My shipboard adventures have generally been the most successful when the ship was in the background. The PCs were generally on hand and on deck, at the center of the battle for boarding actions and the like but not directly controlling the ship. In fact, my most memorable games with ships have...

I played the human fighter from the Mentzer Red Box solo adventure. :D After playing through the solo adventure a dozen times or so, I took that same character, named him Duke (after the G.I. Joe character) and played him in my step-brother's version of the Isle of Dread with a couple of his...

Happiness shared by the editing Monkey. :D

Please excuse the interruption... In case you've been wondering what Monkey has been up to... Secrets of Divine Channeling is my first roleplaying industry credit (I'm the editor). Please consider adding it to your PDF collection. :D And spread the word. ;)

Yet another list favorited. :D Minor note, the release year on these two items... Van Richten's Guide to the Walking Dead (February 2002) Ravenloft Gazetteer: Volume III (April 2002) Should be 2003 I believe.

Yeah, sorry about that. :blush: Crazy Monkey (still lurking around from time to time and with a sixth sense for when his name comes up). ;)

In my current campaign (3.5) and setting, views on magic vary by culture. Most human wizards believe magic is a tool and use it and study it like a science. Most elves believe it is the spiritual energy of life and revere it like humans revere deities. Both beliefs have a bit of truth to them...

Red Box and DM's Kit. Red Box not because he's a beginner necessarily but because those two products together should give him all the tools he needs to teach others and bring more of his friends into the hobby.

Many apologies to all and sundry for popping back in and then popping right back out again. I'm out of the PbP business for the long term, so don't wait for me. Have fun and good gaming.

This list includes all 3.0 and 3.5 (including Eberron and FR) products published by Wizards of the Coast, as well as licensed Dragonlance products published by Sovereign Press and Margaret Weis Productions. Because I'm a little too lazy right now to edit them out, it also includes D20 Modern...

Update: Looks like my hiatus is going to be a bit on the indefinate side. Many apologies to Myth, Holy Man, and my Silverdale players. See my latest Musing at the Asylum for more details.

I wouldn't mind going through the Dragonlance modules with either 2nd edition or 3.5. I'd even enjoy using the pregen characters. :D Sign me up for Tanis or maybe even Sturm.

Update: I should be back in action, more or less, on Monday. Myth and Holy Man, I'll be getting my characters put together over this coming week. Silverdale players, look for an update on Tuesday. Tuesday will be my regular update day for Silverdale from now on.

Right, templates don't provide BAB or hit points, etc. Generally speaking, they can't be taken as your first class level, you have to take a "normal" class level at 1st level. The best way to take on a high LA template class is to intersperse the levels between regular class levels. In other...

Taking some time off from the online world to sort out my priorities in the real world. Once that's done, I'll be re-integrating back into online endeavors slowly and may drop a few here and there. Myth and Holy Man, since I don't actually have characters submitted to your new games yet, feel...

Myth, regarding your template progression, templates do not provide BAB, HD, base saves, skill points, etc, unless specifically spelled out in the template. Thus, any "levels" in a template class are what I call "empty levels" in that they provide only special abilties and no other benefits of...

My preferences... Starting Level: 1 Ability Scores: 32 Point Buy Backgrounds: I'm all for shared background. Maybe we're all the former experiments and/or pets of a now dead or otherwise missing wizard.

A fantasy monster RPG designed for 3.5 or Pathfinder or possibly even 4E that takes a dozen or critters out of the Monster Manual/Bestiary and makes them fully playable alongside standard characters. And not just things like kobolds, goblins, and orcs, but medusas, beholders, dragons, demons...

If Voda Vosa goes with his wizard's mind trapped in a flesh golem's body concept then I'll probably go with something else. Maybe a male Succubus to give the group a face character. :D

PM me your e-mail again, please? I don't have it on file.
