    A Midsummer Abduction (D&D 3.5, Homebrew)

    Pranks Become Serious (continued) Sorry about the delay in updating, I've had trouble logging into ENworld lately. Gwella and Andoran were pleased to hear that their fruit had not been stolen away, but found it had to understand exactly what had happened. If it had not been for the trust they...

    Help with some character ideas...

    Me either. To the same degree as wizards do, yes. You use the same preperation method and casting method as your original class when you take up a prestige class like that. However there is some debate over whether you get those free 2 spells per level in your spellbook, as that is a wizard...

    Dramatis Personae for A Midsummer Abduction (D&D 3.5)

    The monsters I 'cheated' for. These are just the plain normal creature out of whatever MM they're featured in. No advancement, no fancy templates, no class levels... just whatever the book has. Session 1. (The Pranks get Serious) Grickshaw - Standard Grig from the MM1 page 235. Sveoshala Dir...

    Dramatis Personae for A Midsummer Abduction (D&D 3.5)

    The Black Prince Although the story hour is not yet up to the point where he's been mentioned, the malevolent force behind all of this appears to be a figure called 'The Black Prince'. It'll probably be a long time before he appears on stage, but for the mean time here are his stats...

    Help with balancing a PC, or How To Nerf A Minotaur?

    I'm guessing you forgot to apply a level adjustment. I.E. he's a level 6 minotaur fighter hanging out with level 6 human characters. So maybe offer the other players templates that they can get for free which would be the same Level Adjustment as the minotaur should have been. Then over the...

    Tweaking spellcasters - feedback please

    That's a lot of dice rolling in the early morning "accountant" phase of the game.

    Arcane Thesis - Too Powerful or Balanced?

    I'd say yes, it's still balanced for precisely that reason. What's more I love the flavor of that feat.

    3rd edition mages

    As Stream has already said, no. But, if you're interested in increasing what your mage can do in one round there are ways. Some spells are swift or immediate actions. You can also cast a spell like Flaming Sphere which can be directed with a move action. This gives you an 'Attack' from the...

    What's the logic behind Sudden metamagic prereqs?

    That's a good idea. I like the luck feats, though I've never had an opportunity to use them.

    A Midsummer Abduction (D&D 3.5, Homebrew)

    Pranks Become Serious (Continued) Sienna and Arelon left Grickshaw behind and returned to the village, stopping past the home of Gwella and Andoran to check on the couple and their new baby. Andoran was outside, splitting firewood with his axe. He seemed distracted, unleashing anger at the...

    Stalker0's Guide to Anti-Grind

    I don't play 4th edition, but I'm bookmarking this in case I ever do and to recommend to friends. That is some very thorough advice and from what little I know of 4th edition it looks very solid and accurate. Thankyou for this great resource.

    A Midsummer Abduction (D&D 3.5, Homebrew)

    Pranks Become Serious (Continued) After a fairly pleasant, if awkward, lunch Sienna and Arelon made their way down to the riverbank to seek out the small fey that had been described to them. As they stood on the river bank a deep booming voice sounded from behind them. "Who are you?! What do...

    A Midsummer Abduction (D&D 3.5, Homebrew)

    Pranks Become Serious (continued). When they reached the river back, Sienna was not surprised to see her carefully picked mushrooms gone. She couldn't blame kids for being kids, so she just started again from scratch with the few mushrooms that remained. Arelon joined her as she pointed out the...

    Help I introduced a too powerful NPC

    Thankyou everyone for your advice. The session has just finished. I combined a few ideas from this thread and ended up with a fairly effective solution. The best part was that it didn't use anything that hadn't already been established and I didn't need to fudge anything. I had already...

    Help I introduced a too powerful NPC

    It would be amusing if he retired from adventuring on doctor's advice. All of this excitement, leads to him gasping and clutching for the pills the alchemist has given him to treat his faulty ticker. Knowing the group of players, they'd probably try to encourage him to go home and take care of...

    I've been planning on running a game in the future, last night my friends were around and we were working out characters. We decided to start playing straight away, because people were eager to get into the action. The players are level 1. They've discovered that faeries have been stealing the...
