Re: Curse of the Witch-King OOC

I'm quitting FoS.


If the players are interested, email me. I can continue the campaign on another forum.

Re: Ravenloft is back in 5e?

''I'm triggered by my PC being killed." MOD HAT: Please be respectful. This isn't the 1910s when "shell shocked" soldiers lacked "moral fibre" and were cowards. People have real feelings and can experience real trauma, and being reminded of said trauma conjures very real em...

Re: Ravenloft is back in 5e?

The book will also include a lengthy section on setting safe boundaries to keep everyone comfortable at the table.
That's from Polygon.

We're looking at different sites.

I don't think they promised a long chapter. Just that it would be included in some form.
Nope, it says' lengthy.'

Re: Ravenloft is back in 5e?

Not a single game you named is new. PF is a retroclone of 3.5 with some house rules tacked on, and it came out when? CoC is one of the oldest still-published RPGs. That's exactly my point. As all have text in their newest edition about limits, the x-card, hard and soft lines, etc. Good to know. I w...

Re: Ravenloft is back in 5e?

Jester, it appears to me that you just defeated your own argument. :azalin: You wrote a single post that said that could reasonably be said about 'consent' and 'boundaries' in a horror game. I'd hardly call that part of your post lengthy in the context of a printed book. Contrary to what you seem to...

Re: Ravenloft is back in 5e?

I've given the reasons why I'm not spending fifty bucks on this one. But I'll be interested to see what those of you who do buy the book think of the world content and new/altered characters. Not having read the book, I am in the same situation as everybody else on this thread. It could be full of s...

Re: Ravenloft is back in 5e?

Right. But how do you know your players if you don't ask? Not everyone advertises their phobias and traumas. Tells you about their PTSD. Some people who dislike spiders might enjoy being creeped out by an ettercap themed adventure, others might nope right out and feel betrayed that you'd use their ...
