Dusky, you remind me of a T-shirt I once saw: "I'm not a gynecologist, but I'll take a look anyway"

in What to do when a PC becomes possessed... August 2010

If it were one of my characters getting possessed, I would probably let the GM run the character for that session. If the possession persists, then I might get in touch with the GM between sessions and try to get an idea of what the demon or soul w…

Hugs if you want 'em, Jim. Though this may give me a chance to post a few things before you totally outclass me. ;)

in 2010 ENnie Awards for the win!!! August 2010

It's an honour to be nominated, if for no other reason than it gets your name out to even more potentially interested folks. But it kicks ass to win. ;) Go y'all!

Where'd it go, then? ;)

in Stealing Jim's Idea (for a repository of sorts) July 2010 edited July 2010

So an OP version of GM Gems? Totally in. I've tried to share a few things on the forums, but they really would be more appropriately housed as part of a campaign. Edited to add: Florimel doesn't read the forums, but I know for a gosh-darned fac…

in Dealing with Dangerous Encounters & PC Death in Your Campaign July 2010

I wouldn't call it off-topic - it's a great example of how this idea might help soften the blow of the initial PC's death, and we were initially talking about how to deal with that possibility. The idea also fits in pretty well with other advice …

in Dealing with Dangerous Encounters & PC Death in Your Campaign July 2010

Dusk, I love that idea of people rolling up alts and weaving them into the story background, and I may well steal that for my In Vitro campaign.

in High magic campaigns July 2010

There are levels and levels of "magic-rich". Piers Anthony's Xanth series is the best example I can think of where the world is most definitely "magic-rich" - everyone has SOME sort of magical talent - but it doesn't mean everyone is super-powered.

in Hello July 2010

I have nothing useful to say except that I'm a fan of Tom Smith and cannot help but think of FENTON THE DEATH SHEEP FROM HELL.

in Duskreign seeks to win friends and influence people July 2010

Ha! Hi there, Duskreign, my real name's Katie Simpson (the handle comes from the plethora of characters I've played over the years - I didn't want to play favorites by using one of their names as my handle here). When I first discovered Obsidian…

in Dealing with Dangerous Encounters & PC Death in Your Campaign July 2010

Another observation: Duskreign is obviously running a very realistic, "gritty" campaign. And there are folks who are into that. I might even enjoy that sort of campaign as long as I knew going in that it was going to be that way - AND if I were ru…

in Dealing with Dangerous Encounters & PC Death in Your Campaign July 2010

For my part, I happen to love character generation. I happen to have a handful of 4th-ed characters that are fleshed out through 5th level and I have a pretty good idea of where they'd go from there - 2 of them are fleshed out through 30th. So whi…

in Implementing Player Journals, Other questions July 2010

In "The Sun Eaters", we're all using the Adventure Log. If my character were inclined to keep copious notes, she'd instead be using the forums (Florimel is an Ascendant, mostly for the increased number of campaigns). The forums would allow her to …

in Emissary, cool stuff... July 2010

So...any plans for making OP swag available for purchase by folks like me who aren't necessarily up for the actual talking-to-people part of the job but would like to passively promote the site? ;)

in every PLAYER I add can edit everything WHY? June 2010

When I was playing around with a test campaign, I found that players added to it could modify any NPCs created after they were added to the game. I am not entirely sure that there *is* a setting to "fix" that. Back when I was starting out on the…

in Music in your game June 2010

I was thinking more on this, and I think a soundboard would be an epic solution. Small snippets of song, just enough to set the mood, and possibly a little easier to navigate quickly. Though I suppose thoughtful naming of snippets would allow it t…

BrokenClock, I haven't yet, but you've reminded me of this: http://nodwick.humor.gamespy.com/ffn/index.php?date=2010-02-24

in Depth June 2010

Oooh, this reminds me that I could probably pull QUITE a lot from Peter S. Beagle's writings. I know for a fact that if I crib from works other than "The Last Unicorn", nobody will catch it. And heck, even if I *do* swipe the likes of Schmendrick …

in Music in your game June 2010

I've only played with one GM who used music in his campaign. It's a Werewolf campaign set in an alternate modern-day Dallas (you know it's alternate because the Trinity River is pure and pristine). Since he chose to set it back in the mid 1990s, h…

in Share the best elements of your campaign June 2010

If this concept works, I will be tremendously proud of it. So I simultaneously want to share it for inspiration and submit it for critique. It's inspired by a weird dream I had back when I was having all sorts of weird dreams: "The Song of Core…

in A question for the DMs June 2010

I don't own a laptop, so OP at the time of play is not an option. Moreover, I don't like it when other people use laptops, and I've had to use one to run RPGA mods before and I hated it. For me, there's just something about using a computer rather…

in Designing Fantasy Countries and Cultures May 2010

...I will be quietly counting the days until my players figure out that Vidria is climatically, and almost geographically, identical to the United States of America. Environmental details are what spook me the most (I really want to get them "right…

in Gaming parents May 2010

Some of my least favorite gaming sessions were with people who brought their small children along. Part of it was because they didn't corral the kids thoroughly enough for my tastes. Another part of it is because I *do not* do well with small ch…

in Whats your favorite magic item? May 2010

Second the magical shelter vote. My favorite low-level items in 4th edition D&D are the everlasting rations and the instant campsite. Now, if you're asking which item I'd like in real life, I'd have to vote for the 3.5 version of the Handy H…

in Campaign Planning December 2009

The one piece of advice I've got, given my utter lack of experience in running a game, is to be as flexible as you can with your ideas. Which means a lot of asking yourself what your highest-level goals are, and trying to figure out if there are mu…

in "Evil campaigns" December 2009

I never saw any of the "Saw" movies, but that sounds like something that would've happened in them. See, I'd put the HEROIC party in that position. Evil is de rigeur for the DM! (muahahahaha)
