    We are all ugly and alone...

    Belen is being very modest. I won't go into details about the "pleasant actions" that were assigned to the d20, but let's just say if he rolled a 1, he got a chaste kiss and if he rolled a 20 he got AHEM... a romantic crit. :lol:

    We are all ugly and alone...

    Darn tootin'! Of course, I'm a librarian who works with digital information rather than books, so I am both a nerd and a computer geek. :lol:

    Faux pas - putting your worst foot forward

    I've got many embarassing moments (as Belen will gladly attest), but a funny one was a couple weeks ago. Belen and I were out at a restaurant eating dinner and discussing what we planned to do that evening when we got home: read, watch TV, etc... Well, I suddenly remembered something we needed...

    Guess What?! NC Game Day VIII is September 10th!

    My game is now up on the NC Game Day website. Thanks, Rel! The blurb appears below. : "You are a member of an elite party of adventurers retained by King Telamond of Scotia to apprehend criminals who pose a threat to the crown. Lady Alifax is just such a criminal. She uses local peasants as...

    Help! I'm a Paladin and my goddess is dead

    Mara is getting worshipped vicariously through Sune.... I suspected as much out-of-character. But, in character, I will need irrefutable evidence before my Paladin abandons her life-long beliefs and worships another goddess!

    Help! I'm a Paladin and my goddess is dead

    Thank you all for your excellent advice! Based on your various replies, my course of action will be as follows: 1) Continue to worship Sune, in the hopes that her death has not yet occurred and that I will be able to stop it. 2) At the same time I'll do a lot of investigating about Sune. This...

    Help! I'm a Paladin and my goddess is dead

    I have a unique situation, and I'm hoping you all can offer me advice. I am currently playing a gnomish Paladin of the FR goddess Sune in a D&D game. For those who don't know of Sune, she is commonly regarded as a shallow goddess reveling in love, beauty and the finer things in life. Anyhow, my...

    Gaming and your Significant Other

    Yes I do! I first started gaming to spend time with Belen and learn about his interests. However, that quickly changed when I realized how much fun I was having. I fell in love with the whole concept of D&D and now I play for the love of the game and not for the love of the husband ;)

    NC Game Day VII - April 23!

    I know I don't post that much, but I did want to let everone know that I had a blast at the Game Day yesterday. The Pirate game was a lot of fun with lots of rum quotes and "Arghs!" thrown in for good measure. I also had a real blast in the round robin session. We had a coherent storyline...

    North Carolina Game Day VI: January 29

    After a rather nasty typo, my King Arthur game is now scheduled. As Belen_Umeria thought, the game was NOT intended to be 9 hours. It will run for 4 hours (9am - 1pm). The game will be primarily Dungeons & Dragons 3.5 with a splash of "Relics and Rituals: Excalibur" thrown in. There are 5 slots...

    I just GMed my 3 year old for the first time!

    Rel, it looks like your daughter has been blessed with a big imagination and a great dad. While reading the thread, I was reminded of this game my brother and I used to play when we were kids. (This was about 12 years before my introduction to D&D, by the way.) One of us would start to tell a...

    Role-playing a Background

    It sounds like a great idea to me, but it is ultimately up to your players. If they're all cool with it, then go for it! Oddly enough, I just thought of a similar idea a couple days ago. I have a player in my group who LOVES to role play. In between sessions, he often asks if he can do a little...

    What makes you happy as a DM

    As a newcomer to the role of DM, here are a few things that make me happy while running a campaign: 1.) When I'm roleplaying a hilarious situation with my players while struggling to keep a straight face the whole time. 2.) When a player gets so immersed in their character that I find it...

    Yes, well... I tweaked history a little to better fit in with the character histories of my players. :cool:

    Dwarf Wizard, how to play him?
