I learned to grudgingly admire their abilities and strengths, but really despised that the Underdark seemed to be crawling with those bloodthirsty folks. The fact that I was the biggest and burliest guy in the party made me a great target for them as well. They were sneaky little guys . . .

Will your command ability carry the day against your opponent?

Based on three Planescape factions—the Society of Sensation, the Transcendent Order, and the Xaositects—these character themes can be used in games taking place before the Faction War or in conjunction with modern depictions of Sigil from Dungeon Master's Guide 2 and Manual of the Planes.

Opinion: The Spector of game AI

by Luke Dicken

I want to start out by asserting that Dungeons & Dragons could quite easily be described as the best game ever made.  It, and the table-top genre as a whole, has endured in a way no video game has to date.
