    Advice for improving as a DM

    Hi All, Let me start with giving you a little background of my gaming and GMing experience. I started playing AD&D in 1981 at the tender age of 11 and from there fell headlong into the Role-Playing world. Most of my friends didn't like to run the games so I became the default DM, and ran games...

    'Origin' of Your User Name

    My sig. is actually my middle name. Thyrkill is an Anglo Saxon ancestor on my mother's side...apparently he was a mighty warrior-chieftan. Unfortunately, my sister got named after another ancestor...Dagmar. She's been bitter ever since :) Matt

    Ok, then ... how WOULD the nine alignments deal with kender?

    Here's how I would see it: Lawful good: The LG person would patiently tolerate the Kender's nature and antics (forgiveness is divine). He would also try to correct and change the Kender's ways, gently admonishing him for his behavior. Neutral good: The NG person would get along with the...

    My game has ended...What next?

    Good point. I'm not really sure what we want to play actually, part of the problem really. My group has been spoiled by the fact that I've been running the game for the whole D20 explosion that no one had considered what to play when mine ended. My particular tastes run to CoC and the science...

    My game has ended...What next?

    I need some advice. I just ended my 2 year long 3E D&D game and now the group is looking for an alternative game. We play every other week and want to continue doing so. And we also want a break from D&D (especially me, at least running it anyway). What I need advice on is, what other game...

    D&D artwork which captures something for you

    The cover to the 1E Player's Handbook...sucked me into the game. All of Jeff Dee's work, especially his module covers and the Elric illustrations in the Dieties and Demigods...he epitomised D&D art for me. Bill Willingham's covers, particularly the Mind Flayer about to suck the guys brains...

    Your Most Embarrassing RPG Moment

    I was in my first major campaign, Temple of Elemental Evil, playing a first level thief (6'8" tall...could hide in his own shadows). As the party is walking towards the moathouse, we are attacked by a giant frog. It swallows our faithful cleric in one gulp so I leapt to the rescue, drawing my...

    (OT) Frustrated after surgery

    Hey, I just had knee surgery on Thursday (menescis tear arthroscapy) and have been laid up in bed all weekend. This was not a problem because I had ordered Oathbound, Books of the Righteous, and the Book of Eldritch Might on Monday...lots to read while I was healing. Well today is Saturday and...

    How to start a Homebrew?

    Hi, I am thinking about starting my own world/campaign. I have been running a FR campaign for the last 2 years and have grown stale/bored. The characters have reached 12th level and I feel like I'm running a video game rather than an RPG. This has pushed me into the direction of Homebrew...

    [OT] What is the best selling beer in your country?

    1. Unfortunately it would be Budweiser or Coors Light :( 2. There are so many microbreweries it's hard to say...Moylan's Kilt Lifter comes to mind. Of the larger breweries, I would say Sam Adams. 3. Guiness followed by a Boddingtons, followed by another Guiness :D Matt

    Talon Comics...What's the deal?

    Hi, I placed an order with Talon Comics almost 2 weeks ago and have heard nothing from him. I have e-mailed him at least twice and no reply. I find this very odd considering my dealings with him before have been excellent. Does anyone on the boards know what is going on? I would really like to...

    Single women gamers

    I must concur with Canis...Dragongirl is most intriguing. As for single girls in my game, none so far. I do have a single gay man though...and you should see the others blush when he flirts with them. Very lewd and entertaining :D Matt

    Dragon Eggs

    Thanks for the fantastic ideas (Kibo's twisted plot is a thing of genius...which I will steal for later):) Now I have more to ponder on for my players than I did before...they are going to hate me. :D Thanks again, Matt

    Dragon Eggs

    I am running an adventure where the party is posing as members of the Cult of the Dragon, trying to purchase 4 Silver Dragon eggs from a Mature Adult Red Dragon (negotiations will be very delicate :). My question is this: How much would Four Silver Dragon eggs cost? I need to set a rough...
