    Why do we need thieves??

    Honestly, because deep down, it's fun to scam the system for a fraction of the cost. let them spend thousands of gold pieces on magic items as you beat it with a bag of flour. afterall, hit it!

    D&D General Gargoyles need to be redone.

    I am thinking let's keep it simple. Disadvantage to perception/investigation checks, stonecunning negates. I am also looking for any public domain and/or creative commons for the blog which means...show me your favorite medieval grotesques/gargoyles. :D

    D&D General Gargoyles need to be redone.

    Nobody ever uses them beyond a speed bump, and honestly, I'd rather play a gargoyle over an aarakocra as a pc. so here's a quick brainstorm. so here's my thoughts. Gargoyles are sentient, ambulatory stone organisms sculpted from the architecture of faith, fear, or memory. They “grow” from...

    D&D General Living Greyhawk - tell me about your games?

    I heard there is a bunch of stuff created by the Living Greyhawk back in the day that can't be found, much less used, from this golden era, due to legal reasons. I'm seriously curious. So tell me about your Living Greyhawk stuff? Bonus points if you can figure out a way to make it legally...

    I learned how to make gunpowder from GURPS High Tech. I also learned of the Duck's Foot Pistol from the same book. GURPS Hight Tech basically gave me my first primer on the development of modern warfare. I really liked Middle Ages 1 and really wish that series had continued. I'm glad to own...

    er where does it say this? ************************ I like the way GURPS Banestorm does Goblins a lot. They can be sneaky, but they are also communal and all mad scientists at heart. I once made a goblin duelist/swashbuckler that was an absolute blast to play. They are the default short...
