Re: I did a thing! Consider donating!

Honestly Rucht, I will be open and without fear of shaming: A small, well written RPG is useful for me because I can drop it on ChatGPT 4 and have it act as the Story teller. The more concise the rules the better. Thus, I pledged So, may I suggest that you actually change the 300% stretch goal to ac...

Re: Ideal Ravenloft Videogame

I agree with much of what you said, but I would stand on a point I disagree with: I strongly believe the game should take place within a single domain. At least for first timers.

I don't know... it sounds a bit too grindy for it to be fun for me.

Re: Ideal Ravenloft Videogame

I think Ravenloft has been converted to a module for NWN. (Neverwinter nights)

Here I found one two-part:

Re: Additional monsters for Hazlan

Actually, constructs gone wrong after their creator died - or constructs subtly sabotaged by rivals to eventually go berserk and attack their creator and kill him - make good additions to Hazlan. Flesh golems, that have a good chance to go gaga, are a good addition IMO and ... they don't have to be ...

Re: Additional monsters for Hazlan

Somewhere I have made a "Dread Nothic"... I don't remember where. I think it is... in a thread somewhere in the 20 years of this board.

Re: Ideal Ravenloft Videogame

I just remembered a game I played last year. It is called The Council. You play as an occultist investigator going to a council in a secret island in search of his missing mother. The game remembers a visual novel, but not so limited (you can explore some specific parts of the island and the manor ...

Re: Ideal Ravenloft Videogame

I'm old-fashioned like this, but I'd like a game in the style of Sierra's Quest for -games. There's a plot, there's social interaction, but there's room to roam around and look around and plenty of combat, too. Indeed, a "quest for Glory" like adventure, would be very good too. Or any kin...

I will be different and say a visual novel / make your own adventure game, with choices and just a little combat.

Re: Additional monsters for Hazlan

Rogue familiars. When a spellcaster is killed usually a familiar devolve to its natural state, but in area of particularly wild magic ( or if the Mists are involved) a familiar can go rogue, retaining its enhanced abilities and developing a proactive personality ( often malevolent and revengful) I ...

Re: How similar are the rules of Pathfinder and D&D 3e?

Pathfinder is practically tweaked 3.5 edition. When WotC greedily moved to 4th edition which was controversial to downright unpopular in order to make money from its dominance of the market, Pathfinder greedily backstabbed WotC and (ab)using the OGL used their own tools, to become D&D's main com...

Some adventure ideas ...

A friend was asking me for some help with an adventure she was planning for her 4th level party. 5th edition D&D. In short, we ended up with this idea that people may find interesting, especially in Sebua. Villa near a small oasis that the nomad guides shun and consider cursed and haunted (hint:...

Re: Additional monsters for Hazlan

Oh, you wanted aberration or bizarre looking ones? I didn't catch that. There were a kind of aberration or monster, I don't remember what, that was lying a flying carrion crawler, in short: Tentacles that paralyze and a beak. I don't remember the name. They were like a floating small body with tenta...
