As a DM, I had a perused vampire spider climb onto a vaulted ceiling and when my player came in, I gave him a spot check verses the vampire’s hide check. When he failed, I dropped the vamp on him as a surprise round. My player disagreed with my decision because the room was well lit (true) and...

My group has only banned on spell from the PHB 3.5. Detect Thoughts. Only those that have it naturally are allowed to have it. Dopplegangers for example. As a side note, we've also modified the Feat Toughness to be more useful, and we've changed the skill Concentration from constitution based...

bobacus! Nym looks great! You did a great job putting personality into the sketch. We might like to commision you for a group drawing (ink only) for six characters. Would you be willing to do a campfire scene with perspective? I understand the time required increases, but I believe we would be...

Character Description ---------- Nym is an adolescent moon elf; acrobat and contortionist by trade, ADVENTURER EXTRORDANARE BY NIGHT! Fine, slender, and beautiful; Nym is a ladies-man – or boy – or well, he thinks he is. He’s a dilettante and couldn’t be happier about it. His large...

As a DM, I think you did the right thing. Very good. Now, just as a side note (perhaps to your player), I too play a low-strength rogue. My strength is 6 (-2) and I most likely are wearing Gauntlets of Orge Power giving me a 8 (-1) and a light-load limit of 25. Part of the enjoyment for me is...

I was talking to Arravis, a primary member of our D&D group, about the idea of becoming a business for the intended purpose of getting gaming material cheap. We are starting a website soon for our gaming community and it got me thinking of having an internet business. The problem is that I don't...

I am looking for D&D checks. Like, real bank checks. Anyone have a link? Patrick

Nydia the female sorcerer was being influenced by some red coin of an evil nature. During the in-party conflict, she held her hand out and looked at the coin in her palm, "How did this get here?" Next initiative, Nym, my STR 6, DEX 20 elven child rogue swings his hand up in an attempt to slap...

Malcolm, Do you still have those pictures from the slide show? If so, I would love to get them from you if that is possible. pawned79@knology.net Zip file would be awesome, Patrick

Does anyone have any real life experience dealing with large scale disasters, like tornado’s and the like? We are playing an FR game that is currently based in Phlan. As you know, Phlan is infamous for its ability to sustain disaster after disaster. One of the most well known plagues of Phlan is...

What magazine number is it? I'll see if I can order it from Dragon's website. Patrick

Anyone have the Moon Elves book by Dark Quest Games? Is it any good? I am playing a prepubescent moon elf in our FR game. I was wondering if it discussed the subject of elven puberty. Patrick

Honestly, I was pretty bored with it until the Alien got him. It was good for independent, but it was kinda -- well -- what everyone has seen before. I mean, it was nothing new. -- Then the Alien grabbed his ass, and I was SUPER impressed. From then on, I was stuck to it, thinking, "Man, these...

I think fanboyish was the point. A bunch of independent guys get together with nearly nothing for budget, and their childhood thoughts of, "what if," and they make this little film? I think its wonderful. Thumbs up to the makers! Patrick

I think the answer lies in the knowledge she has of who those people were, where they are, and what their intentions are. To endlessly track evil to destroy it, you may overlook a lot of suffering that is at hand; suffering you know you can stop. But if you know that the danger is extremely...

I had a Synnabar (spelling?) character named: Kashmir. I don't remember his last name, but it didn't make it better. My first character was in AD&D was Nicodemus, which was my Catholic confirmation name. My EQ character's name was Damiani (which is MY last name), and the last name was...

There is a half sea elf in his troop that named him Nym. His stage name is "The Snake." They found him at a Shieldmeet (leap day) celebration as an infant. They don't know how old he is or why he was left. They raised him. The troop is mostly non-elves, and thus he's actually been around after...

Tomorrow we are starting a Forgotten Realms game. I am going to be playing a prepubescent male elven acrobat/contortionist from a circus troop. He is approximately sixty six years old, which I believe is a reasonable age for a prepubescent elf. I was wondering if there was information out there...

I am going to be playing an acrobatic character in our upcoming Forgotten Realms game, and my DM, a regular poster here, told me to ask the boards for help formulating standard DCs for some actions. If you have a reference to this subject, please let me know. Here are some examples of acrobatic...

This post if for Zogg again, Hey Zogg, I'm glad you think my character would translate okay into D&D, because he is my 3rd edition D&D character. In fact, my friend (Arravis) is setting up the kitchen table right now to play the Endless Desert game while I type this. Let me be a little bit...
