I’ve been pretty sick for the past week or so, but this week rather than just cancel Jacob was generous enough to run a Dungeon World one-shot (probably). Maria played The Blackguard, I played The Paladin (making it I think the first paladin I’ve ever played), and Melissa did a bit of playtesting with our upcoming rogue. Since […]
A few weeks ago Maria hit me up in chat, asking what I thought about making a dragon “class” for Dungeon World. My immediate thought was yeah I think that could work, which was quickly followed up with me throwing out some 16ish moves. Here’s more or less my thought process as best I can […]
Over on my vrock post, Svafa asked if I’d ever considered making a sort of monster manual for Dungeon World, because he enjoys the monsters I cook up and/or the modifications I make to existing monsters. Up to that point I hadn’t, but I am now. Before I talk about some changes I’ll be making […]
Cast Humal (level 7 wrathful cambion wizard) Corzale (level 7 dwarf war cleric) Sumia (level 7 elf rogue/ranger) Kuhnja’bi (level 7 human w/ devil-in-the-details fighter) Cenric (level 7 human fighter) Summary After cleaning out Zyrxog’s lair, Humal, Sumia, and Cenric followed Corzale back to the temple she was staying at. Corzale had warned the priests […]
This isn’t a useful question, because when it comes to characters, games can have varying levels of complexity, and can also focus on different things. So what makes a character “good” in one system may not be “good” in another. Plus, gaming groups will have their own preferences, which can also change over time. For example, in […]
Cast Humal (level 7 wrathful cambion wizard) Corzale (level 7 dwarf war cleric) Sumia (level 7 elf rogue/ranger) Cenric (level 7 human fighter) Summary Searching Zyrxog’s bedchamber, the party discovered a chest brimming with various coins and gemstones, numerous tomes on transmutation magic and Dovin, and a ledger written in a language that none of […]
In the final dungeon in The Hall of Harsh Reflections (the fourth adventure in the Age of Worms adventure path), it’s possible for the characters to fight a vrock. In case you don’t know what a vrock is, it’s a sort of demonic creature that looks like a cross between a humanoid and more-or-less a vulture (varies between […]
This one’s easy: play the game. In my teenage years, I remember my then-group having trouble learning Shadowrun, so one weekend I brought the book over to a friend’s house, we made characters as we learned how to make them, and we learned everything else while playing. So, for example, we didn’t know how combat worked until a […]
Cast Humal (level 7 wrathful cambion wizard) Corzale (level 7 dwarf war cleric) Sumia (level 7 elf rogue/ranger) Cenric (level 7 human fighter) Summary Humal determined that the symbol on the floor was a sort of magical trap, that would at the least cause whoever triggered it to hallucinate for a period of time. Not […]
Since David is usually the GM, I’m going to answer this RPGaDay question. There are actually two instances I can think of. The first was during the Ravenloft game that David was running using Dungeon World. I was playing The Witch, because I wrote most of the class and wanted to see how it held up over […]
