Almost none, truth be told. Any work I put in is for groups that are already in play, so the settings get used. I am lazy and don't like prepping stuff that won't get used... That said, there are obviously elements within any given seting that don't see the light of day. Adventure hooks, NPCs...

I like a mix. I try to weave things together, so will adjust modules to suit things going on in the world, or adapt to a setting etc. Right now, both of my 1e groups are in modules based on the hooks laid out and direction they chose. My 5e group is in a setting wherein there are hooks to...

'83 Red Box on my 13th birthday. Ahhh... good times. Ended up taking the D&D stuff up to my cousin's that summer as I was staying with them for a month. We had all of the ridiculous, stupid, definitely-getting-the-rules-wrong adventures that you can imagine a group of kids would have, and...

Bofur did have knowledge of healing and the use of the anfalas plant...

Back in my 20s I ran a RIFTS game that was loosely based on the TV series 'Sliders' wherein the characters had a magical tablet that opened portals after a randomly determined period of time and took them to their next adventure. I hopped them through the full line of Palladium systems that we...

The way Kili deflects goblin arrows with that ladder, perhaps a few levels in monk? :p

1983 Red Box all the way. I actually regret giving all of that original stuff away in my foolish 20s when I felt I was 'done with D&D' (man was that an epic lack of foresight). Granted, I gave it to the young lad who would eventually be the father of my niece... and he still has it all... so...

Personally, for my games I'm pretty hands-off when it comes to how players elect to play their characters. I adjudicate their actions within the game world but I don't dictate how they should play. I love it when players are able to immerse in their characters and role-play to the hilt -...

For the 5e game I'm running the team is level 2. (Fighter, Cleric, Sorcerer, Ranger). After next session should be level 3 assuming we finish the scenario, which is likely. For the 5e game I'm playing in we are 10th level, my character is Warlock 8/Wizard 2.

Things I hate about the various editions... BECMI - This set got me hooked on D&D in my tender teen years... I HATE that I didn't find it sooner, all those wasted years from the time I could read... AD&D 1e - What I hate most about 1e is how perfectly perfect it is, don't you just hate an...

I am running some experimental house rules which include Cantrip limitations. Casters with cantrips get their proficiency modifier plus their level in cantrips per long rest. They may also use a bonus action to trade a leveled spell slot for more cantrips equal to their proficiency modifier...

Rolling all the way. The way I see it, a big part of the game (most types of games really) is playing the hand you're dealt, and that occasionally means low to average scores.

I can't speak as to your gaming needs, but as an old coot with tactile needs, I most assuredly prefer to have physical books first and foremost. Even when DMing online I have hard copies within reach. That said, I'm not so set in my ways that I don't see the value of an easily searchable...

:unsure: I suppose if I were to pare it back and present it bullet-point in 12 pt font, 1-2 pages... but I've prettied them up into little booklets with pictures and formatting etc... so my 1e booklet is 12 pages, and my 5e is 9. Why, you ask? 'Cause. :cool:

1st ed Cormyr, Team 'good' consisting of a 5th level Dwarf Fighter, 3rd Level Human Ranger, 1st Level Human Druid, and 1/1 Gnome Fighter/Thief and an NPC Elf, are in a smal farming community investigating some strange creatures. The Scenario is the 'Advanced Adventures' title 'Pod Caverns of...

One PC has been accused of assault by another PC. The 1st character was arrested and the trial session is upcoming. I have recruited a real life Lawyer friend of mine to sit in and act as one of the magistrates. So the PCs will have an impartial inquiry by someone who knows only the charges...

The further adventures of my 1st ed team in Cormyr... Kyla the 3rd level Human Kensai, and Feltuun the 5th level Dwarven Fighter were joined by Ersey, 1st level Gnome Fighter/Thief and Ry-Lee, 1st Level Human Druid. Arash, the group's 3rd level Ranger is absent today. It's the month of...

5e reactions as is simply aren't comprehensive enough. A more detailed chart encompasses far greater reach of reactions than any one DM is capable of thinking of on their own, I don't care how worldly they think they are. It takes the decision out of the DM's hands and puts it where it belongs -...

Light 4 +1 = 5 Dark 0 - 2 = -2
