Gaming Advice / Enticing first session for Newbies
« on: April 07, 2012, 09:50:00 PM »
I'm starting a new campaign with friends that have never played D&D before. It will be 3.5e, because I know it best. Other than myself, there will be 3 newbies and 1 seasoned player. It will be based in Eberron, on Khorvare.

Since they never played before and have no role playing behind them (other than MMORPGs, if you can call them RPGs), how would you start your first session off with newbie players? And what elements would you introduce to make it memorable?

Assume that they have their characters created.

D&D 3.5 and Pathfinder / Lists of Mundane Items
« on: November 16, 2011, 11:43:30 AM »
I'm thinking of writing a program that will generate treasure for me. I know there are some out there that already do this, such as DonJon's treasure generator. My goal is to aggregate as much information as I can find in the standard books and magazines and make a generator that is customizable. As an example, generate treasure that is specific to pick pocketing (as an example, you wouldn't find a bookshelf or barrel in someone's pocket) or in an under-water setting.

The old crystalkeep pdfs are my starting point. What I'm lacking in info is a list with Mundane Items. The DMG has a good list, and so does Pathfinder, but I also found that there are smaller lists scattered around other books, like Tome and Blood. Would anyone here know which books/magazines contain lists like this?

Introduce Yourself / Greetings

Greetings. Seems like an overused word in the D&D community.

I'm Mark, and I come from the Brilliantgamologists boards. Long time lurker, seldom poster.
