Forget it, Phototoxin. It's Chinatown. I entirely agree with what you noted and I would reiterate what you said about knowing your players. One guy in my group wants his characters to have decisive victories every time and like you pointed out--only "less bad" endings would be jading and...

I would not be concerned about this. I think you have plenty of races in the world in general and plenty of race options for player characters. (This is purely my opinion so don't let it dissuade you from your vision or enthusiasm for creating...) Personally, I would pare down the races list...

My interest in the show has waned because they're dragging out the war with Negan far, far too long. This current season is especially bad because very little plot advancement happens in each episode. It would have been much more interesting if the war with Negan wrapped in the first episode...

To me this is a situation that is resolved better out of the game than in the game. If I am running the game and murderhoboism is a potential issue, I would have an out of character discussion with the players about the tone and feel of the game that I wanted to run. I would get their buy in...

I find Garbage's stuff still holds up and when I saw them earlier this year they were dynamite. (But I'm a biased fan.) Their music is perfect for high energy running or biking.

Wow! I missed the announcement for this one! I love Greg Rucka's stuff. Such a good comic. As I understand it there's a starter kit for it with the full game coming out at some point in the future. I'll leave it up to you whether the stater kit counts or not.

I didn't do a side-by-side comparison but thematically this seems to tread the same path as the favored soul (or maybe even the celestial warlock). If that's accurate, consider reshaping this to give it a more unique theme and feel.

You're getting top notch advice from others on how to revamp your plot, so I won't speak to that. But this part popped out to me. Unless your group is dedicated enough to keep a campaign up and running for year, I recommend you pare it down so there aren't uninteresting doldrums throughout the...

I just started on the 3rd book over the weekend!

steeldragons gave much more thorough and useful advice than I would have. I'd especially echo the sentiment to focus on elements that are in closest proximity to where your game will likely start. I wouldn't spend time on far off places or far off history until your players have an opportunity...

I wouldn't stress it. You don't have a pending first session deadline so don't feel desperate. Take your time to brainstorm and collaborate here and then firm up your concepts either when you're happy with them or when you get a group and collaborate with them. Or both! steeldragons has...

In addition to using us, use your players. Our group usually gives homework assignments--three allies, three adversaries, three contact. Sometimes three items, three events, three locations. They're usually only a few sentences each and provide the players and GM with some sort of hook. We...

Wild magic sorcerer for that chaotic vibe your Secret Santa likes?

That is simply amazing. I was never very intrigued by kua-toa before but that immediately won me over.

What's the backstory on their deity? I'm not familiar with that lore.

Its albinism is a good rationale for why it would strike a mutually symbiotic relationship with the adventurer. If everything it turns into is white, its camouflage would rarely work and it would likely have a difficult time feeding itself. But if it can pal around as the adventurer's sword...

That's such an incredible concept for a magic item. As a player I wouldn't care how good it actually is mechanically. Using a mimic weapon is the epitome of awesome and that alone would have me hooked. And I really like Satyrn's idea of it getting hungry and going berserk on its own. Aw man...
