Twin Spell

Metamagic is fun.  Just plain fun.  Even if all you're doing is firing off a blasting spell, metamagic is fun.  After all,  how else are you going to fire off multiple lightning bolts on your turn?

Reward Choices

It's always good to give your players choices.  The tougher they are for the players to resolve the better.  Of course not all players are going to be aligned in such a way that moral quandaries will give them any pause at all.  These players require a different sort of tact and motivational technique, but this does not mean you can't give them difficult decisions. Anyone who wants more than one thing can be given a difficult decision.  You just have to find the two things they want most and you have the choice.

On another unrelated note some of you may have notice that I've been rather remiss in updating on the schedule I set for myself.  This is because I have had another project in the works.  If you enjoy gaming or gaming music or just watching someone perform like a trained monkey for your amusement you may find it to your liking. 

See it here http://youtu.be/aA3dOlgPxhM

I would also like to announce that due to this new project I will eventually stop posting posters.  Eventually.  I still have quite a few months worth of posters even if I stick to schedule.  After I run out of posters I will continue to post game quotes as they accumulate in sufficient numbers to be worthy of a post.

Normal

Your PCs are not normal.  Never forget that.  Of course this has both pros and cons.  The pro is that your players know their characters are a cut above the rest.  Uncanny heroes destined for greatness.  The downside is they may have a lot of trouble interacting with the regular citizens of the setting who aren't quite a crazy as they are.

Necromancy

Necromancy lends itself so much more to humor and revenge than other spell schools.  Especially when you realize that you can command the resulting animated corpse to do anything.  Making your enemies dance for your amusement is just the beginning.

LARPing

Who would have thought sports fans would be in to LARPing.  I guess it is just a matter of finding the right thing to LARP about to get them involved.  Welcome to Foosball larp!

Obesity

Obesity is a touchy subject.  More so for people like gamers whom have it as a stereotype of their chosen form of entertainment.  Best not to bring it up, especially not in game.

Has it been a week already?

I've been so busy with other stuff I didn't realize it had been a week since I posted.  And by other stuff I mean game prep and video games.  So here's a little bit of a reminder that will hopefully jolt me into updating on a more regular basis.

Trophy Collectors

There's one in every starting D&D group.  You know the type.  The one who decides that their character's quirk will be harvesting body parts off their dead enemies and displaying them in all manner of ways.  Of course the important part is not taking a unique body part, but in finding a unique way to display said pieces so everyone knows how much of a badass you are.

Innuendo

Innuendo is quite the staple of many a roleplaying group.  It's all in the positioning.  Or in how dirty minded you are.  Or in your intellectually humor level.  Either way, it's all fun.
