I think it would depend greatly upon the particular setting you are running, and what the various cultures are like within that setting. For instance my milieu is set in our world, circa 800 AD. However wealth and wealth standards in Ravenna or in Constantinople are very very different...

I name both individual adventures and campaigns, no matter what kind of game it is (fantasy, sic-if, pulp, modern, espionage, wargame, etc). These are some of the best adventures and campaigns I've ever written, and I thought the titles came off pretty good too. The Restoration of...

I'm with you on this one. Whereas I'm no modern bent upon the idea of equality between humans and animals, I am on the other hand very respectful of animals, and the pets and livestock I do have I tend to treat as animal companions. (Not equals, if any animal endangered a human then the...

With a burial, unless the body can't be recovered.

In my setting there are actually two worlds. After the overthrow of the last anti-Pope and the expulsion of the Dragoons (the old Anti-Paladin Guards of the Anti-Pope) the Roman Church moved the papacy back to Rome. Underneath the old cemetery near Vatican Hill is a series of...

This thread is for the discussion of your best and most effective, most dangerous, perhaps even your most terrifying tricks, either as a DM/GM or as a Player. What extremely clever and crafty things have you ever done, what amazing tricks or deceptions have you ever mastered, what...

Actually I use both systems in my D&D setting. A character may be classless if he so desires, or he may take on the modified classes that are normal for my particular setting. He or she may also multiclass or be dual classed, or he may take on particular class skills or even capabilties of...

"No novel does the novel make If made by rote to read, And novelty is all mislaid By long dictated schemes, And how may play if freely cast By writ then undecreed, Grow to flourish great at last If script binds every deed? For man to find his better self He must be free to act, He...

Fascinating Innovation

If Spock were the furry star of his own story then he'd be a Vibble. Then his story would be called, "The Vulcan with Vibbles." thundercats...Thundercats!... THUNDERCATS!! HO!!!

Well spoken.

I think that sometimes a role playing team develops a main character. Or even a leadership team or pair (which could function as a team of main characters). Although I'm not sure this is true in the same sense as is true in literature. To me the "team" is often far more like a military...

I couldn't give ya experience for that but ya did make me laugh.

And if barrel shaped, it could be Dyson Beer! I doubt we'll be investigating any of these bodies up close anytime soon. I was thinking that for SETI though we might be able to develop better search parameters as to where we might aim our efforts. I hadn't even thought of a sci-fi story out...

Interesting astronomical find: Potential Superearths

Fireball. (Or most of the other fire spells.) A standard of the fantasy game. Yet even a child can create fire with a match (most can with a match in a fantasy game as well) in our world, and in additon we have mastered fire to such an incredible extent that we don't even think of it anymore...

You don't hav'ta completely agree of course. I'm listing elements that I consider essential but some of these elements can be considered "situational" and dependent upon the exact nature of the Quest. Some Quests might have different expectations dependent upon the nature of the culture or...

I've been putting together a series of detailed Work Plans revolving around some of the coaching I've been getting. Altering operational methods accordingly. It has really helped re-develop our business. Closed a good contract last week and am now averaging securing one new client per week. On...

Have made some really good progress lately on the Work-Game. Getting put together a real ordered structure and format. Also I've added in things like Harvesting, Livestocking, and Hoarding (Capital and Treasury amassing). I've developed a good set of Work Rewards and Capital stake son...
