    OT:Looking for a good book/series set in Feudal Japan

    One book and author I really like is Paladin by C.J.Cherryh. No it is not set in Japan, it is in its own eastern inspired fantasy world, but it might as well have been Japan. It has the feel of an ancient epic legend. Plus Cherryh does such a good job of world building that it is entirely...

    How long is a single use of Bardic Music?

    The one precedent I could find in the DMG regarding Bardic ability is for using the Lyre of Building. The lyre is intended to be used for lengthy periods of time and requires a Perform check (DC 18) each hour. Some sort of perform check (maybe DC 15 +1 per hour after the first) would be an...

    Thieves World

    Going back to Mr. Fidgit's comment about the relative ages of some of the characters. I think that relates to the nature of Magic in Sanctuary. Someone earlier said that this was a Low-magic environment. I am not so sure. Magic is not overt in Sanctuary certainly. But it is present... And...

    Help: Sorcerer spell list.

    Well for Arcane Trickster you need at least 3 levels of Rogue (for the 2d6 sneak attack) and 5 levels of Wizard OR 6 levels of Sorcerer. The only spell you HAVE to have is Mage Hand - So be sure to take that as a 1st level sorcerer... As for Guild Thief - that requires 8 ranks of hiding...
