I’ve decided to introduce short stories in-between chapters to allow readers to take a look at what’s happening ‘behind the scene’ elsewhere in my world. Note that while these will always be connected to the SH to some degree, you may not always see the relationship right away. Take them as...

All of them. They were simply too good not to :) Actually, you have the list in my document on clerical spellcasting. Given you own the book too, you know there are *cough*a few more*cough* but those aren't meant for Good/Neutral clerics. So, I left them out (if only because discovering their...

Blackfeather, I must admit I am a wee bit confused by your post. Is it meant to interact with my SH or start a new one? If it's the latter, methink you would have been better inspired to start a new thread... :confused:

Thank you! That was the purpose, of course. I was a big fan of the clerical Spheres back in 2E. While I can appreciate the fact that 3.0/3.5E is trying to place every priest out there on the same footing, ultimately I find it.. well, dumb :\ If I, worshipper of the goddess of healing, have the...

Eh, as I promised, from now on I'll try to stick with shorter but (hopefully) more frequent updates ;) Glad you liked it! Don't worry though, despite Pelrind's best wishes the team continued to hack&slash its way through encounters but they also gave him the chance now and then to shine as...

Eh, I would never have guessed from your style that you were writing from down under! As for me, all I'll say is :o Oh, aye, and that I have updated my own SH as a result of your numerous praises as well ;)

House rules/monsters/NPC/special items from Chapter 1: Something that always struck me as counterproductive in D&D is the manner in which magic weapons are handled. Let’s face it, many of the different spellcasters have access to ‘weapon-enhancing’ spells but rarely if ever use them in-game...

There we go at long last! Sorry again for the delay folks. I wish to thank all those who kept this thread from fading to page 4 and beyond, and who encouraged me to continue posting updates. This SH is yours as much as it is mine for without loyal readers, an author is nothing. Oh and, Pogre &...

You and me both, man! Still, after a two months hiatus, I took the time and my next update is about ready (it was either that or watch Pogre start crying :p ). So, I am bumping this baby. Maybe seeing it back on page 1 will inspire you to do the same ;) BUMP

<finally investigates the SH link from Pogre's sig> <starts reading> <reaches the tenth episode> <beats his head against his screen for not checking this sooner> <continues reading> ;)

Eh, followers of a Good-aligned church and the killing of baby-monsters, the age-old dilemma. I guess most of us DM have been faced by the need to retrofit a 'code of conduct' after dealing with such encounter, especially if the player(s) dealt with it in a way that didn't come close to our...

Poetic justice.. got to love it. Well done Orichalcum!

I much prefer the 'fiction & footnotes' type of Ecology article because that's how they appeared in the old (1E & 2E) issues of Dragon and that's what got me hooked to it. I concur with you that the new version makes it easier to get crucial tidbits in a hurry but it sure does make for a dry...

This one is for you then. Granted, the PC are only now starting to encounter the 'power behind the throne' so to speak but it has plenty of slimy tentacles I assure you ;)

Eh, no problem there. Haven't updated in a while so there wasn't much to comment upon. Look for an update soon though ;) For Conan and the particular issue of summoning fiends, I would recommend stories such as The Snout in the Dark. Though Howard never spent much time describing the ritual...

As someone once said.. Patience Highlander! :p Seriously, the update is almost ready. 'Almost' because after finishing it, I reread myself and wasn't satisfied at all with the result. I guess I am my worst critic :\ The extra delay is due to a totally unrelated problem. Long story short...

Now, that is what I call a.. failed summoning :heh: Lots of info to process there. About the magical 'theories' of your world, I mean. It certainly paints it into new shades worth delving into. I like the fact that you seem to have the same opinion as Lovecraft or Howard about the summoning...

Well, I'll be! It worked. Seems technology isn't so bad compared to magic after all :p A fair warning: I am aware GRP updated the Unholy Warrior to 3.5E in the Book of Fiends but I didn't like their version as it is different from the way the paladin is handled in 3.5E. My own version was done...

No, they're not in French. No worry on that account. Actually, all my campaign files are fully in English. I have quite a few DM pals around the world and we exchange campaign info and ideas on a regular basis, so doing it all in English from the start helps (else I would lose days translating...
