I have never used Inevitables. I would like to, but I have a difficult time coming up with a reason for them to be around since my players have never gone to Mechanus. I have also never used Djinn. I get too stuck on Aladdin and just find the whole genie thing to be lame. Sphinxes. They are...

I certainly hope not. That Dandu is always good for a chuckle. On a side note, I was disappointed to see that this thread was not about Yu-Gi-Oh.

Pming, you are absolutely right. If you're significant other is going to be a hag about spending time with your buddies, they can go fly a kite. It's important to spend time with your friends. On topic, or kind of on topic, I have the exact opposite problem with my group. I am the one with a...

The variant rule for insta-kills is in the PHB. I forget exactly where it is, but it's in a sidebar. It says if you roll a 20 and then roll a 20 to confirm the critical hit, you can roll again and if you confirm the roll again, you insta-kill. I did that to an adult black dragon with my...

That's an epic picture, Dandu! You ever see the LEGO YouTube video mocking that Metal Gear ridiculousness?

Agreed. Spoken like a true DM. Set them all on fire and then find a giant cat to come along and use the remains as a litter box.

Thanks for the responses, guys. It definitely sounds like I need to make this happen. I'm sorry if it sounded like I was completely opposed to anything but 3.5. I would love to try new things, but I wasn't sure how sessions at conventions worked with regards to a complete noob trying out...

I have always wanted to go to a convention but have never been able to (dang wife and kids). I only play D&D 3.5 and I don't particularly care for 4e. I just don't have the time to even really try anything else. Would a convention even be worth going to? What kinds of things would there be...

The Shackled City Adventure Path was very awesome. My group had a great time with it. I would also recommend Enworld's War of the Burning Sky. Super awesome! Please don't recommend that people download stuff illegally. - Rel

I would not kill the vampire. I definitely would be extremely cautious around her, but I would not kill her. Though in my group, it would be a moot point. I happen to love the Twilight novels and my group mocks me mercilessly for it. They would without question kill the vampire and then...

1. Often in published adventures, traps have a CR and award experience. I usually award XP to the entire group for traps. Your rogue would gain a ton of XP from traps if you didn't split it up. And I don't know what the technical rule is, but I only award XP for traps that are disabled. If...

Double check the DMG. I'm pretty sure the rules are in there.

It's nice to see that I'm not the only DM that runs into these kind if annoying things. What really irks me about stuff like this is that it really makes me feel underappreciated as the DM. I run our group's games because I'm the only organized enough and has a long enough attention span to...

Thanks for the advice on materials, guys. I've definitely looked into them. The only problem is that they have pushed the price of the item over 2 million gold and probably closer to 2.5 million gold. Gief! That means it will take like 7 years and 100,000 xp to create. Oi! I'll be level 10...

Done!

Hey, guys! This question will make the most sense if you have read the Hunger Games trilogy by Suzanne Collins. For those of you who have, I could use some suggestions. I am thinking about recreating the arena from the 2nd book and putting my adventurers into it. I think this would be a fun...

What does it matter? If it bugs you, don't reply to the thread. Plenty of people don't mind answering a question again.

Sometimes a little railroading is necessary. It doesn't really sound as if your players are taking advantage of your open world. If they aren't saying what they are wanting to do, you have no choice. I also agree with the other guys that published adventures are the way to go. Writing an...

I'm looking to add a few fighter type cohorts because there are only three in the party and no one likes playing tank type characters. The apprentice idea looks like it could be promising. Thanks for the tip.

Does anyone know of any hard and fast rules for cohorts in 3.5 that are similar to those in 4e? I'm aware of the leadership feat and the cohort mechanics. I'm really looking for something simple to to add some numbers to my player's group. Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.
