People around here really forget that most DMs should be capable of adding intrigue and depths themselves, instead of relying on being spoon-fed everything. It's a list of missions, not a comprehensive look at what each individual mission should entail or be. Most of what's on here -needs- to be modified from what's posted to even work correctly within a campaign. Go to Comment

This submission will likely be in the back of my mind when/if my players encounter a medieval bank. Go to Comment

Voted higher than I normally would just to spite those who would vote low because of in-game stats. Go to Comment

I can't believe I've never voted on this. Go to Comment

The Black Hangover- Infamous for selling a home-brewed ale that will temporarily blind a man during the following hangover.

It's enough for me to drop a member or two into a game as minor opponents, but not detailed enough for me to form is as a major group within a game I'd run.

I find that the most dedicated players get the most experience- they miss the least games, badger me to play the most, and overall, play better. Go to Comment

It's the job of the GM to maintain the health of his/her game. This is anything and everything from making sure all players are engaged and have their time in the limelight, to barring negative elements from the game, even smoothing over ruffled feathers, dealing with unruly SO's, and managing groups of people.

A good GM will interact with players 1 on 1, allowing them the time to discuss their thoughts, wishes, quibbles, and so forth. They will know what each player brings to the story and plot, and will try to dissuade players from making the entire story collapse into an entire mess. They will manage their players and their games so everyone can have fun.

Don't ever be afraid to step back and watch your players banter with one another (in character, of course). Go to Comment

I'd love to know more about the Fire-Oil. Is it naturally volatile. Does it have other applications? Is it toxic? Does it explode violently when touched to electricity?

Abaseth the Tailor:
A larger and more intelligent specimen of bone stitcher, Abaseth is capable of speech, although he is a quiet individual. Obsessed with his work of improving his work constantly, Abaseth refuses to discuss anything that does not involve subjects of his work, or potential subjects to improve.

Abaseth is in the employ of a powerful demon who uses him to augment his troops. Many fear Abaseth and his techniques, although they are the source of great success for his employer.

"Bones. Long. Lacking muscle. Can fix that. Will fix that. Stay still. No scream. Stronger after." Go to Comment

Found this in the daily HoH offerings.

Scrasa, why you submit so much stuff I want to blatantly steal for use in my campaign? :D Go to Comment

So, Abaseth made an appearance in tonight's campaign. My players were suitably disgusted and multiple references to the Chtuhlu mythos were made. He's now captured one of the characters who is going to undergo 'augmentation'.

Should be a great deal of fun. Go to Comment
