    As a practical joke, Potion of Magic Missile. :D

    Grappling with a Spiked Chain

    RAW, as you point out, doesn't allow it in a grapple, and they don't allow it to start a grapple, either, as far as I know. If you wanted to allow it, I'd suggest treating it as a rope, perhaps, or maybe a touch attack with penalties for trying to "hit" such a specific location.

    What, 4th Ed? It's already been announced! Oh, wait, wrong system. :D

    Just taught my wife D&D!

    I haven't DM'ed in, what, twelve years now. Been playing pretty steadily in that time, however, with a couple years' dry spells. I want to start DM'ing again, but there are a few things that eat up my time:My 2.5 year-old and 10-month old daughters.1 Hour commute each way to work.My 2.5...

    Just taught my wife D&D!

    I would love to get my wife into gaming. Every time I mention her trying it out with my group, she always gives me a flat-out No. I always get the feeling that she's a little interested in it, but I think she feels a little intimidated with the role-playing in front of my friends, as well as...

    It's good class, but nobody plays it!

    Well, since I started with 3E, I have never gamed with any PC clerics, druids, monks, or paladins. One of my characters had one level of Wizard (Diviner), five of rogue; we played a short adventure where I had a sorcerer. Pretty much most of the characters have been fighters. My characters...

    tell me what you think - campaign idea

    Dwarven names Standard Dwarves Imperial Dwarves - due to their "Roman Empire" similarity Rage Dwarves Rage Dwarves - Why change a good name? :cool: Deep Dwarves Flint Dwarves; Stone Dwarves - due to their stony color Hopefully these ideas are good enough to pinch, too. ;)

    tell me what you think - campaign idea

    Drakmar, Thanks. At least my ideas may be good for someone.:D I, too, imagined the Redemptionists as a subservient and pacifist group. Although it does make sense that some of them may help their benefactors fight if that were their wish. As for the Greeners, where would they get their...

    [OT]Boycott Disney!

    Re: CNN Headline News / History Channel Ha-ha! My 2-1/2 yr-old daughter loves the Enterprise theme song as well. Any time it comes on, she runs out to the TV and dances to it.:) All part of a father's joy.:D

    tell me what you think - campaign idea

    Human Factions Just a thought on the impact this would have on the human culture. Considering that the gods are real, the attacks, the subsequent retreat underground, and the future of the human race could be viewed several ways: [list=1] The events occurred as the gods' punishment to the...

    Pedantic Poll #2: Dice

    d30! They're huge. They're heavy. And they're the most underutilized die ever. I've only found one RPG that even mentions it in the rules.

    [OT, grammar and punctuation] Use of commas in US and British style?

    I'd like to see more commas in my paycheck! :D Now, as for commas in a sentence, I've always placed a comma before the final "and" or "or," but only if there are more than two items in the list.

    [OT, grammar and punctuation] Use of commas in US and British style?

    (b) is correct. None are. Few are. Some are. Several are. Many are. All are. I think they are called "collective nouns." I can't remember for certain.:o How's this for another grammar peeve: placing punctuation outside of quotes. Something that always bothered me, along with several other...

    Need Good PrC For my Fighter - Please Help

    Re: Which Ravenloft book? The Knight of Shadows is from Van Richten's Arsenal, an excellent book BTW.:cool:

    Thoughts about the nature of evil

    Both LG? I would say yes. However, I want to point out one thing: The actions of the PC jeopardize his paladinhood. Of course, that's a strict interpretation of the rules as presented in the SRD.

    How about a survey on the 3E halfling?

    Hee-hee, you must be new here. Pleased to meet you.:D

    Need Good PrC For my Fighter - Please Help

    Sure... Loremaster.:p Or maybe Dirgist from Ravenloft. :D Seriously, though, again from Ravenloft, maybe Knight of Shadows? As with most things Ravenloft, kind of bleak. Maybe not what you have in mind for him.
