Everyone hates paladins, so our RPG party has broken bad. We've successfully run an evil-centric D&D campaign for seven years! Find out the secrets for running this type of game with your group.
Description:
It's time to add some variety to your RPG! Our mission has been to encourage more gaming groups to try an evil setting. But if you haven’t attempted to run an evil RPG or you have tried and it hasn’t worked, we are here for you. For several years, Josh Long has run a 3.5 campaign with all evil-aligned characters. The actual play podcast can be found at geekspective.com. We'll share our hard-earned experience on what works and what does not when running an evil-themed role playing game. The group's solutions have led to a game that is more flexible, rewarding, and challenging than a traditional good-aligned campaign. We'll discuss playing evil characters, evil social settings, intra-party conflict, keeping evil characters motivated, setting tough encounters for ruthless player characters, and giving moral quandaries to amoral characters. We'll explain why it can be so good to be so bad.
