    Sex, Sexuality, and Sexual Attitudes

Indeed, the Buffy Game seems to *drip* with sexuality...and adolescent angst!:) Sounds like it was fun, and interesting!:lol: Have you run the Buffy Game often? Is it a good system?

    Sex, Sexuality, and Sexual Attitudes

    Greetings! SEX. Yes, sex is often a volatile and controversial topic--as well as often seemingly trivial, irrelevant, and frivolous. However, it seems to me that--at least in my experience, many mature players that are sincerely interested in the campaign world and the immersion of their...

    On the matter of half-orcs

    Greetings! In general, I entirely agree. Excellent post! However--help me out here. I guess I am not quite getting what the bruhaha is with people that insist that rape in the game be...roleplayed?--or are opponents of such vociferously opposed to even mentioning rape, or having rape included...

    On the matter of half-orcs

    Greetings! Well, I'm not quite sure why whatever minimally-flavoured race text supplied in the PHB is seemingly regarded as so authoritative in regards to the origins, culture, and society of any particular race open to player characters and NPC's alike. Don't most DM's tweak and fit such...

    Seven Principles of Dynamic Temples

    Greetings! Hello, my friend!:) Well, I originally created the *Seven Principles of Dynamic Temples* as a kind of template from which I could use to quickly get a grasp on any given temple encountered. Essentially a series of questions from which I could be sure to remain conscious of as I...

    Seven Principles of Dynamic Temples

    Greetings! *LAUGHS* Thanks, my friend! I'm glad you like them. Well, as for the unusual names of the patron deities...well, I kept the male deities within the theme of flavoured animals, and the female deities having a theme of emotional fruits.;) I supplied them as a generic kind of template...

    Campaign Assumptions!

    Greetings! Remathillis, I love this.;) Yeah, I can imagine how *forcing* lots of medieval prejudices and conventions upon players--especially females--could potentially result in "less fun". However, in one of my campaigns, I actually ran with a number of medieval campaign assumptions for...

    Seven Principles of Dynamic Temples

    Greetings! Well, here is an example of a small group of dynamic temples located in a small, dirty, impoverished medieval town.;) Each of these temples are small, and support a staff of perhaps a few dozen clerics and initiates each. None of the temples are wealthy, and all live in simple...

    Campaign Assumptions!

    Greetings! Wow.:) Well, while I am quite familiar with Cultural Anthropology and theories of materialism (the "Structure" at the base; materialism of primal needs and resource management, in doing what works the best and most efficiently is ultimately largely irresistable by the culture...

    Magical Applications to the Campaign Milieu

    Greetings! Well, very good then. However, are you implying that the player-characters are the rare bunch of spellcasters and such, and that such spell-casters are therefore extremely rare, if not virtually unavailable to the rest of society? Semper Fidelis, SHARK

    Campaign Assumptions!

    Greetings! You make some excellent points, Pawsplay!:) However--while it seems to me that certainly there were aspects of Medieval society that were advanced--even some that were superior advancements over what the ancients had achieved in Antiquity--overall, much of Medieval society was...
