The investigators have uncovered a conspiracy of four families that has brought great evil upon the city. Each family held a part of an artifact of great power but when they misused it, everyone suffered a terrible fate. In order to stop the Slender Man, the investigators must find the four pieces. One piece is in the Tanner neighborhood, and a strange little girl is more than they realized. What secrets does she hold and is an enemy or ally?

We switch up a few seats and finish our discussion on character backgrounds.  This week:  How much physical description is a good idea, or is it necessary at all?   How do you build personal goals for your characters, and how do you keep them aligned with the main plotline?    What do you do with NPCs related to the player characters?  And more!

In this episode we discuss some listener feedback, discuss in-game currency, the whiff factor, and how to improve characters through negative personality traits.

This episode is all about using plot hooks in play, as well as combining them with misdirection. We discuss what not to do as well as talking about some of our techniques for creating and maintaining plot hooks. If you … Continue reading →

Tim:

I served as a sniper for several years in the army and your discussion of all the different factors in combat reminded me of all the different calculations in taking a shot, i.e. elevation, the wind, ballistic charts, humidity, range.  :)

 

 

Jeffrey:

Gentlemen.  I have been truly enjoying your podcast.  As a new DM and new to AD&D, I am enjoying the freedom that it offers compared to its newest edition.   What I do miss are what I consider some really basic information stats, such as "how far can a person not trained in jumping" jump, or what are some basic rules for sneaking around if you are not a thief, because a human fighter, trying to learn to sneak around and dual class into thief has to learn sometime.  Do you just make it up on the fly or do you really have stacks and stacks of books you reference when you are playing.    I am new and I only have a couple of the basics books so some advice would be appreciated.

 

Also, and please keep in mind that I am a novice (as the last time I played was back in college in the late eighties), do you apply the martial arts techniques to a monk, or is that just for fighter specialization?

 

Thanks guys!

 

DM Rob:

Love the show! I've been working my way through your back catalog and I'm almost caught up. I had been listening for a long while before picking up any first edition books but I am now a convert from 4e.

 

I recently picked up The Compleat Spell-Caster by the Bard Games. It claims to be a system-neutral supplement but it is obviously intended for AD&D and AD&D only. The alternative classes include witch/warlock, mystics, necromancers and sorcerers.

 

The new classes are pretty neat and I would like to convert them for a Castles & Crusades campaign. The only snag is that there are only 7 levels of spells for any of the classes, but first edition and C&C have 9 spell levels.

 

Is this normal for third-party supplements? What should I do if a player gets one of these classes to high levels and expects 8 and 9 level spells?
