... In the beginning primal chaos ruled... :D

My players don't really go for Gish'es but I know a lot of folks around here have issues with its implementation in 3.xe. A possible fix occured to me which may well have been suggested in house rules, but I don't usually check out this part of the boards so please ignore if it has. At present...

My favourite spin on the Chosen One cliche is R Scott Bakker's Prince of Nothing series. Essentially the chosen one is just faking it and manipulating propechy for his own motives, but by the end is starting to believe his own BS. Some spins on the normal fantasy tropes I tried in a homebrew...

AB, I understand your frustration. This is one of the reasons our gaming group tends to go back to Rolemaster after a period of D&D (until the complexity of Rolemaster drives one of our players crazy and we eventually return to D&D!). However, a very good solution to this situation exists in...

I play that once an opponent is flanked, additional attackers also gain a flanking bonus, regardless of their position. It seems crazy that extra attackers don't benefit from the defender being flanked unless they also happen to be flanking. Another option is to increase the flanking bonus for...

bump Does anyone have a link to the Story Hour?

wow, this is still here....

Please sir, can I have some more?

Yeah, things have been going pretty slowly in the game, I was kinda expecting this. This is the only PbP I'm in these days and will probably bow out of ENworld for a while - I only really got into the PbP thing coz' I wasn't playing any PnP games but now that I am gaming fairly regularly I'm not...

"Agreed", the elf wizard nervously mutters under his breath. He steps back from his companions to give himself a little space an quickly intones a sequence of arcane phrases. A glimmering wall of light takes form in front off him and the elf seems to grow in confidence and stature behind its...

"If we head out of this room and across the original shaft we descended from the sphinx there is still one door we have not explored. Although it points to the opposite direction of where I sensed the magic auras, it is still the closest place to it. I suggest we investigate there first."

An involuntary shiver hits Ehldannis as he peers ahead. "The dead lie ahead, and I have the horrible feeling that they will not be restful. I am beginning to like these catacombs less and less. If not foul necromancy then we will at least have to contend with something that has slain many in the...

"Fascinating, a whole world existing deep underground.... I wonder how it is lit?.... or how many live there?... wondrous, truly wondrous." With a wrench the elf pulls himself away from the view. "Perhaps after we have finished our quest we can find cause to journey below, but for now let us...

"I believe the Sphinx holds our only egress from these tunnels. Let us return what she seeks and see what else we might find..." Ehldannis busies himself packing his spellbook away and readying himself to travel. "I will speak to our new friend and see what he can tell us, but I think getting...

"Be aware that the Hammer and Shield are of no little value. They have been forged from adamantine, a very rare and strong metal. Perhaps Dhormium can say more on where they may have originated, it is almost certain they are of Dwarven origin, as only they know the secrets of its mining and...

Ehldannis quickly mutters the arcane words of a spell and his eyes blaze with green light [cast Detect Magic]. He then methodically looks about the room, cautious to avoid coming too close to any of the skeletons.

"If Ecthgow is going to travel with us once more then perhaps we should cloth and arm him with whatever he can spare. As for his companion, we can do little but clothe him for now. Once we complete our arrangement with the Sphinx perhaps we can return him to his folk. What lies through the door...

Ehldannis exchanges a look with Brioc. Could this truly be the Northman who fought with us against the Wendol so long ago? His bloodlust to destroy them saw him forsake our quest and yet now he returns against all odds.
