That kinda reminds me of a Vampire: The Masquerade game I played in in college where the set up was essentially that the PCs were the Frog Brothers from The Lost Boys. We spent 2 or 3 game nights discovering that there was a secret throng of vampires hidden in the city. All the signs were...

NYTMARE'S TOP FIVE FAVORITE SOCIAL DEDUCTION BOARD GAMES The Resistance / Avalon - This is my top pick due to the amount of complexity and depth of play it manages to squeeze in with the fewest number of rules. All of the joy and sorrow of Werewolf or Mafia without having to have one player...

Looks like the guy running the first game where I was introduced to adamantine either misread something, or homebrewed it. I've been spreading bad info for 20 or 30 years. I've birthed a whole subculture of nerds out here who think that adamantine is an iridescent, nearly black, emerald green...

Isn't adamantine a green Underdark crystal? Not adamantium the miracle Marvel metal (can a rust monster still rust stainless steel?). Or did they end up switching it because everyone kept confusing the two anyways. Beyond that, I'd argue that an adamantine skeleton is going to be pretty hit...

I am in no way calling you out on this, I just figured I'd throw out a couple names for people who might not have ever run into them: Exalted - http://theonyxpath.com/category/worlds/exalted/ Necessary Evil (Savage Lands) - https://www.peginc.com/product-category/necessary-evil/

Oh wow! I have no idea? I don't remember how I stumbled on to this.

I had meant argued by their defense, which would be handled by Celebrim, the GM. It sounds like that boat has sailed already. I thought that the discussion had been the GM asking for people to help him think through the process of "what makes sense for the NPC police and legal teams to do...

Celebrim, what game is this happening in? I started off reading this as a real world metaphor for something happening in a fantasy game, but now I'm not sure. Beyond that, and playing as devil's advocate, would the players be able to convincingly argue why they needed to go to such violent...

I'm going to cheat and list four games because I bought two of them at the same time. The Skeletons - Bully Pulpit Games, Jason Morningstar - Described by the author as a "meditative" RPG. Players play the part of animated skeletons defending a tomb, and incorporates several periods of quietly...

<storytime> There was an old "portal-esque" rpg I had played in when I was in college. I don't remember how much of it might have been published vs how much of it was the guy running the game(s) making stuff up, but he had had a (kinda silly in retrospect) set of real life tests that he would...

Three Swords for the Elven-kings under the sky, Seven for the Dwarf-lords in halls of stone, Nine for Mortal Men, doomed to die.

I had always been told that the TV show didn't reference the game, but either the comics, or the old D&D choose your own adventure stories made mention of D&D being a game back in the real world. Has anyone here read any of them?

Nerdwriter recently did a video on a tangential topic to this, from the vantage point of "time travel" stories. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqlgf_q3nN4

I like this idea, but I don't know if I'd want it shuffled in to D&D. At least with out similarly themed mechanics mirroring this elsewhere in the design space.

It's been a while since I've played the other editions, but was there a version of Clone where the clones weren't inert, non-sentient, magic, meat-puppets that just sat quietly and waited for the original to die before they sprang to life? I'm confused by all the discussion regarding them...

The choice is way easier to make if lich has just been a typo this entire time.

Any idea what the people who were asking for one were hoping that it would be used for?

I'm guessing the trick is to hide your clone vats in a bag of holding and make the bag of holding your buddy's phylactery.

Yeah, it's a chat room with lots of bells an whistles. Great for real time conversations, much less useful for in depth discussions and reference. Wasn't there an Enworld irc or chat feature at some point? If that still exists, you should be able to interface the two of them so that a...
