I'm running a low-Paragon level game (level 12), and I'm a little concerned about the damage output of the sorcerer. I wanted to run this data by other DM's who might be running games around that level, and see if it's about what I should expect. Take the Chaos Bolt spell. It's an At-Will...

We have a total of four in our group (one DM, three players), and we're looking for one more player. I run a D&D 4E game set in Eberron, and the characters are 7th level at this point. We often play either Friday night or Saturday afternoons, depending on scheduling and the other factors...

The phrasing of the power (1st level at-will) is "if the target starts its next turn adjacent to you, it takes a penalty to speed equal to your Con modifier until the end of its next turn". So does that mean the foe's movement is reduced for one turn or two? Or am I overthinking this?

Or Luck Points, Hero Points, what have you. I’ve been unhappy with how action points work in 4E, so I decided to work on a house rule that ‘fixes’ my own problem with it. I included in this system a way to help players add bonuses to poor rolls as well. I’m looking for useful comments or...

I'm not a big fan of character's sleeping in armor. To me, it's just not in genre - and therefore worthy of a small houserule. What are your thoughts on this, readers? I'm looking to keep it fairly simple, and yet be a penalty. So if you have any suggestions, please let me know. Light...

I intend upon writing up a number of Channel Divinity feats for the deities in my world, and I'd like feedback on them. Here's the first, which is rather a simple one. I wanted a feat that didn't necessarily have an obvious combat effect, as befitting the saint of knowledge and learning. Too...

I have little problem with adventurers going for knock-out blows on their enemies. Heck, it makes for great RPG moments. But the one area I do have a problem is how easy it is. The rules state that if the damage you do to someone is enough to kill, you can instead decide to knock them...

Yeah, yeah. I'm sorry, okay? I know that talking about the economy in D&D is like talking about an incarcerated uncle when you're at the dinner table, but come on. I just have a small question. Please? Ok, based upon the prices for the services and goods in the Players Handbook, in your...

My campaign is very much flavored with steampunk, and I've written up some rules for firearms (slightly more powerful than a crossbow). My question is this - in a campaign with such victorian flavoring, sooner or later someone will 'demand satisfaction' and there will be a duel. Twenty paces...

One of my players wants the Insight skill, but he's a warlord, and it's not on his skill list. He has two options: 1) Take the feat Skill Training: Insight. You get Insight as a skill. 2) Take the feat Soldier of the Faith. You get Insight as a skill, divine challenge 1/encounter, you can...

In order for this mark to stay on a target, you must engage the target (which states in the book, you must either attack it or end your turn adjacent to it). Otherwise the mark fades. I have a Warlord who has the Paladin multiclass feat, and wants to know - Does Commander's Strike count as an...

I'm somewhat confused on whether or not you can use an interrupt on your turn. PH, page 268, under Immediate Action: "Once per Round: You can take only one immediate action per round, either an immediate interrupt or an immediate reaction. If you haven’t taken an immediate action since the end...

I'm thinking about fleshing out healing potions for my campaign, but before I do that, I thought I'd post this query here. What is the purpose for 'heals 10 points of damage and you spend a healing surge?' Can it be a random number? (Such as 1d6+4, for example) I see no obvious reason why...

A previous poster had a question about the Quick Draw feat. Here's his post: Someone in the thread asked a very good question about potions. Does having this feat mean you can drink a potion as a free action? If the answer is no, then that implies that drinking a potion is actually two minor...

Not sure which area this should go in. I'm sure someone will stick it in the right sub-board if this is wrong. I typed up all the stat-blocks for KOTS and made them into a PDF. They're divided by the encounter, with a header and page number for reference. I hope this helps my fellow DM's out...

"When you grant healing with one of your cleric powers that has the Healing keyword, add +3 to the number of restored hit points." How does this interact with Beacon of Hope? Once activated, that grants all healing powers +5 hit points healed until the end of the encounter. With Healer's...

Looking to start up a brand new game (Exalted - Second Edition preferred, but can also do some others, Mutants and Masterminds, Champions, Vampire). Currently we have myself and one player, hoping for three or four more. Friday or Saturday night would be best (more time to play!). PM me for...

Help! I'm starting (ok, restarting) an Eberron campaign, and I'd like to send out a 20 question 'getting to know your character' survey for the players (who like these things, apparently). I did a google search, but I was unable to find anything that remotely resembled what I was looking for...

I'm currently running a pbp game here on EN World, and I'd like to occasionally add images to the game. How do I do that? And is there a limit on the size?

Manhattan, New York Home of Anthony Scarpetti September 12th, 2005 10:35 am Carla Fuentes was a looker. Nice dark hair, fit body, and a pair of lips that could melt that mutant Iceboy. Iceman. Whatever. The point was, Carla was a beautiful woman, but there was no way in hell Tony was going...
