With the loss of the sun (nuclear winter, a wizard did it, whatever) the Underdark races have surfaced and are the apex predators/advanced civilizations. The PCs are in a mad max (but always cold and dark) environment. Anything civilized (bigger than a village of 100 or so) is controlled by drow / m...

If the droids are right, Han faces odds of 3,720 to 1 to successfully navigate an asteroid field. Successfully surviving a direct run against a Star Destroyer are 725 to 1. In-universe, the odds of just those two scenes are approximately 1 in 2.7 MILLION tries. 725/1 are the odds of Luke surviving ...

You swore at a customer, didn't get proper sleep going into work, and broke something out of anger. That's pretty standard grounds for firing.

I seem to recall the Dungeonomicon having a rant on developing languages in D&D, but I can't be bothered to verify. For my home game, I come up with key phrases/idiomatic expressions in different languages mostly ripped from pop culture, but I've been playing more or less in the same homebrew ca...
