Comment on 4lternity: Modular D&D 4e for Science Fiction RPGing by 1958Fury

I love this and will probably steal from it. A while back I put a lot of time into my own sci-fi campaign setting, which mostly involved reflavoring everything in 4e but keeping the math the same. Then I discovered Gamma World and decided I’d probably just use that next time I DM. But I like the look of 4lternity.

Comment on Character themes for “Madness at Gardmore Abbey” by Kynn

I’m letting people use them just for characters generated at higher level, since I don’t want to play through the earlier adventures. So basically at level 6, they start with all of the stuff. A level 6 character with a level 6 Common isn’t all that big of an edge, but it is edge enough. (It’s hard to totally balance out themes, so you just have to wing it and hope that it doesn’t throw things off.)

We had one guy play a Guild Organizer: a dwarf who promptly decided that the 1,800 gp he received for the good of the party was meant to be spent on sampling the local ales in large quantities.

Very cool! I plan to run this adventure soon, and I’ll keep these themes in mind.

I haven’t had time to read all of them yet, but I noticed that at least a couple give gold or a magic item as the level 5 feature. Given that this adventure is for slightly higher-level characters, how would that play out? Would characters be expected to take these themes at level 1 and come up through Reavers of Harkenwold and Cairn of the Winter King? Or did you envision these as themes to either be used by characters generated at higher level specifically for this adventure or picked up when they start the adventure?

This seems pretty cool at first blush. What spoilers can you give about the system?

I never played Alternity but I always thought the Seshayans looked awesome as a PC race in the ads and articles in Dragon.

I think the Gamma World style equipment and character advancement looks solid (and the classes look like they would blend with a GW game if you wanted to take it to the stars).

Comment on My first official rejection from Wizards of the Coast! by Erik

Well, at least you tried. And I am finding more and more that they are rejecting a lot of homebrew alterations to their classes and feats these days, preferring that those of us who do work at home do it on the flavor side only, focusing on fluff instead of crunch.

Than said, I really like your feats as they are designed for the Runepriest. And I am a serious fan of your Gamma World materials. I have even posted a link to your blog here in a Gamma World post I made. With your permission, I will permanently link to you as well.

Good Luck and Good Gaming,
Erik Fry

Comment on How to punish children for playing D&D “wrong” by Trake

I’d hate to see how he’d treat little boys that wanted to role-play female characters.

Or what dirty rotten name he’d assign to them.

Maybe he’d bring out the My Little Ponies to use as their miniatures.
