Gaming Tips

Tips for Players
NPCs may leave a scene but they never leave the game. You can build an ongoing relationship with them, good or bad. Some NPCs can become patrons, teachers, or mentors.

Tips for GameMasters
Don't Be Verbose - Avoid giving long, wordy descriptions of unimportant factors. Don't give a five minute long description of the NPCs exotic sports car, just because you love hot cars. Unless it affects the plot, reveal only the basic details.

From the RPG Glossary...
"Inconceivable!" - Exclamation used by players after encountering something that they could have seen coming, but didn't anticipate; quoting "The Princess Bride".

Gaming Humor

When I Am the Evil Overlord...
If an advisor says to me "My liege, he is but one man. What can one man possibly do?", I will reply "This." and kill the advisor.

You Might Be A Gamer If...
You can consume your body weight in junk food in one gaming session.

Gamer To Avoid
The Cheater - He spends more character points than he has earned, has bags of endless gear, never runs out of arrows, or fudges dice rolls.

Things I Learned While Gaming
I was not recruited by the Star League for any reason.
