    How do you like your elves best?

    Medium Rare - which is to say, medium power levels and there aren't a lot of them.

    What settings do you love?

    Thanks! ...but no bonus XP and I'm not pulling any punches. You guys were a FULL two hit points from a TPK, plenty of "cushion".

    A Riddle: Feedback Wanted

    I got it...but that having been said, I agree...your players will kill you unless they are just "into" that kind of stuff.

    Eric Noah, stay out of this thread. Everybody else, hop on in.

    When I first heard that 3.0 was coming out I kind of dismissed it...I'd grown fond of other games. One day I heard it was going to have a good skill system though, so I did a web search on where I could learn more. I found ENWorld. I have to say, that were it not for the discussion here I may...

    What does "access to a domain" actually mean?

    It means that through a Class Ability, such as that possessed by the Cleric or a few PrCs, you must have one or more "Domains"...Good, Healing, Sun, Light, War, Destruction, etc. etc. Possessing one of those domains satisfies the requirement for having "access" to it. You have to specifically...

    When Adventure Designers Cheat

    I voted for: It's a good thing. Designers should create new rules to challenge the players. But I really wanted another option between that and neutral. I think it's fine if used in moderation and not taken to ridiculous lengths.

    Campaign help request

    It's the pommel stone in a magical pickaxe that sheds light, allows the wielder to mine without suffering fatigue, and acts like a rod of Metal and Mineral Detection (unfortunately, removing the pommel stone renders the pickaxe non-magical). A section of the cave ceiling and wall was...

    Planar adventuring

    I use my own material based on all of the above.

    Airship hadn't taken off yet, they were only 5 feet off the ground.

    How many people have you played D&D with?

    Exclude conventions and one shot games...and the number will drop dramatically for a lot of people I bet.

    How many people have you played D&D with?

    101+ I started playing in 1990, when I was in the Navy. In the Navy alone in different duty stations I played with about 30 different people. Once you add in the various groups I've played in since 1995 when I got out of the Navy (Upstate New York - 2 groups, Austin Texas - 3 groups, Omaha...

    It's clear to me that Thog was in a Leprechaun costume, because things that are suspect seem less harmful if represented by a Leprechaun. Thereby the citizens would be 'taken' by the Alpaca ruse and allow it into the city. Within the day of sitting in the VERY hot sun, the potato salad will...

    Sneak attack on an Eldritch Blast?

    You'd have to be within 30 ft., just like any other ranged sneak attack, right? (Unless of course you had a feat or ability to extend the range...does one exist?).

    Pre-designed world Vs Starting from scratch

    It's funny how much something that has never happened can impact your decision making process. For instance, I have never had someone try to correct me or argue logistics, geography or history with me while using a published setting. However...the very fact that it MIGHT happen, keeps me...

    I Have A Problem With 3E

    1. Multiclassing Disagree...if someone wants to be "ok" at 5 different jobs, that's fine with me. In real life I've know people who had a multitude of different, unrelated talents, so why not in game? I often make multi-classing even less restrictive. In my opinion, the only thing wrong with...

    Reincarnate = Immortality?

    I think the aging rules are contrived and forced. It seems like a heavy handed mechanism just shoe horned into the system for a sense of balance since there are no level caps really. So, I just pretty much ignore the aging rules.

    Where have all the heroes gone?

    Pure opinion here, please don't take offense. If you are incapable of finding a hero or a "good guy" that can capture your interest and feed your imagination...then maybe RPGs aren't for you. Go find a nice, boring desk job that doesn't require you to strain your brain too much, get an XBox...

    Dice spinning

    I don't spin my dice, but I fiddle with things. I'm not at all bored and I'm playing close attention. However, in my career, multi-tasking is an absolute necessity. I have done it for so long and so extensively, that...I just can't stop. I am almost incapable of sitting there and doing one...

    If item creation didn't use Xp, what should it use?

    I'd have it use rare and hard to find components...all but the simplest of which would not be purchasable. So, if you want to scribe a scroll, you just need the right ink and paper, you can buy that. You want to make a +5 Dragon Bane Sword...that's a WHOLE other matter. You might need a...
