    Anyone know of any free adventurers suitable for younger kids?

    A Dark and Stormy Knight springs to mind. I hate it for its simplicity and for wasting a perfectly fine pun on the actual boss of that mini dungeon but it sure seems perfect for this occasion.

    29) Elves consider any form of food produced by farming tainted and refuse to eat it. However, they have mastered the secrets of cooking even the vilest of monsters into legendary cuisines for those are the freest of beings. 30) An Elven wizard may and must dye their hair with a streak of...

    Help with a Construct

    “Feral creature” is an inherited template that can be added to any corporeal humanoid or monstrous humanoid (referred to hereafter as the base creature). A feral creature has all the base creature’s characteristics except as noted here." No, sorry. It is both inherited and inapplicable to...

    A puzzle that simulates a chase?

    Shortcuts. As in, multiple possible trajectories in chasing the prey. It forces decisions based on the following factors (for example - there are probably many more): 1. Is there anything which might delay me in there? (Possible skill challenges - if you pass, there is no delay. If you fail, you...

    Elven metabolism, tall dwarves, pretty trolls.

    Well, I had a fat elf in the first game I ever led and I would prefer not to talk about that one (WHFRPG 2nd edition). There is actually a chubby elf in the art of one of the books of that game. Or at least a chubby person with pointy ears and too long to be a halfling. There are no half-elves...

    101 Big Villain ideas

    Oh, I also remembered some oldies from a previous campaign. Titan King Solomon "Absolute Law" - An advanced Titan whose portfolio is actually law, making him a bizarre titan indeed. Solomon is lawful neutral but he rules a plane of limitless cities (Avincar) with an iron grasp. Everything must...

    Help needed in giving a villain depth

    Hey, great. Just what I need. 1. He still considers himself "righteous" which justifies his actions. While he might understand having strayed what from the ideals of good and being tainted as a consequence, he still considers himself a champion of good since his actions result in the...

    "Monstrous bite": feat, spell, magic ability or what else?

    How about making that a bed sheet of fangs? If you know the "security word" to activate it, you can grow the fangs that way. Also, no one would expect it: sure, you might notice some prior item on one's person but suspecting the sheets? Nope.

    Help needed in giving a villain depth

    Hi. So, my Eberron campaign began yesterday. Essentially it is about the characters becoming entwined with the fate of a riddle-locked box and its carrier, a House Kundarak dwarf. The box contains an egg-shaped, eye-covered crystal that stands on tentacle-like appendices which sprout from its...

    RW/fictional characters in your games

    Well, will they use their tentacles to suck brains for nourishment? If no, that is a good start. Are their squid heads pinkish? If no, you are doing strong. Do they propagate by inserting their larvae in the heads of people? If not - well, that probably does not even matter since it is not a big...

    Does forced movement out of a threatened area trigger an AoO?

    At least the enchantment "Brutal Surge" has a mention of the movement its bull rush causes provoking attacks of opportunity from others than you. Since that is the only reference I happen to remember for now, I would say that it causes attacks of opportunity unless otherwise specified.
