    Campaign of DM Cthulu Ftaghn

    After much reading, I've just caught up to the end of this thread. Great stuff, the PC's and NPC's all have really vibrant characters - I wouldn't want to name a favourite because it would shadow the rest, so I won't :D . I played through a little of the Temple a while ago, and all the old...

    What movie is this line from! (Some Movie Spoilers)

    Hmmm... everyone beat me to the other quotes so get this one (Its probably been used in lots of movies, but I'm only thinking of one - so feel free to slap me in the face with a different reference to it)... "Life is pain"

    Dragon size

    Klauth doesn't fight the PC's - they're all around 2nd or 3rd level when they meet him - and yes, he steps on someone and pins him down without trying. I wanted a trigger happy PC talk his way out, not fight (and he did it admirably, although at a cost). Anyway, thats my reasoning and the...

    Any interest in mini-epic comicbook style Story Hour?

    I'll start by saying you might not like this idea for three reasons: 1. Its wasn't run under a d20 system 2. It was run under the White Wolf Aberrant system 3. It hasn't got any swords or dragons, only energy blasts and people in silly suits Having said that, it only ran for something like...

    Dragon size

    The bigger you get beyond the ability of your players to grasp the bigness of the creature, the more cartoonish your critter becomes in thier imagination. Dammnit. He's right. I originally wrote over 200ft long. He is the largest dragon on all of Faerun, so perhaps more, but then again with...

    [Dangerously OT] Who would you choose?

    Okay then... heres mine (and yeah, if death wasn't the limit then Gandhi and Hitler would start fighting over the pizza I'm sure) DM: George R R Martin Fighter: Bruce Campbell Wizard: William H Macy Priest: Leslie Nielsen Rogue: Tim Roth Barbarian: Angelina Jolie Bard: Me Nice choice...

    [Dangerously OT] Who would you choose?

    I asked this to my friends in the middle of a StarWars d20 which had gone incredibly off topic: "If you could take part in a celebrity dungeons and dragons session, who would take part - bearing in mind you can bring anyone in to play." The players must be alive and consist of - - A DM - Six...

    Dragon size

    all we know is that they're bigger than 64 ft. Of course, in 2e, said dragon would be ~250ft. long Having said that, if any of you are familiar with Klauth, what size would you say he is? I'd love to say he's bordering on about 350ft or more, but 200ft seemed safe enough at the time (damn my...

    Ice, Luck and Honour

    Well, Chapter 5 took a little longer to write than expected and I need to run it past a friend who acts as an editor to my atrocious tendancy to rant about glints of swords and the sparkle in a young warriors eye... trims it down from fluff to substance when it needs to be. That aside, the next...

    help with drow character

    I hate to sound like a finnicky role player, but maybe you should think about what the character is, not what his stats are. A little campaign background might help shed light on what sort of character you want to make... [cue OT flow of consciousness] If not, then make the drow a coward...

    Dragon size

    good good. Thought I might get lynched by rule lawyers for saying a dragon was well over 200ft long... It is Klauth though (Forgotten Realms big red one), so i suppose its okay. Just wanted to get across the threat the characters were facing...

    Dragon size

    Hmmmm... okay. Thanks. I've always imagined Dragons that old to be a lot bigger... Anyway - Rule Zero rears its pretty little face...

    Ice, Luck and Honour

    Is anyone waiting for the next chapter or should i give people some time to catch up? Let me know, otherwise I won't have a clue where you guys are up to (and you're the ones who are reading this after all). And I'd hate to put people off by posting too much. Just let me know (either on this...

    Dragon size

    What would you say is the average length (head to tail) of a colossal red dragon? I need a rough estimate to write into a Story Hour. Cheers.

    so young worm -B.A.D.D.

    Wyrmlings wyrmlings wyrmlings... When you reach my venerable age you will understand that these delinquent travellers are not to be concerned with, less so encountered. I try as best I can to keep pace in this age of change, and not wanting to sound ostentatious, but a mention of golems was...

    Playing/GMing the Tragic Hero

    All the players in my campaign are tragic characters. The tragedy of the character will be concreted by his demise - as Furn_Darkside mentioned. Its so important that he doesn't just die, that as he dies so close to his goal, everything crumbles around him. Of course bits and pieces are happy...

    How's this for a D&D villain?

    Righto... what about this: Elven necromancer got cast with some horrible curse spell thing which is slowly rotting over time (could even be leprosy or something simple) - which will eventually kill him... so he goes and finds bodies to replace the withering parts. Tries to pick on criminals...

    Need to come up with a name for a new race...

    Thanks for the replies, That is a good name. Okay, that means a few things have switched round (including morphing most Q's and K's into something else)... so: Race name: Coelocasi Individual name possibilities: Vash'Mathilou, Vashdrenn, Vasht'iss and Apam-Natat (which i think will be some...
