When we play, it's on my wife's day off. It has to line up with my best friend not having any photo shoots. It also has to line up with the best friend's kid (he's 14, and we're teaching him D&D with this game) not being in school that day or the next. When those magical days do line up, we...

Sorry it took me so long to reply. It's been an icy wonderland of hell here. It went AMAZING. I went with your idea about the poison. It was lowering the wisdom scores of the townsfolk. Most folks just kinda became sheep, willing to listen to those in authority without much question...

Likewise if you get to use anything like that in your games. We're playing this weekend, so we'll see how it goes.

That's amazing. I like a lot of that, and I think I'll put it to use. Especially the poison being used to dull the senses and do Wis damage. It seems a lot more threatening than just a potion that turns people into slaves. You can be snapped out of a mind control effect like that. Not so...

I should note, first off, that I'm playing post-Spellplague with 3.5 rules. The two NPCs are Mini Big Bads. The organization they're working with is trying to reclaim the Crown of Horns and resurrect the dead deity Myrkul, which also requires capturing and killing two of the PCs in a sacrifice...

I'm looking to build an encounter in a tower in the city of Hillsfar (Forgotten Realms), but I'd also like a little advice as to how to get there. The PCs are chasing down the heads of an organization that's hunting two of them, who are to be sacrificed for an evil ritual if captured. In a...

I'm looking for a roll20 game to join, and was wondering where I should post to do so? Gamers Seeking Gamers was my first thought, naturally, but it's filled with real life games and nay a single skype/r20. I imagined such an option for gaming would be used by more people here. I didn't want...

Apologies if I wasn't clear, but it is an FR game. I'm using the 4e, post-spellplague, but with 3.5 rules. All of the additions were just systems I want to try out. As for the "island kingdom of Superfluous Apostrophe", I needed a small, Human Kingdom that didn't have a history before, or...

Summary: My best friend's kid wants to learn to play (most of the things listed here, he probably won't care much about/notice at first, and that's cool). I'm going to DM over Skype/Roll20. We're playing in 4e Forgotten Realms, with 3.5 rules. This is a level 6+ game. Just looking for...

Any reason it's regarded as so unpopular? I'm just getting into post 4e Faerun and this makes me a little curious, as the Realms have always been one of my favorite settings.

My friends and I would like to play in an updated Forgotten Realms with the 3.5 rules. Are there any rules out there for playing a Spellscarred character in 3.5?

Alright, to sum up, I'm helping my Wife build a 3.5 Elven Cleric of Selune. We will be level 4. She can choose from the following rolls (arrange anywhere): Set 1: 18 - 14 - 9 - 17 - 14 - 12 Set 2: 12 - 15 - 9 - 14 - 16 - 17 I don't have the most experience with clerics, and certainly not...

The Warden can't have a posse. As cool as I think it would be to give him one, I also think it would throw off his whole "Only myself and my faithful standing against the tide of Darkness." theme. I know it's cliche', but I love that underdog thing. Thanks. To be honest, the first time I...

I've done a little revising and decided to make it a little more simplistic. Before reading, I'd like to go ahead and answer some "Frequently Asked Questions" that I've gotten from here and from friends that have seen this. I went back to 3.5 alignment, since basically everything else is 3.5...

First off, Tovec, I'd like to say thank you for taking the time to give me such a detailed reply. I do appreciate the criticisms. I think I've addressed some of your concerns (at least in explaining my reasonings) with a previous reply here. Though I've not finalized anything just yet and am...

Perhaps I should have been a little more clear. 4E isn't my favorite edition, but I really do appreciate their alignment system. I like the simplicity of it compared to the earlier versions. The Six spirits are an embodiment of their essence, rather than specific powers. A Shaman-type...

Yeah, that's the name. Apologies for that. I've been away for quite some time, and was unsure what Legacy viewing mode was. Switched to it to see for myself. Hope that fixes it. Thanks for the compliment. :) (edit: also seemed to have forgotten to save my edits properly ha.)

Greetings! I'm in the very early stages of a Homebrew campaign creation. I like to take the "Top-Down" approach, and I began with the Pantheon. I wanted to steer clear of "Good Gods vs. Evil Gods with Neutral Gods in the middle". Instead, I began drifting toward an "Control vs. Passion" or...

I love well-played evil characters. The thief that killed and stole so that his younger brother could be brought up in the church and have a future as a paladin (what a show-down!). The Father who's child was killed, so he takes extreme measures to get revenge. The evil maiden who falls...

I always found this to be pretty easy to deal with. Rather than worry what kind of priest would be good for a small town and what domains he should have to fit the area.. I prefer to put whatever sort of Clergy there that fits my story, moreso than the area and people. Why? Well, say a Priest...
