Weirdo Whoever Plays D&D: Toxic Love


(For the reference, I suggest playing this lovely piece music, from a not-exactly-lovely piece of an animated film, by none other than Tim Curry himself.)

I actually asked my old DM if poison in D&D sucked back in past edition. His reply was no, in fact many poisons were deadly at least back in 3.5rd edition, what with Constitution damage and all. While I do think removing ability score reduction (and addition) was a good move, I felt sorry for poor poison damage, which is now too well nullified by oh-so-many creatures and even characters.

This one is my tribute to some of the least loved damage types, and probably mark my turn to more sadistic approach to my players. As the Ancestor has said in his epic voice, "great is the weapon that cuts on its own."

Weirdo Whoever Plays D&D: Homage to the Past


Oldies are goodies. If I ever become famous enough to write an autobiography (which won't happen anyway, but still) that phrase could be the title. So yeah, some conversions from past editions that I have never played at all, because the very concept is freakin' awesome.

Took me weeks to finish this. Most of the time were spent on finding materials and determining which one to convert, and converting work took just as much. I thank my old DM for providing some 3.5e and 4e books, I owe him so much.

Maybe I should gather up my players to playtest this. I'm not sure if they're all balanced enough.
