I'm bored to tears by his story, he thinks its original, but I fail to see the originality in it, its played out material. He's been swearing up and down that its going to pick up, its been six months, it hasn't and I'm about to quit...What do you all do when you put on your DM hat? I'll be running lower magic, in order to compensate I'm thinking about giving two more skill points and letting the players pick two non restricted skills to add to their class skill list. I'm doing it this way because it appears to be what WOTC did for their low magic settings.I've only got two players to start, and only one of these has experience, is this enough? Where can I find more?I've got a story in my head, but I'm tring to be realistic, I will not railroad. If they go off into left field as long as "A" story is being told I'll let them. I've a world at my finger tips what need is there to force a plot?Any suggestions? Am I being to open?</blockquote>
