The Message Rat was good company. Silas had not bothered to undo the Speeke, Rattus Rattus command, and so the talkative rat held forth on any topic that caught his imagination, which ranged from the problem with young rats today to the rat sausage scandal in the Guards' canteen that had upset the entire rat community, not to mention the Guards.

hairylarry commented on their status"The birth of the ORC license was driven by OGL 1.1" - Paizo’s Jim Butler discusses ORC, OGL 1.1, and more
...
Q. On the topic of the ORC, what is Paizo's philosophy on open-source gaming, and what do you feel the strengths and weaknesses of the model are?
Jim Butler: There is a much lower barrier of entry for fans to become publishers. Intellectual property laws can be complicated, and the Open RPG Creative (ORC) license will allow fans to become publishers without worrying about whether a particular entry in a book is considered open content or not. Since each publisher in the license provides their own SRD, new publishers can use that material in their work to create something that’s greater than the original.

hairylarry commented on FollowMeAndDie's statusI began playing RPGs back in 1977 when the Holmes Blue Box Basic came out. We played many other TSR RPGs that existed & new ones as they came out.
We also dabbled at least once in several other non-TSR RPGs.
I've played even more since 2014 when I attended cons regularly.
Since D&D was my first RPG, it sort of defined what an RPG was and hit harder than all the others. I was more of a science fiction fan back then, but still played more AD&D than any other RPG.
I still run and play older versions of D&D. However, I will run more non-WOTC games in the future.

hairylarry commented on their statusIf you can have a natural 20 and an unnatural 20 how about a supernatural 20?Jan 28 '236 0
Jan 26 '23I've invented the supernatural 20 spell that can only be used once between long rests. On an important roll you can instead cast your Supernatural 20 spell and automatically roll a nat 20.
Jan 28 '23It's also a meta spell in that the spell affects the game mechanics. So maybe it should be thought of as a perfect attack spell but I love the name Supernatural 20.
Jan 28 '23So when you cast the Supernatural 20 spell the attack affected automatically results in a perfect attack exactly as if the atteacker had rolled a nat 20.You need to sign in to comment

Nov 22 '22We started with Milyagon, a rural village that used to be a military fort. I drew a map for the fort and the town. Wilken Woods is on the map and it became a magic forest across the river from Milyagon. Now through the woods and across another river and we're adventuring in Tobbins Shire. So definitely bottom up for our world building. And I just build as we play.

Exilian says,
There's a tradition of doing Druid characters in northern European groves surrounded by bears and wolves, BUT CONSIDER:
> Shoreline druid who dances in sea-foam & spends time looking after barnacles
> Antisocial desert druid whose familiar is a golden mole and who buries themselves in sand during the day
> Pallid cave druid, pale and wide-eyed, surrounded by olms and swimming through narrow passageways
> Wetland druid who summons saw-sedge barriers on their enemies and has a bittern with a magically enhanced boom-noise
> Confused tundra druid with lemmings in every pocket who can't get over how people manage without hibernation
> Fast-running steppe druid who whistles to herds of Saiga antelope and helps lead them to water in bad years
> Portly Antarctic druid whose existence philosophy is Be A Penguin and who collects pretty rocks to give their friends
> Cloud forest treetop druid who grows a bromeliad on their shoulder & has a small cloud of hummingbirds around them

... all four cavaliers were gone, back into the River. Harrow found herself imagining them in her mind's eye:rising out of those turbid waters before the Saint of Duty with his spear and his sword, something looming behind him, bigger than the eye could comprehend. Bluer than death; unimaginable, advancing to greet the four dead swordsmen and the Lyctor.
She had not said goodbye. Harrow so rarely got to say goodbye.
