    WotBS Bonus Time's Burning Sky

    Pardon me if I missed it, but did you have an earlier thread that introduced the PCs? If you're just doing this for yourself to keep records, feel free to ignore me.

    David Lynch: RIP and Ranked (A Celebration)

    I kinda disliked Twin Peaks: The Return. I liked Fire Walk With Me best of any of the Lynch stuff I've seen, which proved he could do Twin Peaks and have an interesting tone without Mark Frost. But The Return just lacked verve. It was one note, and that note was unsettling. Like, I get it, I...

    WotBS RStiv's Burning Sky

    Can you draw the map at a "1 square = 30 ft" scale?

    WotBS Fuzzybear's Burning Sky

    I admit to starting off a little lost from the pause since the last update, but a quick reread refreshed my memory. I was not involved in Under the Eye of the Tempest due to scheduling stuff, so I wonder whether the boss fights in this one will actually be challenging. :D

    D&D General Running a Monster Hunter style protracted hunt and staged battle against a dragon

    Those are amazing. Hiding in carvings is awesome! Okay. Now how to design the battle map? Hmm.

    D&D General Running a Monster Hunter style protracted hunt and staged battle against a dragon

    I want to have a dungeon crawl with a series of encounters against a singular dragon, where the party first spots evidence of its presence and its powers, then encounters it somewhere they have the option to flee because it's mostly invulnerable to their attacks initially, but then they find a...

    ZEITGEIST Calliope’s Zeitgeist [WILL HAVE FULL SPOILERS FOR THE ADVENTURE PATH]

    The Ob is pretty compartmentalized, and most of its members are canny enough to maintain operational security, so if he'd worked with, say, Caius Bergeron before (maybe been the one to recruit him), when suddenly this deva shows up, Caius would have a moment of recognition, and he might probe...

    WotBS Bonus Time's Burning Sky

    I love the details in the politicking.

    WotBS RStiv's Burning Sky

    I think you're using the word MacGuffin to mean something else than I'm used to. The campaign does have an NPC in most adventures who are aligned with the party in interest and can provide information. You don't need to keep them, though. Torrent is a link to the resistance because the...

    ZEITGEIST a few Demonocracy questions

    I just woke up, but that sounds cool. Um, thematically or like ideologically, I might distinguish the primary timeline industry from the alternate timeline industry by saying that the demonocracy Would have more one-off inventions, rather than like modern industrial production lines, maybe...

    ZEITGEIST a few Demonocracy questions

    ZEITGEIST was not explicitly situated in the standard D&D multiverse cosmos. You can put it there if you want, and thus have Baator and such, or you can have it be in another thematically-similar multiverse. I think that, per EN Publishing, the Level Up product line posits a version of the...

    D&D General Let's make the upper planes playable!

    Plots that take place in a world that's perfectly good are hard. But the elemental plane of fire isn't fire in every square inch. It's fire-themed, but there's still air and earth and even a bit of water. So I'm fine with the good alignment planes being a solid representation of that...

    ZEITGEIST Cypherblade's Zeitgeist campaign

    Easiest thing would be that he's caught up in the Dreaming, and sometimes gets pulled there, either like interplanar narcolepsy, or as a result of some pact or curse. If the campaign seems to have legs, maybe some time in the gap between adventure 5 and 6, while the main party is running down...

    D&D Movie/TV BG3: Youtube AI 1980s Dark Fantasy Movie

    It's impressive how close to the in-game designs they managed to get the copyright infringement machine to look. But the actual Baldur's Gate 3 - which was the work of hundreds of people who earned a living from their labor - looks better.

    Level Up (A5E) What is living on the food and "souls" put in extradimensional spaces?

    Ah, this is getting my brain working. Okay, thank you.

    D&D General Best dungeons?

    What is it about The Forge of Fury that stands out, in your opinion?

    D&D General Best dungeons?

    Being as broad as possible, what's the best dungeon you've experienced - published or home-brewed? Was it the ambience? The peril? The game design? The storyline? For me, the best published dungeon I've played was book one of the Pathfinder Strange Aeons adventure path, where you wake up with...

    D&D General I have a week to plan a consequential dungeon

    My campaign is coming to an end in a few weeks, and one of the players has been itching for a while to have a good dungeon crawl, with maps and traps and puzzles and monsters. The campaign has had a fair bit of role-playing in the form of scheming and politicking, and the climax will probably...

    Gate Pass Gazette What’s In Gate Pass Gazette Annual 2024?

    I'm sure there'll be a proofread pass, but I noticed the table of contents has a couple typos. Botanotechnitian (should probably be technician with a C) Tinkerr Crowssbower (unless it's some pun where you shoot crows from your crossbow) Darting SHadow Javelinier I think should be javelineer...
