Café de Nuit

Can't hotlink to it, but copy & paste the url and it should come up.

I'd have to say I like it, but I don't think it's better or worse overall than any previous editions of the game. Just different. I my own game I've found the happiest way of balancing the "1st lvl PCs get magic weapons" bit is to say that a +1 sword isn't necessarily magical. I can just b...

It was somewhere in the Gazetteer Metaplot thread (http://www.fraternityofshadows.com/foru ... php?t=2704), but damned if I can find the exact post.

(in response to the "S's bracer downloads her memories into a clone theory", posted by myself) BUT... You were the first with the "downloaded memories into the bracer" so you definitely kick ass! Congratulations! I'm afraid I wasn't. ^^; After glancing back through the earlier p...

Thanks Rotipher - that looks a thousand times better! I hadn't checked the other FoS netbooks, as I haven't re-downloaded them since loosing everything in a PC crash recently.

Evening, or morning, or night all... I just downloaded VRS Doppelgangers, after some time away from the site, and I'm really impressed. But it's looking a bit odd on my screen. Some of the text is fine, but for things like headings and page headers/titles, I'm getting a rather ugly Arial result. I h...

Wait... a mysterious S- in EtCR?

She has returned!

I´m not sure but the duckbunny, armadillephant, owlephant and biclops all strike me as not meant serious. In defence of the Duckbunny.... wow, I never thought I'd say that. I remember this one from the month it came out in Dragon. Part of a whole article on less common crossover monsters, which inc...

Considering that most Paridoner monks probably multiclass in Cleric or perhaps Fighter (or even Aristocrat) not that many. But Slow Fall(5th), Wholeness of Body(7th) and Diamond Body (11th) are already a bit of a stretch. I don't find these half as hard to work in - they're "just" physica...

Complete with notes on how he's seen Sri Raji swamis walk barefoot over hot coals without harm. Of course, they insist on wrapping it all up in mystical mumbo-jumbo, but it's great proof of what the human body can accomplish when the mind is willing! Mind over matter, my good sir. I don't see Monks ...

Take up Bartitsu?

Based purely on completing the first game, you'd have to add a huge amount to make her into a deserving Dark Lord - far more than anyone else. Not that it can't work, or mightn't be nifty, but it's more than my thoughtmeats are up to at the moment.

Which could be handily resolved with a percentile roll where you have a 75% chance of hitting the ghost.

Breaking down to 50% chance that you're immaterial, 25% chance that you're material but hit the ghost anyway, 25% chance of being material and the blow going right through them.

For Dragon, try a line that goes back 31 years - it started in June 1976. Dungeon kicked off just over ten years later, September '86. That's what saddens me most I think. I'll miss the magazines for their content, but they've been a staple of gaming since the beginning. They've outlasted pretty muc...

May well hold off on this then. My FLGS had both Warrior Within & Two Thrones going second hand when I went in there - I bought the first with the plan to grab the second once I clear it. The whole Empress of Time bit from WW doesn't really fit Ravenloft, so I hadn't thought of going farther afi...
