    Tell Me Your Best DM Dirty Tricks...

    Play a dangerous foe really really well. From Fang & Claw, a Guide to Creative Encounters. Use that enough, and your PCs will bow before you & beg for mercy.

    Anima: Beyond Fantasy RPG

    I'm not saying what a great game it is. Never played it, maybe never will. I am saying that there are parts to the system which are interesting and possibly worth converting for use in another system.

    Anima: Beyond Fantasy RPG

    What really intrigues me about the setting is how gods work. There's a general pantheon, but it's not divided strictly between good and evil. There's Beryls and Shajads, and while the common folk once thought Shajad were equivalent to demons, they've changed their minds in recent times. How...

    Breathing New Life into your Monsters

    D&D 4E 4e and anime

    General 'feel' varies form perspective to perspective. As for look, it ranges from the realistic to the ridonkulous. I'm a fan of anime, and I think you're missing out, particularly if you're basing your opinions on the shows that Cartoon Network decides to show (the ones that appeal to the...

    New Design & Development: Paladin Smites!

    My problem with the smites isn't tied to the crunch... it's tied to the narrowness of it. I'd be fine with these smites as a class ability, generally speaking, except for the fact that it only applies to three or so gods in a vast pantheon. For paladins who supposedly aren't tied to the lawful...
