    Resizing Magic Weapons (aka the Telescoping Sword)

    hehe...beat me to it. this was the first thing I thought of when I read this thread title. So...the sword of omens in its smallest form is a longsword when used by Snarf, but Lion-O can resize it to a longsword by chanting the magic words :)

    [Midnight] Dark Tower's Shadow (Updated 12/10)

    Great story hour! Thanks for writing this Paka. Question: Is the Esben family a canon part of the setting, or one of your own creations Paka? I really like the twisted vision of this family, especially the tyrannical father.

    AU - first impressions?

    As opposed to using three feats and higher level spell slots? (Silent Spell) Only drops verbal (Still Spell) Only drops somatic (Eshew Components) Only drops minor material In AU, two lower level slots equal one higher level slot, so in essence, its the same cost as ONE of those 3rd ed feats...

    1/4 million dollar fine for bootlegging d+d books?

    That's because there's no money to be made in enforcing those laws. Who cares if someone gets killed? Instead we can back this multi-media corps in Congress and take tons of campaign contributions for it.

    Arcana Unearthed or 3.5 PH???

    Im an AU fanboi. Already have it pre-ordered so it will ship on July 25th. I've been bombarding my group with design diaries since Dec of last year. I can't wait for it. 3.5? Eh. I'll buy it eventually, but the SRD will probably serve until I got the extra cash.

    Now I know why I play games

    Thanks for all the kind words and condolences. I know I shouldn't use the game as escapism, but its tempting. I'm still there for my fiance, as this is a rough time for her. She keeps asking if she should contact her friend (which I tell her of course she should) because she's afraid of...

    Now I know why I play games

    One would like to think that the reason we play roleplaying games is because we want to live in fantasy worlds, do heroic deeds, and be someone we are not. I don't think this is the case. I think we do it because the worlds that we make when playing these games make sense. Horrible things...

    Modules and Suspension of Disbelief

    Here's an excerpt from an email written to a player in my game. Does anyone else have this problem with player's in their games? I've noticed a phenomenon with players in the past...I call it Module blinders. Once a player sees the module cover, they go into to "module-mode". It doesn’t...

    [OT] The Worst Car of the Millennium - The List

    Unfortunately yes....I owned a Dodge Aspen, for about a week. Bought it for $200, it took 30 min to get warmed up in the fall in Atlanta GA! If you tried to put it in drive before it got warmed up, the engine would die. The car horn sounded like an asthmatic (sp?) after completing a pack of...

    Impressions on 3.5?

    <shrug> I'll buy it so I can play in my friend's games. I like the changes in general, but Im not very excited about it. Guess Im burned out. Its just more of the same with the words rearranged. Now AU...that's the stuff. I can't wait till that book hits the shelves.

    Worse. Character. Name. Ever!!

    Isn't Lupus Yonderboy a character in a William Gibson book? One of the gangers in Neuromancer? Gibson takes the cake for great names: Praisegod Satansbane Boomzilla (dammit, can't think of anymore right now)

    [OT] Sandwichery of the Dark Ages

    Yeah I just read a long history of beer on the net. Pretty interesting actually. It still didnt tell me why the first person drank it though :) From what it sounds like, someone left some bread in some water for a few days and then drank it. I guess he was really thirsty or something :)
