    carpedavid's Land of the Crane (Updated 11 May, 2006)

    I decided to start it on a whim, and then immediately regretted it when I realized how rusty I am at writing. Fortunatly, I think I can handle short but frequent updates without wearing myself out. *whistles innocently*

    My character's name is getting filtered...

    I've just started a new storyhour over in the story hour forum. It's an OA-type campaign, and all the characters have Japanese names. One character is named "Fu kasu," *without the space* which means, "to steam" and also has connotations of being hot-headed, etc. However, it seems to get...

    carpedavid's Land of the Crane (Updated 11 May, 2006)

    Thanks for the kind comments from everyone so far. I'm going to attempt short but weekly updates (I'm aiming for Thursdays). We'll see how long that lasts :D. Without further ado, this week's update. Kakeru, the Shaman The three heroes set out from the city of Kurosawa equipped with a cart...

    Tell me about "Of Sound Mind" (Spoilers Hopefully)

    I would like to download it, but I can't, for the life of me, find it on DriveThruRPG. Can you provide a link? Please? From what I've read here, I think I may actually run it in the next session of my campaign.

    Introduction All Tanayaran children learn about their relationship with the spirit world at a very early age. They learn about the spirits of the field that encourage the rice to grow, about the spirits of the heavens that bring good health, and about the spirits of the dark realm that cause...

    Players Whining that they Should be able to Buy Magic Items

    Well, technically, 3E does state that they can buy items. In the DMG (at least the 3.0 version - I'm not sure if it's still there in the 3.5 version), there are rules stating what items are available for purchase in different size settlements (based upon expense of the item, etc). The...

    Ceramic DM, and you're invited! (Postponed! See post #117)

    I would have been around yesterday, if it weren't for my stupid DSL crapping out. *grumble* Very late Thursday or anytime after works for me to get ingrediants.

    Monday works for me. In fact, that'd be the best time to get my ingrediants.

    Would you allow this paladin in your game? (new fiction added 11/11/08)

    Actually, to understand the place that "vulgar language" has in history, we have to look at the meaning of the word vulgar - which literally means "common." Much vulgar language is simply the common man's terminology, and takes on negative connotations only through comparison to the language of...

    Anyone used UA's spell point variant?

    We use it, along with the fatigue variant (I don't remember what the official name is), and it's working out well. However, I got rid of all arcane magic in this particular campaign, so it's only being used by a Shaman (from OA) currently. He likes it, and I don't see it as having dramatically...

    Vindictive, fair DMing, or is 3.5 too Lethal ??

    This is true, but he also came here to ask for an analysis of whether the events that transpired were fair, and whether the version of D&D being played had anything to do with the outcome. Fortunatly, I think most of the responses have been fairly constructive in illuminating what mistakes were...

    Vindictive, fair DMing, or is 3.5 too Lethal ??

    Would you still be upset if it had been the dragon that came bursting through the door? A lot of what your complaints seem to revolve around are expectations on your part. You expected that the creatures you were currently fighting weren't a true threat, and that you wouldn't be running into...

    Vindictive, fair DMing, or is 3.5 too Lethal ??

    I've seen a number of people suggest that the EL for the encounter is too high. However, not every encounter is designed to be overcome by combat. Just as in real life, some things are simply too powerful to defeat. Through experience, in general and with a particular gaming group, you'll figure...
