    D&D 3E/3.5 Custom Spells for 3.5 - Are these balanced?

    Hi EN Worlders, I was thinking of adding these spells to my game, and wanted to know if they were overpowered/underpowered, or just right. Some of them also might be redundant as I haven't looked through all the published books. Here goes: Deft Strike [Transmutation] Brd 1, Sor/Wiz 1...

    N00b DM Questions

    See, here's the thing though. Would Silence work on incorporeal creatures like ghosts, spectres, etc.? If the ghost did not make the save, does the Silence follow them around wherever they go? If the answer is YES, then I would assume it would also follow a Spiritual Weapon around. They are both...

    N00b DM Questions

    The silence on a spiritual weapon is something people could consider "cheap" just because there is no saving throw against it. It makes it so two 3rd/4th level Clerics can probably turn a much higher level spellcaster or bard useless within one round (two if it's a single Cleric) First Cleric...

    N00b DM Questions

    Hello, I am back with another question. :) My question involves spells cast on incorporeal creatures and objects. If someone casts Silence on a ghost, does it follow the ghost around? Or does it just affect the area? What about casting silence on a summoned creature? What about casting Silence...

    PC threatening PC. What to do?

    I myself am pretty new to DMing, only having a year's experience. Fortunately, this hasn't happened to my group, but if it did, you could always use a deus ex machina on them. Basically, what I'd do is have some of the townsfolk start talking about it, then it eventually gets back to the...

    Story Help Needed: A Drug Addicted Halfling Village! -on a lake!!

    I think I will set it up somewhat like this.... They already have two drug addicted halflings with them at the moment, because they just got off the zombie island. (Don't ask :lol: ) They are asked to return them to their village, since it is on the way to where they will most likely head back...

    Story Help Needed: A Drug Addicted Halfling Village! -on a lake!!

    Hey all, my players may be coming up to a village soon, and the thing about this village, is it's a halfling village that they are almost ALL addicted to a powerful narcotic. It used to be a peaceful and hard working village, but then the pirates came and introduced this drug to the population...

    Role Playing During Battle

    Oh, when I say non intelligent, I'm talking about when they fight animals. There is not much opportunity to RP when they are fighting a basalisk. Well, unless I make the basalisk talk, but that is a bit unrealistic.

    Role Playing During Battle

    Hi gamers, I was wondering what I should do in this situation. (I am a DM for 3.5) In my group, there are 5 to 6 players in it. I like to keep a balance between battle and RPing. The only problem is, some of these players love the RPing part, while others seem to really like battles. One of...

    N00b DM Questions

    Hi, I have a question regarding Frost Giants, and was wondering if this is real. From the d20 SRD, the attack of a Frost Giant is as follows: That x3 at the end there, that means it can attack 3x in one round?? That seems impossibly high. I've got a party of 2 fighters, 1 swashbuckler, a...

    Wandering Monsters - yea or nay?

    I've used wandering monsters, and to a larger extent, wandering NPCs to great effect in my campaign. Wandering NPCs usually turn into some good RPing, while wandering monsters just on a battle grid don't seem to be as fun as NPCs. Generally, the players either a) try and avoid them, or b)...

    RP EXP In Unexpected Places!

    Wow! I have to spread some XP around before giving it to you again, but I was gonna say, mind is blown! That is one random story that turned into probably several hours of play! Kudos.

    D&D 3E/3.5 3.5 Feat - Intuitive Attack + Crossbows

    Hi EN World, Quick question my Cleric in the party asked. He would like to take Intuitive Attack as their feat, and he was wondering would this apply to crossbows? He asked: and another player replied: and yet another:

    RP EXP In Unexpected Places!

    I am sure this has happened to you guys before, but I'd like to tell you a little story about what happened in my group last week. I have a map, and when they move across the map, I roll to see what sort of monsters they may run into. I made a list myself, and on the list, there were certain...

    on Trading Miniatures

    Hrmm, I have a bunch of minis I will probably never use in my campaign. I would like to get a bunch that I might, potentially use in my campaign. Perhaps a picture thread is in order.

    D&D Minis... Who is bumbed about the end of production?

    At least we still have Legendary Encounters miniatures. Reaper Miniatures :: Miniatures Speaking of which, there is a possibility some other company might try and pick up the slack left by Wizards and ramp up production of their own line of minis. We can only hope.

    Another Monster I made another monster, and I plan to unleash one or two of them on my level 4-5 party this Friday. Here is a picture of it. It is a Terrorbeak, and it hunts either solitary or in pairs. Its main meals are usually giant scorpions, called Sandstriders, but will turn to...

    How do you make a campaign world come to life?

    I've only DM'ed (and currently only DMing) one campaign, but my world has come alive. I'm not a veteran DM by any means but in my opinion, it's about conflict, conflict, conflict! That is the first reason players adventure. Everything else revolves around that. Give them a problem first...
