Hey Morrus Two more questions from me, I hope I'm not revealing my stupidity here... :confused: 1. You state Does this apply to the grappler who has applied the hold (as well as the victim of the hold)? 2. In a Bull Rush situation, you say moving into the defender’s space Do you mean...

Thanks Morrus--loving it...

Righty. So, the only benefit now of using a weapon to trip/throw is that you do not provoke an AoO, is that correct? Which, I must say, seems benefit enough to me to still make it worthwhile.

Hi Morrus Thank you so much for this! No matter how many times I have to adjudicate grappling, I can never remember how the rules work... and now I can! Some questions: 1. In movies and the like, two dudes are grappling with one another, right? Let's call then The Goon and Steve Austin...

I would kiss you M, except (i) we're on different continents; (ii) it would revive the "sex and D&D" arguments; and (ii) it would be inappropriate. The sentiment, however, remains. Thank you. Plus I now feel virtuous for thanking--which means I can skip the gym!

It depends on our Rat Bastard Friend DM's gameworld, but arguably it is not a case of deceiving a god, as much as deceiving the caster. Clerical spells do not necessarily and always come direct from the god, and even if they do, the cleric is a mere mortal, a weak and foolish shell barely...

Nah, you go for it. Magic potentially gives an easy way out, and who wants that? It's always struck me that while magic can be used to facilitate the examination of justice, it can also be used to conceal the truth. For example, if the character relaying testimony in a zone of truth has been...

Third in the series Apologies if this is a little off-topic, but I wonder if there are any plans to release the module which was to my knowledge never released in print, the third of the series that included 'The Lost Outpost' and 'Race to the Yellow Lotus'? I hope I've remembered the titles...

No thank you. It was all very interesting.

How it all went down Well, thanks to all--and especially the Shaman--for your help. Firstly, desipte my description of how the fireball had a 20 foot spread, and that that entire area was beginning to catch fire, the party tried to put the fire out. First, a fog cloud--bzzzt frick! Second, a...

I think what I will do is give the druid a an easy Knowledge (Nature) check to determine that this is Very Bad. Then, I'll have it take a few rounds for the fire to get underway, so they can formulate a plan (as if), or attempt to douse the flames (the current suggestion is, er, fog cloud)...

Elementals That's cool. I'm using Eberron, and the same idea would work--intense forest fires creating temporary manifest zones to Fernia. Sweet...

Whenever I need a gnomish, root-tossing forest expert, I'm coming to you!

Shaman, this is gold, I love it how people know such crazy stuff! You rock. I think I'll vary the rate to keep them guessing. Start it slower to give them a chance to take action to douse it (as if--the only idea they've had so far is a fog cloud spell), and then pick the pace up after a few...

Heh, cool. The forest the party are in has been seriously de-populated, for scenario and atmosphere reasons, but one or two seriously tough and general loner-like beasties running like the clappers would be entertaining. Thanks.

Thanks. The SRD says it travels at wind speed, 120 feet per round in a moderate wind. Your rates are much kinder to poor PCs... That's funny...

Trancej: I defer to your trancey wisdom my friend... Yeah but it's MAGICAL FIRE man. It's got much more guts than a firework! From the SRD: It melts metals! Shaman: the ground is flat; the climate is temperate; there is a light breeze; the forest isn't managed; the last fire was ages ago...

C'mon... Lazy sod. http://www.systemreferencedocuments.org/35/sovelior_sage/home.html Ah, but so does S&S, my hairy friend http://www.systemreferencedocuments.org/35/sovelior_sage/unearthedArcana.html And as for d20srd.org, this is my favourite bit...

Well, actually, a forest fire, not a nightclub fire, but it still makes me say "Burn baby burn!". Okay so it's early summer, the party are in a dense, deciduous temperate forest. The party really wizard really wants to get that incorporeal dude, so blasts off his fireball. So now I have fire...

Same deal for Sovelier and Sage--I have the html files in a single folder on my laptop, it's juicy.
