Jeans, T-shirt, socks, underwear. My wallet and keys are on the desk about 10 feet away... not that I'd reach for them anyway. If I reached for anything, it would be the battleaxe on the wall behind me. And if I had a minute to grab a few things, I'd be sure to get the shortsword-sized kris...

I would agree, also. The two instances of priests/religious ceremonies I can remember off hand are: The Doom that came to Sarnath: Where the troglodyte-like things dance horribly beneath the gibbous moon. The humans come and kill them and take their idol. Then, the humans are cursed and...

When I created a bunch of ray guns for 1948, I made most, but not all, of them rays. Some of them effect an area,usually a cone, rather than shooting a ray.

I think it has changed a bit in recent years, as WOTC has attempted to change and remain the market leader. Early on, they were targeting mainly gamers. Then a couple of years ago, Mr. Valtera (Sp ??) came on these boards and said "our numbers show that d20 has near total satuation of the...

I've done a lot of one on one games in the past. I would say that they depend a great deal on the chemistry between the DM and the player. As long as they are both on the same page, the game should go well. I've got one player in particular that I love to game with in one on one sessions...

Don't forget wide spread panic over DnD!

I voted 3rd, as that is the bare minimum. However, I'd prefer 5th. In fact, this is something that one of my players and I do once in a while. One of my players has a character that is always 5th level (though he is really the equivalent of a 6th level character). We play with that...

1. PC is wandering through a forest in the fall. The PC is told "it hasn't rained in quite a while and the forest floor is covered with dry leaves." 2. The PC catches on fire (breathed on by a monstrous dragon fly) 3. PC Stops, Drops, and Rolls... in the leaves...

Yeah, several PCs in our games have been middle aged or older. It has got to the point that if anyone starts a new game with an aged character, we assume he's some sort of spell caster, which is why I'm thinking of creating an aged knight who is a little senile.

I agree. I wouldn't have reminded them of the scroll, its their job to think of things like that. I also think that if I were playing in a game where that happened, I'd be wary just at the signs. After all, the players were warned with a clue previously that said "Haste makes Waste." When I...

Crushing your enemies is best. Without enemies, you can do almost anything.

When running a homebrew, I usually start with a situation or motive for an antagonist. I really like strange or surprising circumstances to kick off an adventure. Something like "You finish you meal at the tavern and are walking out into the street when you see an expensive carriage suddenly...

Cyborg Cowboys riding robotic dinosaurs Vs Mutant Monkey Ninga Pirates riding on giant steampunk Airships that fly high above a sea of Zombies.

The first games I ran were homebrews. The first module I DMed was probably Quest for the Heart Stone... but I don't really remember.

pcs die when the dice say they do.

The one thing that I really like about Lightning Bolt is that it hits targets in a narrow line. This has proved useful in games more times than I can count.

:D I always like to pretend they are a slalom course. I know a few gamers in the area around K-town, but they play Star Wars, not DnD. If you check around the UT campus, you'll probably find some sort of student organization or something.

Sooo... you live in Engalnd? Can you bring your bike inside? That's what one of my friends does. Keep us posted on what your neighbour says when he sees the rubbish out front. I love the smell of roasted vermin on Guy Fawkes Day! ;)

I give them larger point buys and, since they are full classes, rather than NPC classes, they get more feats and abilities. NPC characters with PC classes have the same feats and abilities. I also allow max HP at first level, and I encourage average hp every level after that. NPCs and...
