Hey everybody, this is something I've put together for our home games and such, and while I haven't been able to playtest them properly yet I was wondering what sort of opinions it might get. I do think some of it may be too strong (or maybe not worth it, but hey ideas are just ideas) at this...

This is something as a class homebrewer that I always have as a headscratcher. When creating archetypes for a class, I have really no idea how far to take it. A lot of existing archetypes I don't feel go far enough in defining the differences, or take away things that make that archetype almost...

So I joined a one shot game with a group I've never played before, and we got into a very interesting argument before the game got underway about stats and how they should be. While creating the characters we of course rolled in front of the DM, 4d6 drop the lowest, and put the rolls in what...

Hello all so heres the deal, I'm making a campaign setting for my group while we finish up our current game and after playing far too much dark souls and skyrim on the weekends I'm wanting to make the loot and such more of an impact, and that loot includes spells. What I mean is that I intend...

I'm not really a spell caster most of the time but I thought I'd pull out the druid for our Rise of the Runelords game this time, my only issue is that honestly I don't really want wildshape at all. I'm aware that it's a 'big factor' for the druid usually, but the character really doesn't fit...

I'm the DM of a game that's been running for a good while now (going on 2 years), but recently there has been a huge issue in trying to run it lately, 2 of the players aren't showing up like they should. Now this apparently happens for a number of reasons, and despite them both saying how much...

Hey guys, the party I'm DMing for a short High Level (10 up to probably 16) game mostly just for the sake of going up against some nasty monsters, and I'm wanting to make the final guy something a little special, The Void Yai Oni really caught my eye and thus so did the Voildlords of them, which...

Hello all, I'm making a character for a campaign starting in a week or two, but I'm having a terrible time figuring out how to actually even build the type of character I want. We're using pathfinder and the SRD wiki for it has nearly everything possible to have I think so sources shouldn't...

Alright so my group and me have the idea to play a side campaign using pretty high level characters just for the fun of it and making characters out of our favorite video game characters. This is something to do when we don't feel like doing heavy story narrative and such, instead playing light...

Yeah I had no clue what to title this heh. Basically I'm looking to create a character for my groups next venture who was a seer that delved far too deeply into the unknown, and has been both gifted and twisted by the forces of the far planes (sort of "I stared at Cthulu for too long and now...

Hello everyone, it's been a while since I was last here, but I need some input on the idea's I've got going for a new campaign in the works for my group, and since it's something I haven't done in a good while either some advice or ideas pitch would be incredibly nice! Alright so the ground...

Hello everyone, I'm finishing up writing things up for a new campaign my group will be doing with myself as the DM, however I've hit a bit of a snag. The final enemy of this campaign is a Vampire lord using this as the 'lord' part of the template for those whom don't know about- Monster Mayhem...

Yeah I had no idea what to call this thread but..well I'm not entirely sure what to do with a task in front of me.. To explain, I've recently begun a campaign with a new group, all decently seasoned enough in the game and I'm more used to balancing high level parties, and so we've started at...

I'm assisting my friend by Co-DMing his first campaign, and he's having some issues with balancing out the encounters against our party, as he's underestimated what they have mostly because neither of us really understood how powerful each one happens to be. The environment is a highly magic...

Hey good people of the forums, I've been invited to join a Call of Cthulu game(think I spelled the right >.> ) and since I've never played and only have a barely fundamental knowledge of the game I'd like to ask a few questions on here to get some more opinions, especially since the DM has...

As the title suggests I've been invited to play in a D20 modern game and after taking a long looking over the rules and play style I have a lot of concerns... firstly I don't want to use a gun, period. it's just a personal thing of mine but I don't really like using guns in these kinds of...

I'm just curious since my group had this discussion, so I'm asking anyone that would like to answer. Whats your favorite Template for a creature or a Character if given the chance to avoid any LA and such? I don't really want to see a lot of responses about things like no LA Paragon being...

I've been asked to create a few new classes for a game of mine and while I've been successful on most of them I'm starting to have very few idea's on what to do with the last 4. The campaign itself is a very low magic campaign for the most part, though that is only because of where the players...

Recently I've been invited to join a campaign and play a character type I've never had the privilege to portray, a kind of "ragnarok" incarnate. Long story short is that she is meant to be part of the major plot line that they rest of the party is in, finally meeting the figure they've heard...

This is happening in a Campaign I'm running and I'd like to ask for some advice on how to handle it so as not to tip the scale back and forth too much.. The party is made up of an 8th level fighter, an 8th level Wizard, an 8th level ranger/rogue (2 levels rogue), and an 8th level Halfling...
