     Kevin had been busy for the first few days after getting back from the Crusader Kingdoms… There had been the new Thralls to induct.

• Avatar’s Alien Language is Real, or As Real As Fake Languages Get

  
  /Film — Authority: 784
  James Cameron is a seriously detail-oriented guy. Every major profile of the filmmaker written since Avatar has hit the promo trail has pointed that out, whether via anecdotes about making minor tweaks to technology designs, foliage coloration or the physics of CGI breasts. So it shouldn’t come as a surprise ...

• The Fedyra

  
  Emergence Campaign Weblog — Authority: 127
     Here we have a quick writeup of a race for one of my correspondents – in this case Andrew Maitland. He had some ideas about the Fedyra - a unique Fey/Dragon Humanoid race for a game he was planning to run. He wanted them to have limited shapeshifting to a specified animal form, to be dependent on specific ...

• RPG Design – Offices

  
  Emergence Campaign Weblog — Authority: 127
     Most of us agree that people SHOULD be able to do their jobs.    The belief that people wouldn’t have a job unless they were competent to handle it is still around, despite the everyday experience of encountering people who have been promoted beyond their competence, were hired by nepotism, or are simply ...

  Emergence Campaign Weblog — Authority: 127
     Hm… This just keeps getting longer and it’s been a busy week. Well, here’s part III, the segment on the Nobility, to go with Part I (the background information on Magical Rulers ) and Part II ( The God-Favored ).    Once upon a time it was easy to recognize the “well-bred”. A well-bred horse or ...

• Federation-Apocalypse Session 86c – Meditations on Darkness

  
  Emergence Campaign Weblog — Authority: 127
     By the time Marty got back to his penthouse, Gelman was long gone and the mess was cleared away (blast it; he never had found out anything about what had gotten into Gelman to let him do those things).    He tried to finish up his party – and the girls made a valiant effort to distract him – but he was too ...

• [Nexodus: A House Divided] First sketch of the Emissary

  
  In the Mind of a Mad Man!!! — Authority: 130
  When I made NeoExodus: A House Divided, I brought over the ideas and concepts of the Painted Man and Lawgiver from other fantasy ideas I had coming up with. Out of them I created Kaga. Kaga fit really well in the setting and I loved what it represented. But I while back, I thought about how Kaga should have a direct ...

  Emergence Campaign Weblog — Authority: 127
     Behind them, Gelman had given up the pursuit for long enough to call Mr Leland and let him know what Marty had dragged his company into…    However ironic it was that – out of all the things Marty had actually done – it was something that had happened behind his back that was finally catching up to him. ...

• [Pathfinder Cavalier] Prescriptive Classes Restrict a Character’s, um, Character

  
  tenletter — Authority: 118
  It’s been awhile since I last wrote about RPGs from a non-mechanics point of view, so I might be a bit rusty (please bear with me).  Paizo has recently started an open playtest for their upcoming Advanced Player’s Guide. Over the next few weeks, they will be releasing playtest versions of their six new base ...

  RPG Bloggers — Authority: 167
  Back in his Kadia penthouse, Marty was feeling vaguely guilty, and resenting it. He really hadn’t meant to upset Abigail that way, and he’d certainly meant well. Her spotting and resenting the Thrall-bodyguards was about par for the course – he should have realized that most of the Thralls... [...]

• RPG Design – The God-Favored

  
  Emergence Campaign Weblog — Authority: 127
     Now that we’ve had a look at where the ideas about magical rulers and kings come from ( HERE ), it’s time to translate them into gaming terms.    The God-Favored are not uncommon; any small tribe may well boast one or more. They’re simply chosen according to the whims of the gods, although the offspring ...

  20th Century Fox has released a new featurette for James Cameron ’s Avatar on the Taiwanese Yahoo.
