    Magic: rare and mysterious - is there a game?

    If your looking for a setting thta had magic be rare and mysterious (or maybe I should say creapy and mindblowing) see JoshDyal's Dark*Heritage setting. I'm sure culled from the extensive list he cited eariler, but it accomplishes the task. Caveat: 1) I play in that setting, and 2) mysterious...

    What race is the Wizard in your group? (take II)

    In the last two fantasy campaigns I've been involved with I have played human wizards -- a 2rog/7wiz in Greyhawk and 4wiz in Eberron (but he thinks he's a Dwarf). I have found that despite the favored class and all that for elves, the extra feat and skill points provided by being human are a...

    Feats: Arcane Blade and Area Control

    I currrently play a Wizard specializing in area effect spells, but not afraid of jumping into melee when push comes to shove (despite his 12 AC and -3 melee attack with a martial weapon). I am considering over the next two levels, he wil get two feats. I am considering Arcane Blade from En...

    Player Tryouts

    I was one of those "interviewed" by JD. I think that meeting a potential player, with whm you've had little prior contact, for a meal is a great idea. Having been in group that formed simply through the internet, I would prefer to know that the people with whom I'll play are at a similar place...

    scribe tattoo wizard how many tattoo's can you have?

    Sure Enough - there's a feat for this. I don't know where else its found, but it is in the Vile issue of Dungeon mag from maybe a year ago. It can be found in the sealed "vile" section no less.

    Good starting ruleset for a 9 yr-old?

    CarlZog, I'm not familiar with the Moldvay-edition, but I think you underestimate your kid if you think 3.x to too complex for their little minds. I run monthly game for a bunch of kids using the standard 3.0e ruleset. The kids range from 8 to 14. While it can be a little s-l-o-w going through...

    DARK•HERITAGE -- 16 installments to date, updated April 20th

    JD: I think changing the firearm reload rules os a great idea. One full round per weapon is excellent. That would make firearms more useful as a rule. Konrad will still shoot then engage, but as happened Friday, hold one pistol back for situations where he just can hack the melee combat.

    Has your group played 'Ungrateful Ground'?

    The adventure as written can be anticlimatic. Next time I run this, I plan on holding the skeletal dragon until all the areas in that section of the senario have been explored. Thus, he's burst out the pool when they attempt to leave that area rather than when they entered the area. At that...

    Has your group played 'Ungrateful Ground'?

    Destan, I found teh thread here. I ran this serval times for the two parent kid groups I've got running. Keeping in mind that the oldest player is 16 and the youngest is , we play on a PG to G basis. This may skew my prespective some. Here's my thoughts. *** Spoilers Ahead *** I hooked the...

    Recommendation for 3rd Level Module

    Destan - Back from lunch and check the mag. Sure enough, there is a misprint on Paizo's website. The senario is Unfamiliar Ground (Territory on the website). I look for your thread and post my comments there, rather than hijack this thread.

    Recommendation for 3rd Level Module

    Destan - I'm at work, so I don't the issue in front of me in order to check for a misprint, but here's the Dungeon website indicates it as "Unfamiliar Territory." I'll double check it when I get home for lunch and repost then.

    Recommendation for 3rd Level Module

    If you have access to Dungeon #119, check out Unfamiliar Territory. It deals with some wilderness -dungeon crawl goodness. I've run it several times already and plan on another shortly. Its a good one session senario (about 4 hours).

    Deragatory Terms for Warforged?

    While not exactly an insult, the wizard I play in our Ebberron campaign consistantly tells the warforged - "I can make you."

    Brohammerj: Man Servant :lol: I'll run Bloodlines again just to see that.

    Detroit Gameday II: Dec 4th AFTERMATH!!!

    That little ole monk's belt didn't pose that great a problem in game. I thought, all things being equal, that as powerful as that PC was, he made up for the parties' lack of fighter-types and the parties' total suceptablity to fear-effects (your PC excluded). As the DM, I absolutely loved the...

    Detroit Gameday II: Dec 4th AFTERMATH!!!

    Not that their an afterthought, but I think that JoshDyal and Shadowlight deserve a big rock-star thank you for setting this game Day up and to Pandemonium for hosting it. So thank you.

    Detroit Gameday II: Dec 4th AFTERMATH!!!

    Like Captain Howdy, I couldn't stay for the afternoon session, but I sure had fun at running Bloodlines. A big thanks goes out to the players: Broghammerj (a huamn rogue), Quickbeam (a Litorian Oathsworn), Campbell (a human cleric of Kord), Rethemillis (a radiant servant of Pelor), JohnA (A...
