One way that libraries work is to join into consortia. My library is in one. If WE buy an ebook, our local patrons can always see it and put a hold on it. But if anothier member library owns it, we can only see and borrow it WHEN IT IS AVAILABLE. Otherwise, it is invisible. So look again! I bet...

Retired librarian - talk to your library. Email suggestions of titles, authors, etc… that you want to read. They WANT to hear from you.

Exactly. By about 9th level things are hard, and by 12th it is fairly crazy. I just won’t go higher. But also, I prefer stories that are less about the abilities and powers of the Pcs and monsters, and more about the characters and situations and choices.

I am on mac. I have searched pretty carefully, but I just can’t locate it. I am beginning to wonder if I just read it online somewhere! Thank you! this worked. The adventure I was looking for is "Gateway to a Savage Land". I appreciate the help!

A few months ago, I was reading an adventure from my LARGE stash of pdfs. I'm pretty sure I got it in a humble bundle or similar deal. Now I can't find the adventure again. Does anyone recognize the details below? It was probably 3.5 or similar rules, but with a definite oldschool feel. Maybe...

The campaign I GM we play weekly on Sunday afternoons for 3 hours. I just joined a by-discord game that's a Dungeonworld variant set in Neverwinter. We've played one sessiion, but intend weekly 2-2.5 hr sessions on Monday nights.

rescue slaves from orc village.

I am a Librarian and have run several different D&D games there as my job. I strongly recommend the following things: 1) run the current version of the game, OR run something like OSR and advertise that heavily. 2) expect a varying group each week. My rule was that I kept all character sheets...

In my world dwarves are genderless, breathed to life by priestly magic after being carved by their parent(s). When they die, their body reverts to stone. This stone is used to build funerary walls in dwarven cities, which commemorate the dead.

They are here on this plane primarily as food providers for their feywild brethren, in fact. They hunt, farm and gather here, but treat the land as a market garden, really. While the outer borders of the realm LOOK wild, over centuries every tree, plant or animal has been shaped to their will...

I love the idea of the party being guided away from something - I am envisioning the PCs as one small exploratory unit ranging out from the main Expedition, so if they realize the NPC is steering the larger group away from something, they will easily make a beeline for it. My group are pretty...

Thanks, yes, these are all things I do need to think about. But I LOVE worldbuilding! My campaign world is over 35 years old (maybe 25 in the current format) and I have run at least 10 separate campaigns in it. So any worlbuilding I do, for myself, will see future use in many games. That...

In Boston at that time it was “illegal” to feed lobster to your servants more than twice a week, as it was considered so substandard.

It was all the fault of Beau Brummel having a falling out with Prinny!

I'm looking for help/ideas to build a small elven Kingdom in my campaign world. The PCs will probably end up visiting there in a not-too-future campaign. Right now, the full text of what I know is as follows: AVENVOLE: an almost exclusively elvish holding. Avenvole is an ancient land that has...

I my campaign world there have been a series of empires that have each collapsed. 400+ years after the most recent collapse, a new series of kingdoms are arising. They are at the staage now where theyare bumping into each other in some places. Between them are larger and smaller regions of...

This past session my low level party sailed to an island, met crab folk who tried hard to drug them (not to harm them, but because they knew only a human could lead the group into the dungeon, and my PCs are half-sea-elves and a catfolk). NoPC succumbed, so they recruited a ship’s crewman as...

Yeah, well, I am 59, played since I was 11, and forever DM since about 1990. And 3e is my jam, run like it is 2e. Same 2 base players since about 1995, so same campaign world, too, most of the time. I am a stick in the mud! Also, a librarian. Indexing is second nature.

I did find it. Thanks! Just hadn't scrolled far enough...

I have the entire run of 3.5 Dungeon magazines, indexed and available to me in my personal database of adventures. I've hunted through them several times looking for appropriate stuff. And I've probably got 4-5 APs. Just need to read the ones I've not run and pull stuff out. Thanks for the reminder!
