Restless Souls comes to the gaming table with the interesting idea of playing a character who is not quite dead and not quite living either. This thirteen page add-on to your d20 or Pathfinder game is an expansion of the Questhaven campaign world by Rite Publishing, but the content within can easily be adapted to just about any fantasy setting. Within its pages, you will find a new template which will transform any (now dead) creature into a restless soul,...

Dear One Geek,
Whether tabletop or LARP, certain folks I game with seem to have more fun bragging about how cool their characters are than actually gaming. They'll drop out of character for extended lengths of time to go on and on about how awesome their stats are, what a great loophole they've found in the rules or what a stud their other characters are/were. It's hard to get them back on track about the game we are playing at that time, and worse yet, they tend to pull others out of...

This week's topic comes through a rather circuitous route, so bear with me...
It starts a month ago, when I spent the first two weeks of December on a writing retreat. The idea was simple. Seclude myself away in an area I find environmentally stimulating (for me, this is means winter storms, grey skies, trees and water, so the North Oregon coast was perfect) for an extended period (long enough for the "just here for a weekend" need to sleep/enjoy the area/get over jet lag to go away) with a...

Best Wishes and Happy New Year!

Dear One Geek,
When is it appropriate to have your minor children (particularly much younger ones) along on geek expeditions, and when isn't it, and, more to the point (for those of us that who are happily child-free) what's your take on when...

Dear One Geek,
I've noticed with the rise of the internet for online role playing games that people seem to treat it with less politeness than they do face to face gaming. Even ignoring jerks who are just plain rude, crude or otherwise socially unacceptable, many "good folks" seem not to give online games the same respect they do to "real life" ones. They will show up really late, leave early, drop out mid-session, or just not show up. We've lost a lot of players who apparently lack the...

Back at the end of October, Pen & Paper Games hosted a live chat event with the folks from D-3 Games. If you missed the event, we now have the transcript available for your reading pleasure.
Enjoy!

The end of the year is quickly approaching, and for many folks, that means gift giving decisions are hanging heavily overhead. Choosing the right present is stressful enough, but (especially with the current economic situation) many of us also struggle with other gift-related decisions as well - who do you give to, how expensive of a present do you give, and what types of gifts are and aren't appropriate for each recipient. These challenges plague our pre-holiday thoughts, and the anxiety that...
