    It's a beautiful baby +2 Vorpal Sword!

    This is one of those ideas that you read and wonder, "What drugs are you on? And can I get some?" But seriously, I don't think that giving birth to magical items is such a great idea, afterall what about when the warrior comes along and wants a Bane Magicaly Creature +50 sword. I think that...

    Who wants to make a new game?

    Well I was thinking, we've created cities, worlds, and settings here on this board. But I've yet to see us create a whole game. So why not now? why limit ourselves to following someone elses rules and regulations on their game when we can create our very own, one that belongs to us? If your...

    Well I had a planned on giving it to one of the player's prior to pitting them against a deadly Mage that will more than likely kill them, thus the reason for the feather, and all players other than the one who holds the feather will be forced to repeat the same action which they took, so...

    French Foreign Legion to Invade Wild West Town (1882)

    Teleporting a portable hole would result in a huge explosion inthe space-time continum, the result would be one big blood smeer over the west where the poor wizard tried to go:D And if the Sarcophagus is immune to magic it might possibly dispell the portable hole when you attempted to place...

    What would you have done?

    The way I deal with these kind of situations is that I adjust the character's alignment, they can start with whatever alignment they choose, but their alignment doesn't determine their actions, their actions determine their alignment, and I work it into future adventures. Its kinda like the...

    Whats this party missing?

    I'd have to suggest some sort of archer, you have melee combat covered well with all characters but no good physical damage given from a range, its all magic and if there is a mob of magic resistant badies come at ya wold be nice to be able to drop a few of them before they get to you. Why not...

    Fellow DM, How do you handle Hit Point at each new level ?

    In my games we reroll all 1s during character creation/development, a 1 isn't a 1 untill your rolling your damage or your d20

    I'm going to dismiss some players.

    Well there is always the killer DM way to get rid of them :D But in all seriousness, you could just let the dice do the talking and have each of them roll and your top 4 rollers stay, that way no one can say that your "Playing favorites" since everyone gets equal opportunity and everyone is...
