This story-hour might be a little different then most. For our group's most recent game, one of the characters has in his possession the book "Chaser's Journal," in which the character, Abraxas Spellchaser, records the adventures that happen to him and his group of friends. Each episode is a...

My group decided that we wanted to try playing a Steam-Punk game, where the conflict being played is the power of nature, the ancient world and magic against the march of technology. The general idea is to include some Dresden Files-like elements of the incompatibility of magic with technology...

I've got a character who is currently an Flame Elemental Savant, and I wanted to know about his class's level 10 ability: Is there a way to turn off burning, or do you deal a d6 of damage to everything you wear every round?

I'm playing a Warlock in my current game, and type of character I'm playing is very much the Spawn type, someone sold to evil power who wants to try and destroy that power. To properly illustrate this, I wanted to take a prestige class that would give my character the Spawn feel. Many of Spawn's...

I haven't been able to check the site in a week, so pardon me if I missed the site redesign, but where did the on-line gaming toolbox go? That had a bunch of great links aggregated in one place that was easy to use at the gaming table.

My party has just tripped upon a buried tomb. They entered through a buried skylight into a 30x30' room with 4 corridors leading off from each wall. Each Corridor is 100' long with sarcophagi set into the walls. The east corridor had something sparkling at the end of it, so they sent an...

I'm working on a custom class for my game, and I need to try and come up with a name for a pair of his abilities. The class is called the Biomancer, and their shtick is biological modification magics and a Chimera pet. In some regards they are a kind of Anti-druid, with a strong focus in...

My players have got a very interesting situation that they are trying to deal with. They've been hired to clean out an abandoned wizard's tower. But the Tower is around 1400 miles away across a crowed archipelago that puts anything in our world to shame. They're only 3rd, so I don't think I can...

In my game that I'm running, a major villain in the first arc of the campaign is an army of uplifted simians who have decided to kill their creators. There are several different kinds of simians of various sizes. I've decided to use goblinoids for them, but I want the ability to generate classed...

Is there a good program to do large-scale rpg mapping for OSX? I know of dundjinni, but some people here have mentioned that it is rather poor at global or continental scale modeling.

Our current group has been together for around 6 years right now, and in that time-frame, most of us have graduated college and moved on to real jobs, which limits how often people can play. I'm starting a new game, but I only can manage 2 people from my group, plus my roommate who's a newbie to...

I'm about to start up a new campaign where outsiders will play a important part, and I thought I might use Yugoloths as the dangerous evil outsiders. Then I looked again at WoTC's conversions of them in the MM 2&3 and groaned. They are not on the level of the other Fiend races, and the scales of...

I've gotten an idea for a series of in-jokes in my game that I'm going to be starting. The idea first came to be with the idea of a rum called Captain El's, and a picture of a wizard in robes smoking a pipe with his foot on a cask. So I decided to try and make it a whole brewery in my campaign...

In our group, there exists such a thing known as Don Luck, when tends to be whenever I roll, I can get any results above a 10 for roughly about 9 out of 10 rolls. This wouldn't be so annoying if it wasn't just me. We've got a couple of people in this group, who when they need to roll the 20...

In a game I'm going to be running soon, the flavor of the world asks me to try and come up with some additional Mage classes to fill in the society. I'd be obliged if you kin folks here could help check me on some of these classes. Chaos Mage Black Knight Biomancer Channeler Arcane Warrior...
