This question has just come up IMC: A fighter has Improved Unarmed Strike and Two-Weapon Fighting. He wields a greataxe. Can he use headbutts/kicks/stomps/etc. as his off-hand attack? If not, can he use it as a secondary natural attack? (like some monsters do who also wield weapons.)...

with 7 PC's I've had a couple of pure roleplaying sessions that have awarded "story" XP. Basically about 150 per character from this. But with 7 PC's I've had to watch XP gain very carefully. The way I've got it plotted out, the PC's will reach 3rd level immediately after So there should be...

getting them together Took a lot of cues from the Diamond Lake backdrop. There are good suggestions in there. I got them all together in a huge bar brawl at the Spinning Giant bar. Many of them were either employed by, or on good terms with, the garrison. On this particular night, Deputy...

My campaign is running into problems with these spells: Blasphemy/Dictum/HolyWord/WordOfChaos. I'm of a mind to fix them IMC, but I was wondering whether there was a body of work already done in this forum or elsewhere that I could mine for ideas. The Problems: 1. It's easier to boost...

new monsters SPOILERS ------- The Savage Tide's "There is No Honor" contains the rhagodessa. The Maure Castle installment introduces a new demon, the "soul demon" which has a glasslike, transparent skull with burning abyss-fire within. They are minions of Orcus.

Excellent! That's exactly what I was looking for. thanks!

If a monstrous humanoid with a CON-based special ability (say, poison) becomes a vampire, does that ability remain CON-based (no modifier) or does it become CHA-based? I am spinning my wheels at finding a specific rule for this, and would appreciate any help in tracking one down. thanks in...

In my monthly campaign, I've given out XP equal to what they would be awarded for an encounter of their level. So that makes journal writing just one more "encounter." that I account for in writing adventures. I modified that somewhat for my new Age-of-Worms campaign. Since we are using...

Hmmm. I've got five. 1.) Green Ronin's Advanced Bestiary: This is a monster book unlike all the others, in that it only provides templates to apply to other creatures. There is infinite variety here, and the quality of the templates is generally top-notch. 2.) Book of Eldritch Might: as the...

Going to agree with this. My PC's (6 of them) are in their third session of the W.C. dungeon and the only reason they are still alive is because of our use of "action points". Using action points has saved the lives of nearly every player. This module is awesome, but hard-core.

As a general rule I only start including save-or-die effects when the PC's have a means of coping with them. I think in most cases this means between 7th and 10th level. - deadly poison? If used at lower levels I drop hints that there are poisonous plants/critters around in the hopes that a...

LOL. If not for the great DB crash of '06 I might have been up to, oh... 15 or so!!! But this is a fine thread to born-again post in. Thanks!

I have to vote NO on this one, despite it being the most memorable adventure of my 5+ year campaign. do I need spoilers? do these threads assume we'll talk about the module's content? - The dungeon itself is linear in the worst way. There is pretty much one path down which takes you...
