Come up with plots that require the sacrifice of big items, in order to achieve something extraordinary. That way people will get something out of the loss :) The fairy war plot did exactly that. However, the trouble with DM plots is that it doesn't ultimately address the problem. Items, like gold,...

I think I'm with Orl; we can think of tons of ways to make our worlds better. We have the resources to do a few. We need to ask ourselves which are the most important. I think Doug laid the Definitive argument on why Heal Kits aren't the problem, but that doesn't mean we should immediately run down ...

The main issue is the fundamental difference between PNP and online gaming. How many fights do you have on an average 4 hours session of PNP? How many do you go through in 4 hours of online gaming? More fights = more damage that the characters take = more healing that needs to be done to the charact...

Its a nice thought, but not one I'm prepared to entertain until some other major events come through, in particular the conversion to HOTU. As an idea, I think its a good one, something to look forward to, that would probably do more good than harm for sure. Unfortunately, given the other constraint...

That would be me as well.

I'm Vergilius You could say I'm a relative latecomer to RPing. I didn't get into PNP till about 3-4 years ago. Within 3 months of starting my PNP experience, I was selected as DM for the group, which was quite the learning time. It has only been recently that I switched to online RPing. I was a stra...
