Here's some conversions I've done. The first two files are bringing Gaslight into d20 (really, all that needed done was the addition of some new occupations) and the last is a conversion of the adventure "Eyes of a Stranger", from Sacraments of Evil. The Perception thing is a houserule. I...

"Not a thing, m'lady," the pirate says. "Not beyond showing up in a port where the local lord's put a death sentence on your head." He grins, showing a gap-filled row of teeth. "The way's on a beach near the citadel. A tunnel which comes out in the dungeons under the fortress. That's where...

Acting purely on instinct, William hurls himself towards one of the walls and grabs the first weapon that meets his eye. Brandishing the... whatever it is, he spins to face the door.

The figure approaches the group from the woods, emerging slowly, his hood revealing the features of a young man in his early 20s, blond and gaunt. He shies away from the twisted caliban, extending his hands palms upwards to show that he has no quarrel with you. He reaches out tentatively and...

Longtree nods. "Yes, Baron, one would think that. I'm sure I'm not overstepping any boundaries by saying that, to my knowledge, there would be only two sources that could completely block a police investigation, and those two would be either Parliament or the upper crust of the military...

(( OOC/Davechan: Yeah, I'll allow that roll. Post the results here and I'll let you know. Just bumping for now: a more substantial reply will come once I get the check result. ))

Good concepts. Sometimes, I think, if the author has a really good idea, it can show through and make that author shine despite any "technical" problems. Lovecraft certainly fell into the trap of overusing florid adjectives like "non-Euclidean", "cyclopean", "Stygian", etc. Sometimes, to be...

Pompeii by Richard Harris, I think? Forget the author's name off the top of my head. I only just started it today. Next up is most likely either Shadows Linger, the second Black Company book, or Stonehenge by Bernard Cornwell if my dad's done with it.

"The Wookiees have no love of the Sith," Barrick says, "not in my experience, anyway. I have never known one of those folk to serve evil. Master, I believe our caution was unwarranted. Though, of course, certainly not ill-advised."

As Soulsong calls out to the figure, it runs towards where Lamar sits. Lamar: Apparently oblivious of your presence, as the figure approaches, you can make out the features of a young man -- he can't be more than 20 -- blond, gaunt, and exceptionally pale-skinned. He looks every bit like the...

Skimmer grins at the dwarf's words and inclines his head towards Moon's Brand. "Captain Kazan's due to be executed on the morrow. But," he casts his head back towards the men, "the others ain't be knowin' this. If'n ye want to be kind and gentle souls and spring 'im, or if'n ye want to just...

If I get my hand free: The zombie behind the door attempting to escape, William hurls himself after the others as quickly as he can. "I would imagine that searching for the knife is straight out," he remarks to Jack, making light of an otherwise grim -- and unnatural -- situation. If I don't...

"The innocent must be protected," Caide says in response to the 'halfling'. "Truly, what manner of men would we be if we were held in thrall by the creatures of the night?" He casts a sideways glance at the newcomer as he glances down into the stream and hurtles down after Vecis.

"Fine, then," says Longtree. "Nothing to do now but wait for our answers." The next morning (if no one's got any particular actions for overnight)... The day dawns clear and bright in Avebury, and you take small comfort in the realization that the world is unchanged and life goes on as normal...

(in the ship) Barrick nods at Master Kanas' words. "Where you lead, I will, follow, Master," he says, his jowls quivering. "But you are right to be cautious." (in the village) "I certainly hope they are being truthful, Master. I don't know if I can handle another fight. I don't know if my...

What is the HTML code to break free from frames? My website is framed, and when you click on a hyperlink on my links page, my side frame with the menu is still present. How do I make it go?

"Phauugh!" William braces his foot against the door and jerks his arm free of the zombie's grip, unmindful of any wounds this may cause. Once free, he runs at full speed to catch up to Jack, Jibril and Father O'Malley.

I assume the Black Company RPG from Green Ronin has spoilers for the series? I'm only just finishing the first book, and if it has a lot of spoilers I should probably finish the series before I pick it up. Or does it not?

"Phauggh!" William shouts as the dead hand closes on his arm. He attempts to worm his arm out of its grasp, using his other hand to help lever it out if necessary. ((OOC: Gomez, my link to the Rogue's Gallery broke during the server move, I guess, so I've posted my actions only. I think a...

Barrick is sleeping seated in a chair in the ship's navigation room. If someone came in, they might not think he was resting properly, but he was comfortable enough. He awoke suddenly to hear Master Kanas jogging down the hallway and calling to Aerek. He went to the door of the nav room and...
