    Leaders

    The game I’m playing in started off with my character being the strong silent type, just some barbarian muscle with a desire to get the job done. The bard in the group, played by Pielorinho was definitely the face of the group and took over in most parley situations. Outside of diplomacy...

    PC vs. PC XP

    freebfrost hasn't said anything to this effect, but if I had to go by the storyline I could see why a druid would take aversion to the ranger skinning the fallen wolf... I mean, the ranger and sorcerer had fallen, and yet they could be healed up and restored to full health. Unless the wolf was...

    Changing the shape of magic items

    I don't see anything outstandingly wrong with it either, So long as its weapons to weapons and otherwise like items to like items. You might want to give the magical effects some sort of saving throw if he's trying to change something like a +int tiara into a pair of gloves, which would be an...

    Knowledge: Local?

    The way I'd play it, would be that knowledge local applies best to the area in which the pc grew up, but would still be applicable outside of that area, albeit with penalties. Otherwise the skill seems pretty weak. For example, Will the Rogue grew up in the city of Kyla, and knows the local...

    Game fantasy first or book/movie fantasy first?

    My start in fantasy came from the D&D cartoon I believe. I'm sure movies like Legend, Dragonslayer and The Dark Crystal were also an influence. After that came Dragon Warrior for the NES, Menzoberranzan for the pc, and Magic The Gathering was the last game before I really got into D&D. As far...

    Does the distance you previously Jumped in a straight line count as "a running start"

    Actually, the motorcyclist does have something to push against, the motorcycle. A person with a mass of 150lbs has a very sturdy surface with which to negotiate its change in position and movement when using the several hundred pound vehicle. A person in mid-air without a greater mass to push...

    How we play the game: Character sheets

    I use Excel spreadsheets. All of the number crunching is done for me, I even have a template creator for polymorphed stats. It also has a spell sheet (bonus spells auto-calculated) a familiar sheet (hp, int, natural ac and BAB derived from PC) and polymorph animal and polymorph humanoid sheets...

    Drider statue (Warning: Bare-breasted artwork!)

    Bah, I beat you all to the punch on the Lolth thing. But I guess Spider didn't want to listen to me and called it a drider anyway. From another source I heard the back was hollow and had some arangement of sculpted flowers or seomthing like that? Perhaps Spider can clarify.

    Uncanny Initiative (Tactical Feat)

    With preemptive strike I am essentially trying to give the player an always readied attack, so long as he's not already focused on combat. I suppose looking at it that way, it would probably be more balanced to say it's a readied standard action attack, instead of an AoO, and not allow a...

    Uncanny Initiative (Tactical Feat)

    In a friend’s campaign I’m playing a dwarf-like Barbarian/Fighter, and having some real fun with him. He’s got all the good stand-by’s for feats, Weapon Focus/Spec: Greataxe, Power Attack, Blindfight, Cleave… but in going for the raging fury of damage and destruction I envision him, I’ve got all...

    How do I make Necro =/= Evil ?

    There's one thing I think is seriously being overlooked here... animated animals. Alot of the moral dilemma comes with animating humans, which is the general norm for most evil necros, having many zombie ans skeletal humans bumbling around their lairs, but perhaps a good necro would abstain...
