    Are there any insectoid playable races yet in 4e?

    Because I kinda want to have a tyranid styled character

    Possibly a shaman who has spore mine spirit companions

    Or, I dunno, a lictor styled rogue or a ranger with some sort of nasty motherfucker of an "animal" companion

    I might fuck around with the warforged a bit, so you can have effectively a genetic warforged. Adding on parts to his body and all that.

    they're level five monsters

    blue-collar workers just punching the clock, guarding this room of a dungeon because their boss said to.

    Sometimes they have specific objectives, like "don't let anybody open this chest" and if they do it, they get a bonus at the end of the session, like a cot that allows one player to refresh one daily power once, but they wake up dazed the first round of the fight because they were still asleep. Or a handful of crates to arrange strategically to provide cover. Stuff like that.

    We're working up to having a story that goes along with it, and eventually I'll have another dungeon piece or two (once summer semester is over, hopefully) that'll connect to this one.

    I really want to have a second dungeon done before PAX, I've got a great idea for a huge-scale adventure for like ten or more players.

    wait, who's their boss

    is it actually someone who's paying them (making them mercs) or is it some sort of evil wizard (they do it for the ale, wenches, and snappy uniforms) or some form of tribal leader (they do it for the clan)?

    the only problem I have with the dungeon so far is where to store it. I can't make it too deep/tall, as I need to be able to stash it on top of our china hutch thing that came with the apartment. Otherwise I'd have made it multi-level with a bunch of cool features.

    But right now, man, it's nearly done and ready to seal and paint. One room needs tiles glued down and I need to do some detail work, but it's about four hours of work away from laying down the first layer of glue sealant so I can start spraypainting.

    I've got plans, man. Have some faith.

    They'll often be sent on other excursions, like "oh shit we're low on food, go raid the neighboring farmlands, but be careful, those motherfucking humans are racist as shit and won't even trade with us, so we gotta steal, and they fucking kill on sight".

    Or "shit, there's a scout party spotted at the bottom of the mountain, if they get away they'll lead a huge raiding party straight to the dungeon and they'll steal all our shit and kill our fucking children!"

    and it isn't just heroes they fight. There's competing clans of orcs and shit, a while ago someone deeper in the dungeon accidentally unearthed a wave of kruthik, a young blue dragon came investigating rumors of treasure in the dungeon, etc. Who is to say they don't run into maurading bands of undead, or any number of other beasts and hazards? Maybe a cult of orcus wants the lair for their stupid blood god worshipping and shit? There's very few limitations to what we can really do with this, and giving them a central location, especially one that looks as good as this, that they can improve upon, really gives them a sense of ownership over the battlefield.

    We don't even have one orc, at this point.

    We've got two gnolls, a bullywug, a bugbear, a kobold, a kenku, a duergar and something else, I think.

    And they get along because it's fucking fun and it's a damned game. If they wanna get all racist against each other, okay sure, but you guys got a common enemy coming to cut yer throats, and the boss' cash all spends the same, so what's the big deal, really.

    best part of this campaign is that it's super easy to be all "oh the bugbear, yeah it's his day off. This is Gnarshflargraphak, he's the new guy, he'll be taking over Blargnifilikargh's shift. He was working in the mines for a while, but he's got a touch of the ol' black lung."
