    Story help for my campaign, my players stay out.

    Please don't include so much detail next time. There's just too much there to wade through. ;) Uh, is this D&D? L5R? Is it SF, or an Asian setting? What?

    Best book (any kind) for Samurai setting?

    I take it that is the book referenced in the film "Ghost Dog: Way of the Samurai"? If so, I own it. Great film, BTW, if you haven't seen it.

    Eberron pronunciation...

    I've never heard it pronounced any way other than the second one. Now, if you want to haul out your Kalamar materials, I'll show you true horror... :uhoh:

    Best book (any kind) for Samurai setting?

    Can be any kind of book: novel, history text, game book (any system), you name it. Looking for fluff, not crunch. Best one would be short - I don't want to spend a year researching the period. And it should show various groups operating at the time, their sources of conflict, and thus, provide...

    Thousand Year Dream

    Cool! For inspiration, watch: Nightmare on Elm Street (1 & 3 - especially when she brings back Freddie's hat), Dreamscape, The Cell. The characters have an artifact (the Orb of Morpheus) that allows them to "lucid dream". The kicker is, sometimes they are just in someone's dream other times...

    Thousand Year Dream

    That bastard stole my campaign! :mad: Seriously. My BBEG brings things back from "dream" realms into the real world to aid his takeover. For the longest time, my players thought he was just using his imagination to find these places, and that the things were literally dreams made real. They...

    Very weird NPC Request. Anime familiarity a plus

    Ok. Understand that I am currently running a campaign that originally was in D&D 3.5, and is now Savage Worlds. It is possibly the weirdest combination of... things I have heard of, but, it's been running over a year, so, someone likes it. ;) Anyway... 2 cat-like humanoids. Not tigers, not...

    Painting and Using Miniatures or Not?

    Can't really imagine gaming without minis. Except Burning Wheel, but that would be threadjacking. Long, long ago, in the days of lead, I painted. Badly. I got a little better, and stopped spraying with gloss :eek: Found a guy to learn some more painting techniques from. Painted some more...

    Funny PC names

    Know you, now, in a time before 2nd Edition, a legend was born. A player created his first dwarf character. Up until this auspicious time, he had never played a dwarf. His DM (me), chastised him for unoriginal names, and encouraged this player to come up with an original, memorable name. And he...

    Great stuff, guys and gals! Thanks for all the input, and for any still to come. Love this place, I really do. :)

    What traits would your Ultimate Space Opera setting have?

    What traits would your Ultimate Space Opera setting have? Not Hard SF, not fantasy, not Star Wars. A high-adventure setting you could really enjoy playing in. Independent of mechanics. What would it contain? What's important? What would be left out?

    What keeps you from going to GenCon?

    I'm much more afraid of Pern-ites... :uhoh:

    EnWorlders at Origins?

    Too bad there wasn't a ribbon or something we could wear to spot enworlders at a distance. Would be handy for a couple of reasons ;)

    what other animals wold you allow a first level druid?

    Waah! :( But seriously, I always thought a "large" (as in not tiny) spider would make for a rather interesting variation. I don't think I've ever seen anyone do that. (Man, that's gonna leave a mark ;) )

    what other animals wold you allow a first level druid?

    A sheep, because even a druid deserves love.

    Ever played the intro to DnD game at Wizards?

    Eek! And here I just wanted Thora Birch to do a nude scene. Ah, well. :uhoh:
