Okay, I am closing in on what I am looking for. I have read through pretty much all of the 3E Ravenloft material I could get my hands on and I have ordered Darkness & Dread. I am re-reading and re-watching as many things in my source list as possible and listening to soundtracks. I have also...

One of my former students, who graduated in 2004, committed suicide last night. I taught him for 4 consecutive years. He played clarinet in my concert band and was in the group that performed at Carnegie Hall in 2004. He was a great kid, socially inept like most of us, but a great kid. He...

DM'ing since 1982. DM

I don't think that the game degenerated BECAUSE of the table rules. I am just saying that if everyone uses common sense and common courtesy, then table rules are not even necessary. My old group did not abide by those things. Players often argued vehemently with each other about small things...

I took a sick day today (I am a high school teacher) to get some sleep and get my car fixed (no heater/defroster/air conditioner fan). It is also the end of my busiest season (marching band) and the first day I could actually afford to miss work. I am going to get some reading done, get the...

I am occasionally a news junkie, but even that gets tiresome. I will check all of the news sites, read the paper, watch news TV on cable, etc. every opportunity I get for a while, then get burned out on it and stop. I do the same with weather. Living in a very hurricane prone area and working...
