    When Do You (GM) Kill PCs?

    I don't kill characters as a rule, but that's the confluence (ooh, new big word!) of several aspects of my play style. 1. I play a game where the characters are tied to the plot, both through my actions (your brother needs help with the Baromars again; your father is being brought back as a...

    Will you bee seing Doom?

    There's a 1.50 theater in Topeka? Sweet! I've been bumming ever since the one here in Larry closed down. Where is it at? Oh, and just to remain on topic, uh, yeah, I'll probably see it in the theater. I'm ticked that Rock killed WWE by leaving, but not enough to not support him in the...

    Tell me about Terry`s Goodkind books.

    I used to read all the Goodkind books, up until Faith of the Fallen. While I'm not a "low-brow" reader by any means, I don't get that into the whys and wherefores of fantasy. Cool is more important to me. And the first few books were cool, if you could ignore the juvenile "morality" lessons...

    AMusing character death

    No need for house rules. There's a chance of hitting either person when swinging into a grapple. Wow. I just corrected Hypersmurf on rules. I must be a rules god!

    Where's the weirdest place you've ever found YOUR name?

    So, I'm wondering, have you ever seen your name on something that had nothing to do with you? Pop can, billboard, etc.? First off, I'm Skyler Slifer. Most of my friends call me "Sky". A pretty rare name, if I do say so myself. Well, a friends little daughter got a Yu-gi-oh card as a door...

    The Secret Scion - accepting alternates

    Hmm. Sounds interesting. Nathaniel d'Orien grew up on the fringes of the last war, carrying dispatches and other mail on the rail with his father. He loved the travel, seeing a different city everyday. Whether it was sipping wine with the noble mages of Aundair, singing the hymms of the...

    Eberron: Stone of Sorrows (OCC)NEED ONE MORE see last post

    Oooh, I want in on this. Do you still have any openings? I was thinking a Paladin or a Psychic warrior, using the drow chain. Would either of those fit with what you have planned? If not, a Fighter/bard. Female Qu'llann looks like it's the only one left open. I was thinking of a young...

    The 4400 - Season Premiere

    I just finished watching the premier. I have to admit, I nearly cried like a little girl when I heard that they were making another season. I loved it. Except for the baby. Every scene she figured prominently in, I was more interested in the stitching on my chair than the TV. Eh, I figure...

    When did gnomes fall from grace?

    I could never think of a cool way to spin gnomes, so I never used one in a D&D game. But Eberron did them good. Backstabbing little shucks have my party absolutely loathing Trolanport. But until then, I'd say gnomes couldn't fall any further.

    [Eberron] Adventuring in the Realm of the Dead

    Ok, my group is heading to the realm of the dead to rescue a pc's father. Anyone have any ideas as to what kind of encounters would be in there? The pc's father died in the Mourning, so I was thinking that they would have to make their way through a twisted reflection of the real world...

    Stocking up on cheap magic

    I think I go the exact opposite route of most people here. Instead of looking for ways to prevent my players from stocking up on cure light wands, I encourage it. I do this for two reasons. One, the core rules make it a small matter to have a lot of cure light wands, for people like...

    I need help with politics!

    I need some advice that will help me run a political style adventure. Right now, the players own an inn in Sharn, have the ear of the Keeper of the Flame (Eberron), and have control of a thieves' guild in Sharn. Plots I'm working on right now... Warforged "bandits" are ransacking the...

    Inkjet printers with expiration dates???

    About once a year, I spend $30 at walmart to buy a cheap Lexmark printer. It breaks in a year, reliably, but I figure it's only thirty bucks. I spend that much on a weekend at the movies. Or a new gaming book. Lexmark Z515. A truly disposable printer.

    Forgotten Realms Novels...which ones are good?

    Gotta second Elaine Cunningham's books, especially the Elfsong line. I liked the Shade books, but I can't remember who they're by. Avoid any Elminster books like the plague. Couldn't stand em.

    What's your Best Gimmick?

    You know, I read this as Kids in the Hall for some reason. Just gives a whole 'nother spin to the idea, eh?

    Power attack and double weapons

    Not if you're wielding it as a double weapon. One hand funtions as a normal attack (full bonus to strength), and the other end functions as an off-hand weapon (half bonus to strength).
