animated dragon taxidermy

Here is an idea I used recently in a game. Take any dragon that want and split his attacks up. For each attack, assign hp and defenses equal to the dragons level but as a normal monster insread of a solo. Have each body part represent a body part of the dragon. So you can have 2 claws, a tail, a head and possibly two wings. For the head, I would give it elite defenses including the action point and saving throw bonus. You'll want to give each piece a speed as well. For the head, you can either let it float psychically, or mount it on the wall, like a true taxidermist would.

I'll post the statistics that I used later.

Game Theory Part 2

Here's some real conversation for your ass Roles What is a role in regards to role playing games? What roles do you play? Which roles transcend your character and your group? Be aware of the roles in your group. Well, a role describes the type of actions that a character would take in regards to other people in the party. But, it also describes the type of actions that a person takes in regards to a gaming group. Roles divide up the tasks that need to be completed for success. I think roles are something that you should be aware of, but you don't necessarily need to assign. I do think that if you see that someone is always the group organizer or leader, for instance, you should ask them whether or not they enjoy that post and if they would like to try something else. Its natural to lean towards one role to play in character because its a role you normally take outside of the game. What role do you tend to play? Besides game roles, there are other ways to help your group that I...

Game Theory Part 1: Character Creation

OK so, where should I start here? I promised an article about game theory and I am damn sure I'm going to deliver! (rereading this article I realized this is pretty narrative and lecturey . So if your bored, I apologies) I like to dabble in game theory. And by game theory I am of course referring to how role playing games are played. I don't necessarily mean mechanics either. I guess I should start with character creation as that's where players start right? Players should create their characters with interesting and unique ideas that pertain to the setting and campaign of the game. I highly suggest, and in fact require now in my games, that players create their characters together when starting a new game. Players should be encouraged to engage in discussion about each others ideas of their characters which would allow cohesion and more immersion in the game. When creating your character's background, you should try to implement something from the setting into your cha...

I'm back!

I'm going to start writing again more regularly. This time I promise to keep it up. I know I said that before but this time I mean it. For reals! I have a new phone that lets me post using it, so now I don't have an excuse. to prove it, here is my email adress: obcflocal@gmail.com If i don't post somethng once a week, feel free to shoot me an angry letter demanding that post right away! Also, I am going to be doing things differently. I still have my musings about rpg theory along with some real life stufff thrown in, but mostly I'm going to use this as a place to post encounters for 4th ed Dungeons and Dragons. There will be stuff that I've used in my games but also just some fun ideas that might or might not work. I'll let you know what I've used and what worked when I have tested it out.
