    3) Darla (for all the backstory on the Darla, and Angel) 2) Redefinition (Angel is wicked cool in this one) 1) Epiphany (Angel reborn with a purpose, I've always seen this as a major turning point in the series)

    Warcraft RPG...any good?

    I have long enjoyed Warcraft (played 2, 3, frozen throne, and now WoW) and have greatly enjoyed the RPG books. Though I have never run a Warcraft game it is one of the few campaign settings I'd ever consider using aside from my own. Warcraft has also helped me evolve my idea of Orcs, changing...

    Ages of empires when elves are around?

    What is ancient and what is not differs depending on the race you are talking to... think of it like B.C. and A.D. For humans the "Rising of the Waters", which happened when the High Elf spells controlling the worlds climate broke down, represents the change from old-ancient. ~2800 years ago...

    How do you organize your Home Brew?

    I've oganized mine based on the usualy chapters in an RPG book, with each chapter (races, spells, feats, lands, ect...) being a seperate Word file. Every few months I update a binder that i have with the new chapters, the binder also has space at the end where my handwritten notes are stored...

    % of encounters from the MM?

    I use very few creatures from the monster manual. There are quite a few orcs, ogers, undead and such IMC; but those are very far removed from their core counterparts.

    In-Game vs. Real Life Passage of Time

    Actual game time time is one session = one week. between adventure blocks a year or more can pass: "Ok, having returned the princesses soul to her body you set off again. your travles take you to the Valish Sea, where you are employed as a guard on a merchant ship. In service to the captain...

    Afterlife in Dungeons and Dragons

    going from the standard cosmology it is a bad thing to die... regardless of how good (or bad) you are your soul is devoured by the plane your god inhabits, which doesnt seem to make worship of the gods very appealing (and makes lichhood very very apealing). IMC not even the mortal gods know...

    Prophecy in D&D

    Another good one (an idea I have used myself) is that individual prophecies are spread across several books. i.e. To decipher the prophecy that tells of the fall of Kingdom X you need books 3, 5, and 11. This can lead to interesting plot twists: with books 3 and 11 it appears that the...

    Hyperion Series by D. Simmons -- Why no name for the Consul?

    His grandfather never refered to him in the book, and his aide always called him Sir. I dont know what it means, and franlkly I never thought about it much. but its through his eyes that the interludes between the tales is seen.

    Hyperion Series by D. Simmons -- Why no name for the Consul?

    remember that where he went was always outside the WorldWeb, so he had to travle by hawking drive. He had a lot of time debt (though not as much as the poet), I dont remember how long it was exactly but i think it was over 20 years. Thus he was probably not that well known by the current...

    Hyperion Series by D. Simmons -- Why no name for the Consul?

    Probably because he couldnt think of a good name I'd question how well known he was, he always seemed to be more of a backroom dealer then a front line tyep (remember how he was the one who sold New Bessad the torchships so they could provoke the Ousters. Not even the Col. knew about that)...

    Powerful people vs high-level characters

    It depends on the nature of the character. If the king is a decadent fop who spends his days debauching the local maidens then hes not going to be very high level. If said king is a brilliant general known for winning against impossible odds then hes going to have some serious levels. As a...

    Hyperion Series by D. Simmons -- Why no name for the Consul?

    He was always an outsider, he hated the Hegemony with a passion few could match and he tried to use his position to destroy it. Not only that but everyone knew he was a traitor, they used him as a double agent, each side knowing that he would betray them.

    How do you like mixing different settings?

    I've always liked mixing different settings, its how my homebrew got started (Ravenloft rules with Warhammer fluff). As long as your players know whats going on then it should be alright. Tell them right off the bat that things may be familiar to settings they know, but that they sould assume...
