    I dunno. But I love that the actor playing Itchy won an Emmy, but not the one playing Scratchy :D

    Stirges are a nightmare!

    A Stirge that succeeds with its attach attack is "now grappling"; does it need to make an immediate hold check as a free action?

    Stirges are a nightmare!

    The creature depends on flight and grapple rules, both of which singly are headaches within themselves. What happens if a stirge flies 15ft at a target and fails to "attach" (special grapple initiation)? Does it plummet to the ground and then take falling damage? If it manages to attach, and...

    Where to find a nerdy girl?

    I actually feel for the OP. I reckon that there's a difference between finding a "nerdy" girl and nerdifying one; the qualities or mindset that the naturally nerdy girl has, that she has something she's deeply interested in for its own sake which is something you (plural) can connect with very...

    Stat template?

    Cheers. For the record, turns out the 3.5 update is in the Player's Guide to Faerun W/E.

    Stat template?

    I've a few ideas I'd like to stat up and post. Is there a default stat template I can steal? Also, has anyone done the Alaghi or beastmen from AD&D for 3.5?

    Handling and Adjucating on the fly

    I like the suggestions, guys; cheers. I've been thinking along the same lines. In retrsopect, Maybe a jump check (DC10+ target's dex). This check is equivalent to a grab check, and is immediately followed by a hold check (the attacker can use an escape artist check instead). Failing has the risk...

    Homebrew monster. Looking for constructive critique

    Of course they are. That's what I get for doing this stuff at 1 in the morning. I think this will work better, yep. I'd initially hoped it would work by expanding the Quasit's progression more or less by the book, by speculating that there are larger ones out there. But the Quasit hogs tiny to...

    Homebrew monster. Looking for constructive critique

    Great work Cleon, that's very helpful. I've had alook through;- it seems most of your observations were correct, and I'veadjusted for them. The saves for the mage were incorrect, I think- giventhat outsiders have all good saves, but there might be something I've overlooked. I've substituted for...

    Handling and Adjucating on the fly

    One of the players in our game, a new player who doesn't know the rules, is always trying out unconventional actions in combat with her Halfling rogue. I'm not the DM in this game, but the DM often looks to me for rules advice. The player in question's actions are informed by visions of...

    The problem is choice

    I suspect it is this point at which a lot of the issues arise. A gamer who considers themselves rules-savvy may accept this for the spirit of the game. Or they may suspect the DM of having favourites. They may feel that on too many occasions the DM has gotten it wrong and that there are no...

    Material allowed ingame by a DM

    In my game, all sources are conditionally allowed so far; there aren't any optimisers in my game and I wouldn't want to restrict the palette for my players coming up with interesting characters they want to play. This might eventually lead to some broken characters (though it hasn't so far, and...

    Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Sherlock Holmes and the profession of rogue.

    sneak attack doesn't fit tho. If you can trade it out for another feature it might work better.
