  farewell my beloved brunette — Authority: 136
  I’ve been working on the character design for my gnomish druid barbarian Rhythm & her animal companion/wolf-weasel Pigeon.

The Lady Gwendolyne is no ordinary ...

I, as someone with minimal 4e experience who early on decided it wasn’t for him, often can’t make heads or tails of ...

• Finding my own style - a years journey

  
  The Recursion King — Authority: 106
  I began in a similar way to most old school Dungeon Masters when I started playing Labyrinth Lord over a year ago, in that I would use just a few notes and go from there, expanding them in play to bring them to life, but have since allowed my approach to drift and so have now developed my own style. When I began, I ...

Indeed, Mr Lakfoka began writing articles for Dragon in its very first issue and continued to do so until after the magazine had reached over 100 issues. He ...

  Dice of Doom Blog — Authority: 99
  This entry is part 6 of 6 in the series PowergamingIt’s reasonably well known that Fighters and Monks are the weakest classes in 3.5 D&D.
