    Why have all the fanesy books i've read on recommendation from enworld sucked?

    Another 2 cents from Pylar I don't look for earth shattering content, or a deep philosophical meaning to the fantasy books I read. I vew them as an escape that helps me to relax. I've read most of the stuff that has been mentioned up to this point, but like I said just my two cents.. Robert...

    ENWorld's Tampa Gameday went great, now with pictures!

    GAMING RULES!!! Ok, I guess I'd get in trouble by my DM (Dager75) and he might kill my character if I don't show up. And if I'm gonna show up I might as well DM. I've got a D20 Call of Cuthulu module that I ran at Necro. All the players said it rocked, and I wouldn't mind seeing how if...

    [SPOILERS][OT] "Return of the King" -- Does Shelob get shafted?

    Shelob & Gollum I think PJ's decision had a lot to do with the attention span of most viewers that aren't familiar with the book. If he ended TTT with Shelob's attack that would mean that Gollum would be missing from all of ROTK untill he jumps Frodo in Mt Doom. What if you had never watched...

    How do you make a player play a normal character?

    Ask him to DM a game, and play a character that resembles one of his. Be as flamboyant as you can about it, go over board. Show him how annoying it can be. Maybe he will get the hint.

    Most interesting Epic Character?

    Epic Rogue I'd go Rogue, and qualify for the Gatecrasher prestige class in Manual of the Planes. It would be pretty unusal for an epic campaign to avoid plane hopping...Heck you can't even find some of the REALLY expensive magic items outside of a city like Union or Sigil. There are a lot of...

    Okay, fess up...

    Tolkien rulz First of all I am a huge Tolkien fan, read the trilogy at least 20 times. (Even read the Sil 6 times). The names he created are great, perfect for a fantasy campaign...but I seriously cringe when I see them in a game. The personality of the characters attached to those names are...

    Best choices for a 9HD Polymorph Other

    Carp.. I've always enjoyed it when a Polymorph Other is used to turn the big bad nasty fighter into a carp, goldfish or other brightly colored animal that requires water to breath. It's fun just to watch them flop around on the groud gasping for their last breath..

    Greater Magic Weapon Question??

    Say a 15th level cleric cast Greater Magic Weapon. That would give a +5 bonus to the weapon. Now if the cleric has a +2 Holy Mace of Frost (which is a +5 equalivant) and cast Greater Magic Weapon on the mace would it become a +5 Holy Mace of Frost? Or because the weapon with it's abilities is...

    What D&D Character Type are YOU?

    Apparently I'm a Neutral Good Half-Elf Paladin...I thought Paladins had to be lawful good??? Sounds confusing...OHHH!! I get it now. Guess it does fit. *S*

    Holy Schmolly do my players cheat something fierce...

    I really didn't cheat.... Ok, I play the Cleric that alledgedly cheated by changing two levels. What the DM is neglecting to mention is that I informed him of the mistake several days before the change and he said OK. I explained that I didn't not notice that Hierophants didn't not advance in...

    Everquest bashing

    I've got alot of friends that play Everquest and Ultima Online. I even tried UO so I could spend more time with them, cause it seemed that was all they were doing. We would waste half of our D&D sessions talking about what their EQ/UO character did the pervious week. Got to a point that I...

    Diplomacy vs. Red Dragon

    If I were running a Red dragon as a DM, My start at diplomacy would be a serious attempt at eating one of the party members...or at least a very convincing bluff of trying to eat the party. Give the dragon the appearance of starting from a better position. And it the party acted in a way that...

    Prestiege Class Question

    I know my DM appreciates it when we take time to develop out character background. Especially when we right up a nifty little narrative for it. Maybe you could convince your DM to let you write a background that includes the death of a loved one by a dragon(ie sibling, parent, beloved puppy...

    Vote your favorite Class

    I'm a huge cleric fan. They are the most versitile character out there. They can fight, cast spells, be successful in item creation. With the right selection of spells you can emmulate almost ANY other classes abilities. Bard would be my second favorite. Especially in a roleplay heavy campaign...

    Cleric over balancing the game

    Thanks for all the help folks. You've givin me a little to think about. As far as the type of cleric I play, he is a Dwarven Cleric of Dumathoin. 9 levels cleric, 5 levels of Divine Disciple, 2 levels of Heirophant. He has spell casting prodigy, craft Arms and armor, Extra Turning, Divine Vigor...

    Cleric over balancing the game

    Hey all, I play at Dwarven Cleric in a plane hopping FR game. I've recently made 16th level. The current party consists of a 14 level Half-Orc Barbarian Ranger, and a 16th level Druid (The Half-Orc has died a couple times) I feel that my character is taking some of the fun away from the other...

    Min/maxing a cleric

    I normally play a cleric in our FR home campaign, and in RPGA. IMHO, THe Divine Disciple route is the way to go. You get an extra domain at first level, your spell level always increases, some really nice saving throw bonuses. And at 5th level the abilities of a native outsider are fun to play...

    Negative Dexterity Modifiers

    Er...I guess I should have looked at the prereqs for Dwarven Defender before I made the character...Oh well.
