By and large I was leaning towards what the majority of the posters here say: give them XP. I am inclined to give a fair bit, too, because the RP and character drama were great. But let me further explain the dilemma I was trying to decide how much XP to give them when it occured to me that...

In my 4e game, the players got into a fight. At the end, one of the werewolves surrendered. The cleric/avenger, having just rolled his dice (being soon on the initiative) decided that he was going to fire his crit anyway, obliterating the werewolf in a beam of holy light. The other characters...

Don't the citizens need to be able to a) pinpoint the Rogue's location/square in order to target him? b) be within the legal range for their weapon? (i.e. 40 squares) Very gamey, either way.

My Druid always takes the form of a great white bear, but that's just choice and adds character flavour. As others have said, you can be any beast you want. Note that it says explicitly that some item manipulations will be beyond you. This is especially true for skittering sneak and the...

Introduce more storyline roleplaying, or situations which require pure role-playing to navigate and escape. My GM started a new campaign, and the first thing he told us was that we each needed to know 2 of the other characters. We spent roughly an hour figuring out who knew who and fitting it...

I haven"t checked the errata, but I don't think this is in it. I have a player Warlock (Fey Pact) who wants to dual-wield implements. I orginally scoffed at the idea, but I can't find anywhere to suggest she can't, except the specific wording for holy symbols where it says that two Holy sybols...

I used to play mostly casters and rogues in 3.x, and I dislike 4e.

I'm being little defensive about my game here. I hope Simm doesn't take any drastic action like leaving, but that is entirely up to him. I don't think that alignment differences (or differing opinions of an alignment) make for a bad game. 3K073jMSi6 is allowed his version of the neutral...

My thoughts are pretty similar, Engilbrand. As long as the power is 'divine' the source is the deity. He might keep his basic abilities, but I think that any of his more 'divine' powers may backfire. If it causes too big a rules contradiction, I'll just say there is a binding clause in the...

I'm the DM for this game. I'd just like to clear one thing up, and make some comments. By and large I agree with Simm. The warlock's pushing our good Simm down the pit was only partially intentional. She had separated herself from the group, and got somewhat lost in the dark. She started...

How do you make a decent druid NPC? this is to be a recurring villain, and so needs to be a decent challenge until about 10th level when I intend to kill him off. Right now he can be no higher than 3rd. I have never made a druid before: this is my first time DMing. I was thinking of making...

I can't wait to see Belkar up there, getting judged. :)

To continue playing, simply find your local gaming store. There should be plenty willing toake another member into their group. You could also try online. Many games run online now (either email campaigns or others). I am sorry for your loss.

I thought it was just a punchline. I felt sort of sorry for his dad until I read the part about abandoning the oath. I think Roy is too dutiful to not get raised

This is a D&D campaign problem. I have decided to make an evil druid one of the recurring villains in my campaign. Is it just me or do they suck? I read through the spell list almost nothing seems very useful. Worse, I think of any decent builds. This character needs to start at 3rd and go...

Is it possible to bluff PCs? or is it all by the DM? can a PC bluff or diplomacy another PC into not attacking, or otherwise changing their courses of action? My friend says that PCs can do whatever they want, and so cannot be bluffed either by each other or by the NPCs.

Thank you all very much. A few more questions. Why doesn't detect magic use eyes? I thought it did. I don't have book here but doesn't the caster 'see' the auras. wouldn't that make invisibility not visible? this is purely outside of RAW now, as I understand that the 5 ft. square would be...

Detect magic can be used to discern the location of all magical auras in the area. Does this include invisible things?

I only have green dice, and about 200 of them. I love them. They are so green. So green.

Couldn't he just make a jumping charge? I believe that is an action.
