I've always like the flaw system in Champions. The Hero System uses Disadvantages to essentially give character more points to create their character with, at the expense of these flaws. I consider it a fine art to come up with creative Disadvantages that are flavorful, not-debilitating, and...

I once ran a high level game where the party included a wizard and sorcerer. The sorcerer player continually tries to get more out of the rules than they say while also annoying me by casting Dispel Magic on my buffed up bad guys. I apparently made one nerf he did not like because he stopped...

The most ever on one item was the Cthulhu clix I bought at Gencon a few years ago. That was $80 I think. The 2nd most was the AT-AT figure from the Star Wars miniature line at $50. But the interesting part of the whole story was getting the Cthulhu figure home in my luggage. I had to debox...

Maybe an old detective story, like those of Poirot might have an accurate number.

Actually they have released a playtest version of character race builder. So they are not dodging that issue, just took some time for them to develop a system, which is still open to playtest if you go to paizo.com.

Not quite what you want, but I recall an adventure, perhaps even by Paizo, in which monks had become chaotic. Hmm. Maybe it was cannibal monks in the Savage Tide adventure path? Or maybe it was undead monks I'm thinking of... Maybe somebody else will remember.

Was Peter tryng to hook up nerd guy with Olivia?

Heh.

Ah, just reread the paizo post and see they list the River Kingdoms as the sandbox we hopefully would get to play in. Free to play or pay to play?

Something that might add a local touch, states had their own prohibition acts. So for example here in California, rather than being arrested for violating the Prohibition amendment, the purveyors of alcohol would be arrested for violating the Wright Act. Also don't forget patent medicine...

Empyreal sounds cool. Crazy mad exterminator will have to be something for another game. I was reading the other thread http://www.enworld.org/forum/pathfinder-rpg-discussion/313942-have-i-shot-my-character-foot-help-wizard-oracle-build.html and maybe just taking 1 level of druid is ok and...

Although we officially haven't ended the campaign, we recently came to a point where continuing a Warhammer 40k game would require either a vote or some sort of adoption of a common goal for the group. We escaped from the Inquisition for having alien tech in our possession, but in the process...

If I had a job I'd join this. Love the green skinned Orion, er, space women. And using Holst in the trailer is awesome.

Crossbows. Lots of crossbows. I remember trying to defend a town in a short Tunnels and Trolls campaign. We basically played ourselves and we built a catapult. Honestly, while I understand the principles involved, I don't know if we really could have built one. I assume we tried to train...

Yeah, its tricky. Part of the reason I'm looking at the theurge is because for the time being we are restricted to just using the main book. I really want to play the summoner, but can't. Also there is the possibility of dying or another character dying and then we'd probably get to change...

If you are able to get 3rd party stuff, the Green Ronin Secret College of Necromancy has a full 20 level necromancer class. And there are upteen number of 3rd party necro luvin' prestige classes as I recall. One way to control more undead using the core books is with spells. I think there...

The Paradigm website has some free adventures available for download. I'm wondering if anyone has read those and what they think of them.

Has any ENWorlder downloaded these and read them? What did you like?

Sounds familiar. Maybe something from the Scarred Lands? Or I'd try the Tome(s) of Horror by Necromancer Games.

One thing we did with our adventurer guild was implement a system of wergeld. Originally we borrowed the Germanic idea so that if you died off adventuring then your family would get a portion of your treasure. Most of us of course didn't bother describing family members or where they lived. As...
