Yes, I know the type. While I played in face to face group we had dinner at one demonologists masquerade ball. It was 'truce dinner' where PCs were (mostly)good guys and there was several demons, devils even one deva and priests of all kinds. And each of us got meat dish tastefuly decorated etc...

It was fine until later when we found out that meat was served from slaves of each of respective races ... you should have seen both paladins face and GM's face

He said he had it prepared for years, there simply wasn't chance to spring it on us...

What do you mean, 'younger'? If anything, his advancing age has made him more evil and cruel. Why do you think that I prefer to be behind the screens with him as opposed to subject to his tricks?

There are exceptions, of course: Logan because his party desperately needed a cleric, and Gnurl because, well, Gnomes are just so COOL!!

Lou, as to your 'evil or misunderstood' remark, I think the only thing that is misunderstood about JA is just HOW evil he really is!

And thanks for the xp! I've still got to spread some more around before I can buff you again. (It takes me awhile to give out 50 points, dang it, and being limited to 3/day doesn't help matters.)

What I want to know is if there is a way to get your experience point power increased to more than 1. I have only once received experience from someone with more than one. Graf, I think it was gave me two at one whack!

Looking more like Anniston and Vadric are the victims and Finnian and Bertrand are just DM tools. Hope the others can figure something out to give our characters back to us. lol

Misunderstood?? About this misunderstood

Can't wait to see what happens next.

That is the 3.5 rule:

Starting a Grapple

To start a grapple, you need to grab and hold your target. Starting a grapple requires a successful melee attack roll. If you get multiple attacks, you can attempt to start a grapple multiple times (at successively lower base attack bonuses).
Step 1

Attack of Opportunity. You provoke an attack of opportunity from the target you are trying to grapple. If the attack of opportunity deals damage, the grapple attempt fails. (Certain monsters do not provoke attacks of opportunity when they attempt to grapple, nor do characters with the Improved Grapple feat.) If the attack of opportunity misses or fails to deal damage, proceed to Step 2.

ANother question then.

Orderbringer is dispelling longsword. Dispeling works as targeted dispel magic on attack 3/day. The question is: can I attack the spell surrounding finnian instead of Finnian in person? It wouldn't then affect all his spells and items, but also wouldn't zap Vorian as he could attack without steping too close to Finnian. Orderbringer might get zapped but is magical weapon and shouldnt' break from small amount of damage.

If that is not possible, I'll think of something else probably entangling whole area or raise wall of stone around finnian

I've got another question for you, JA...since Vadric's spell worked to hold Bertrand, will you allow Vadric to make a non-lethal coup de grace in order to knock him unconscious (instead of killing him)?

Pssst! Give him a couple of licks for me, too, but keep it quiet! Got to keep up appearances with my co-DM and everything! Hmmm... I already have a sneaking suspicion that I'm going to pay for this very dearly and I haven't even done anything!

No worries, I'll ring his bell for you! He fell victim to one of the classic blunders: Never go up against a 14th level Cleric when death is on the line!

Seriously though...only the most ruthless of DMs would make the party members fight each other because of some twisted outside evil influence!
