    Have you been disillusioned? (Best illusion stories!)

    The rise of "Disillusioned" threads has been making me ponder illusions in my campaign. They seem to be a great resource for tricking the players and characters alike! So tell me- how have illusions been used in your campaigns? What's your funniest, scariest, or most rat-bastardly story about...

    Under the bridge it waits, the troll

    Howdy folks! I made this here troll out of sculpey and a salsa-jar lid for a charity auction over at Nothingland. I thought I'd post it here for your amusement. It's about 3" tall, and the base is about 3.5" wide. There's more sculpts in the link in my signature, if you're curious.

    html in the text?

    Say, is there any way to insert HTML into the text? I could have sworn in some previous incarnation of the board there was an option to block html or something... is there any way to insert it nowadays?

    Racecraft- Players making their own races... Now with an exciting offer!

    Hey there folks! A while back (I think it was over a year ago), I posted an idea of mine- a campaign in which the players designed the races. I had come up with a quick guide that I called Racecraft, which would guide the players through the process of creating a race. Anyways, I recently...

    [random idea] Getting Rid of the Monk

    In my campaigns, I like to stay within the Core Rulebooks as much as possible. That said, I'd like to get rid of the monk. It's not that the monk doesn't fit any archetypes, but I believe that those roles could be better suited for other classes. I was thinking of turning the monk's abilities...

    Downtime and Training

    So I was thinking of ways to establish training during "downtime" in my campaign. This is what I've got for now. Tell me what you think, and what you do with downtime in your campaigns! Hey there dudes. I'm introducing a new rule into the game, which is the concept of downtime: Downtime...

    Breakstone's Clay Thread

    Hello folks! I figured it'd be fun to start a thread for all my new clay endeavors. You can see some of my other clay in my web site (there's a link in my signature, as well). I'm no professional (heck, I barely qualify as a college student!), but I just plum enjoy making these figures. My...

    Changing my name?

    Hello! After the recent tragedy of the tsunami, I've just plum felt... uncomfortable posting under this username. Is there a possibility that I could change my name? If not, it's alright, but I just wanted to see my options. Thank you!

    Expanding Skills- Knowledge and Contacts Subskills

    Hello there! So the other night, I was thinking about D&D, and I was thinking about Feng Shui (the game, not the philosophy). In Feng Shui, skills have three applications: the actual, physical use of the skill, and two subskills- Knowledge and Contacts. Knowledge in a skill shows how much a...

    Hello folks! I'm in my first year at UC Santa Cruz, and I was just a-wondering if anyone here happened to live on the campus... So... any EN Worlders at UC Santa Cruz who would be possibly interested in gaming?

    Spread-Out Levelling: Giving the characters more, for less

    So the other day I was pondering levelling. I like levelling, and I think it's fun for the characters, but I feel fast levelling changes the game too rapidly. Then again, slow levelling can become boring for the players. So here's what I was thinking: I figure each level "upgrade" is divided...

    Racecraft: Players making their own races

    I've always wanted to try a campaign in which the players make up the core races. I'm not sure why, but the idea has always just plum tickled my fancy. So I was bored and I typed up this guide to Racecraft. What do you think? Here's a link to the fully-formated mode...

    [house rule] Arcana Unearthed Class Armor Bonus

    So I've been pondering dividing Armor Class Bonus of Armor into AC and DR. I noticed that, in effect, AC went down. It was suggested to me that I give classes a Class Armor Bonus. So this is what I'm pondering (mostly based off of d20 Modern's approach). Magister, Runethane, Witch: 1: +0 2: +1...

    Kung-Fu Techniques for the Drunken Monk

    So in the newly started Arcana Unearthed (that's the Monte Cook one) campaign, one of the players is playing a Giant Oathsworn who's basically a Drunken Master type of martial artist, swearing off all material goods (except for alcohol) while attempting to recover his past. I think a big...

    Some new races: Golems and Prayags

    So now that I'm a player, I've been coming up with all these DM-related ideas. One of these is a number of races that I'd like to put into a future campaign. I've been more into a rules-mood recently, so I've given each race a brief description. I've also been using racial levels, like in Arcana...

    Quick Little Campaign Ideas

    So now that I'm a player instead of a DM, I find I have a lot more time to come up with campaign ideas. Ironic, eh? Anyways, I need some sort of output for all these ideas in my head, so I figured I'd start a thread for Quick Little Campaign Ideas... campaign premises of a paragraph length...

    More clay heads!

    So tonight I bought some more Sculpey, which is polymer clay. I started playing with it in my hands, and I realized I could make old people faces really well! So I made these kindly old folks: Ernie: Weasel: Barnaby: Gordon: Pete: and Gaffy:
