    What is this Oathbound I keep hearing about?

    I'm ashamed to say I don't know a damned thing about it... can anyone perhaps enlighten me a bit?

    Kenzer's Villain Design Handbook -- how setting specific is it?

    This book sounds really nifty, and a great way to hold out until the Book of Vile Darkness... my question is, how Kalamar-specific is it? I have no Kalamar books at all, or any interest in them, but this book sounds neat... is it worth it to me?

    [OT] I got a new computer!

    Well, look at it like this... my old machine was a 600 Mhz, 256 MB of RAM, 20 GB Hard Drive, 4x Cd-burner, 8x DVD-ROM, Voodoo 3 3500... barely even mediocre by today's standards. So I needed a new machine like a year ago. And yeah, I could have waited for all the nifty newness, but all of that...

    Star Wars d20 – share your experiences! (Please)

    I just finished GMing my first Star Wars "trilogy." It was a ton of fun... I tried my best to follow the outline of the movies (2-3 locales each, fast pace, pulpy feel, second one darker in tone, someone captured at the end of movie two so movie three can start with a rescue, celebratory ending...

    Buying Silver Marches

    I already bought it, before all of this "Crunch vs fluff" started. And I'm also one of those 40 people who bought Lords of Darkness. And you know what, I think they're both great books. I've always liked the Forgotten Realms -- sure, it has its faults (::cough:: Elminster) but all in all it's...

    D&D question: any advice for an 18th level dungeon?

    Ouch... that sounds icky, ashockney. If you wouldn't mind, kick the stats my way when you get a chance... I dunno if I'll use it for sure this weekend or not, but that's nice to have around... the email is fjarome@cis.ysu.edu everyone else: I've done a little thinking on this, and I think I...

    D&D question again: anyone have a guildhouse map?

    ** Like most of my posts, double-posted from rpg.net ** Another thing I need for my Realms game coming up is a map of a guildhouse... doesn't have to be big or have much to it, I'll add all of that. All I need is a general building design (I'm horrible at those)...

    How's this for a D&D villain?

    Looking for opinions on this concept... Elven Necromancer. I know necromancy is against the whole elven "life is good" thing, so I would make him completely insane. Like Joker-level insane. So, how's it sound?

    D&D question: any advice for an 18th level dungeon?

    ** double-posted from RPG.Net ** My Forgotten Realms group has asked for a dungeon crawl for this coming weekend, and I'm drawing a blank... the average party level is 18, how can I make this challenging? I've found a few traps and puzzles from Traps & Treachery and the Book of Challenges that...

    Fine-tuning my FR adventure for this week... help?

    Well, this is kind of the mid-way point of my epic-level game... kind of me testing the waters for more epic-scale things. The PCs are 16th level as all of this goes down... where the end up, who knows?

    Fine-tuning my FR adventure for this week... help?

    I was just kind of looking for opinions on how it sounded, seeing if you had any advice for me to make it better. As for the Shadow Thieves/Council thing, yeah, I know that's how it was before. But I'm restructuring a whole bunch of the Realms in my game... for example, the Shadow Thieves have...

    Fine-tuning my FR adventure for this week... help?

    [ Amn ] * Army of ogres, goblins, kobolds, and other monsters led by ogre mages have taken the southern portions of Amn * The council of six has vanished – 1 is the ogres’ prisoner, 4 are missing, and 1 is “undercover” amongst Amn’s defenders * Amn’s forces lack organization and leadership...

    What's your definition of "epic?"

    So I was having a conversation with one of my players earlier, and we were discussing "epic gaming" and what that means... and in the aftermath of our conversation, I wonder if I'm taking my epic Forgotten Realms campaign in the right directions. So now, I ask you, my distinguished peers, what...

    Need a generic d20 character sheet

    I need a flat-out generic d20 character sheet... I'm working on a homebrew game (mentioned in this thread here http://test.cyberstreet.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=15459) and could really stand to have a generic sheet so that I can maintain the element of surprise over my players... anyone...

    Surfmonkey's genre-busting d20 homebrew -- opinions/ideas needed

    So I just had this brainfart... I've got an idea for a massive homebrew that's everything but the kitchen sink... start the players off with a Call of Cthulhu-designed character (classless)... keep track of their sanity from behind the scenes so they don't think you're using Mythos stuff... soon...
