    Piratecat ruined my D&D game

    I want a group of adventurers that stick together and survive for long periods of time. I want stories and plots to unfold over grand times. I want a bad guy the PCs fought at 3rd level to come back to haunt them at 12th level. I want plots that the PCs first saw back at 5th level to be resolved...

    What's up with the ending to Vault of the Drow?

    Bump, in hopes of Plane Sailing answer my question. Quasqueton

    What's gonna happen with Miko?

    Who was in the throne room during the trial? Who knows about the Snarl? Miko was out fighting Belkar at the time, right? So she still has no idea of the "greater good" Shojo was trying -- she doesn't know why her "analysis" was wrong, or why the gods disapprove. Quasqueton

    What's up with the ending to Vault of the Drow?

    Plane Sailing, how did you introduce replacement characters for those two lost in the adventure? Quasqueton

    X & Y - the RPG

    The poll thread on how much do you like dungeons, got me thinking on this. Not a few people dislike, or do not like much, dungeons. Kind of made me think they are ignoring the "dungeons" of Dungeons & Dragons. Maybe they should call their game "City & Dragons". Or "Wilderness & Dragons". But...

    How much do you want dungeon crawls?

    I whole-heartedly agree. Quasqueton

    How much do you want dungeon crawls?

    Attack the enemy base? Like invading the hill giant steading, or the fort on Bone Hill -- dungeon. If you mean like a siege scenario -- not a dungeon. Go to the village and defeat the orcs -- not a dungeon. Quasqueton

    Solitude - beastial or divine?

    "He who delights in solitude is either a wild beast or a god." -- Sir Francis Bacon [via loki44's sig] Do you delight in solitude? If so, are you a wild beast or a god? Quasqueton

    How much do you want dungeon crawls?

    For this poll and discussion, a “dungeon” is any kind of site-based adventure – not necessarily an underground cave complex, but a place somehow separated from the rest of the campaign world. It could be a large haunted mansion, a secluded forest garden, a fortress in the clouds, or, of course...

    What makes a Monty Haul Game?

    I can't believe I said that. I really hate it when some jackass quotes a perfectly valid point/advice and replies with a completely worthless piece of trivia that only undermines the point/advice. Very sorry. Quasqueton

    What should have been included in 1E's UA that wasn't in there?

    Like I said, I was open to changing my mind. It is changed. The book was apparently not conceived as I thought it was. I won't think of it so harshly in that regard anymore. Quasqueton

    Star Wars Naming Game

    Back in July, when one Player couldn't make our regular D&D game night, another Player offered to run a one-shot Star Wars d6 adventure. We made characters -- I made a wookiee. After discussing the naming weirdness (Chewbacca can't pronounce his own name), I went with a joke name -- "Harry" (as...

    What should have been included in 1E's UA that wasn't in there?

    My comments here are going from memory only (I have UA on my book shelf, but haven't read it recently). Some of the things that cracked me up about the barbarian: He hates magic so much he can detect it 10% of the time. A magic-user, who works 24/7 with magic, can't do that. And then as the...

    OotS 404 is up

    I don’t doubt that Rich has such gags already figured out well before he starts the set up. If I happen to predict the gag/outcome, I’ll assume it’s because he and I (and many others) have a similar sense of humor – I won’t claim to be the originator of the gag/outcome (ie. that he took it from...

    What should have been included in 1E's UA that wasn't in there?

    What material in Unearthed Arcana was not created personally by Gygax? I think the demi-human gods were created by Roger Moore (was he credited?; I don’t remember right now), but was anything else in the book created by someone other than Gygax? Gygax’s name was the only one on the cover of the...

    OotS 404 is up

    Something just came to me: Isn't the illusionary Belkar in the anti-magic cells? Illusion magic in anti-magic cell? How much you wanna bet that Sabine's true fiendish form is not the sexy chick with horns and wings? I can just picture Nale's shock to find out she's a big bubba-type he-fiend...

    Childhood Apraxia of Speech

    It’s not just the therapist’s word (and her word will not be the last). My wife is a nurse by education, training, and pre-mom career (mostly pediatrics and maternity) -- she’s a stay at home mom, now, since our first child (now 6 years). And we have other medical professionals in the family...
