    If my checks only lasted six seconds I certainly would.

    The see the unseen debate

    Well apart from situations like the warlock being suddenly awakened from sleep or having it run out during a combat, it seems rather irrelevant to me - warlocks can use all their invocations at will, so they can just immediately get see the unseen back up and running every time it expires. I...

    Energy Enhancements are too good at +1 (math)

    There's also quite a number of creatures with energy resistance. Even energy resistance 5 makes energy enhancements nearly useless, not to mention those with higher resistances.

    Your favourite traps

    I had one crushing wall trap where the trigger plate was smeared with sovereign glue. The floor, of course, was of a pale amber colour so it was very difficult to see the glue - the party rogue luckily rolled very high on a Spot check and noticed the glue, which he mistook for an ooze. One of...

    How many arrows does your PC carry? And who keeps count?

    As a player I keep track of my own ammo (bolts rather than arrows in my rogue/scout's case), have 32 at the moment as we've just got into town. Actually bought an additional 10 but they would have brought me to within two-tenths of a pound of a medium load so I handed them off to another PC...

    [RECRUITING] Romance Of The Three Kingdoms

    I'd like to join in, I'm a big fan of the Three Kingdoms period (hence the username). A question, can we use the marshal class (full write-up here)? It's a 3.5 class, but I it could be used in 3.0 easily enough, and it fits the setting very well I think.

    Weapon vs Armour type modifiers

    Well in your typical D&D campaign you will run across a lot of enemies that you can’t trip or disarm. They’re great against Medium or smaller humanoids (and similar creatures), sure, but to use them effectively you need three feats (four with the spiked chain), and there’s still going to be...

    Ok, need some stra-ta-gy!

    It sounds to me like he'd activated a psionic feat - Greater Psionic Weapon comes to mind. Standing and concentrating for a round would be him becoming psionically focussed, a full round action that requires a Concentration check. A bog standard ogre has 26 hp, and GPW allows you to add 4d6 to...

    Quaal's feather token (bird) question

    Something came up regarding this item in my last session. Is it possible for the bird to be killed through physical means? Unfortunately the description of the item is rather vague, but it's important that this question get answered.

    Need help building rogue

    No build advice, you've got some pretty good advice from others already. I would recommend asking your DM if they allow you to make sneak attacks with spells as spelled out in Tome and Blood (basically, any spell that requires you to make an attack roll can be used to make a sneak attack, as...

    Dervish Dance and Karmic Strike

    Don't forget to give them the Elusive Target feat out of the Complete Warrior. Thanks to the Cause Overreach ability that feat grants you, you can, while dancing, deliberately draw AoOs from your opponents and, if they miss you, make a trip attack against them. Mix in Improved Trip and this...

    Creature subtypes...humanoid v. monstrous humanoid

    If you’re not adverse to using things from the Book of Vile Darkness, you could have it so that the sorcerer has used the addiction spell to get the chieftain addicted to a drug. The chieftain wouldn’t be able to get the drug himself, so the sorcerer would be able to blackmail him in exchange...

    (Tavern) City of Orussus, The Red Dragon Inn V

    Seeing the dwarf come in, Avlogg reflexively went for an arrow, but snatched his hand away quickly. He silently moved off to the side to make sure that the dwarf wouldn’t spot him. Avlogg listened to Thoria’s introduction, his ears pricking up at the bit about healing. “Someone go talk to...

    (Tavern) City of Orussus, The Red Dragon Inn V

    “Perhaps we can ask for some of our pay beforehand, enough for each of us to buy a potion,” Avlogg suggested. He had very little money on him at the moment, certainly not enough to buy such an item.

    (Tavern) City of Orussus, The Red Dragon Inn V

    Avlogg looked over at his brother. “It would probably be a good idea to have a healer along, in case one of us takes a hit,” he says gently, used to his brother’s inspiring but unwise enthusiasm. “Or at least, we can pool together what money we have and buy a few potions.”

    (Tavern) City of Orussus, The Red Dragon Inn V

    Avlogg grinned and nodded at his brother. "Ogres are big and stupid, he'll never even see us coming," he said. "Anyone coming with us? asked Avlogg, glancing at Sara.

    (Tavern) City of Orussus, The Red Dragon Inn IV

    Avlogg nods at Grogg’s last comment. “When goblins disagree, the results are rather ugly,” he says with a wince. “I’m Avlogg. Grogg here is my brother,” Avlogg introduces himself to the halflings.

    (Tavern) City of Orussus, The Red Dragon Inn IV

    Avlogg winced when he heard the cry of ”Goblins!” nearby. He and Grogg had previously been chased from towns by people screaming that same cry, but this time it was not farmers with pitchforks and torches, but a confused halfling uttering that word. Grogg quickly struck up a conversation with...

    (Tavern) City of Orussus, The Red Dragon Inn IV

    In behind Groggnir walks a smaller, lean goblin in dirty travelling clothes and with a bow and sword slung over his back. Though he is much smaller than Groggnir, it is obvious from their faces that the two are related. The smaller goblin follows along after his brother, his footfalls making...
