    Caster level after only 1 fatespinner lvl?

    I disagree. While you only get more spells based on the +1 spell level, I believe most PrC advance caster level 1/level regardless of increased spells. (ex Fatespinner, Divine Agent). Some PrC have their own spell advancement so for them I use the PrC level as the caster level (ex Assassin...

    Any advice for a first time Psychic Warrior?

    Having played a Psi-Warrior (this was actually the character my account is named for) to 7th level (before he was disintegrated by a Beholder), I can honestly say the class is a blast to play. I am also the DM in the game with the Stone Giant Polymorphing monstrosity (and yes, they met stone...

    Characters from ForceUser's Vietnamese Story Hour

    I found this method about 6 months or so on the boards (KenjiB was the originator) and we've pretty much universally adopted it going forward. I don't think the originator called it the Organic 28 point buy, but it's what we started calling it soon after we implemented it. It works like this...

    ForceUser's Vietnamese Adventures Story Hour! (finis)

    It was a readied spear but not a critical. Lei rolled max damage so it was almost as good... I definitely wasn't looking forward to fighting that ape up close :D

    Characters from ForceUser's Vietnamese Story Hour

    As a player in this game, I thought I'd post my character (Han Vinh) here and encourage others in the campaign to do the same. Periodically, I will post higher levels of Vinh (should he survive) to show his growth path. Note: All starting characters in this game were 28-pt buy and human...

    Your college exp

    Yes, I went to college. Ironically, didn't play much d&d but definitely hooked up with the gaming crowd that was there. Back then we spent most of our gaming energies on Runequest, ICE, CoC and Champs and its fantasy version. To this day, my D&D connections are with the guys I played with...

    Movement and 5-ft. Step (Standing Up)

    I disagree with Forceuser. Move equivalent action do not eliminate 5' steps. To cite some examples; 1. Fighter draws sword (MEA) , 5' adjust to be adjacent to orc, attacks orc (MEA, 5' adj, Standard Action). This is ok. 2. Wizard gets up from prone, 5' adjust to create room to cast...

    Actually druids must have neutral as part of their alignment but this makes neutral evil, chaotic neutral, neutral, lawful neutral and neutral good. Still a nice variety and you can still pull off your barbarian druid. Animal Friendship does rock tho...

    How big is your campaign world? How many people? What type of terrain?

    Campaign World I always use Earth as the basis for my campaign world and just move the locations around. My current game is set in Indonesia. The characters are 12th level now and have spent their entire campaign life on Borneo. I find real world maps are easy to use and the PCs rarely...

    What's the most USELESS Wizard Spell?

    One point on gust of wind, It is the perfect defense for Cloudkill, Stinking Cloud, Obscuring Mist, etc. and that gives it some real value. Can you imagine the horror of a HL wizard who cast cloudkill to wipeout an army when his own spell is turned back against his own army....
