    Shattered Gates of Slaughterguard

    I wanted to pick up one of the latest D&D adventure modules just to see how they were designed and looking currently. (I haven't bought a WotC module since the original series and RttToEE.) I don't usually use adventure modules for anything other than idea starters (and maybe the map with my own...

    I don't make hollow threats :-) How's *that* for boxed text? Quasqueton

    Ghost Rider?

    Just got back from this movie. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I have a couple old (70s) Ghost Rider comics, and I read them again a few weeks ago in "preparation" for this movie. The comics are bad. Very bad. Aweful, really. This movie is a good comic book movie. You can taste the comic book flavor...

    Is RAISE DEAD (etc.) too readily available in most D&D campaigns?

    Amazingly funny, this argument. There are inumerable core ways to die in this game, including many, many magical ways, from low levels to high levels. There are just three* core ways to come back to life, and they all require a mid- to high-level cleric, 5,000, 10,000, or 25,000 gold pieces...

    Box Text

    If this falls off the front page right after I typed all that text in, I'll. . . type in more text, from Time Cube. Don't make me go there. Quasqueton

    Box Text

    Here are some room informations from some classic D&D adventures. If you feel like you can do a good job, write boxed text for these. (All text formatting is from the original work -- I have copied the text verbatim.) Note: "Except where noted otherwise, all underground areas are natural or cut...

    No more than we "overthink" the morals and ethics of imaginary RPG characters. Quasqueton

    Is this a trick question? Like "Are you a god?" Quasqueton

    And they did listen -- they used his statements as an excuse to bail out on Azure City. Hey, come on, face it. The Azure City nobles are :):):):):):):)s. :-) Quasqueton

    That's just the nobles' straw man. They've only offered one possible method of resolving this crisis, and it was to diplomacize with "an inhuman soulless corpse animated by pure evil, who cares for nothing but your complete and total destruction." Quasqueton

    Actually, the war has been brought to their gates -- Hinjo is not "plunging them into" it. Hell, Hinjo didn't know about it till a few hours ago (maybe a day ago). And Xykon has not asked for the McGuffin. He has not communicated with the city at all. It's only Roy's theory that Xykon only...

    Regarding Hinjo's oath and not telling the nobles about the gate: It wouldn't be a good idea to tell the nobles about it, even to get their cooperation in defending it. They've shown their self-centered motivations, and it is quite possible that one or more of them would get the same idea as...

    “My samurai and men-at-arms will join me on my personal ship with as many members of my house as I can fit.” “Indeed! My forces will not participate either!” “May the Twelve Gods forgive you if Azure City falls while under your rule, Hinjo!” Regardless of their possible alignments, they are all...
