I'm with Pendragon. Since moving with a Fly spell requires as much concentration as walking, and since having the spell's duration run out or the spell being dispelled causes the subject to float to the ground, I'd rule that, they descend slowly to the ground when knocked unconcious.

I've always wanted to do something similar to this for a campaign starter. Tell everyone that you want them to roll up appropriate 15th level or higher characters. Start the first session with the party entering the BBEG's Lair... they know they have to stop him, or the world will die (or...

I'm planning to have my next campaign start with a pair of wizardly brothers send the PCs back and forth on missions, delivering 'packages'. ALong the way, they'll run into all sorts of interesting encounters, and, since they distance between the brothers is great and under no serious time...

It would be nice if they took into account those of us that do mods to minis to change their poses.. i.e. either a)supply the arms, legs and heads detached, so we can attach them at varying angles, b) supply a couple differnt arms and heads etc so we can attach the ones we want, or c) krealize...

A couple pages on different types of law enforcement, something other than fantasized versions of Modern Police would be cool. Any book on thieves should include information on thief takers and bounty hunters. Not necessarily PrCs, but who they are and what they do and how they do it. Also...

That looks awesome, but it also look slike more time than I have to devote. One of the best tools ever was the Poor Wizard's Almanac for OD&D. The Year in Preview was rockin'... an entire year chock full of regional, local and national events, all sorted by date for you. My old DM would...

Also, for those of that like to paint our minis ourselves, try to use a plastic that won't melt in pine-oil or brake fluid =) There are plenty of them out there, and I often do this with inherited Games Workshop minis... its strips the paint nicely, without losing detail.

Plastic minis with a space in the base to glue a nickle or similar coin/washer for additional base weighting. That'd be my wish... I have a ton of plastic minis and they all like to topple when the table gets bumped... so I glued nickles to their bottoms. Now they stay stable, but they...

The wizard should contruct Golems and such for protection of 'special' areas... What sort of familiar does the wizard have? Hopefully its something like a raven, cuz then he could have an aerie of ravens in his tower, under the control of his familiar... they can act as unpaid and totally...

My understanding is that, at least when we're talking PC structures, a Wizard's Tower is just a name designating a Wizard's Keep or Castle... it is a fortified, highly functional structure designed to suit the needs of a wizard, rather than the needs of a highlevel cleric or warlord, or the...

Ok, he's gonna build a 'tower', so here's what I think: Food: Bulk Storage Kitchen Dining Rooms private formal banquet hall Water: Wellhead Wine Cellar Ale and WAter Storage Fountains(?) Shelter: Personal Quarters bedroom sitting room closets Wine Cellar Guest Quarters similar to...

Are you Full? I'd like to call Dibs on any PC slot that may be open. I've been playing D&D since 1984, starting with Red Book Erol Otis D&D, and moving through all subsequent editions. I'd be willing to play any class that seems to be missing from the mix. Thanks.

I'm following this thread with interest. I must say your last post was ... um... too long to absorb at once =) I'll be subscribing to this thread and replying when I get a better handle on what's already here.

Maybe the masterwork versions of the potions should use metamagic feats as baselines for the effects you can apply. For example, you are using alchemy to add the effects of Empower to your potion (rather than using the feat itself.. maybe because you don't have it). The DC of doing so might be...

Assume that Alchemy were synergistic with Brew Potion... What would that mean? Many feats give a skill bonus of +2 to two related skills, or a +3/+4 to a single skill. Are you suggesting taking Brew Potion should have that effect on Alchemy? Cuz I can't imagine what effects Alchemy can...

Have you, by chance, read Between the Rivers by Harry Turtledove? The amazon.com blurb is: "When the gods declare war against the city of Gibil, Sharur the merchant's son takes upon himself the task of discovering the reason for their anger. Bolstered by his belief in the ability of mortals to...

Why make them indestructable? Very sturdy ceramics are possible... but let them break when they break. They then lose their value. What's the problem?

Just found this thread. Very interesting, and engaging. I've subscribed!

What does that mean: mirv? "multiple independent rocket vehicle'? How does that apply here?

See Hollowfaust: City of Necromancers by Sword and Sorcery Studio for an excellent exmaple of a place that is both of these... The city has regular patrols and working parties of the undead, the corpses for which come from the city's citizens who are unable or unwilling to pay a small 'death...
