    Looking for a class...

    This looks like a swanky idea. The DM will have to approve it, but I bet it won't be a problem. sweet.

    Looking for a class...

    My friend is running a monster game. Due to the racial bonuses of some creatures, and the momentary lapse in sanity when it came to rolling, we have some really outrageous stats for some of our characters. One person in the group is a very casual gamer. She has fun when she plays, and while...

    Huzzah for babies! I heart tiny people. My neighbors just had their tiny person, and he's adorable, too.

    How do you pronounce "Tser" ..?

    Hold the tip of your tonuge against the front of your hard palate like you're going to START to say T, but then say S instead. t-seer.

    Yes, you have to!

    I think that a lot of it has to do with her being a strong woman. She's beautiful, (In my opinion, yours may vary), but she's not as skinny and delicate as your average (often blonde) starlet. She's got some muscle on her. You're more likely to see pictures of her in Africa with her kids than...

    Do number of posts matter to you?

    It depends. I the postcount is REALLY low, say only a couple dozen, I might take what they have to say with a grain of salt, mostly because I don't know anything about their opinions or how they think. Someone with a large postcount I don't jude by the numbers, but if it's really high I...

    Help me capture my PCs

    Divide and conquor. A large party as guests in a manse aren't likely to all be sleeping in the same room. Bring enough guards to make an encounter for each roomful of PCs. Some thoughts: -You don't need to worry about the arrest looking contrived. It IS contrived. They're being framed...

    Would you play your game here?

    In theory, yes, I would. In practice, there is such a long list of "ifs" that the conditions would probably never be met. I would pay for a gaming space IF: -None of the people in my group had a space suitable to host. -It was conveinantly located. -The space itself would have to be clean...

    Druids

    I heart druids! I played a druid for a couple of years in one campaign. The things I found for that character: I couldn't fight in melee. I didn't have a great strength or many hit points, and my AC sucked. Part of that dealt with the rest of the party, though. The cleric had a 30+ AC, and...

    MINIS! Where do you buy yours?

    Amazon. They're a little bit cheaper than retail, and shipping is free when the order is more than $25. I spend my tip change on them. Y'see, coinstar charges a fee to count coins if you return them for cash, but NOT if you get amazon gift cards. I roll my silver change, but when I've...

    what do you do

    I'm a barista, which is a fancy way of saying I work in a coffee shop. Caribou Coffee, to be exact. I make good drinks. sometimes I can make little designs on a latte like you see on tv, though I can't pour roses and leaves yet. I'm an amatuer artist, and I work with my best friend on a...

    How do you like your gnomes best?

    After looking at my race list, I decided to cut the gnomes. I have a lot of other races and figured that halflings filled the small niche. I decided to turn gnomes into an NPC race. My idea was a cross between tinkers, garden gnomes and the creatures in faerie tales described as brownies or...

    alignment question using the proverbian paladin (again)

    In order for an act to be a sin, the person must INTEND it to be a sin. Sinning is knowing and willful wrongdoing. If the paladin is trying to do good, and the result is bad, the act wasn't a sin. It was a Bad Idea. Your God cares about what's going on in your shiny paladin heart, not if you...

    Trading commodities in D&D

    Arms and Equipment Guide is full of nifty goods. I think someof the items designed to give skill bonuses are kind of silly, but I like all the lists of fabrics, alcohols, spices and exotic foodstuffs. Depending on where the ship is shipping to, I imagine that the easiest goods to get involved...

    What parts of world-building do you hate most?

    I like thinking about most parts of worldbuilding, but I don't like DOING a lot of them. Mostly because I get bogged down in details. I like details, but I get this feeling of "But once this whatever is included in the world, it's fixed, so I better make sure to do it right." That leaves me...

    What would you say to Orlando Bloom?

    I would probably stare as I tried to compose my thoughts. Then I would WANT to say something simple, sane and collected, such as "I enjoy your work." In order to not go fangirl on him, I probably would limit myself to "Hi," and nod, and walk on. Then perhaps squee a little bit to myself...

    Friday the 13th - come share horror stories of bad luck!

    I was going to take a friend to one of my favorite restaurants. We got there at seven thirty, and it was closed, even though the sign said it should have been open til nine.

    Lawful society v. Chaotic PCs

    Were a citizen of the town cause a public disturbance, I think an appropirate punishment would a fine (which the poor would have to pay in labor) and possibly an unpleasant but not particularly harsh physical punishment, such as a short stint in the stocks. And of course payment for any damages...

    Roleplaying Playlists

    We play with music, and the host makes the playlists from all kinds of sources. A lot of it is from the soundtracks of movies or games. I find that instrumental is best, and when making playlists I look for the soundtracks to period movies. Anything with a huge thundering choir singing...

    Ever run a high level party through a low level module?

    This makes me think of my desire to pit my players with a handful of allies against hordes of lesser opponents in a strategic environment. ...can you guess that I've seen 300 twice since it opened? Man, that's an awesome movie.
