    Bringing others into the hobby (based on comments from Shelly Mazzanoble)

    we actually found that once people realized we bathed regularly and didn't believe this stuff to be real, it became palatable. that and having actual jobs seems to go a long way. hahahahahaha!!!!!!!!

    Emphasizing Law vs. Chaos

    also, if you take several chaotic or several lawful races, you will see several very different answers to the same alignment. same with morals. good and evil. in any world, including our own, you will get many versions of good and evil. even celestials wage vast wars in the name of thier own...

    Emphasizing Law vs. Chaos

    the first thing you would have to do is really think it through. ask the following (in cosmic terms).. what IS chaos? what IS order? what IS good? what IS evil? what IS neutral? it is one thing to declare a demon "a force of destruction". it is another thing to think of that being as one that...

    hmmmm. not sure. seem to recall it being an adventure. just can't remember anything about it. last saw it in the mid 80's??

    Bringing others into the hobby (based on comments from Shelly Mazzanoble)

    our group usually resorts to threats and pelting the potential gamer with assorted cold cuts until they capitulate to our invitation. then begins an ordeal of "behaviour modification". which is our fancy way of saying "torture" intertwined with political, religious and social engineering. then...

    "bloody bones" ring any bells?

    just had a renegade thought.... anyone remember a module that featured a type of undead known as bloody bones? this creature was summoned from the underworld as a sort of undead commander. anyone remember this module? drawing a blank here.

    The Killer Dungeon

    how many of you have specifically designed a scenario/adventure/campaign to be a particularly deady situation? we sometimes (not often) do this to test characters/players. just curious. we tend to run things on the higher end of the danger spectrum, but sometimes there is no substitute for...

    Morality and D&D?

    hmmmmmm. big question. fun question. well, in our game, we use the great wheel, only a much larger version of it. we have and alignment field. that is it is like a matrix. actions define alignment. so does choice. in our game, killing of any kind is despicable. yet, it IS necessary. one of the...

    does this armor make me look fat?

    oh yeah, thanks for the response. didn't realize the question was unclear. but it does bring a couple of questions to mind. do you employ "set in stone" rules regarding bonuses and penalties? or "fast and loose"? and do you use fashion and such in advance your story lines? or have story lines...

    does this armor make me look fat?

    oh no, didn't mean that. just wondering about the overall.... presence of the concept. perhaps call it elitism (of a sort). you see, after we looked at the cavelier (long time ago), we started comparing this attitude to that of the fashion victims. that is, alot of people (in the real world)...

    does this armor make me look fat?

    just wondering about how you other gamers deal with concepts like vanity, or cultural mores about appearance and such. our group actually got the idea from original unearthed arcana and the cavalier description. basically, they would wear nonmagical armor if it looked "higher class". they...

    thicker than blood?

    sounds good. yep. family can be an asset, burden or plot device. really great when it can be all of these things. in our game, the dm's often decide on family members (after all, noone chooses thier parents). we make allowances for really really really well thought out characters. still, the...

    Chopping off Body Parts

    everything should be brought back. all optional. everything. maybe even with some clarity on what is available on the different worlds (monsters, magic, prestige classes etc) though, truly classic stuff should be included. it would be a shame if in thier zeal to produce a slick, easy...
