    Vampires and the Daylight spell

    I'm looking in the books, not the SRD. My PHB is even second printing.

    Vampires and the Daylight spell

    If someone could find that for me, it'd be great. It's certainly not in the Vampire template or the Daylight spell.

    Vampires and the Daylight spell

    Are vampires affected by the Daylight spell? The vampire template states: "Exposing a vampire to direct sunlight disorients it: It can take only partial actions and is destroyed utterly on the next round if it cannot escape." The Daylight spell "sheds light as bright as full daylight...

    Sagiro's Story Hour Returns (new thread started on 5/18/08)

    And speaking of all these debts, whatever happened to Mrs. Horn, anyway? Have we heard what's the latest with her? And since I've been lurking for the last, oh, 50 episodes or so, allow me to again be with the heaping praise and say: Dang, this story hour is still the best!

    did the main site take a dump?

    :D All better now. Thanks, Blacksway!

    did the main site take a dump?

    "Session initialisation failed" is the actual text of the message. This happened a couple of weeks ago, and one of Morrus' many Assistant Heroes fixed something-or-other that had become corrupted. *searching* Ah, here's the thread when we last had this problem. Blacksway had to recreate the...

    [WOTC] Revised Corebooks for July confirmed with info

    You know what else? If they do revisions to the classes, e-Tools will be out of synch. *sigh*

    What's your gaming history before coming to 3e?

    I'm one of those rare birds in role-playing who didn't play D&D until 3rd ed. came out. I've played plenty of other systems over the last 15 years, but no previous edition of D&D had a rules system I could stomach, even if I liked a lot of the trappings of the game such as "standard fantasy...

    Trouble posting

    Sorry, Morrus, but I've only been able to get a white page with the text "Session initialisation failed" whenever I go to the main news page. It's been like this all day, and happens when I try to go to http://www.enworld.org/ or...

    On Mithril Hall in the Realms

    ...as well as an excellent book of maps of Middle-Earth. [B] eBay would be your best bet if you want to find this.

    Do you make changes with 3e Rogues?

    I completely disagree. Your plan works well right up until your Rogue goes up against an NPC rogue that's kept skills maxed and is using similar items; the NPC will far outstrip your rogue in ability. In our parties we've found it's better to keep the skill-enhancing items with the characters...

    Do you make changes with 3e Rogues?

    After playing both a Rogue and a Monte Cook Ranger, I've come to realize that one of the most subtle but brilliant designs of the 3e system is the balance between available skill points and number of skills on your class skill list. Both of these classs have a lot of skill points, but there are...

    City of the Spider Queen: Any tips?

    Gadz, without a rogue the party will get blown to smithereens by the very high DC traps sprinkled throughout the adventure.

    Dual-wielding Slings?

    I have yet to see any great proof of this. The feat doesn't specify melee only. The only text I've found that even beats around this bush is in the description for a heavy crossbow (PHB p.100) but that seems like such an out of the way place, as to almost be an afterthought -- as if it was...

    Good Drow

    Oh, come now. That sounds about as valid as decrying anyone who plays a ranger as being a Strider-wannabe, or anyone who plays a (regular) elf as a Legolas-wannabe. I can think of two reasons why someone would want to play a non-evil drow. The first is that they were inspired by Salvatore's...

    Single women gamers

    "Lover" if it's just for sex. (Or one of several other terms that would damage Eric's grandmother's eyesight.) "Girlfriend" if it's casual dating. "Fiance" if you're engaged to be married. I've always been partial to "partner," however, for the situation originally described: physically and...

    The Book of Vile Darkness - it is mine, review within

    So, what's the final big answer on how Demon Lords and Archdevils operate: are they nigh-unto divine and can grant spells (or spell-like abilities) or are they simply very high CR monsters, or some other arrangement?
