    But if I can still only print one monster to an uneditable PDF format, it still remains completely useless to me!

    Boss Monster

    I like, that's just the kind of rat bastardly thing I'd do. :) I removed redirect from the assasin and replaced it with human shield and I removed hamstring from the Lycanthrope assasin and replaced it with Rampant Toss. I moved Howl of Terror to a minor action and gave it recharge 6 and gave...

    Boss Monster

    Thanks Jester. Yes I reformated and cleaned it up a little. What if I change Howl to a minor action rather than add damage? What about phase II? I think I made it too similar to phase 1, I should probably mix it up a little bit. I was thinking about changing Redirect to something where he...

    Rewarding Roleplaying

    I've found that roleplaying is it's own reward. However, since I'm playing a game with friends scattered across 3 time zones and two countries using maptool, usually when we actually game we get a lot of that pesky combat out of the way, in between sessions I started up a series of "In...

    Boss Monster

    That's a great question to which I don't have a good answer too yet!

    Boss Monster

    Stupid Monster builder thinks it's so cool! The triggers were there I swear! I'll fix that. I'm not too concerned about Poison Resist, I kind of envisioned him as highly mobile and applying poison damage to everyone. I figured phase one, was the end of him using weapons hence the tossing of the...

    Boss Monster

    Okay so this weekend my players will be attempting to thrwart an assasination at a very ritzy party in Sharn. I know that this will be the only encounter of the day and I wanted it to be memorable. In addition to hob nobing with nobles (and knowing my players pissing them off) I decided that I...

    Help me design a few memorable encounters for 4th level.

    Terrain, Terrain, Terrain. The most memorable encounters I have run have involved an interesting battlefield. Either something the players and creatures can take advantage of or something they have to watch out for, or both. I run an eberron campaign so some of my memorable encounters have...

    Help with my Eberron game

    I should have put a note in that I'm aware that it doesn't quite follow cannon. :)

    Help with my Eberron game

    So I've been running an eberron campaign for a while and I just posted the following cut scene for the players. Cut Scene 11 Graelen tosses and turns throughout the night as his mind is filled with dreams of the past...

    Introducing Eberron to Newcomers

    This was how I introduced eberron to my players: <Screen fades to black> <A deep booming voice echoes> Eberron <images begin to slowly appear on the screen> Peasants work the fields in a small farming community. A grand ballroom filled with well dressed nobles dancing to a light tune. A...

    Skill Challenges that KILL

    Prior to 4E coming out I wrote up an example skill challenge on how I viewed they would work. The challenge was disarming a lethal trap. I wish I could find the original thread (can't search). But I don't see a problem with having a lethal skill challenge. There are times in a game where a...

    magic missile always hits again???

    Okay stupid question time. If someone has a power that add's extra damage to force effects. Such as a superior implement. Does this extra damage not get added to this power because it has no damage roll?

    Starting without equipment

    Doesn't anyone care about the story anymore? I mean the characters are prisoners, they don't have stuff. Oh no, the wizard and monk are at an advantage whatever shall the players do? Sit there and whine? Or try and find a way out of the situation there in? As I said before it's only a...

    Starting without equipment

    Whether one class is at an advantage or disadvantage is largely irrelevant. Even if the characters start out with nothing, it won't last very long as they'll start arming themselves as they try to escape their prison. It's just another challenge that the players will have to face and in the end...

    Help me design a "Last Airbender" critter

    Okay here is the setup: Cut Scene 9 A very large badger like creature, whose eyeless face is dominated by a large snout that ends at a collection of small tentacles, sprints quickly along a cobblestone path. Riding upon the creatures back, is a man dressed all in black, including a black cowl...

    Redone Black Dragon from GenCon

    Well I leveled up this dragon and used it against my 6th level party. It was their 3rd encounter in the day. They had used a few daily's previously. The combat lasted only 2 rounds. The group managed to pump out enough damage to kill the dragon and not a single one of them was knocked...

    Seekers of the Ashen Crown

    Three sessions of a little pargon dream sequence complete. I'll be back to actually finishing up this module. I'm on the tail end now. They'll be off to graywall next!

    Paragon Advice

    Okay I thought I'd give a quick update here, and share my thoughts on my first running of a paragon game. Earlier I posted the setup for the game, the characters will be taking part in a dream sequence of a past life of my Deva player. They will all remember who they are but will be trapped in...
