    Dragon Blood for the Sacrament of Apotheosis (Spoilers)

    In Adventure 8, we learned that performing the Sacrament of Apotheosis requires the sacrifice of a lion, a whale, an eagle, and a dragon and using their blood to paint words on the subject of the ritual. This is awesome not only because of the four-elements theme (earth, water, air, and fire)...

    Plane Shift: how to let a PC be awesome without breaking the plot

    One of the PCs in my group has gotten deep into planar magic - she's an elemental warlock skyseer with the planeshifter PP and the planeshaper ED. (They're currently level 24 and are in the second half of adventure 10.) This gives her a lot of teleportation powers, including several ways to...

    Tips on running the assault on Torfeld Palace?

    So the constables have escaped The Dreaming by framing Thrisaldion for murder and having one of the PCs offer his personality fealty to the Voice of Rot. (No way that this can go badly...) They're now racing to the palace to try to prevent the assassination of King Aodhan. Looking over the...

    Schrödinger's Murder (Adv 9 spoilers)

    Schrödinger's Murder (Adv 9 spoilers) We're in the first Act of Adventure 9, wherein the constables are investigating a convoluted murder in The Dreaming, and they're having difficulty picking through all the layered levels of illusions and lies. At the moment, they've found evidence...

    fan-created objects, etc

    Hey, ya'll! I have a vague memory that a call went out for fan creations to feature in a Zeitgeist compilation, but I can't find the thread now. 1) Does anyone else have any idea what I'm talking about? 2) Did I miss the boat on this? I have some fun pictures I could submit.

    a docker song

    One of our PCs is a docker, and has the ability to grant saving throws by singing a line from a song about the team. So another player went ahead and wrote the lyrics... Sung to the tune of Gilligan's Island: Now sit right back, and I'll tell a taleof the constables in Flint: they'll seek you...

    Oddcog's Steam Suit, possible replacement w/Pardo

    So my party just threw down with the Danorans during the Coup Ex Machina scene, and it was pretty astonishing. Ulrik and Inez went down really quick from the bomb. Merton and Rush stayed up through most of the fight but ended up getting dropped as they tried to run. Lya activated her gatecrasher...

    Switching Editions Mid-Stream

    As you probably know, WotC is barely supporting it's 4e DDI tools these days, with no updates to the tools and a rejection of any new customers. We've already switched to playing without the charop guides (which we used largely for whittling down the 1200 feats available during level up), and...

    What if Rock Rackus dies?

    I have a PC Vekeshi Mystic who chose to kill Rock Rackus in adventure 3 when he thought he was ordered to by the Brotherhood. However, now we're in Adventure 5 and Rock Rackus is scheduled to make an appearance, and it looks like he'll be even more important later in the campaign. How would you...

    Isobel = Kasvarina?

    Hey, ya'll~ I've been attempting to reduce the number of Eladrin women in the story in order to reinforce the fact that they are special and rare. (One of my PCs is an Eladrin nationalist, so this plot thread is important to him.) Thus far, this has only really resulted in two changes: the...

    Flint's Finest Entry-level Field Agents

    I just wrapped up our fourth session of Zeitgeist, and we're having a great time! I thought it'd be fun to share what we're doing with other Zeitgeist fans (and creators), both to get ideas and see how things can differ from game to game, but I don't want to simply post the giant walls of text...

    Feylocks: source of power?

    One of the players in my game is a Fey-pact Warlock, and I'm working with her on her backstory. It occurred to me is that Warlocks gain their powers by cutting a deal with someone, which implies that this PC has a particular connection with a reasonably-powerful member of the Fey, possibly a...

    Maps and terrain for encounters

    Hey, everyone! I'm getting ready to run a Zeitgeist campaign, and I'm curious how you translate the beautiful maps in the modules into actual on-the-table gameplay, since it doesn't seem that full-size, printable versions are available. Do you just grab lined paper and sketch out the outlines...

    ONS vs Lores

    Hey, ya'll~ RPGNow just let me know that two new PDFs were added to my Zeitgeist subscription, both of which appear to be versions of the Act I hardcover. One PDF is labeled "ONS" and the other is labeled "Lores," but a casual perusal isn't showing me any difference between the two files. Does...
