    Help me design the fortress of shadow...

    Absolutely brilliant idea! I have also been thinking of art and art forms - What would a shadow creatures sense of sight/sound/smell touch feel like?(i.e no sense of touch unless made of light hence art might be composed of different spectrums of light. I also have to acknowledge that the idea...

    Help me design the fortress of shadow...

    The design of the fortress should be an appropriate challenge for 13th level PCs. The fortress of shadow is rumored to exist where the demiplane of shadow overlaps the negative material plane. The only access to the fortress is through a city that was created by native denizens (no one knows the...

    Have Your RPG Purchased Dropped Off?

    At one point, in the early days, i was picking up most hard covers and modules. Now i have almost completely stopped picking up any books. There are very few books that interest me as there are already way too many class/options/races books to even bother with - there is a limit to the number of...

    Talislanta...conversions? opinions?

    I was reading through the Talislanta 4th edition book and was amazed by both the game mechanics (which 3e seems to have "borrowed" from in some aspects) and the amazing flavor. it just seemed perfect in that there is no excess of information but just enough to tantalize the imagination. I was...

    Help me design the fortress of shadow...

    The fortress of shadow is in the plane of shadow (exactly as in MOTP). The shadow weave is similar to the "dark side" of the force (there are similar concepts in forgotten realms etc. It is in the center of the shadow "sink" so to speak The current prime was originally a shadow prime material...

    Help me design the fortress of shadow...

    Hey all, The fortress of shadow, only a few know about it. It is a place constructed long ago by the lords of shadow. No one knows much, for few have returned from the dark place. It is rumored that it is the nexus of the dark weave - where those that have embraced the darkness derive their...

    *Grumble* I'm supposed to be good at DMing!

    The epic, mass combat does not work from a player, level because there is just way too much going on with too many NPCs. It is best, from my experience, to roll only where needed. As a DM, the key is to be descriptive and having a mental idea of what is going to happen (if force x is a bit too...

    Problematic player -- HELP!

    Just my take... The issue here is not your friend, but how you are handling the situation. Like others have pointed out, he is NOT a friend if he is not willing to listen to you and is being disruptive (which he is) and he absolutely has no regard or respect for you for whatever reason. The...
