I played in a three year OD&D campaign that ended a couple years ago. We had the option to attempt to level up an attribute when our characters gained a level. We picked one, rolled 3d6. If it was higher than the existing score, that attribute went up by one. It worked very well. Rolling 3d6...

Jim Butcher has the werewolves (and Harry Dresden) play D&D in an early Dresden book. Jim Butcher was/is a gamer.

FYI: Lords of Gossamer and Shadow also has powerful NPC's. It expands on many of the Amber game's rules/powers, too.

Player vs player conflict during the final session? I want to hear more.

"D&D Promises: When you use D&D, you will always have fun with your friends." "Always"??? Somebody is stretching the truth there. ;)

Finally captured (wrong) invisible prankster.

Focused, full of data, and not long. Well done. (y)

I used a yellow Crayola crayon container but it wasn't big enough. So I ordered the larger purple one but its top doesn't screw on--the top falls off and my dice just fall out. ☹️

We had four or five regular DM's when 1E was going strong. Everyone moved characters between DM's. Until JF implemented his "kill over half the PC's with unnoticeable traps and no-saves death spells, then give the rest wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too many high level magic items and millions of gold...

This thread reminded me that 4E had some interesting/novel armor. Scroll down to Non-standard masterwork armor: Armor

I was in a group where during the first session our character's were separated in "the sewers" aka "a dungeon." The DM displayed the whole map for us and pointed out where our three separate groups were. One guy didn't like being in his section and said something like "I go left, then right...

A mephit network sounds like a fun idea.

Level 5, interrupted by pandemic lockdown. That campaign appears to be over. The DM is currently running something completely different for most of the same players. But I ran 40+ sessions of Amber Diceless during the lockdown. That campaign finished a couple weeks ago.

Six hours not catching monster. (In person again. Hallelujah!)

What I want to know is "Is it sturdy enough to take with me on a walk around town and maybe smash a few pumpkins with?"

Custard Golem in the upcoming Kobold Press "Tome of Other Beast Things."

DMDavid has an article which talks about the dilemma of killing "evil" races' children here: Strong Moral Dilemmas in D&D and the Unwanted Kind that Keeps Appearing Personally, I don't run or play RPG's to encounter this sort of problem. It just isn't fun for me so I don't put it in the games I...
