    Race diversity among chapters

    Another option I've seen is races that are fairly "new" as their race, and thus have a separate origin from the rest of their race from other continents. HQ has a MWE culture (Children of Camulous) and a Barbarian culture (Vakkar) where an entire population of people were mass Race Changed (By a...

    New HQ web page

    Thus far only the 2014 Newsletters load. Otherwise good stuff!

    Join My Krewe As We Cross The Planes To Unknown Adventure

    This looks like a lot of share divisions, but I like the cut of your jib. I bet a six-armed person sets a terrifyingly complex trap. If my duties permit, this look like it may be a good excuse to get out of my taver...office. Which is in a tavern, full disclosure. -Dorgun of the Osprey...

    Purchasing Assassinates

    1. You are correct. 2. Racial assassinate does not require backstabs to purchase at all. 3. Correct. There is no limit to the number of Assassinates you can have as long as it is not greater than half the number of Backstabs you have purchased.

    Hallo

    No religions, churches or Gods in Alliance. You could be mercenaries working for the crown or various guilds, but religion and churches are absent from our games. You would also need to make characters specific to the Alliance game. If you and your friends want to play people with the same...

    Hallo

    If you're in the Harrisburg area you're in range of the Gettysburg, HQ and NJ chapters. Jovunn up there can answer any questions to Gettysburg and if you wander down to the NJ and HQ sections of the board you'll find people who can help with any questions specific to those chapters. On weapons...

    The Case for 20 Ranks of Create Trap

    1. Not at this time. 2. I know of a couple people who've done it in the past, but they spirit forged them away last rules change.

    Re: the role of plot/hobby vs. "employment"

    Heh, I was head of plot at the time. I handled it, but was a bit annoyed that it happened. If that had been the only incident of such things I knew about I'd dismiss it. Thankfully I haven't had to deal with that stuff in a few years. :)

    Re: the role of plot/hobby vs. "employment"

    You've summarized my point better than I've been able to Yames. Thanks. :)

    Re: the role of plot/hobby vs. "employment"

    I agree with you Norman, I'm somewhat confused though in that you seem to be under the impression that I don't have these measures in place as well for gauging engagement.

    Staff Core

    Just wandered onto this thread hoping it was referring to wizard themed hip-hop.

    Re: the role of plot/hobby vs. "employment"

    I don't think the intent here is for only plot staff to have a voice on this topic. I appreciate what you've brought to the discussion and I hope more non-staffers feel free to comment and share experiences. :)

    Re: the role of plot/hobby vs. "employment"

    I'm totally willing to admit that I have bias based on personal experience here, and I'm honestly happy that it seems you guys have never encountered some of the glorious jerkfaces I have. I've straight up had a player yell at me and use the "I'm a paying customer" line after approaching them...

    Re: the role of plot/hobby vs. "employment"

    Is it your contention that someone who does something as a hobby isn't adding as much value as someone being paid to do the job and views it as employment? I consider it a hobby, and at the risk of sounding immodest I'm very skilled at writing for LARPs. Part of that, at least for me, is...

    Standing Guard in a LARP

    A monster kicking down your ward at 4:30 in the morning isn't fun. Waking up to find your cabin was covered in traps at 4:30am can be fun (or so I'm told). If I've got somebody feeling frisky after everyone's gone to bed I'll give them something to do, but I shy away from big loud combat in the...

    Heh, I have a PC from like 2004 that I totally forgot existed.

    Monster Slayer Ettiquette

    Ok, what if we added a layer to differentiate Race Reaver and Monster Slayer from Auras? Idea: Slayers and Reavers add a flat +10 damage to weapon swings against their (monster or race) target when the carrier is used. You MUST use the Slayer/Reaver's carrier to get this damage bonus. Example...

    Monster Slayer Ettiquette

    Just a blurb in the rulebook under carriers to the effect of: "weapon blows with a carrier that matches the PC race or Monster Type listed on your monster or character card will effect you for the damage called. This overrules any other carrier immunities on your card." Example: Bob the NPC is...

    Monster Slayer Ettiquette

    Can I say "meewee" rather than "Mystic Wood Elf"? Asking for a friend... :P

    The Ashbury Times is Now Available!

    Sir Grim, This challenge doesn't involve using the blood and spirit magics found before the destruction of Stonehollow does it? Because the only reason I feel good at all about that decision was because those horrors would have been destroyed along with the city. -Spymaster Dorgun
