    How do Factotums gain spells?

    Someplace said that any spell they see, they can cast so long as it's of Wizard/Sorcerer spell list, of level 7 or lower, and doesn't have an xp requirement. Also, that they don't need a spellbook. But aside from them not needing a spellbook the book describing their class doesn't appear to...

    Technological Advancement and World Peace in DnD Campaign.How would/have you done it?

    Can't say with absolute certainty why. Ego? Cause world peace, rule the world, poh-tay-toh pah-tah-toh. Because it's what you do? Rising to meet the new scale in power whatever it may be? Practice? For the day I stop sitting around ignoring the potential anyone with a brain has to take over the...

    Technological Advancement and World Peace in DnD Campaign.How would/have you done it?

    I personally don't trust the gods in real life and my character reflects that. Present records of the ones described to me show them making too many serious mistakes. Fantasy gives both a better and worse chance to have worthy ones. (Heh. Looky, it''s Freud!)

    Technological Advancement and World Peace in DnD Campaign.How would/have you done it?

    No need to worry about death, I'm already planning on how to handle it. There are a number of techniques which would allow eternal youth so long as they're maintained without affecting or seriously affecting species. One, a pair of Feat which gives access to a skill capable of allowing someone...

    Technological Advancement and World Peace in DnD Campaign.How would/have you done it?

    Viktyr Korimir World peace doesn't have to lead to Stagnation. It would be a serious concern and has made me think that a truly Perfect society would need to be "Imperfect." An example given by the Author Mercedes Lackey, in their book "Fortune's Fool" had one of the main characters leaving...

    Technological Advancement and World Peace in DnD Campaign.How would/have you done it?

    RUMBLETiGER We have cleric in our party, and no ones said anything to indicate the god/desses are gone so they're probably there. Greenfield So one of the factors that needs to be dealt with is a substitute for war? No, wait that wouldn't make sense. At most such a thing would only reduce the...

    Technological Advancement and World Peace in DnD Campaign.How would/have you done it?

    Background I'm intending to attempt world peace and rapid public dispersal of information and technology by creating the internet in our DnD campaign. Question What are methods and/or equipment which either could, or has been instrumental in increasing the likelihood of world peace, and...

    Contruct/Golem: Elemental Driver or Item Familiar Driver.

    Was intending to make a construct that would follow at long distance behind the party with backup equipment. Didn't like the idea of enslaving an Elemental to do so and intended to research a spell that would let me contact and bargain with one who had human level intelligence (At least 10.) so...

    Awaken spell question

    The de-aging spell Life Steal could be used in a non-evil manner if you change the target to yourself, then use restoration spells. It's what I'm planning on doing. Craft magic item with both attached. Rejuvenation chamber. Something else which came up when looking for methods of eternal youth...

    Spell Progressions, Delayed Detonation, Landmine Spells, Auto Turret Spells?

    Am intending to research spells in-game and was wondering if there already was a list or formula for how to determine the manner in which spells would progress or regress from lower to higher, and higher to lower. Present spells of interest: Sleep Scry Message Is there already a progression...

    Out of Combat Casting: Lower Level, More Power.

    Has anyone heard, seen, or done spell research in-game which makes a virtual copy of a spell which takes a standard or swift action to cast, and then made a near twin of it which takes longer to cast or requires more to up the spells power and/or reduce it's spell casting requirements? Change...

    Players can't force a 20, but can they force a 1?

    Two things that have been coming to mind are: Appearing inept in front of someone to appear relatively harmless. Being unable to achieve some task when in a hostage situation. Basically so I wouldn't have to make a bluff check. Oh, and comedy. Sorry about this but I need to go to bed...

    Players can't force a 20, but can they force a 1?

    The reason I'm asking is for Control. I can't control when I'd have a good roll but if there's a way to control times when I'd have a bad roll, there might be something I can use it for. And no, I don't have anything in mind. It's just that being able to throw a pebble isn't very...

    Players can't force a 20, but can they force a 1?

    Would you allow a player to say that instead of rolling to determine success, they wanted it to be assumed they had rolled a one? To summon bad luck? This is based on the assumption that being allowed such a thing leaves it in the GM's hands on how "Bad Luck" was to be interpreted? Since...

    Are there bare handed combat classes you can visit multiple times?

    Are there any martial artist classes that don't say if you take a level in another class you can no longer progress in this one? I'm planning on being a Factotum/Artificer and was looking for something that would give an edge for when I've been disarmed and placed in a cell, but broken out and...

    Charisma based Wizards: Do they exist?

    Nah. Their main stat is Charisma, my Factotum's main stat is Intelligence. And I'm not talking about adding to their Sorcerer's spell list just some form of spellcaster who uses Charisma for their spellcasting since they're only gaining 3 skill points a level(2 per level of Sorcerer/Argent...

    Charisma based Wizards: Do they exist?

    I'm playing a Factotum who will be able to create spells. A fellow player is using a Sorcerer/Argent Savant/Earth Dreamer who I believe only gains spells through leveling. They're now looking into prestige/classes which follow their main stat of Charisma. I've been trying to find a class based...

    Knights of the Virgin

    My apologies. I shouldn't have insulted the original poster and the biblical reference was unnecessary. And potentially incorrect. Where does the golden rule come from anyway? Also, could someone place a link to EnWorld's rules? I'm having trouble finding them.

    Knights of the Virgin

    That would only reduce infiltration issues and would severely reduce both the orders military strength and public image. However, I can appreciate having such orders in a campaign I was in. The thought of being allowed to smash them makes my eyes glow red and my teeth turn sharp as I smile.

    Knights of the Virgin

    First off, if the campaign you're considering making is supposed to be Player Characters (PC's) being put into a world of two extremes you aren't taking it far enough. If it's a Thought Experiment: The Order of the Scarlet Woman will have to allow total homosexuality and use the charm spells on...
