    D&D General Forgotten Realms: Real World Gods Still Present in the Old Empires

    Greenwood in Dragon 54 said "SILVANUS Straight from DDG, p. 30." James Ward or Rob Kuntz in doing the Celtic mythos in DDG probably got Silvanus from a description including the Roman name.

    Pulp RPGs General Thread [+]

    The hp and level system allows D&D to be a bit pulpy giving heroes a death buffer so Indiana can get in an extended back and forth fist fight with the bald hulking mustachioed German mechanic.

    Pulp RPGs General Thread [+]

    The 2d20 system in general is designed to be fairly pulpy so Achtung Cthulhu (which is WWII punch Nazis pulp in multiple systems including the current 2d20) and Conan (pulp fantasy) and others.

    Pulp RPGs General Thread [+]

Action, fast paced, some danger but not a lot of blood, back and forth with the fairly competent and strong hero winning through or the villain getting away in that scene.

    D&D General How do you prefer your monster books?

    I really like themed monster books with good lore. I really liked the 2e van richtens guides for instance. I also really like themed monster books like enworld’s terrain themed ones from 3.5 that covers a wide variety of creature types and power levels that are appropriate for a jungle, say...

    You are correct. :) In looking up the power again in the srd I missed that last line. It has been a while for me. The last time I was DMing a druid in 3.5 the game was getting up there in levels, we ended at level 17. :) At 8th you would need to start with at most an 8 HD size large polar bear...
