    D&D General io9: 2023 Should Have Been D&D's Best Year, Until It Wasn't

    Irony may be a fundamental building block of the universe. I have seen major blunders by companies. As an ex-reporter, I hate layoffs and have to wonder how the media market will adapt to the new challenges. As for D&D, things are not as dire as when TSR stopped publishing. (I remember that...

    WotC [Updated!] Hasbro Laying Off 1,100 Employees

    I feel profoundly sad for the employees who got their pink slips and hope that they will be well. I suspect that some of them are already talking to other companies. I have seen good companies suffer from bad decisions and poor leadership. I guess the next short-term test for Hasbro and WotC...

    Paizo and TYPE40 Announce Launch Date of Wayfinder Compass Kickstarter

    It would be a great thing to have at a PFS table or walk around with at a convention. Plus, it is rather stylish. I can definitely see a few cosplayers wanting to get one.

    Rest in Peace, Edena of Neith

    It is thread necromancy, but perhaps we can learn to value each other, regardless of our differences. I have not heard anything from his family, so I suspect that our community and Circvs Maximus are really the only memorial he had.

    Rest in Peace, Edena of Neith

    Creamsteak, good to see you but I wished that it was under better circumstances. I have hear nothing from Edena's family. I like to think that the good that we do lives on afterwards. I had a lot of fun with the games here and talking with him. May he rest in peace and may all of us here be...

    It's D&D's 40th anniversary. Tell me your D&D history, and what it means to you!

    I first began playing Dungeons and Dragons in 1980, with some classmates from high school. My first character, Saruk, was a monk and the adventure was a bad rip off of the Lord of the Rings. Still, I had fun and continued gaming. Over the years I have met many friends through gaming and got...

    Pathfinder 1E Drow Homeland?

    The drow on Golarion have a separate origin than the drow of Tori or Oerth, in that the drow of Golarion went into the Darklands circa -10,000 Arbsalom Reckoning, nearly 15,000 years ago. There, they changed under the influence of Rovagug. Thus, the drow of Golarion, in terms of their having...

    Rest in Peace, Edena of Neith

    We seldom know what others are going through in their private lives. We all have our struggles. I think that we do have to be considerate of each other. Later today, I am going to GM a game for Pathfinder Society. I will think about Terry while I run it.

    Rest in Peace, Edena of Neith

    Henry it is hard to believe that they are gone. I really did not get many details from the police when they responded to my request for a wellness check. I know that Terry was very distraught with his own declining health and that of his mother.

    Rest in Peace, Edena of Neith

    Contacting old friends I took some time to look at some of Terry's posts and contacted a few members who have not been active of late, so that they might come here and post. Thank all of you for your kind words.

    Rest in Peace, Edena of Neith

    Same here. I have known many people in my life and Terry was one of a kind. I remember at the first ENnie Awards, you and I looked for him as he promised to be there. It turns out he missed Gen Con that year entirely. I am trying to let a few people who knew Terry learn about his passing.

    Rest in Peace, Edena of Neith

    Some reflections on a friend I first meet Terry online via an online game at EN World, The Third Industrial Revolution, set primarily on the World of Greyhawk, but involving other TSR settings as well. These were part of a series of games known as Industrial Revolutions, or IRs, that posited...

    Rest in Peace, Edena of Neith

    I have some sad news for long time members of EN World, the Wizards of the Coast message board, and several other message boards. I have learned that Terry, better known online as Edena of Neith or Edelaith, is dead. This is the main body of what I sent one of the administrator’s at EN World on...

    Site return kick-off: random things you want to see in a game

    I seem to recall that the dramojh in Monte Cook's Arcana Unearthed/Arcana Evolved that the dramojh, a race that combined aspects of demons and dragons, created the slassan a race that looked like a combination of snakes and spiders.
