A nice twist on plot hooks. Some philosophers will tell you that there is no such thing as a "chance" meeting or encounter, but that is neither here nor there :) Go to Comment

Brings back fond memories for me of playing with my GI Joe action figures with my buds!! Go to Comment

I'd comment, but would just repeat what everyone else has already said... :)

Good one! Go to Comment

I can only echo what Dossta said because he said it well. And add an "awesome!" I'm sad that I missed this quest. Go to Comment

*Sigh* I may have to become a worshiper. UU lol

This god is actually subtly deep. Go to Comment

There is a lot of subtle wisdom shared here. 4,5,6 especially (for me) Go to Comment

The premise is indeed juicy and fun, the bug's execution, less so. I'm liking OmegaDraco's idea on the techincal aspects of the Wasp, and would also like some of those same questions answered. Go to Comment

Huh? If you're asking what I think you're aksing, then it is a thousand score years not a thousand, so twenty thousand years. And what is meant there is that for a god, it is not such a long time.

I love the Gazebo story! Thank you, you made me laugh. Go to Comment

"Hammer hires the party to kill a super villain who wants him dead, in exchange for helping them build their own base of operations." Dossta

"Perhaps he puts in a good-old dead-man's switch to protect himself. If he dies, various destruct mechanisms are invoked." valadaar

Good work lads, those two lines make this npc seem a bit more exciting and dynamic for game-play, Opens up a whole new can of worms.


I'm mixed on him to be honest otherwise. I love supers to death, but also enjoy playing supers with some modicum of verisimilitude and realism (yes, i know, i know), if that makes any sense. Using this guy would involve a *wink* *wink* approach to game-play. Hey guys, check it out, a "Villain's Lair Builder"

But, if tongue-in-cheek is the order of the day, then by all means, he rocks as an npc. Go to Comment

I'm just starting to read this, and will re-read and re-comment again, but in the meantime, I'm fascinated with the ores and the overall voice here! Welcome to the Citadel, clyde. Go to Comment

I like this for its clean, straightforward simplicity. A nice one-shot game, yet with additional avenues to explore (the rest of the Snake People's magic hoard for example). If I use this, I would change the orcs and amazons to something else, but thats just personal preference.

Nice plot. Fun to be had for PCs.

Ah, now I realize why orcs and amazons. My bad. Way to combo the freetext challenges! Go to Comment

Greedy, baby Beholders!

I like the Motivation blurb a lot. Each one can be uniquely ambitious, cunning and conniving. I immediately picture a sycophantic Eye latching on to the party, for some reason, then dove-tailing into Eye for an Eye plot-hook.

Good to see you posting again, val!

Plot Hooks titles are fun to make-up for these...The Eyes Have It, Eye'll Be Seeing You, Mud in your Eye...etc Now I'll have to think up some of the actual hooks for these Go to Comment

Certainly no need to challenge! A perfectly interesting and useful idea thread. If nothing else, "Magic rope" in fantasy can now have a "see-and-feel" logic behind it. PC: "So what is my new magic rope made of exactly? Whats this special filament-of-the-gods/wizards/dwarves/etc?"--GM: "Well, its made of *this* stuff actually".

Well said, Forganthus. Oh, and funny too. Struggling on how to vote on this though :p
