Yes, 3pm on Saturday would work fine for me (most weekends). I also agree that a preliminary get-together to meet and discuss would be a good idea. Thanks. :)

A person from a different forum was kind enough to point out that it should be "emanation" rather than "burst". Thank you.

I used the tribal name from the ERB book for the name of this creature. (See the credits section at the bottom.) Thark Huge Monstrous Humanoid Hit Dice: 5d8+5 (27 hp) Initiative: +0 Speed: 35 ft. (7 squares) Armor Class: 16 (-2 size, +3 natural, +3 hide), touch 8, flat-footed 16 Base...

I live in Bellevue, WA. and I'm open to gaming on weekends. (I already chatted privately w/ Kamosa about his thread.) Thanks. Bio: gaming c. 20 years, mostly as a player; interested in D&D v3.5, HERO, or GURPS; mostly Fantasy & Sci-Fi groups. :)

I think the Strength bonus for secondary attacks is usually halved, and it's also got one more feat coming. Perhaps Deception? Otherwise it looks good.

One other thing: it's based on a pact with evil powers, rather than being a true Wizard-like class. So spell books are useful but not mandatory. The class should also get the enhanced familiar feat for free.

I need a class (not a multi-class or PrC) for an evil warlock. I'm thinking along the lines of a class that allows only necromancy, divination, illusion, and universal school spells, certain transport spells such as teleport or plane shift, plus the cleric spells from the Death, Destruction, and...

Orb of Confusion: A crystalline sphere small enough to hold cupped in the hand, this magical orb glows with a faint white light that illuminates the frosted, colorful surface. The exterior displays a mesmerizing panalopy of shifting colors and hues, resembling somewhat a puddle of water coated...

For melee attack I get: base atk +15; size -1; Str +11; guided weapons +8, for a total of 15-1+11+8 = +33 Am I off somehow?

Well that's odd, most of the book is in Times Roman font, which is very common, plus some Arial. Are you getting a particular error message? Perhaps your download was corrupted? Are you using the latest version of the Acrobat Reader? That might help with the font substitution.

Good catch, thanks Dem. :)

Unless I'm mistaken, the skill ranks don't match up to the ability modifiers plus skill bonuses for the Tarantella Spider. For each of the spider special abilities with a save DC, it's normal at v3.5 to also list what ability the save DC is based upon. That's useful, for example, if a monster...

Another monster for the Book of Beasts. Problems? Suggestions? Questions? Thanks. :) Bole Small Monstrous Humanoid Hit Dice: 2d8+9 (18 hp) Initiative: +4 Speed: 20 ft. (4 squares), climb 10 ft. Armor Class: 19 (+1 size, +4 Dex, +4 natural), touch 15, flat-footed 15 Base Attack/Grapple: +2/+1...
