Work should be more like gaming.Not Suitable For Work is a new addition to <a href="http://www.emeraldpresspdf.com/combatadvantage.html" target="_blank">Combat Advantage</a>, the free 4e series of PDFs from <a href="http://www.emeraldpresspdf.com" target="_blank">Emerald Press PDF Publishing</a>. Every month will have a theme to which any number of brainstorming exercises will be made. Each week or so, we will post a new thread for 4e material utilizing that theme and everyone is open to submit their concepts on EN World. The trick to this game is that you must rely on your memory of the game and cannot use any supplements, core rulebooks, or online references - simply use your innate knowledge of the game to create new material on the fly. Accuracy is not immediately required - these are brainstorms for new ideas, concepts, and add-ons to 4e. Throw in your ideas, no matter how crazy they are because you never know what they may lead to.NSFW is not a contest and is designed solely as a recreational design exercise for those of you stuck at work, school, or anywhere else on your lunch breaks with nothing to do. Waiting for that report to come back from management? Homework? Eww. Check out the theme and post your ideas for this week’s exercise. There’s no voting, no deadlines, or bad ideas. It’s all about having a little bit of fun while the boss isn’t looking. Enough talk!Build A Tiny RaceSize has always run the full gamut in fantasy since the first bedtime story was told thousands of years ago. Giants, dwarves, hobbits, and pixies are the finest examples of different sizes in fantasy adventures, yet the smallest characters ever have been left to the side. Not any more!This month we’re going to create a tiny player character race and for that we will need to look at how sizes work in 4e and develop material to allow a tiny-sized character to keep pace with any human, dragonborn, or dwarf in the party. Each stage of our exercise will involve open submissions posted on the forums of EN World or the <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Emerald-Press-PDF-Publishing/59649373770" target="_blank">Emerald Press PDF Publishing Facebook page</a> to be put to a vote before continuing on to the next stage. By month’s end, we will have a complete race of tiny creatures to mark down on your character sheet.Exercise #1: Tiny adventurers have to keep up with their larger counterparts (and even larger enemies). Speed, space, and reach are the three biggest issues for a tiny character to overcome so we're going to tackle speed first. Submit a means of movement for a tiny character allowing him or her to keep up with Small, Medium, or larger creatures. This alternate method can be realistic or magical and can provide a fly, climb, or other speed rating.Next, provide a racial power using this movement as a move action. It can be an attack or utility power.Post your ideas below. Remember these are exercises built for enjoyment and mental exercise of the game. Accuracy is not required on every little detail and some mistakes are forgiveable. (See?) If you'd like to post a revised version of your entry, just be sure to type in which version under Reason for Edits. If you want to post more than one entry, go crazy. It's all just in the name of having fun while you're not supposed to.</blockquote>
