Interesting concept. But casting a shield spell from a scroll? Don't forget the duration of Shield is very short, to say the least. Although if it's the last spell you cast it''s up for 10 rounds, that's usually plenty of time for one combat. True Strike is a one shot deal, I'd save it for...

So? That's tough luck. Than he shouldn't have gone to wherever that monster was. If they can't handle a monster they should run away. Same thing as a 1st level character walking into a Old Wyrm's lair. Gee, tough luck, again. That's a shame. Guess they should just run into the town and buy...

I don't want to turn this thread into a discussion about (the lack of) balance in D&D. But as far as I'm concerned the argument is not valid. All classes get magic items and they all get better at what they do. Rings of Intelligence, etc. are more dangerous than any cape of flying or whatever...

Not at all, I want to see smackdowns for all classes. ;-) How did you infer that I only wanted spallcaster smackdowns?? My only request is that the smackdowns are self-contained and not dependant on magic items or spells cast by someone else than the smackdown character. I want to see...

DOH! See, that's what happens when there's no search function on a messageboard! (I know about the supporter perks, no need to tell me.) Ah well.

No, magic users can use their spells, that's all they live for. ;-) Non-spellcasters asking their friends to cast spells on them are frowned upon however. ;-)

Sultans of a lesser Smack See Sultans of a lesser Smack for a new challenge.

Ok, so we've all seen the Sultans of Smack but how about a new challenge. Show me a smackworthy character of no more than level 10, without any magic items. Only WotC books allowed (I know they aren't all that balanced, but including Relics and Rituals and friends just makes the smacks silly)...

After a very long hiatus the website has been updated again.

Re: Re: (DC 10 + one-half caster level + caster's Wisdom modifier) Yeah, eh, that is, erm... I did a pretty thorough search (all WotC spells except for those in MoF as I don't have those as searchable text) and what have I found... Em... only Kiss of Death (MotW, page 89) has the same...

As I stated above, I interpret it that way, but the majority of player's / dm's out there do not. It's good to see that in this day and age the minority is right once again. ;-)

Quite a number of spells (Poison for example) use the following text when describing the saving throw: (DC 10 + one-half caster level + caster's Wisdom modifier) I can only interpret this to mean that the DC gets better as the caster gets more levels. Example: 8th level Druid (wis 18) vs 18th...

Between sessions 10 and 11. Finn says: I'll write a letter to my family to see if they can inform the families of Borric and Varsk about the sad events. Calim's parents live nearby however and the Tallendars live in Sembia. I think we should reconsider the course we have been heading on. The...

Re: Holy no-brainer! Celedor escaped. We have had a short character to character discusion via e-mail about what we are to do. I'll post it after tonight. We were, according to the DM he guessed beforehand we had a 15% chance to win that encounter. Me and the DM were wracking our brains...

This particular mindflayer must have had enormous psionic powers, he seems to have influenced the players! I still can't divine what brought three of my fellow players to commit suicide this way. Borric's death was unavoidable I guess, but why the other three charged the mindflayer mystifies...

Session 10 – Wednesday, February 20, 2002. 11 Tarsakh We left for Dagger Falls today. 24 Tarsakh Late in the afternoon we arrived at a junction of the Northride. Straight North runs the Tethyamar Trail, a much less well kept trail but it wel lead us directly to Daggerdale. At the junction is...

I've updated the session 9 post to rectify the oversight. Below I've posted the journal for session 10. See how quickly the fecal matter can hit the rotary cooling device. For those who voted in the who will be killed first poll. You were all wrong, but not by much. Read below for the...

Thanks for pointing out that oversight to me. I was stupid enough to forget to mention that we offered the family to help them and go to Westgate for them. They refused and said they had things under control. (Although I wouldn't want the bumblers who were captured along with my offspring to...

Gee, it's impossible these days to stay on page 1 of the board. I'll try to get the other players and the DM to post some stuff here (not bloody likely ;-) Some reader feedback might help too. Come on you lurkers, I know you are out there, tell me what bugs you most about Finn (you've got...

Session 9 – Wednesday, February 6, 2002. 17 Ches The day started with a silly discussion about whether Darvear was part of the slaver ring and this was all just an elaborate plot to capture us. This suspicion was fed by the fact that Darvear never hit an opponent during our fight in the...
