Indeed. Where they are though, and how the setting is configured, there isn't that choice. If they were further north perhaps? There is a powerful lich in the cold 'night-side' of the planet that offers deals to those on the verge of freezing to death ala Rime of the Frost Maiden. Here though, a...

I don't know what that dancer is, but I like it.

Somewhat dealing with this currently. It isn't a TPK, but a character inhaled some pretty rough spores. In combat, all they really did was cause them to lose a turn if they failed a con save. Then came an out of combat roll. As described, if they fail this, a plant grows in their lungs, and...

The Black Company - Still hoping for A Pitiless Rain. The Codex Alera Might re-read A Song of Ice and Fire if it ever completes.

You know... while I am loving, LOVING not going on FaceBook anymore. I do unfortunately miss out on things like, people believing vaccines can be 'shed' onto other people. That's like the craziest thing I have heard.

We do chapters, but not really individual sessions. I have some groups of friends where that probably wouldn't work well. lol. Definitely would end up with some titles like: "To bring the fish, or not to bring the fish, that... is the question."

I mean... It is an interesting article, but it ultimately means nothing to me and how I play. If some new comer arrives at my table and asks if it is a Trad or Classic game, I would respond, "This is a D&D table. Here is how I run the games, if it sounds good to you, sit and play with us, if...

I would say any of the movies dealing with Troy. While fuzzy, I admit, they definitely are trying to depict it within a time period. Pathfinder was pretty bad too. While intimidating, I would not want to wear those helmets. Though personally I found the movie cool at the time. Karl Urban...

That last bit delves into consciousness and what makes a person a person. I don't know that anyone has that answer here. I think it would add a perverseness and creepiness to discover that those folks from Barovia you ended up becoming friends with are just shades. Maybe they were real people...

Agreed. I don't even have the vestigial tailbone. I mean... it is nice to be a rung up on the evolutionary path compared to most others, but it doesn't really provide me with anything other than those airs of superiority.

I would probably just allow it to happen with Improved Critical. There isn't much harm in it gamewise.

I wouldn't say it is known to the casual or even somewhat hardcore fanbase. Maybe like... the hardestcore? I certainly never heard of it. Though, I have played in more that one world that was at least some of his creation, and I enjoy them quite a lot. As an example, and probably will be lost...

Agreed. This is mostly why when I world build I never give percentages. What? Are they running a census!?! If you do throw in hard numbers, you best at least look at what they turn out to be.

Oh I don't think I will be betting against it. He has a lot of reach and avenues to promote this thing. Plus, and understand that I do very much like WarCraft and StarCraft so I am biased, I am pretty excited. The art and the potential for a magic like system that gives you power for possible...

What is a classic kind of location?

Ah yes, the Twilight Zone Gremlin. Honestly, he looks pretty huggable to me.

What!?! Puppet Master? Now we are right back to me being confused about this 'classic' horror subgenre. I'm also not buying that all of Ravenloft has been the slow patient horror, and can think of a few campaigns I was in where there was a pretty high body count, or some heavy body horror...

I try my best to be open to change, especially in things that I love. However, Han shot first!

I am liking it. Not sure how much is his influence, but Chris Metzen has always had a flare for presentation. I'll take a look later at what level I may try to back this at.

Okay. I think I understand your use then. You do seem to use it to mean old or of a certain era. To me, some of the werewolf and such films fall under monster films as far as horror goes. I can be talked into classifying vampires into their own subgenre as well. Mummy for sure in broad strokes...
