| #2EndarireMar 11, 2004 21:06:55 | While interesting, how's this involve out of print material? -EE |
| #3zombiegleemaxMar 11, 2004 21:16:15 | Originally posted by Endarire I guess it would depend on whether or not the GI Joe in question was one of the foot-tall versions with actual hair (probably now all gone since that hair seemed to wear off quite easily). Sarta |
| #4algolei_dupMar 12, 2004 1:12:08 | I'm guessin' they played 1E AD&D or possibly OAD&D. Which would make sense, since it's easier to learn. |
| #5zombiegleemaxMar 12, 2004 6:15:14 | Algolei is correct. I should have included that for Endarire's benefit and everyone else. We played 1st edition and visited the Keep on the Borderlands. |
| #6zombiegleemaxMar 12, 2004 6:47:00 | Seems kinda unfair that you stick Joe with those three blonde-haired hussies and then make him a Paladin! Well, granted your daughter is only 8, but still... |
| #7zombiegleemaxMar 12, 2004 22:00:40 | Originally posted by Wedge_Hammersteel Will My Little Pony be his mount? Will Jem be a bard? Thats pretty funny actually. OI could just see Wizard Barbie adn Ken the Cleric could be in the Episcopal church ;), earring magic ken could be uh...the uh...illusionist or enchanter. Good idea to get your daughter into it though, jokes aside. |
| #8zombiegleemaxMar 12, 2004 22:10:11 | Okay, I REALLY have to ask. What the hell happened? Barbie casted a "Remove Crotch" spell on Ken and then read a Permanency scroll? ![]() |
| #9zombiegleemaxMar 12, 2004 22:12:05 | no, they visited the members of the "Eunuch Maker" kit.q |
| #10zombiegleemaxMar 12, 2004 22:15:28 | Oh, yeah. Wasn't that a guild made up entirely of Dragonlance gnomes? |
| #11zombiegleemaxMar 12, 2004 22:17:34 | Originally posted by Hiryu No, those were the Tinker Gnomes that designed devices that were intended for something else but usually ended up doing something along that line. Those were right next to the Unintentional Killers Guild (the largest one) The Eunuch Maker kit was from the complete Priest's Handbook, when they reached 9th level they acquired 1D4+1 castrati singer followers and could make their own after 5th level, though most of them were said to have had accidents. |
| #12zombiegleemaxMar 13, 2004 1:05:38 | Originally posted by Yorlum But their is a difference between Chasity and/or Chaste requirements depending on the Religions. In Egyptian Mythos "purifying the flock" had to do with .....nevermind ![]() Even in some African, Asian, and Indian Cultures Sex is used as a "ritual" for casting powerful spells or "blessing the flock" . So a Paladin that "helps purify" the Blondies is a possibility. (different type of "Showers of blessing" or "holy water" )In fact a lot of Ancient Brothels were in fact of a "Monastery" type deal. The Clerics of Sune believe in spreading love and beauty. You do know that even in the Forgotten Realms that would mean the Sunnites would be putting a smile on a lot of the flocks faces, yes? ![]() |
| #13zombiegleemaxMar 13, 2004 1:24:17 | You could show her how an adventuring party would look like after a fireball hits them ( a bic lighter and all those dolls ) That might peak her interest in the game. ![]() |

| #15zombiegleemaxMar 24, 2004 17:28:49 | Originally posted by Wedge_Hammersteel Thats cool man. i have three boys 12,4,3 my oldest plays and the little ones get to watch. i try to use enough props so that it looks cool. gotta get new blood into the game! good luck! |
| #16Darth_KjeranMar 27, 2004 10:07:03 | Chello! Well, my oldest daughter will be 8 in July and she's been reading my old Endless Quest books and has expressed an interest in playing. (She especially likes "Return to Brookmere" which is funny since that was my first and favorite as well.) I think I'm going to start a game with her and maybe my six year old. Probaly use the Moldvay rules set. Tony |
| #17zombiegleemaxMar 27, 2004 10:55:12 | Originally posted by Darth_Kjeran I got my oldest son into the endless quest books, he enjoyed them as well. I'm gonna do the same with my two younger ones. I have always believed that D&D as a learning tool is invaluable. math, history, problem solving, reading, cultural geography. It's a shame the narrow minded people attached such a negative stigma to the game and the hobby in general. i would have loved to see the results of a study where gaming was made a part of the curriculum.

| #18zombiegleemaxMar 27, 2004 11:53:04 | The negative stigma comes from the sensationized media. It started in the 80's and is now institutionalized. That is one of the main reason this genre is never adveritsed. A shame, a real shame. |

| #20zombiegleemaxMar 28, 2004 15:10:15 | Pretty darn sure that site is a joke. But, you are correct, there are plenty of religious-right people out there who feel that role-playing is evil. Sarta |
