    Mars d20 - Science Romance/Barsoomness

    Just saw this on Adamant's site. (note: I'm not affiliated in any way with Adamant... just looks cool and has the author of Iron Lords of Jupiter which I enjoyed to no end... ) Work has begun on a product that we're really excited about: MARS D20 will be a D20 setting, usable with any D20...

    [Grim Tales] Slavelords Of Cydonia [full]

    Final: T. Rawley Sutton The son of a rancher, T. Rawley's strength of character and mind have kept him alive more times than he can count. As a cavalry soldier, he found that his seemingly innate understanding of people won him fast friends (and sometimes mortal enemies). T. Rawley took sick...

    [Grim Tales] Slavelords Of Cydonia [full]

    T. Rawley Sutton Alright. Almost done. I just lack one feat. Any suggestions? I was leaning toward Mounted Shot, but I think I want one that's more in line with is 'new life.' NOTES: I bumped DEX with the picture bonus. I noted the Empathy bonus with skills but didn't add it in since it's...

    [Grim Tales] Slavelords Of Cydonia [full]

    Streetwise is cool. I guess if the GM doesn't think we're too specialized, I guess we're good. Or ripe for the killing... I can't tell which.

    [Grim Tales] Slavelords Of Cydonia [full]

    So, to keep myself straight, here's the current group and how we break out skills-wise. Do we overlap nicely or are we too specialized as a group? Just checking what everyone thinks, because I can make a different character to fill a niche, if we need it. We don't have a tinkerer/Nemo type and...

    [Grim Tales] Slavelords Of Cydonia [full]

    T. Rawley Sutton So, here's more of the bones. I'll have a mostly completed build tonight (late your time): Dedicated 3 S: 8 D: 13 C: 12 I: 14 W: 15 Ch: 10 Talents: Empathy and Intuition Profession: writer (newspaperman) Craft: (still thinking - maybe writing, maybe engineering)...

    [Grim Tales] Slavelords Of Cydonia [full]

    No sweat on flexibility. This is just the first character that popped into my head. I guess I tend to think of a person backwards from that. Their history and how it shaped them. For some reason, I always see their history first, then their personality. T. Rawley is mentally tenacious...able...

    [Grim Tales] Slavelords Of Cydonia [full]

    Okay, here's my idea for a character. Lemme know if this is Grim enough... and I'll build him out. T. Rawley Sutton (Terrance - He punches people that call him Terrance) Profession: Newspaper Coorespondent History: Cattlehand, soldier, college, newspaperman. Began his life on his parents' New...

    Wulf, Do you want us to post concepts/characters here, or ship them directly to you?

    [GRIM TALES] For GT regulars: Have you read Slavelords?

    Edit: And to answer your question... I'm usually declared an a$$head for my belief that market forces should affect all markets, but I find a deal online, typically, and buy whatever I'm looking for there. I love my local game store for three things: Actually browsing a book before I buy to...

    Eberron ... with Grim Tales?

    I've played only a few games of Eberron, but, like Wulf, I dug pretty deep into the main rulebook for the the Big Fiction Con...uh...contest. I think Heap has a point that GT and Eberron are born of the same mother. So, there are definite ways to do things between the two systems that could give...

    Converting Dark•Matter's "Exit 23" into Delta Green

    I just sent it. I didn't mention the aftermath in the actual adventure, but essentially the characters get approached by <insert Delta Green org here> immediately after exiting the Wal-Mart and get either recruited or apprehended. Any left-over arcane junk is confiscated either way. The...

    Converting Dark•Matter's "Exit 23" into Delta Green

    I developed and ran an Exit 23 rip-off set in a Wal-Mart. Instead of the winter-demon and Hoffman stuff, I used a Delta Green org, an anti-Delta org and Mythos-style monster. The size of the Wal-Mart gave me a lot of 'interaction' scenes with various insane patrons that were trapped in the store...

    How Horrible do you like your Horror? How Crazy your Cthulhu?

    I prefer something in between Hellboy and UA when running or playing a horror game. I subscribe to the notion that your hero should be kicked in the teeth over and over until he cries: I'm fed up and I'm not gonna take it anymore! The dark cloud of doom, insanity, and death should hang over...
