Yay! Chalakassen receives mention on EnWorld! :D Chalakassen is also fond of smiling at inopportune moments, while discussing something morbid (or when being questioned about a waitress from the inn that disappeared mysteriously). He has a constant, unnerving grin and laugh...which is...

And not to worry...the Tarot cards will be collectible, with only one pack in 50 having that elusive Death card...

I'm creating a new campaign world, and would like to provide the players with a calendar. I'm keeping it rather simple, and just replacing the months with other names. So, I'm taking suggestions on names! Obviously, many of the names will probably follow dates with agricultural...

Man...where were you when I was asking for ideas earlier? :) http://www.enworld.org/forums/showthread.php?t=67142 Let us know how the game goes and how the players took to the props!

Thanks for the recommendations! It looks like I have some reading to do. As for forensics, I do have some writers guides at home (including one on body trauma), so I should be set there. But, I'll have to take a look at version 5.5. Hmmm...I wonder if that is available in pdf? I'll have...

--but the mail thing could get creepy to sig others of the players, and they wouldn't care to ever understand why it might matter for the aspect of the game. I'm not too worried about that. My players are my wife, my good friend and his wife (who I've known for years), and another friend who...

Well, my other thread was moved. I'll still check to see if it gets any posts, but I thought I'd start a thread that was more general (and maybe a bit more interesting). I'm contemplating running a short-term horror game (I may even wait until next fall to run it). I'm also tossing around the...

Alright, I'm looking for some suggestions. With Halloween approaching, I've seen a few posts regarding horror games. I had purchased the d20 Call of Cthulhu game a few months back (and promptly ignored it until now). I have NEVER run a horror game, but the idea intrigues me. First, I'd like...

Your friendships shouldn't suffer by introducing a girlfriend. Just treat her fairly, and you'll be fine. If this girl is someone that you are fond of, I see no reason that you should keep her out of gaming. On the contrary, encourage her to try it. You don't have to share all of your...

I've gone through a similiar situation introducing my wife to gaming. She reads voraciously (plenty of scifi and fantasy) and enjoys playing the occasional video game. But, introducing her to roleplaying was a different story entirely. I tried to immerse her in my campaign world, but instead...

Fantasy Campaign Sourcebook and Catacomb Guide - Something that I ALWAYS felt was lacking from the GMG (of all versions) was material about GMing. I found the sourcebook to be helpful (even for experienced GMs). Hackmaster PHB - The idea of a D&D parody kept me away from this little gem for...

Children. Never underestimate the damage caused by a few moments unattended, and a single crayon held within those chubby little fingers!

Traveller T20 is a great system. My only complaint is the lack luster character races (they look like they were inspired by a trip to the city zoo). What I'd do is pull some races from other books (like Alternity) or make up some of your own based on scifi pictures. Then, use the game...

I was on the Kenzerco boards and one poster was talking about running an interesting game combining All Flesh Must Be Eaten and the Zombies board game. Some of it would run like a normal RPG, while some combats would take place in a modified Zombies game. It sounded like a lot of fun.

Thanks Ed. I'll try that, if noone is able to point me to a ready-made background that I can grab (sorry...I'm lazy...so if there is one available, I'm snatching it up). :D

*laugh* Well, that depends on what "reward" you were thinking of. For me, scrounging the local pub is not often conducive to finding someone that I'd actually like to spend time with (and the choices tend to be a bit more limited in a local pub). Pubs are great for drinking and watching the...

I'm making a new campaign world map, and I was hoping that some of my fellow EnWorlders could give me some suggestions. I plan to hand-sketch the map, scan it, and bring it into photoshop. I'm looking for a good background for the map. I don't really need map edges (that's not what I'm...

Well, it might help to think of online dating AS a way to make friends. In fact, many post simply that they are looking for friendship. I checked the EnWorld Member gallery...it seems that you have quite a few pictures in there (and by the number of hits, they're fairly popular with the...

I wasn't picking...honest. I'm not taking this as an argument. I'm just posting because we're discussing a topic that I think I can add something to. :) I was just responding to her comment that: "I've often thought that both men and women who go to dating services come across as needing...

Ugh! Don't say that. We're already been joking about the Crow comparison...Tewligan has been suggesting that his character wear a dark trench coat, paint his face white, and be accompanied by dark, brooding goth music wherever he went... Unfortunately, these are just the sort of comparisons...
