My players not only collect pets, they get hats for their pets. At least I know what they can use gold for in the game. Hats for Pets.

The Mummy (1999) has the feeling of a group of Call of Cthulhu investigators, except not enough of them die.

I ran this with my group at work on Monday night. It was a blast. They figured out the charades pretty well and because there were more players and they were higher level I added some red-eyed, red-nosed, fire breathing reindeer (giant elk base) as well as buffing the dryads and letting the...

It sounds like you all should try Space:1889. Victorian steampunk in spades. I am more familiar with the original hardcover, but I see there is a pdf of more recent rules. I enjoyed playing it but I have no opinions on any of the adventures.

No one mentioned having one of your party with Mage Hand drag the weapon away after it has been dropped. More fun if you move it 30' up so they cannot run over and take it from the hand.

One player in my group is running a Trickery cleric and the Divinity power to create a duplicate of himself that he can cast touch spells through is crazy. Lots of good times in our last game where the cleric kept goblins guessing where the cleric really was.

I play both in organized play in person and I run an open game at my church. The people I've played with have become friends but since anyone can show up and play, I selected other.

I would like to see a shaman class.

I've used a few classes from different sites including the revised elemental monk. I enjoy the monster a day I found from reddit which has had some interesting monsters. I worked on a shaman class for while but the player decided not to use it so I left it. I always vet new things a player...

Reducing treasure is important. Direct conversion of spell casters will leave them weaker than expected. I tend to give spell casters some minions to help keep the party off them so they can cast spells.

I've been running more open games at my church and when I fill in on AL nights at my local game store. So I haven't minded most of the player ideas. When I run less open games, I try to take a page from someone from the old Pyramid boards and do a summary of the campaign and let people apply...

For the Tempest cleric in my game I let them choose to switch a spell's radiant damage to lightning or thunder at the time of casting because there are not very many lighting or thunder spells a tempest cleric gets. When I looked at it, it was pretty much one per level and no cantrips. I let...

I run a group at church that meets twice a month. After about 2 years of playing (starting with the playtest rules) the highest level character is 9th level most others are 7th or 8th. We play about 4 hours each time we meet. Not everyone shows up each time and people who don't show up get 1/2...

I've been adding the PotA content into the Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil and I included having the original Elemental Champion having become the high priest of the Elemental Princes of Good. My players found him and after escorting him to a safer hiding place (and dealing with the...

But I didn't have the salmon mousse. **Some more I thought of** It's just a flesh wound... Call me maybe? The hokey pokey IS what it is all about... I will haunt you... See you in your nightmares There will be others... With my last breath I spit at thee Is your name Inigo Montoya? Do you want...

I generally like rolling and I don't mind getting a weaker character from rolling but I can see that some players don't like it. To me rolling poorly on a character is just a chance to have fun with a character called to be a hero but maybe not quite good enough to make the cut. The last...

No cleric in my main group for a while now. There was a tempest cleric but she has to work the days we play now. There is a paladin, ranger and druid so healing is covered. I find that the clerics of 5th edition are fun. But they don't need to be healers during combat. The only time the...

Now that my PCs are all 6-8th level, towns are a place where they are being asked for help or their enemies are trying to lay traps for them. When in a town each players tells me what they want their characters to do and unless there is some possible reason for failure it just happens. I...

I have a group I run for people at church that I do not enforce AL rules. I started playing in an AL game at a game store in Long Beach. I started GMing last week when there were more people than prepared tables. I had a lot of fun focusing on giving the players a chance to role-play instead...

I definitely can see that. But it's also interesting to watch what happens to a player that has failed two death saves as they try to convince someone at the table to come to their rescue. It puts an interesting pressure on the tactics of the players. If I wasn't running a table with some...
