Gaming Tips

Tips for Players
Try to uncover all of the secrets about an NPC. It might come in handy later on.

Tips for GameMasters
Be Dramatic - Major events in the story should be memorable. Something that impresses or intimidates a character is likely to seem larger-than-life. If a PC dies, make sure it's a particularly tragic or heroic death that fits into the storyline.

From the RPG Glossary...
Chimera - An imaginary monster compounded of incongruous parts, often a combination of two or more animals.

Gaming Humor

When I Am the Evil Overlord...
I will spare someone who saved my life sometime in the past. This is only reasonable as it encourages others to do so. However, the offer is good one time only. If they want me to spare them again, they'd better save my life again.

You Might Be A Gamer If...
You've bought a game even though you didn't like the genre or the rules, so that you could fix the rules and convert them to a different genre.

Gamer To Avoid
The In-Fighter - He frequently instigates conflict with other player's characters.

Things I Learned While Gaming
If the gun can't fit through the x-ray machine, it doesn't go on the plane.
