    Novels about Megadungeon Exploration

    I never finished the novel "Queen of the Demonweb Pits" by Paul Kidd, but maybe it has a mega-dungeon in it? There is no particular reason I've never finished other than having to prioritize reading and research, but maybe I'll finish it sometime next year.

    Help me get this cleric Rolling

    Welcome to ENworld! There is a subforum for 3E stuff now, so while the general forum gets a broader range of posters, the people who probably know what you want are more likely to be able to help in the subforum. It looks to me like you've pretty much got your character figured out...

    Worst game I ever ran.

    Snipped a bunch of stuff, but thanks RangerWickett for playing along. I thought this was going to be a thread about peoples worst games.

    Let the adventure path-ing begin!

    With my STAP experience, I have an opposite opinion. The STAP starts in a city with all these interesting locations, but after the 2nd adventure you pretty much leave the city. Our DM wanted to give us more stuff to do inside the city and so we had some side adventures in the gladiatorial...

    Tell Me of Your Annual Halloween Game!

    Today was our pre-Halloween game day and we tried to play some games with a matching theme. Shadow Hunters and Elder Sign were played and maybe something else, I forget. Oh yeah, Last Night on Earth. We thought about playing a huge mash up with the Martian invaders also, but had 1 too many...

    Iconic 1st level monsters?

    I don't know why the word xvart is so fun to say, but XVARTS! Of the monsters listed, green slime, carrions crawlers and ghouls are the scariest in my mind.

    Let the adventure path-ing begin!

    Well, here's what you might expect, based on my time playing the Savage Tide. I've played other parts of Paizo AP's too, but none as far as STAP. Lots of grappling monsters. Encounters designed to challenge a well built party which might lead to deaths versus a party of story-driven...

    Investigation/Mystery Adventures

    I was keeping my post short because I'm lazy, but I do see how you can want to play an honest to goodness mystery. Unfortunately, when I think about it, it seems I remember all the puzzles and things that just ate up our time and didn't work out. Like the mirror-candle puzzle room in part 4 of...

    the Dungeon Menu?

    In game role playing wise it kinda depends on the game. Almost never does food come into center focus and then it might for a special occasion like attending a party thrown by the nobles or maybe because the party is in the desert and has limited access, usually as low level characters, to food...

    WAR is good for great fantasy art in our RPG books.

    I need some interesting dice recipes

    I'm a little confused. Are the numbers you propose the only visible side of the dice, since they are set within the non-opaque slab of soap? I like the idea of naming certain sets, but unless you customize all sides of a dice, I'm obviously missing something.

    I need a replacement dungeon.

    grodog mentioned the Tomb of Abysthor which I would recommend. Another adventure with a dungeon and story that I like is Aerie of the Crow God by Goodman Games. The outside portion of course might need to be changed or skipped, since you have to make your way up to the lighthouse, but the...

    Investigation/Mystery Adventures

    Several months ago a friend ran a mystery one-shot using a new system. I didn't play because of a conflict, but I talked to another friend about how it went. Unfortunately he didn't have much good to say about it, but we talked a little about why mysteries are difficult and how to overcome the...

    Birthday celebration games?

    Happy Birthday! For me, once I was 21, birthdays were meaningless, but even before that I was not inclined to celebrate. My mom tries to make a big deal out of them but that just annoys me.

    What are the new 'Classics'?

    Pathfinder is so new I don't consider anything classic yet, but going on my experience... The first Paizo modules, the earlier the better, may become classics. For me, the Seven Swords of Sin will get there only because I played in the dungeon delve at Gencon where they had that dungeon...

    Review of Heroes of Neverwinter (Facebook App) by Atari

    I like the game. I like that there is no aggro and it is simplified. The only complaint I have is the lack of interaction between PC and NPC or player to player, but that's why table top RPGing will always be my favorite.

    Game Prep on a Pizza Box!

    My friend Monte recycles envelopes for his games. He's drawn maps on them and uses them for notes during the game. I've even adapted that myself, though just taking notes when playing computer games or when I need a reminder or a number or name for a library book. Using a pizza box is...

    Tell Me of Your Annual Halloween Game!

    I've never ran or played in an annual holiday game. I've learned from trying multiple times that my previous gaming friends would not bother to play a New Year's Eve game or anything close to "lets squeeze one more game session in" before whatever event. They saw our gathering as an...

    Halloween Costume -- drow or blackface

    I was the the archive of the local museum digging through documents several months ago when the curator and a board member pulled out a picture and started talking about it and asked me if the picture should be put up for display. It was the local theater company in the turn of the 19/20th...
