Jul 29	answered	Fantasy and magic in a primarily realistic setting
May 10	comment	As a girl how can I roleplay a male character better? @aramis - In Europe, throughout much of the 2nd millenium, in most places, yes. Not so much in Japan or, say, the Victorian era.
May 4	awarded	Nice Answer

May 2	comment	As a girl how can I roleplay a male character better? I like this answer for certain situations but not quite as much for male nobility depending on the context (historical period etc.), the reason being that depending on the type "nobility" you can have anything from a glorified thug who is immune from retribution, to an exquisitely cultured individual whose public display of motivations, at least, end up only really showing prestige. Also, if the setting has modernized gender roles, the whole section on women would probably have to be rethought (since what was acceptable would change).

Apr 23	comment	Aganazzar's Scorcher: Rules for 'path' Spells If anyone remembers the ancient CompuServe game Islands of Kesmai, you might recall that wizards had a Firebolt spell that had a path that could go in any direction (even turn back on itself). Overlapping the path three or four times was very effective. This is probably not what you would want out of Agnazzar's Scorcher.

Apr 9	answered	What is a good scaling ratio for larger than 5 player character parties?
Mar 12	comment	Guide to writing an RPG - Examples inline or at the end? @RobLang - I understand from the voting that it is unpopular, but I have seen exactly this done well and it is extremely effective. If you want to glance, you pop it up and read it, then move the cursor and let it drop back. If you want to read more seriously, pop it up inline.
Mar 7	answered	“Epic Level” Shadowrun
Mar 7	comment	How can I prevent a TPK without obvious Deus Ex Machina? +1, Great idea! (Note: the witchfire only needs to hold enough PCs captive in order to (believe it can) compel the rest to do the Witchfire's bidding.)

Dec 12	comment	3d6 vs a d20: What is the effect of a different probability curve? @Pureferret - Glad you found it useful. It probably has few votes in part because it was a late answer--the question was asked in Sept. 2010, and I didn't notice it and write an answer until over 6 months later.
