This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

If there wasn't a chance of failure in that area, people wouldn't need Viagra.

In the Island Town adventure Erol Otus ran at North Texas RPG Con, the nominal goal is to ascend to the Terraces of Reproduction; failure will involve becoming an Honored Steward, which is to say a neutered Steward.

Whether or not Erol is a "First Son" he's sure a great DM, as is Gronan (although I have played with some exceptions to the rule).

So who sucked? Tim Kask?
Don\'t forget rule no. 2, noobs. Seriously, just don\'t post there. Those guys are nuts.

Speak your mind here without fear! They\'ll just lock the thread anyway.

It was ungentlemanly of me to add that parenthetical clause. I do think that to kill by magic is totally permissible in the modern era, although a gentleman is well advised to wear white gloves while doing so.

That would be truly spectacular failure.

Quote from: Werekoala;515008. . . ]A]s I've said elsewhere (and am hardly the first), without the possibility of failure, success is meaningless.
B-b-b-but, there're other kinds of failure besides death! Your character could be socially disadvantaged, or inconvenienced by a plot complication, or - horror of horrors! - lose a magic item until it can be remade in the next town!

Or some shit like that.
