Samuel Taylor Coleridge. Why? The whole first half of the Rhyme of the Anciant Mariner, including some of my favorite verses: "And I had done an hellish thing, And it would work 'em woe: For all averred, I had killed the bird That made the breeze to blow. 'Ah wretch!' said they, 'the...

Here are some questions to ask yourself while you work on a business plan What exactly are you planning? Who are your competitors? What are your market advantages? What makes your store better than others? What sort of threats or challenges exist in the market place? How/where will you...

Not really. I like humans and I've played several of them, but I wouldn't say I prefer them over all other races. I like dwarves a lot. There are more dwarves in my character folder than anything else.

I have an old dictionary (published in the 1860s). it has a section in the back with thousands and thousands of names grouped into Greek, Arab, Christian, and others. I also have a couple self-designed methods for coming up with names. One is based on Welsh spellings and pronunciation, the other...

Not really. We are all between 30 and 32.

Started in 84 when I was 10. My dad and his friends invited me to play in their game that had already been going for a few years (since 82 probably). It was a friday night. I remeber that I couldn't sleep when we got home after that first game because my head was full of ideas about flaming...

You might want to check out Wilderness Traps. Available at EN World Game store and RPGnow. It covers about a dozen simple traps that can be used for both hunting and killing enemies. Most can be built quickly and at little or no cost. They are laid out in 3.5 trap format and include...

I've always recommened fighter, but give them a brief overview of the others and ask them about their interests and see if they are more interested in something else.

I see. I should have been more clear about what to expect. I started to explain about the overlap in my first post, then decided I was just talking too much (which I do sometimes on message boards) We plan to get back on the Primal Legends classes as soon as we are done with the current...

I'm sorry I wasn't clear enough about what to expect from this title. I've added a free demo, so other people can get a look at it before they buy. Here: http://www.bloodstone-press.com/1948/Serum-preview.pdf It's purpose is to portray the 1948 world, not offer a lot of "new" game rules. As...

They temporarily alter the DNA of the user, so they provide "racial" bonuses. Though some are also unnamed bonuses. They are very similar to potions, but achieve their effects through physical changes rather than magical enhancement. They are not very much like mini-templates. The "Type" of the...

As some of you may have noticed, we have not updated our web site lately. This is due to a mysterious malfunction with our web page editing software (MS FP 2000). We have attempted several repairs and work-arounds, but to no avail. The Deed of Last Resort (reinstalling the software) is at hand...

I voted for Batman Begins. I really liked the way they handled the theme and some of the horror scenes. It also had a good plot, good acting, and good set design.

I've done all the buying, now I'm just waiting for them to arrive from Amazon.

Yeah, I love to play chess. I don't get to play much any more, though. I'm pretty good at it too (though every time I say that, I lose). I've been able to beat my dad since I was 12. I beat a local "chess master" (at a ren fair) a few years ago. I was on the chess team in elementary school. When...

Yes. I think it helps with awareness. I know there have been several products that I first heard about on these boards (not in the news section), either because the publisher was talking about it, or because he/she had a link in their sig. From a publisher's point of view, I usually see an...

I think that's a good idea. It could even be something that RPGnow/Minion Development does as a way to promote its publishers and the PDF market, rather than one particular publisher becoming the lightning rod for criticism (along the lines of "Who does this guy think he is" and "Look at him...

The Wit (CLEAN | COMPLEX | DARK) 52% dark, 34% spontaneous, 36% vulgar You like things edgy, subtle, and smart. I guess that means you're probably an intellectual, but don't take that to mean pretentious. You realize 'dumb' can be witty--after all isn't that the Simpsons' philosophy?--but...

Thanks. ;) I don't know about "very," they do live underground, they hoard gems like dwarves, they are gadgeteers (IIRC the Gnome king has a rube goldberg type periscope) Yeah, guns grow on trees in Oz. Fortunately it doesn't come up much in the stories, IMO. The characters rely more...
