Café de Nuit

I always assumed they were as powerful as deities -- and powereful deities at that. I remember a post somewhere on this board stating something like that the desingers have to keep the DPs within certain bounds or the gods of other worlds would "come and knock their heads together". I thin...

First of all, I'd like to say that this thread showcases the reason I don't post here much anymore. You can't post anything withouth it being literally torn to shreds here. Any opinion you espouse is quickly shown to be wrong somehow. Free thinking and creativity on the DM's part is lauded in words,...

Hopefully this isn't old news to everyone here - a quick search revealed no references to this in the forum. As part of the Hackmaster line, a scenario has been released called Robinloft. It looks to be a rather pun-filled affair, right down to the cover art. I'm somewhat curious as to how far one ...

Thanks, Chris! Several things to think about there. I like the new domains too.

If you explain too much, you lose the horror factor. I'm not so sure. Explaining that the DPs are alien entities as powerful as gods and RL is just a grand experiment on mortal concepts of evil, with everyone being easily replaceable lab rats, wouldn't lose much of the horror factor, I'd think. (No...

The correct spelling is dampyr or damphyr . Despite what you heard if you saw the move Blood Rayne, it is pronounced "dawm-peer" or "dawm-pyeer". As to your problem, I think you should ask her to leave the game if she refuses to listen to reason. If you don't you may actually dis...

Been looking through it myself, since I remembered a couple of portraits that sounded like what you have in mind. Maybe this or this?

You can probably find what you're looking for here. You'll have to do some browsing to find what you're looking for, but it's there if anywhere. These are in .tga format, but you can convert them to jpeg or another common format with IrfanView.

Actually, Barovia was copied, not pulled in, as we see in the final GC module Never played that, don't have it. and IIRC the BB says that only Mordenheim's mansion was pulled into RL. I have the black box but I don't remember that. The fact that there was no domain before a DL. You may rule differe...

One of S&S's biggest mistakes, IMHO, was making out that Lamordia had a false history. Even if you do have false histories, Lamordia shouldn't, no more than Barovia or Mordent should. The monster was created in a land called Lamordia, and the three years between his creation and him becoming a D...

Pity there isn't an actual authority to 'lay down the law'. But to me the whole idea of 'canon' is a bit on the obsessive side. The game encourages if not charges you with the need to invent and change, so ensuring that Hazlik's cloak is crimson red and not cherry red is not worth it. I'm sure ther...

I second that!

Wow, thanks for the link! Should I survive this cold, this will come in handy later.

Actually, it's a good thing that we're not aiming for a Halloween release. I have realized that a lot of my stuff written beforehand needs plenty more work before I'm happy with it (mostly contextualizing, so the players can get a real feel for a believable and quasi-historical China setting). Now ...

So, whatcha think? Truly awesome! I wish we had an applause emoticon. I'm sorry I didn't reply sooner; I was reading the stuff on Asian magic and pretty much skipped the rest for a while. I've been terribly busy lately too, but life will slow down as the weather cools. I'm afraid my original plans ...
