    OT: Local Game Store in RDU area

    Magic Armor & Armor Check Penalty

    Hi If you have +2 half-plate, does the armor check penalty go up/down? The armor check penalty for regular half plate is -7. Does the +2 half-plate make the armor check -5? I thought I read this somewhere, but now I can't find it. Thanks.

    [OT] - Job Hunting

    Hi A long-time lurker, I've seen a few people and threads that seem to lament the same situation I'm in presently--unemployed. So, I thought I might post something here in hopes that it may help me or others. Having been unemployed since February, I've been told that one of the best ways of...

    Discovering messages/notes/etc.

    During a game, when players search the recently-deceased enemies/secret hideout/etc., sometimes they'll come across a note/message/etc. Usually it's some sort of order from higher-ups (kill the heros, meet here afterwards, etc.). I used to just give the players the message (in some...
