Dungeons and Dragons Table Top

Eddie Davidson 🚫

I was recently watching a Stranger Things advert for the box set of Dungeons and Dragons and a wave of nostalgia hit me.

I remember the coolest girls were the types who would nerd out with us during gaming and sometimes we'd have some naughty encounters that weren't quite worth writing a story about but I could picture how embellishing them might have.

What I am looking for any stories like this;

Highschool GM and his buddies/a couple girls meet up regularly to play AD&D around a table at school. During the game, they often fantasize about their characters, etc but perhaps it leads to real life situations - acting out the ropelay.

"Barbara the Barbarian is topless, she doesn't wear chest armor"

"Fine, dress as your character."

"You don't make the guys dress as their character."

"Anyone who dresses as their character next session gets a +2 to hit, and +2 to damage."

IDK, something fun like that. Bonus points for Embaressed Nude Females/Clothed Males/Nude Female format story.

Not a story, but this IS on topic, sort of.
In the "Cinematic Rules" for a previous edition of GURPS, (Generic Universal Role Playing System) (Yes, that's a real game system) there are rules that allow for being harder to hit based on how LITTLE you are wearing. Naked women get a slight bonus over guys IIRC.

Hmm, I don't think the rules writers ever mentioned dressing like your character but, ...

Not only is it a real game system, it is the basis on which the Fallout SPECIAL system is based on.

Yeah, there was a negotiation about putting out a GURPS Fallout version, but (as I heard it) the Fallout world was just deemed too err, extreme, for them to publish and keep their "sort of family friendly " status.

It actually originated as GURPS in early development, but Steve Jackson pulled the plug on the licensing for that reason so they changed enough to get away with it being a clone.

Fallout has a rather interesting legal history, and that was not the first of them. I was attracted to it because I had played "Wasteland" in the 1980s, a game created by Interplay but published by EA. And that was one of the first hints at what EA was becoming, as instead of allowing Interplay to write the sequel (which was in the works but EA cancelled), they wrote an inferior in-house sequel with no involvement from the original creators.

Interplay tried for years to either get permission to create a sequel or buy the rights back, before finally giving up and Creating "Fallout" as a clone of their own game.

Being into both RPGs and Computer Games in the 1980s, it is amazing how much the two constantly crossed over between each other. Among other things.

Like one of the creators of Wasteland was Michael Stackpole, who wrote several key Star Wars books as well as helped create the Tunnels and Trolls game system.

Remember ZORK? Myst?

I played Zork when it came out, when it was still a game on mainframes. The character parser was much more advanced than the one in Colossal Cave.

I never got into Myst or games like that. By that time I have moved on to RPG style games or turn based strategy.

My sister an I used to play it on a DEC mainframe. After being frustrated over something we typed in "damn" and was told "Tough shit asshole" The computer swore at us, we were young enough to be shocked. Other responses were "Such language in a high class establishment like this!" and "Such language from a supposedly winning adventurer."

I just found my maps. I copied one onto parchment.

Stackpole also has a rule named after him in Battletech, because of his habit of writing fusion engines losing containment in spectacular explosions in the Battletech fiction.

That's the basic premise of DM and the Dirty 20s. by BreaktheBar (currently posting), except that it's a next-generation daughter who's decided that she wants the DM to run a game for her and her friends like he's been running for her parents all these years.

There's also Tom Frost's (sadly incomplete and inactive) Too Much Love, which opens with a guy who came unexpectedly into a multi-billion-dollar inheritance on his 18th birthday producing a video called "A Billionaire Plays Dungeons & Dragons with Four Lingerie Models", which is pretty much what it says on the tin. Mysteriously, all of the lingerie models find excuses to keep hanging around the billionaire, though they do generally keep their role-playing and their modeling lingerie (or less) separate.

In my "Country Boy, City Girl" series, D&D actually plays a prominent role in the story. With early on the main character starting to play in high school, then later branching into writing modules and game development.

I have nothing like that in the series, but I do have the characters playing a few "pornographic dungeons".

I can't remember the title or author, sorry. But there was a good story with a D&D Arc of sorts. Part of the Stone Family. Poof he's rich and now living downtown with his entroge from his hometown. Offered them to live with him, and get paid to keep him balanced. They throw a huge party, d&d themed and hire models to showcase etc

Nevermind, BlacKnight had the same story and the name
