    Converting Planescape monsters

    Can I make a request for two other PS creatures? The players in my game are about to do a side quest in our Tales from the Infinite Staircase story and I am running the 2e Planescape Harbinger House adventure as the side quest. Is there any way you guys could do a conversion of these two...

    Need help matching Reaper Bones minis to D&D creatures

    The reaper Flesh Golem is medium while the D&D creature is large. D&D Fire Elementals don't tend to have wings, so I'm hoping to find something to proxy that mini with to cover a wider range of creatures. Also, providing a list to other gamers and telling them that a Flesh Golem miniature makes...

    Need help matching Reaper Bones minis to D&D creatures

    I have a lot of Reaper Bones miniatures that I am not quite sure how to use in my D&D game. Some of them have similar D&D creature names but don't really fit the D&D version of that creature (has a different size or looks completely different). I have gone through all of my D&D books trying to...

    Converting monsters from Tales From The Infinite Staircase

    I would say convert the Shad dead last. It was converted in Denizens of the Inner Planes, so I at least have something to fall back on. I really have no preference for what you guys do next. Doing the easiest conversions first to get more creatures done sooner would be nice. If there is no such...

    Converting monsters from Tales From The Infinite Staircase

    If I am not mistaken, everything has been converted except for the monsters in Tale #3 (Lord of the Worms). I believe this is what is missing: Valgoss Slaiyith Taker of Life Dark Dweller Fly Swarm Land Urchin Silver Golem (which is in Tale #1) I will need all of those for Tale #3. So I suppose...

    Converting monsters from Tales From The Infinite Staircase

    Awesome! My group is still running through this adventure. They will be encountering the Kytons next down the road. Any chance getting a start on the Kyton, Lesser and the Kyton Chainless? Between the two, I'd like to get the Chainless Kyton first. Whichever one is easiest to start with first is...

    Converting monsters from Tales From The Infinite Staircase

    I'm around. :) Just been out of town a lot this past week. How about doing the The "Nupperibo," Maturing Baatorian (page 127, NEW MONSTER)?

    Roll20 vs Fantasy Grounds

    If you are doing Play by Post games, you would have to leave these VTT systems logged online at all times. The DM keeps the server (map) running and players connect to it. You could just load maps on something like google docs or whatever (sorry I'm not familiar with what google has exactly)...

    Advice on a Feint Situation

    Ok. Feint requires a Sense Motive check to work. I follow the only text in the description of Sense Motive that relates to something like Feinting, and you see that as rules lawyering? I'm not trying to nit pick a rule here or dig deep to find a rule to support my side. I flipped to the dang...

    Advice on a Feint Situation

    Ok, please stop insinuating that I am doing this or that. Frankly, you seem to be arguing with me for the sake of arguing. In fact, if you pay attention to what I'm saying rather than being quick to tell me I'm wrong, you will see that we actually agree with each other, except you want to let a...

    Advice on a Feint Situation

    If the roll was made in secret, why would we force a player's actions? The whole reason for rolling in secret is so we don't have to force actions. As I said previously, when rolled in secret, he is moving away not because he knows a feint is coming, but for whatever other reasons he chose to...

    Advice on a Feint Situation

    It isn't an interpretation of the RAW, it is a straight reading and comprehension of the RAW. It also has nothing to do with seeing the blow coming. He's seen lots of blows coming. Some of them may have even missed. Why all of a sudden is he reacting to this particular blow that misses when he...

    Advice on a Feint Situation

    The opponent rolls a Sense Motive check and fails. If that opponent doesn't realize he got duped by a feint because he failed his Sense Motive check, how can he react to a feint when he failed to sense that it was a feint? The feint makes him lose his Dex bonus to AC. Meaning, on your next...

    Advice on a Feint Situation

    If you allow him to withdraw or use total defense vs a successful feint, then you have just made feinting obsolete. Nobody will ever be duped with a feint if they can simply react appropriately to it because they knew it was coming. If he didn't know about the feint, and he withdrew, then that...

    The new DM's mistake

    I purposefully handed out too much treasure for the very first time in our current campaign. They were 4th or 5th level at the time and I boosted a dragon hoard to have over 40,000 gp and around 60,000 gp worth of magic items/valuables. I did it as an experiment to see "what happens". I don't...

    D&D Movie/TV What would a good D&D movie be like?

    Out of curiosity, say a D&D movie was taken seriously, with excellent actors that were on screen to be great characters and not just pretty faces. Would you appreciate watching a D&D movie that paid homage to the old D&D cartoon in the sense that it was about young adults from modern day earth...

    AMA with Monte Cook (Numenera, D&D, Monte Cook Games, Malhavoc Press)

    Hey Monte! I'm a huge Planescape fan and PS is what got me interested in DMing back in the 90's . I still DM a 3.5 conversion of Planescape to this day. I finished running your Dead Gods adventure about 2 years ago and we spent about 3 years playing it due to a lot of extra filler I added in...

    Magical wards of a castle

    The Stronghold Builders Guide book has a ton of magical enhancements for buildings from around page 39-70. There are a ton of magical walls listed in the book along with a boatload of magical abilities that can be added to structures. I only recently learned about this stuff since I rarely...

    Non-lethal damage

    Non-lethal? What is that? You mean when players want to knock someone out, so they do lethal damage until the guy drops to the ground, then they use a Cure Light spell on him? I was about to say that I don't think ranged weapons can do non-lethal but it looks like you figured that out. There...

    Help me price these musical instruments.

    The Song & Silence and the Complete Adventurer books list musical instruments but they do not list their prices. The PHB lists instruments at 5gp each and Masterwork Instruments at 100gp each. This doesn't help much. I'm trying to put a price on these things and the only other source I found...
