the most we've done since having children is to go from 7:00pm to about 4:00 am. That was brutal and, most likely, won't be done again for a long time.

Right back atcha, big daddy. ;)

Currently only 1 other DM in our group. No conflicts, though. He does Star Wars and (occasionally) Call of Cthulu while I concentrate on D&D. Our group used to have 1 other DM, too. He did an alternate D&D campaign as well as Alternity. Again, No real conflicts. I am blessed with a stable...

Sorry to hear that. I'm glad you were with him when they made the injection, though.

I can sympathize with you Doc. It would be my natural inclination to tie up every loose end, too. I woulld argue that you should at least attempt to do it, as long as it does not unduly confuse your players. Good luck.

Rich Baker's "Rana Mor" was by far my favorite dungeon adventure so far. Great location and great villains.

Gahh! I'm the only one who voted for Clark and Bill? Where are all of you Necrophiliacs....I mean Necromaniacs? :)

This place has made me a smarter D20 shopper - I'm able to separate the wheat from the chaff better because of it. I've also found several people who's opinions I respect and whom I enjoy talking with in the threads here. Finally, I've also found at least two people who, were it not for...

I did mean well, and I suppose it depends on the type of person you are. My aunt had a cat for about 14 years that just died. She is already talking about getting another one. I can see your point, too. Perhaps after the sting wears off you'll be ready for another cat. Sorry if I offended you.

Sorry to hear about that, Liquide. Follow your vets advice and put the cat to sleep. No sense keeping an animal in pain. Then go adopt a small kitten from a shelter to take his place.

Diffr'nt strokes, I guess. I just read the series for the first time (I'm 32), Joshua, and I found the writing quite good. I thought the stories were very imaginitive. The "Fortress of the Pearl" dragged a bit, but other than that I thought the series was great.

Well, the Elric saga takes place over a 7 year period, i believe. Moorecock has written other "eternal champions" books, loosely tied to Elric in that they involve a hero that exists in several time periods and worlds - I haven't read any of them yet. He/She is always doomed to lead a nihilistic...

Thanks guys! Ill take a trip over to dragonsfoot, too. :)

While I am convolescing at home, I picked up the Elric! game from Chaosium. I was just wondering what your experiences were with this game. It uses the BRP system that Call of Cthulu uses, so it would seem pretty easy for players to pick up and DM's to manage. Does it effectively capture the...

Thanks, all! ;)

Got back on Tuesday, actually, from my spinal fusion surgery. As I predicted, my doctor thought my back was a mess when he opened me up. Found another disc going the way of the disintegrated one. Still, surgery looked good to him and only time will tell. But actually I feel fairly good. I'm in...

I have the same trouble sometimes. This may or may not work, but what you can try to do is visualize the NPC and attach a mental image of their main feat, special ability, in your head. After you create the NPC, take one minute to visualize him/her, then put an in unmistakable symbol of the...

Actually, just picked up an "Elric" book that I haven't read - "Bane of the Black Sword". Nice and short, about 160 pages. Should be perfect to read in between bout of intense pain and morphine driven euphoria. Thanks again, Dinkeldog, Mark, Quickbeam, Alaric and all the rest of you who are...

"Young man, there's no need to feel down, I said young man, pick your core books off the ground, I said young man 'cause you can't find a chair, There's no need to pull out all of your hair Young man there's a place you can roll I said young man when the tables are full You can play there and...

Inspired by the fantastic "Song of Ice and Fire" series by GRR Martin. King Stannis Baratheon, the one true king of Westeros.
