    As a GM, which monster do you find the most difficult to role-play?

    According to the He-Man Writer Larry DiTillio Granamyr was lifted from a Tunnels and Trolls module that DiTillio wrote - The Isle of Darksmoke. Darksmoke is also the name of Granamyr's tower in the Ice Mountains of Eternia. DiTillio said that he used Granamyr because he wanted to have an...

    As a GM, which monster do you find the most difficult to role-play?

    I tend to base these creatures on Gang culture stereotypes Orcs - Standard Thugs, Violent Biker Gangs. The Elder Orcs are a bit more jaded and struggling to keep the young thugs in line. Goblins - Weasley scavengers, who steal anything not nailed down and then run and hide (these are the...

    As a GM, which monster do you find the most difficult to role-play?

    Yeah I would love if every monster in the MM was given a motivation line as an indicator of what it wants and thus what its likely behaviour will be. Even something as simple as Illithid: Predatory Intelligence seeking Domination. Still broad enough to generalise but giving some guidance Of...

    (5.24 PBP) Vault of the Dracolich (IC) Redux

    TEAM LAKE - SUBJECT:SHADE-9 - Beast Boys : In Your Face! "I will help you" Shade-9 fixed his gaze directly upon Guldred, noting the Lizardfolks agitation "Mission Objectives have been updated, but all parameters must be considered." Aywin had suggested direct pre-emptive use of the teleporters...

    Musings on Sci Fi Campaigns/Adventures

    I did a game where the PCs were law enforcement on the outer fringe planets and moons 'the Wild frontier'. It was far enough from civilized space that the PCs had their own autonomy and responded to missions as they chose including fighting pirates and raiders, doing rescue and recovery, escort...

    Yep Reed should have a full beard or be clean shaven, its Pedro's sexy stubble look that doesnt fit Reed. not so sure about Johnnys 70's moustache

    Spoilers Fantastic Four (Spoilers)

    although there were a couple of 'gaps' I liked the length and quick pace of the movie, I think that got in the needed highlights and relationship nods to tell the story (especially for Sue and Ben) without getting distracted - and suffering the MCUs faults. Johnny was perhaps a bit...

    D&D General Discworld alignments

    He very much is that anyway, although Vimes would have no love for Batman and would make a point of hunting down the aristocrat-vigilante

    Spoilers Fantastic Four (Spoilers)

    Just saw it and enjoyed it. Would have been fun to spend more time exploring Earth 828 and Subterranea. Kirby was great and I liked that they showed her as actually powerful (and ready to call out Reed). I also liked that they showed Ben and even Johnny as intelligent in their own right. so...

    D&D General I finally like non-Tolkien species for PCs

    Yes this would be so very good to see. I'm a big fan of curated Setting Palettes and the ones you've outlined are a good fun set, though you may want to add other nymphs to your 'wood elf dryads'. Interesting call on the Spartoi, it works as good as any other and is thematically linked. I'm...

    Spoilers I saw Happy Gilmore 2; so now you dont have to.

    Thanks, I never had any intention of seeing this as I did not enjoy the first one for being so very American, so its comforting to know my prejudice is well founded

    Avatar: Fire and Ash | Official Trailer

    yeah, no doubt the Bad Colonel Klink joins forces with Sully and co this time to fight the Navi firebenders before Sozins Comet returns making the Fire Lord unstoppable. Looks like some nice worldbuilding anyway, especially as they seem to be including the Air Nomads and their floater-balloons too

    Game Mechanics & Lore

    DnD does heroic fantasy with a bit of tactical jiggling, it can overlay different settings on that - everything from Spelljammer to Eberron even Ravenloft, but at the end of the day its Tiefling barbarians swinging flaming megaswords. Its not doing horror, or intrigue or investigation without...
