    Gary Gygax Passes

    AP appears to confirm it, Yahoo is carrying the story. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080304/ap_en_ot/obit_gygax Of all the legacies to leave behind, this is one someone can be proud of.

    Challenging my high-lvl group (NPCs and monsters; my players shouldn't read this!)

    Oh, that's just fine. This was simply the first time I used the Enworld 'send mail to people' system, and wasn't entirely sure it was functional. Have fun!

    Pkitty? Finished reading the relevant bits. You get my emails? I sent them through the system on here.

    Piratecat's Updated Story Hour! (update 4/03 and 4/06)

    The Kitty is fine and having fun and said he's got a storyhour almost done... and that he's not as fond of the transcribing from tape as he thought he would be. I think that's worth sharing. It probably makes things too much like work, wouldn't you think? So hang loose, folks.

    Piratecat's Updated Story Hour! (update 4/03 and 4/06)

    City of Heroes is _lots_ of fun. But the Pkitty is writing. Really! Said so! Mmm... Virtue. Mmm... blaster...

    Remember, the general hangout is in Gemini Park, in Galaxy City. All sorts of fun people there.

    Piratecat's Updated Story Hour! (update 4/03 and 4/06)

    I shall, once the official forums come back up, start a thread over there, on the Virtue forum, for everyone to check in on. That shall be my third and _last_ post to this thread, on this topic. We can move it all over there. Currently, the forums are undergoing weekly maintenance. Here is...

    Piratecat's Updated Story Hour! (update 4/03 and 4/06)

    Hey. just sticking my head in for the RP community of Virtue. I'm La Pucelle over there, mostly, or Shamrock II. I currently am running the open-ended massive-supergroup Alliance of Virtue, show up on the forums as Warcabbit pretty frequently, and if you ever want to be introduced around to...

    Another Dragon #300 thread - kill the tie-ins

    I entirely agree, strong themes really glue the magazine together, as well as make it easier to find things later. What themes are, ah, mandated, though? Yearly, I can think of three we always have. April is Humor. October is always Undead and Spooks. And the anniversary issue always has a...

    Another Dragon #300 thread - kill the tie-ins

    Well, I've been reading Dragon since the one with Deck of Many Things... 142? 148? Something like that. I think I've got a decent perspective on the historical issues. First, I _do_ miss Dragonmirth. I love the comics now, especially What's New, but I wouldn't mind a half-page of one-panel...

    What Generation of D&D are you?

    The first game I had was Top Secret, in '83, which led to D&D and then AD&D 1st rather quickly...

    Somewhat OT -- Recommendations for an Internet Game?

    Well. If you _really_ want to play D&D online. Real, one hundred percent OGL D&D... It's possible. Text based medium, though. Check out www.treyvan.com

    Does your campaign have a shop that sells magic items?

    Technically, yes, the campaign I play in has one. On the other hand, the treasure is so low, and the prices are so high, nothing has been bought from it, except a few scrolls. You want a naked PC? 13th level sorcerer/rogue. +1 quarterstaff, +1 leather, Cloak of resistance +1. And slippers of...

    Cursed Items

    The Bestow Curse / Feeblemind thing. Bestow Curse, with the -4 Saves effect. Feeblemind. -4 save if an arcane caster... -8 total. It's a bit brutal.

    Cursed Items

    First: Bestow Curse and Feeblemind: Nasty combo. Second. Cursed items. Recently, I ran into a Periapt of Health +4 and, what, for some odd reason, I deduced before I got someone to Analyze Deowmer and nat-20 the rolls, a curse. Foul Rotting. I mean, that's just nasty. Now. I'm in a low magic...

    [CoC] Call of Ghostbusters?

    You know, this really could work. Make the SAN loss an episodic thing. As the adventure goes on and on, you have the characters get edgier and more insane, till they start backbiting and flipping out... By the end of the movie, the Ghostbusters were hanging on by their fingernails... Egon...

    Spelljammer d20

    Darn it, I liked Giff. They're bloody vikings, they are. Full of roisterous fun, cheerfully brutal mayhem, and, well, yes, explosives. They're the cavalry, when your players are outgunned, the chaos that breaks up a quiet tavern and sends your players scurrying away. They're the other guy in...
