    Nearly laid low by a goblin...

    and as to Gobbos having class levels...well as a DM I love the idea. One group I ran for encountered my goblin barbarian with the vampire template. Those were the days...

    Nearly laid low by a goblin...

    I was under no illusions that my one whole fighter level would make me invincible in a fight. I just needed to balance the tables a little bit. I mean I wasn't even doing as well as the halfling scout (who has a tendancy to run from a fight, leaving me and the pure fighter). They got the drop...

    Nearly laid low by a goblin...

    Yeah, well...we didn't want it floating up somewhere where it could be noticed. We figured if we went deep enough, something with nasty teeth and an appetite to match would clean up the mess for us. I guess it isn't too bad. At least it wasn't a kobold...;)

    Nearly laid low by a goblin...

    I hate goblins. I hate 'em, hate 'em, hate 'em! I'm playing a 4th level beguiler/1st level fighter. I dipped into fighter because we are short a player, and I'm not as able in a fight to stand back and use my spells as often. Sometimes I have to get in and mix it up, and my attack bonus was...

    Gaming with the kids ...

    It may not be well known, but there are a few of us trying to usher in the next generation. My eight year old son Luke is back in Drogo's shoes (as I posted a couple months ago). We've been playing a lot of alternate games, including several sessions of a d20 modern game. Now were are in...

    Eureka, who is that guy?

    That's usually the case: I'll recognize someone, not know why, and when I finally do find out, I'll be floored. OTOH, I've not been too impressed with this guy. *shrugs* It mainly was not being able to place him.

    Eureka, who is that guy?

    Finally found him, had to use google-fu with a little TV Guide mastery. He's Saul Rubinek, and knowing which name to look up I was able to find out that he's played small parts in lots of shows I've watched, but I've managed to miss most of his movies. Thank you anyway, everyone.

    Eureka, who is that guy?

    All right, I'm calling on all of my geek friends and guru's here. I know I've seen tonites guest somewhere, but my imdb-fu has failed. It's driving me up the wall, who is he? He's playing the scientist who was working on cellular regeneration. Help!

    Inspiration for my next Hirst Arts Project - please help!

    Hm... somewhere I have a tower map I made up. I think it would fit your size limits if done in 3D, though it might just take up the limits of it. It was an old wizards tower, and its since changed hands a few times. Someone got ahold of it at one point and put in new overns in the basement...

    [WEIRD] Knights of Cydonia video

    Well, three things come to mind: 1) I love the song, that was awesom, and I'm inspired now to look more into it. 2) The video sucked. As a video. 3) doesn't the video on the other hand look like one of those cheesy sci-fi movies that are destined to be classics...(like, say Ice Pirates?)

    Now I Caught A Player Cheating Today....

    Hey now, I've had that happen. For months I didn't realise that the d20 one of my players was using (which came from my 'community bowl') was actually a double 10. It exlained why he kept getting so frustrated...

    A project I've been working on...

    Greetings all. With apologies to everyone who hoped that I would return and continue telling of Ghostsea, I've been trying to get back into the habit of writing. The last regular writing I did was back in December-January, around the time I stopped posting Ghostsea stories. I had just...

    Artistic Conundrum

    I've always been of the opinion that symbols for merchants guilds, or the adventurers guild, etc. would be very obvious to any and all as a form of identification for the illiterate. Shadowy organizations, however, might use symbols that aren't terribly obvious. Small, and discrete, and hard...

    My son, Drogo

    I don't know about simplifying it much. Kid's sharp as a tack. Besides he's the second noob in the group, so I've been toning things down for a while anyway (the other rookie had never even heard of RPG's before I met him). On the other hand, I may have to rethink my plans to send them to...

    Player schticks that grind your gears

    I'm beginning to think a lot of you would enjoy playing in my games. Heck, as DM, I'm lucky if I can remember all the details of the last session, let alone penalize my players for it. (I tend to wing it a lot, so my prepared notes only go so far.) On the other hand, more than one of these...
