    It is October,let's talk about the supernatural.

    Interesting. I thought a thread like this would actually generate some decent replies and discussion of experiences that people had that could be interpreted as supernatural in nature. I have seen or heard many things that I cannot explain... may or may not be supernatural, but definitely not...

    Woo-hoo! Heroes of Horror preview!!

    What? Let me guess, the Warlock ducked and the Scout backed up, failed to find it the second time either and walked into it again. DM

    See my "Wierd Stuff Happening" thread in this forum. I have the same problem, but if I clean out my cookies every 2-3 days, it seems to solve the problem. DM

    How fast do your characters advance in level?

    While I am an old-school DM and prefer slower levelling, I have left it as per the RAW for this campaign. My players are We game once per week for about 4-6 hours. In my first two 3E campaigns, the PC's gained about a level per month. In the current game, we started in January, quit for about...

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

    Do I know you? Yes, the other PC's called him "Mittens the Mighty Archer." Hmmmmm... DM

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

    I had a player who played a Human Ranger who hates ALL Wizards. He is okay with Sorcerers, but HATES Wizards. His opinion is that the study of dark tomes has opened them to evil influences and corrupted their souls. His first action the night he was introduced? Kill the two Wizards (one PC...

    Weird stuff happening...

    I have had some issues viewing ENWORLD lately. One morning when I checked the boards, it showed that nobody had posted anything for more than 24 hours. The next time I cam back, still nothing new twelve hours later. Now, when I look at the General RPG forum, I will see a thread on the first...

    How many ENWorlders does it take to change a light bulb

    So, what was better, first edition lightbulbs, second edition lightbulbs or third edition lightbulbs? By the way, when do the fourth edition lightbulbs come out? If they ever reprint the lightbulb source book, they should sell the rights back to Edison because he really got screwed over back...

    Custom Adventures? (Inspired by the Underdark Thread)

    Obviously, it would have to be more expensive than an off-the-shelf published adventure or campaign to make it worthwhile. I will use an example from work again: If I wanted to use a marching show that was off-the-shelf commercially published, it would cost about $50 per song for four songs...

    Custom Adventures? (Inspired by the Underdark Thread)

    I was reading the thread where the original poster was searching for Underdark adventures in a certain style, with parameters regarding creatures encountered (ie. no Drow) and locations of interest that would preferably be included. This led me to the next step. First, I must say that I am a...

    Looking for Underdark Adventures...

    That's the one. There is also The Harrowing (3E, Dungeon) that starts in the underdark and works into the Demonweb. DM

    Looking for Underdark Adventures...

    I don't really care for this one so much. When I think about Desmodus I just keep equating them to Gungans. I am SURE I would make them sound like Jar Jar if I ran them, so I will spare my players that experience. DM

    Bad DM stories

    I have probably posted mine here before, so I will do the short versions: 1.) The reason I almost ALWAYS DM: I was only about 11 or 12 years old and learning to DM. I had recently run my first session and one of my 2 players was DM'ing a few days later. He was an experienced DM and about 2...

    Large Group Campaigns

    I run a game for 7 players. I know that at least 1 will be missing most sessions and average attendance is 5 players. We will still game if 3 of them show up. If they leave a character sheet, someone else runs the PC and they have equal chance of death and XP. If they choose not to leave...

    Looking for Underdark Adventures...

    I suggest Necromancer Games' Vault of Larin Karr, the Sahdows Over Istivin Campaign Arc (especially the third adventure), Queen of Lies by Monte Cook, or the D series from 1E. Also there was an excellent 2E (IIRC) adventure in Dungeon called "King of the Ghouls" (again, IIRC). DM

    Minorities & D&D/RPGs

    I have only known one african-american gamer, but have gamed with 3 Asians, countless females and people from many religious or non-religious backgrounds. I think the social spread of the game, beginning with mid-western whites, has limited the diversity some, but that it is increasing as the...

    Dying vehicle - Rant

    I almost posted a "car trouble" rant this past week. We are a one car family. It is inconvenient sometimes, but all we can afford. Over the summer, our car developed some "interesting" shifting patterns, so I had the transmission serviced. It got better for a time, then came back again. The...

    Hubcap sandwiches & other misconceptions

    Heh. I thought I was the only puh-sway-dough dragon DM. I had a player back in the early 80's for whom English was his second language (he was from the Phillipines and was still learning English) who wanted to play a "Monkey" so he could make unarmed attacks. DM

    Best Love Songs (and "your" songs)

    The first song my now wife and I danced to was Eric Clapton's "Wonderful Tonight." The first dance at our wedding was Marc Cohn's "True Companion." DM
