Forum: Table Top Role Play

Hey all! I plan on keeping a thread for JUST the updates on who is playing what to help keep it all straight! THUS Far...! I have Manhattan, SGI, GOre, and Myself, so, one more unlucky player and we will be good to go. Two if we have too. I know what SGI wants to play, Manhattan,...

NPC Repository I thought this would be a nice idea for us tabletop roleplayers. I know how difficult it can be to think up good NPCs on the go. So my goal for this thread is for players to post up various NPCs that other members can pick up and use in their games. I have a couple to write up on...

I came across something that brought back a lot of memories here the other day, and I was curious about everyone else out there. As a DM, I bring a lot of things to my games, and I try and take all the motivation from as many sources as possible. Years ago, there was a book called 10,000...

When you're new to the D&D game, the sheer variety of character sheets available, both in print and online, can bring on a headache. Even after you've chosen a character sheet, you face the task of filling it out. The task isn't terribly difficult, but it's hardly intuitive. That's because...

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...

Now then, for those experienced gamers, and for those gamers just getting into something like D&D. This is for you. I pulled this from the Wizard's website for reference, and it's VERY true. I have this friend we'll call Nate. Nate is a successful attorney who owns a home with a view of...

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.

I guess I won't have time to start a game for another month or more. But at some point I probably will and wanted to talk about formats. Now that standard forum RPG format is player driven freeform, where each player more or less is a demigod within their post. Having variable amounts of...

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....

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,...

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...

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...

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

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.

Well, my first post in this new Forum which I've been awaiting for quite a while. I plan on making it my new home (a migration from the Gundam Subforum). Anyway, I've currently working on planning a very large scale Legend of the Five Rings campaign that will probably cover a time frame of...
