Gaming Tips

Tips for Players
Discuss your ideas for a character concept with the GM. You may not get as much time in the spotlight if your concept doesn't fit in well with the storyline. Avoid making "lone wolf", immoral, obtuse, or annoying characters.

Tips for GameMasters
Avoid PC Puppets - Except in rare circumstances, the GM should not control a player's character. If the PC is charmed, explain to the player how they should roleplay until the effects are over. Don't run a PC while the player is gone - if necessary, let another player get permission to do so.

From the RPG Glossary...
Psychopath Law - PCs have absolutely no problem killing anyone it would be helpful to slay, even if they are supposedly nice people, good guys, or law-abiding citizens.

Gaming Humor

When I Am the Evil Overlord...
When I employ people as advisors, I will occasionally listen to their advice.

You Might Be A Gamer If...
You tried gaming outside, for that "natural, woodland atmosphere" ...until you found out the hard way about the @%#*! wind, when it blew all of your maps and character sheets away.

Gamer To Avoid
The Stoic - His character has no strong human emotions. He is never terrified, overjoyed, or awestruck. Nothing causes him to change his perspective or develop as a person.

Things I Learned While Gaming
Drow are not good eating.
