Homunculus An aging king is constantly falling asleep and the kingdom is falling to the clutches of evil. A trusted ally of the king has seen bites upon the king and started an investigation into the matter, he enroles the help of the pc's to investigate matters. Whilst investigating the pc's...

I did a post called Are Pc's always ruining adventures with magic and it seems that you're getting to the same point where players are able to just bypass pretty much everything with their spells, I had a lot of replies stating that stopping spells was wrong and that they should be used but...

I like the more time idea as I don't think that there's enough time played with the chats and checking up on rules etc. I'd like to play for about 5-6 hours. As for the time spent on prep for a campaign, I just tend to get a rough idea either using a monster or set of monsters and wing it in...

What sort of swarm are you talking about?? Rats, bees, crawling claws??? What weopons are being used?? Standard weopons or spells with area of effects?? IMO if the characters are using weopons then there'll be a minus to hit but you should be able to strike at the things without touching a...

A Ravenloft setting for the Gibbering Mouther. A doctor calls the for outside help when his patients and staff start to disappear and strange noises are heard throughout the assylum. He tells the group that a creature of nightmares is loose and killing patients and staff and that strange noises...

Undead rule and you shall all agree with The Kender or ill animate you all!!!!! muwahahaahaa. Sorry the all the evil talk and big words got to me there. :) I've always asked the question about animate dead and I know they're only computer games but Baldur's Gate 1 & 2 along with Neverwinter...

Our group used to have a running joke with our dm that magic items were rare and we would grumble over this and generally take the piss when we got a naff item like a spoon of gruel creating, then a player found the magic buying section in 3e and we started to use it at 11th level. Now I know...

Well thx for the votes and I'm quite shocked that the druid picked up 6 votes and even the wizard getting a couple. I'm not at all shocked for the top 3 as stated previously and think that those 3 classes will be looked over in my campaign. Maybe dropping the monk as they really are for oriental...

The only idea I can give to you regarding this is if a rogue is in the group he helps to organise the plate wearers to keep quiet by placing cloth in the plates to stop noise but in doing so will restrict movement in the combat giving a penalty to hit.

I'm lucky in the fact that our group has been together for years! I've been playing for 8 and have had my fair share of deaths and arguments over rules etc. I sometimes like a gritty campaign because I think hp's dont really reflect well in a fight, 'I'm ok I've got 200 hp's left' just doesn't...

Hi bud, I like some of the changes, the half elf especially as you may have seen in a post that I think half elves suck!! But I do think the elven racial skill bonuses are a bit too high at +10 each. I know why you think of them so (Legolas) but in giving the elves, half elves and...

There is also the old style Berserker been made, not sure where to find it though but I did see it. It's on a page with a Skald and a load of other chars

Basically the Krayakin were sorts of vampires from a demon world if I recall correctly, there was an unborn child in the book but I think it was a male child. There was a bald headed ginger bearded guy in it who helped to deliver the baby. he travelled with the swordsman nogusta and a couple of...

I agree with you pretty much on all the points regarding the film, my only redeeming feature was the Beholder but that was down to the old EOTB games and really liking the Beholder kin! I would love a company to make a film using 1 of David Gemmells books, He seems to get the background without...

Our group made a mistake and went of the CR rating of +1 and so far there hasn't been any trouble with them. We've got 2 currently and I played 1 as a Druid. The later abilities though would knock it up though, being able to summon a Celestial creature (Summon Monster 9) is way cool!! Oh my Pet...

But in reply to lack of wisdom is it not wise to use your abilities when you think you are safe or should they just sit and fester like a rotting wound?? I thought I was in relative safety for the movement and 1 failed fear check killed the char, surely there should have been a 2nd for the...

The Frenzy was down to too much damage to make the save I've revisied the rules slightly for my campaign to make it a little fairer for pc's

I've had this happen with 2 characters and at the time was very annoying, now just frustrating as I've had to make another char :) Anyway the abilities that did me in were Frenzy for a Frenzied Berzerker and Increased movement using the bard/skalds music that made me run faster than the party...

Well it's been a nice little poll so far and shows that everyone loves the rogue, so far! I'm not surprised the Ranger is joint tops with the Bard. I've played a Bard and wasn't that keen on him, and only looked at a Ranger once and that was enough to tell me not to bother. I'm using 3.0 rules...

I personally would speak with the Dm, ask him what his house rules are on the situation, if he doesn't know what is happening, explain it to him and see what he says. I know how hard it is to Dm for the 1st time, the amount you have to take in is huge and you do let things slide a bit until you...
