Re: Bad guy dos and donts

That's why we have one set of game rules for everyone. We do, but this hasn't been how it's been done. Good players appear to be defined as the ones who do nothing, cause no action, and in short play the part of an NPC or as those who are sufficiently in the favor of certain GMs to be considered su...

Re: Thanks

Quite nice indeed :). It feels like a whole new game! Leveling seems to be quite difficult though, and dying rather easy. But I definitely like how the monsters are spread out now, it really makes the map come alive. Partying and experience sharing is possible, and they already add an additional tea...

Re: Tol Vanima

Meanwhile on board the decks of the Tol Vanima, a tall but slim figure may be seen balancing like a bird up on the rigging. With one limb touching down and the other outstretched, he leans forwards gracefully giving off a buoyant air. Suddenly, a big black bird alights, amidst a flapping of wings. &...

Re: The Government of Troll's Bane

This I do confirm. As a gesture of my goodwill, I have undertaken this step of agreeing to act with the utmost pacifism.

May those who perhaps harbor doubt be assured, I wish only to play music in this town and if possible bring back the days when people had smiles on their faces.

What do you do when your role-play is interrupted in game? What if the interrupter is intent on displacing you from the roleplaying scene altogether?

I strongly disagree. An idealistic character has every bit the place that a more "down to earth" character might have. Elves and dwarves is a good example of this. Much of fantasy storytelling revolves around the clash and contrast between the two precisely because elves represent all that...
