Jemals school of hard knocks

[Theroc]

Hm... I may have missed this, but is it possible for Coravin to take 10 on the Spellcraft check?

[Jemal]

i usually just make do with either description or Ascii.

As far as taking 10 on spellcraft check.. not for identifying a spell, as that's a reaction. Taking 10 or 20 is when you are taking your time to do something.

[Rathan]

this is cruel Jemal.... taking a poor 15 year old kids 'money' even if he HAD money to begin with..... next you'll be asking for the poor kids faith in boccob as payment :P *chuckles* well played my fellow DM.... well played heh

[Myth and Legend]

Well he is a rogue and practicing his trade yes? But at the expense of other students, so i wouldn't be surprised if a teacher intervenes. Jemal, was Arin's floating around and eye color change flavor text or did she use magic for these as well?

I don't know about them, but a carver is 400 gp, clawfoot is 150 gp, fastieth 50gp, glidewing 800gp.

Carver is the equivalent of the deinonychus. No mention of its tack & harness

[Rhun]

Wow, dino-mounts. Cool.

[renau1g]

Yeah, dino-riding halfling cannibals from the Talenta Plains. Scary stuff.

Why does that sound familiar? Oh, yeah, WD's character in Kinem's game.

[Arkhandus]

I make whatever kind of map is best for the circumstances and game type.....Ascii text-maps on the boards, simple sketching on the OpenRPG map most of the time there, sometimes a more detailed map done in Paint for an OpenRPG session, and hand-drawn maps for face-to-face games. With my old computer I made some maps for printing out with the map-making utility of the Core Rules 2 CD-Rom for AD&D 2e, but my current computer doesn't have that installed. I tried Campaign Cartographer 2, which was also on the CD, but that sucked and was too much of a bother to work with, especially with its cruddy documentation.

[Rhun]

Maybe I should just start alternating map types based on how much time I have at any given moment. If I throw out a few ASCII maps, that may help speed things up.

Awesome. Thank you.

er.. there's rules for buying dinosaurs? *Needs to read eberron more closely*
And I thought warhorses were the best way to buy yourself a fighter at low level.

[Jemal]

OH, also:

Teachers only intervene if someone breaks the rules. Scamming, conning, etc aren't agains the rules - only overt violence or offensive magics (Dominations etc).

Technically, Arin is the only person you've seen break the rules: in the cafeteria when she used a Suggestion spell on the drow, but she was doing it to prevent violence, so the teachers will likely overlook it.

Jemal, was Arin's floating around and eye color change flavor text or did she use magic for these as well?

You would presume there was some sort of magic involved (Especially with the symbiosis thing involved), but the Suggestion was the only actual Spell cast.

Dogs can come in handy too. Not as handy as a dinosaur, I'm sure, but still.

[renau1g]

Especially in 2e, dogs were a great buy.

I've only played a coupld of PCs that have had dogs, but I've used them against my PCs many times.

[Andor]

Ok. Lionel is all drawn up and posted either for use as an NPC or to be my PC if you don't hear from your player.

Yep. Eberron rocks. It's a really great setting.
