Excellent! Happy to hear that.

We have a Hyundai Kia Kona, my daughter drives a Bolt. We have both been very pleased with the cars performance and endurance. Charge fears are a real thing, once you get to 25% charge you get very nervous about station location and distance home. Even if getting home is well within current...

It works for me. I have as a background "Former Apprentice", they have a connection with a trades guild, but since they became an adventurer there is a little friction with the past master. However, adventurers are a highly valuable resource. Should they continue a relationship with the guild a...

I, too, try to go for a roughly two page reference doc. It mentions some common knowledge, deities, political power structure, wizard's guilds. I have a 20 page section of the rule book where the religions and deities are in more detail. I have a map for where things are, rivers and roads for...

Dark Matter was the first show I watched and said to myself "I wonder if this was inspired from a Traveller campaign?" It's also one of the examples, along with the others mentioned, of what a possible campaign could be. (Although, I never had the opportunity to watch Lexx. Mostly a topic of...

I vacillate between the potency of volcanoes (magma) or the vast utility and cultural weight of metalworking and the forge (metal). Interesting idea! I've leaned into clay as a "source" of wood, flesh, and growing things, however. This comes from ooze being useless to me, clay having cultural...

Not sure what you mean. Not the first really, but I'm fine with the second. I've started moving towards more para-elementals as I feel the classical elements are over-done for me. But, I absolutely agree that they need some jazz. 2000 years of tradition and lore is hard to replace. I've gone...

No. This is mythic, not scientific.

If Water gets cold Earth usually gets acid. I reverse it myself, as Earth lends stability and solidity it contribute to cold, whereas Water, being know for erosion and infiltration, gains acid.

Like what? I mean, there is life observable there. There are a number of creatures whose senses extend into the Ethereal plane. Spectral undead exist partially there, or nearly wholly in the case of ghosts. You can easily see into the material plane and the life that exists there, but it isn't...

Well, there aren't any, really. The issue I have with that is that the Ethereal plane has always been, well, ethereal. There's little substance to it. A lot of potential, perhaps, but the native life tends to be mental predators that peer into material planes. There are some intelligent...

My "current" group has been running for about 18 years or so. However, only my son has been through most of the iterations. A particular person lasts about 6 months to 8 years or so. People move, friends get busy or fall out, some are a poor fit for your style of game. There's a young couple...

True, although I choose the Prime because the jotnar are natural or elemental entities. Midgard was created from and walled off from Jotunheim, the giants pushed back due to the actions of the Aesir. It seemed to be accepted that you could walk there if you knew the way. I can easily picture...

You run out of arrows at some point, so sure.

I figured the roots would extend into the "material planes", the Fey, Shadow, and Prime planes. The branches would allow travel to the fantastical outer planes.

Ha! If he can laugh about that, particularly the name, that bodes well for his mental health. Yeah there aren't many that could survive. Jack Churchill fought with a saber on D-Day and has the last recorded kill with a longbow in wartime (France in WWII). There's a number of other people I...

That is fascinating! And, an excellent situation that could be adapted; it's a great example of how two good aligned churches could come into conflict. "We're going to raid this church for the relics. The saint wants to move, but it is of the utmost importance that we don't hurt anyone!"

As a general note, I have never in > 25 years of Medicine ever referred to people with substance abuse issues as "befuddled". Rather impaired, drunk, intoxicated, obtunded, delirious, altered and occasionally as unfortunate. Nor, for that matter, have I ever referred to people with cognitive...

I use "Ascended", which has the implication of being bodily assumed into Paradise. This is rather rare, naturally, but is an immediate mark of divine favor.
