    "I hate math"

    Well, can you be more specific about the math to which you refer? I am currently playing an 18th level Cleric. In order to speed things up, I have pre-calculated the affect of all buff spells (and in their various stackig combinations) on his stats, so that whne the time comes, I don't have to...

    Free Comic Day: The D&D comic (Raimiton)

    UNless, looking at the quality (or lack thereof) of the comic they think to themsleves, "wow, this looks so lame. This game must be just as lame. Forget it!"

    Free Comic Day: The D&D comic (Raimiton)

    It's really a commercial for D&D. SPOLIER BELOW-----> It starts out with a group a school kids getting ready to play D&D while welcoming a new member to the group. The DM goes over the basics of character creation, and then it switches to seeing the actual characters as the "session"...

    Balance of Good and Evil

    In my campaign world, the gods (D&D pantheon) are battling for control of one particular world, known as the "last world" because whomever controls it can bring back one of the two progenitor gods (good or evil). The gods themselves can not touch the world directly, and must work through their...

    Free Comic Day: The D&D comic (Raimiton)

    Well, I made a trip to my LFG/CS to pick up my free copy of the D&D comic, and one for my step-son. The artwork of this comic ranged from pretty bad to down right horrid. If the purpose of this comic was to a. introduce new players to the game, and b. to give them some basic instruction to the...

    Flowcharts and Adventure Design

    I work similar to Jericho, since I run a relatively free-form campaign. I know what all my villains have planned, and for a particular adventure I start with a premise, (eg. three people have been kidnapped over the past two weekd from a small village) then make a list of clues and encounters...

    Staying silent while not moving

    Should a mechanic be applied to PCs who are either trying to hide quietly (unmoving) or simply tring to stay quiet? I would argue that when you are trying to stay quiet while unmoving you still need to master things like the sound of your breathing, and metallic items (like clicking armour...

    Bluff v. Sense Motive clarification request!

    I would argue that this: "<A lie told> (Successful check) "That's not really true." " should be changed to this: <A lie told> (Successful check) "That _may_ not be true." I don't think a successful Sense Motive check tells You something is untrue, but rather something seems wrong about it.

    D&D 3E/3.5 Errata for 3.5 PHB

    I'm sorry if this has been covered long before now, but I only just purchased the 3.5 PHB, and when I downloaded the most recent errata from WotC I was surprised to find it is only 1.5 pages. Is this right? Are there really only one and a half pages of errata for the 3.5 PHB? Is there a FAQ as...

    shooting/trowing strait up

    What about relatove motion of the flying creature, wind force & directon, and the rotation of the earth? As a DM I would probably give a neg mod to the Atttack role, or up the defender's AC.

    Grappling rules & beholders

    Sir whiskers: I'm not sure that encumbrance should apply to a Beholder's ability to fly. If a person (or creatures dependant onlegs to move) is carrying to much weight, the reason the can not move is that they are forced to towards the ground and can not move their legs do to the weight on them...

    Grappling rules & beholders

    The rules lawyer of my group states that using a Spell like ability in a grapple requires a DC20+Spell Level Concentration check to pull off, so unless your beholder has lots of ranks in Concentration, or an incredibly high CON, it's unlikely to work.

    Has anyone ever tried to 'save' you from D&D?

    I've been playing for about 19 years now, and I don't remember anyone trying to "save" me for religious reasons. In Toronto, Canada things are a lot less "religious" than is some parts of the US, so it seems to be less of an issue. I do recall my friends and I had some trouble in highschool...

    Grappling rules & beholders

    In a recent session the heroes found themselves facing a beholder who flew up out of his pit lair. The beholder lost initiative, and one of the strong PCs preceded to jump onto and grapple the beholder. The players (some of whom also DM) argued that the beholder could not move without breaking...

    Help? Irish or Scottish myth of cursed stone.

    Y'all, I need a little help tracking down a myth possibly from Ireland or Scotland. The son of a friend claims his teacher told his class a myth about a cursed stone of some sort (could be a jem, could be a rock) that brings bad luck to whomever possesses it. Apparently the only way to rid...
