    I made a terrible life decision…

    Love that your collection is so vast that it has its own guard dog!

    What is your favourite character type, (prof, class etc) And why?

    I rarely play clerics and tend to avoid wizards. Generally I favour bards, rogues and fighters (in no particular order) with all my characters tending to be good-hearted, though not always totally so. My currently active characters are a human rogue in Drakkenheim, a human witch-hunter in...

    Call of Cthulhu General Thread [+]

    I'm about halfway through planning a CoC campaign, set in 1924, and (dependent on investigator decisions) likely to involve Stonehenge area, Norfolk, Kent, Oxford, London and then leaving the UK for France, Italy and Egypt. Really looking forward to it, partly as a C20th historian and partly as...

    [D&D 5e 2024] Heroes of the Borderlands

    Really enjoying the development of the characters as the party begins to respect one another’s abilities. Leana has to be the nicest person in the world! Looking forward to seeing them escape the shake-down, or not...

    D&D 5E (2014) Dungeons of Drakkenheim: a dark fantasy sandbox in a ruined city

    Thanks for this review. I am currently playing in this excellent campaign and it’s a fantastic experience, with excellent roleplay opportunities as well as exciting (and often scary) scenarios. It is quite dark in tone, which I personally enjoy, and I’m blessed to have a great DM ( @TheSword )...

    Great contrast between the measured approach of the player characters and the "kick open the door and attack" of the NPC, Vinx!

    D&D General Best Adventure I Haven't Run?

    I have the privilege of being a player in Dungeons of Drakkenheim ( @TheSword is DM) and can endorse all the above. It's a superb adventure in every sense.

    This is great to read, especially with so many memories of running and playing KotB. The interaction between the characters, as they begin to meld into a team is superb.

    D&D General Whom has used the Egg of Coot?

    I used the “First Fantasy Campaign” as my Second Fantasy Campaign (!) after an initial homebrew. I think I was about 16-ish, so it would be around 1979 I guess. The Egg of Coot was an off-screen big baddie, and never figured directly. Players did meet the Earl of Vestfold though, and cleansed...

    D&D General Friday Fun: Now THIS Is D&D Rock!

    When bulettes bite hard and hit points are low, And dragons fly high but enlarge spells won’t grow And we’re changing our dice, getting different rolls Then owlbears, owlbears will tear us apart again. Owlbears, owlbears will tear us apart again.

    D&D 5E (2024) ADHD Medication Design Challenge: Let's skin this cat.

    Really, I'm not. I'm just telling it as it is. @Steampunkette is a brilliant DM and an awesome writer. It would be wrong to say that she is "wasted" on the more mechanical aspects of the game (classes, spells, archetypes etc.) because these things are crucial to all our play, and Rachel has a...

    D&D 5E (2024) ADHD Medication Design Challenge: Let's skin this cat.

    You are also really, really, really good at designing awesome cities and their surrounds, including adventures and encounters. I remember such a buzz from your Scorpion Lands game, where the cities were alive with factions, intrigue and personalities. I could literally see the flickers of...

    D&D 5E (2024) ADHD Medication Design Challenge: Let's skin this cat.

    I voted magic items, but what I'd really love to see the most would be an adventure, or, better yet, an adventure path from you!

    D&D General What weird CR8 (or greater monster) did the evil water elemental cultists set loose in the flooded lower levels of a desecrated temple?

    The evil water cultists didn't actually release anything. Or at least not of their own accord. Their role was to transport an aboleth into the flooded temple, for its own dark and evil purposes. And now it is exactly where it wanted to be.....
