So, I'm totally stealing your idea. I was thinking about it, and it makes for an awesome BBEG. Have you ever heard of the game Arcanum? The boss apparently goes to the land of the dead, sees its a paradise, and decides to kill everybody in the world so that they don't have to suffer anymore (or...

something else you'll need to think about is who keeps reincarnating him? what is their purpose? they would likely manipulate him to meet the ends. or is it some kind of glitch in the universe? Like neo from the matrix, just an inevitable outcome of an imperfect system.

what do your characters find 'cool' about vampires? the lore, or just because they're powerful? i would try to find out more about what their reasoning behind it is, if you change too much it might destroy the idea anyway. And besides, you could easily make a campaign where they're vampires...

That could work if the player is willing to play a WF. Keep some things in mind though: Why would the residents here (a shadar-kai commander and several shadow-gnomish denizens, and a disguised captured oni) have this random lifeless warforged sitting around? How would the dragonborns soul be...

How close is the party to the oracle? You could totally work something in there - "how can We return our companion to life?"

i think the best way to do it would just be introducing a coughing or sneezing to one of the NPCs they have to deal with

Little background - I'm running a homebrew game, 3.5 with some houserules, and have 2 more characters that need to join the party. I figured a way to insert them in an epic battle mid sea. Current party: Half Silver Dragon (half human) bard, princess of a nation and just recently allied 3...

the best way to handle it is to rewind a bit, Why was the city destroyed 100 years ago? What caused it? why did it take so long for the rift to tear? who gave the pcs the canopic jars? what are their motivations how did the wizards souls end up in the jar? fill in all the holes, and...

you could even combine one of the above ideas with another of your own. perhaps someone created the storm to throw the party off their track - distract the party while he enacts some other plan elsewhere. of course that would only really be applicable if the pcs have a known enemy in the area

Theres a 3.5 suppliment called "Sandstorm", so if you were thinking of keeping it limited to Arrakis you could use that for alot of ideas. If you were thinking of utilizing the whole galaxy, you might want to look to sci-fi refrences like the star wars d20 game, etc. Plenty of stuff out there...

one that was used on me - paraphrased: "You start in your home in the forest. Your father had gone out hunting, but you decided to stay and work on your studies. Suddenly you hear commotion outside." I ran outside to find my father under attack by some unknown assailants. I failed to save him...

thanks, thats basically what i was going to do the way i'm planning it is, sure the orc warriors all have studded leather and battle axes..but whos going to buy all those? they'd have to go through troublesome work to sell it rather than just unload at the local armorsmiths like usual also i'd...

hey, was wondering if anybody would like to draw my character for me he's cleric of nerull/necromancer wizard, only level 2 atm so no magical items, and its a poor world so his clothes are probably pretty dirty/damaged he's about 6'0, dark skinned half-elf, shaved his head bald. not thin, but...

Hey all...I'm making a D&D campaign set in a very economically poor world, but I don't want the PCs to be underpowered so I'm going to skim a certain amount of gold/drops off encounters after i roll them normally, and distribute their GP value as "item exp" that can be used to enhance their...

i once played a 2e dwarven fighter i was in a dungeon, and a trap dropped around me - stone walls surrouned me, giving me barely enough room to move. I hear a voice in my head -"break the stick to escape" now, this trap had fallen twice before...both times breaking the stick let them escape...

consider this idea stolen lol, i'm going to skim gold/treasure off the encounters (its a low economy world) and let the players 'spend' it on magic enhancements, this way: a) even though the world lacks cash/magic items, the PCs aren't underpowered for their CL b) their magic items are always...

what part of austin area? i'm from NE san antonio but its not that long a drive and when do you play?

sorry to bump, but is anyone able to help with this?

i dm an online campaign for some of my friends, and there will most likely be an areal combat coming up a half-celestial fighter in my group is going to be taking on a red dragon...while physically he's no match (will be ECL 9 or 10 against a juvenile red..) he intends to use his greater...

yes, the victim is someone they know - someone from morgrave univeristy who's been helping them out and they had just seen him before they left for baran's keep, and were coming back to discuss a finding with him they will probably find the body...the spirit telling them to help avenge his...
