Yes, this. IMO, This is the single worst thing about games Pathfinder/3.5 and other popular games. I remember back in 3.5 a game broke down into arguing when one player wanted to charge, and as part of that charge, jump as per the jump rules. I allowed it, and then another player started to...

I did some research on this while I was writing this, and after reading Paizo's board, the rules for flight and swimming, and reading the 3.5 legacy rules, I found nothing that said that they did not provoke AoE. So, by RAW, they do provoke AoE. Now, I do have a caveat here, though. The Fly-by...

I appreciate the support Wiseblood! I would like to continue playing with Scribus and put my efforts somewhere I can catalog them. I don't suppose there is a lot of interest in these things, but it would be nice to have a collection.

I have had some down time recently, so I decided to start a project. Sadly, that project came just as my renewal for my adobe creative suite came up. I decided I would start an open source project. I have started to teach myself Scribus. I pulled together come OGL content, open source images...

Inside the case are three valuable books. “The Sonnet of Long Lies”, anonymous, worth 550 GP This book is an original work written by hand in the common language. The author did not sign his name, but it seems to be written in a classical style. The book is a poem about a traveler walking alone...

Everyone involved is looking at each other, aware of their presence? No surprise round. Giving your players the surprise round should be a reward for planning ahead, not being trigger-happy.

Dungeon Master Suite Heroes Needed.xlsx - 4shared.com - online file sharing and storage - download That's the link. It's got some of my campaign's notes still in it to illustrate what I use it for. Feel free to use it. The spreadsheet, not the notes. The notes are mine.

Would anyone be interested in this combat manager and initiative tracker for use with the Microsoft Excel? DMSuite.png picture by lulzapalooza - Photobucket It sorts character initiative, has a round and turn matrix, and keeps track of HP and status effects admirably. It's not perfect for...

Her name is Susan Willard. She is on the Google Sketchup developer team. That's her on the right. Do not stalk her.

In my opinion it is simply a matter of varying the roles of the roster of NPCs. Originally, I had him as the role of "magic-item-provender" but now he is the "self-serving coward who abandoned his village to die under the heel of a demon while a group of would-be-heroes he had been condescending...

You have an pretty good understanding of what is required. CR is the Challenge Rating of a monster, scaled for a party of 4-5 characters. So, a CR 3 monster should be a challenge appropriate for 4 3rd level characters. An appropriate challenge should be enough to take 20% of the party's...

It illustrates the fact that even though your character may occupy a 5-foot square on the board, that it is merely an abstraction to represent the red zone, or "reach of your blade", and that 5-feet is much larger than then space your character actually fills. The incremental increases is to...

This is all the time I have the time to upload. The other four when I can find a better connection.

I want him to be a bad guy, or at least a foil, for the time being, because I have already inverted expectations once recently. The party unanimously believes he's selfish and cowardly. I do not want the party to -always- be wrong. That being said, redemption could be a powerful motive for him...

As for lingering effects; two PCs got bit by Chernabue, which makes them take 1 point of con damage and gives them orange boils on their skin, filled with an awful liquid. A quick heal check told them that when the boils burst in a few days, they will fall unconscious and experience...

By the way, the monster in question is not actually a demon according to the fluff presented in the monster's description, and it is actually "a" Chernabue, not "The" Chernabue, but simply repurposed it to fit the need of my campaign.

I did the fight, and it went great! I started the game with a handful of scenarios in the village. Our wizard spoke to the NPC wizard in the village, and was given an impromptu pop-quiz on magic. Our war-scarred veteran compared war wounds with a retired military grunt in the village. Our elf...

Right click > Save Image Is the quality too low? I have trouble uploading images on my home connection. I will upload a link to this and all my other infographs on monday, when I will have my office bandwidth to consume. I will be sure to include a higher resolution version.

I think this is a good idea, and it looks ready to print. Do you mind if I expand on it a little and re-post a version for a game with different character generation rules?

I have a hole lot of these reference pictures in the same style. Range diagram, grapple flow-chart, area of effect templates, line of sight examples. I have not considered that people might want them for their own use. I can post the rest if there's any interest.
