Forum: Table Top Role Play

(Wiki link explaining alignments. I'm sure you can find some quiz online if makes you shout and cry TL;DR.) What is your alignment? I'm somewhere between Chaotic Good and Chaotic Neutral. I don't think law and tradition have any inherent self-value, but favor personal liberties, and don't...

Yeah, kind of like a bank, I guess. This is a good place to throw ideas into. If you've got an idea for a campaign, a weapon, puzzle, spell, class, or some other item dealing with any tabletop RPG, feel free to open it to the public. Of course, you may have ideas that you want to keep to...

Has anyone else come across a copy of one of the manuals? What did you think of it? I think it's horrible. It's barely recognizable: the spell system has been simplified into a number of (boring) powers you can cast either at will, once per encounter, or once per day. And rituals. Wizards,...

As per topic title. I personally hate Rangers, because they do nothing a Druid/Fighter couldn't do better. Rangers are forced into light armor by their Combat Specialty feature (without the possibility of using Ironwood Plate armor), can't tank like a fighter or wild shaped druid can, have...

Alright! Admit it! WHO plays? I know there are a lot of you out there, and I am very curious to see who and how many there are. I recently had something proposed to me, and I would like to see how possible it might be. Anyone play Magic Online through WOTC?

Would trying out a table top PC game be helpful for DnD beginners? Or spark more interest (maybe for the ladies)? So far someone recommended Neverwinter Nights. Any other suggestions?

Well time to add more threads to our glorious new forums. What RPGs do you all play other than D&D. I love my D&D as much as the next person but I am curious about other RPGs that are popular in our magnificent forum.

True Believers! As of SEPTEMBER 30th! There will be a table top gaming session held to test a number of theories concerning the ability of having table top rpgers working online. I have a number of mods and admins on board for this. IMPORTANT. Anyone interested, by all means! ...

Well as I mentioned in my GM ideas thread I'm working on a 28 Days Later 'Viral Zombie' campaign. The primary focus would be on survival, fast zombies, and a somewhat plausible, non-undead zombie plague. As with every campaign I've ever done, especially in D20, I've always tried to change at...

GM’ing/DM’ing/Storytelling is not an easy job. In fact in terms of workload in a tabletop roleplaying the GM has probably the hardest job of all. Running a game, telling a story and trying to keep all the players happy. I was thinking of making a series of threads presenting various hypotheticals....

What faith do your characters follow and why did you choose them? Or are you partial towards any particular one?

Now for those beginners, or those that might not be aware of the break down worded QUITE like this. Pros and cons of the different classes- FIGHTER Fighter Assets The fighter class provides plenty of tools for effective adventuring. Below are several assets you have going for you when...

We were deep beneath The Happy Beggar, a bed and breakfast for the downtrodden run by a sweet, retired, paladin couple, when I decided I needed a career change. This particular encounter was hard, and Tabitha was having her wizard's robes handed to her by an aggro shadar-kai and a pantload of dark...

For the record! We now have a place for use by "Roleplayers" for questions or concerns about anything involving Roleplay! No forum redirections or anything like it! If you have anything that you want to go over, a character idea, a concept or storyline that you might like, or something that you...

Does anyone know of a free program you can voice chat with multiple people at the same time? I though it would be handy for online roleplaying, but don't know if such program exists.

I'm curious...! Over Christmas break, I made a horrifying discovery about my parents. First, let me tell you a little about them. They're nice people in their early sixties. They like shopping, crime dramas, and spending copious amounts of time discussing D&D just so they can work in that...

I'm not sure if many of you remember me, however I used to come here a looonnnng time ago. Several years back, and was one of the original members. I come by time to time to check up on things, see how things are doing here, etc. However, my visit this time around is to see if anyone needs any help...
