It did: 15/adamantine. AC was 36, IIRC. The druid (buffed with Greater Magic Fang (+1 on all attacks), Haste, Bear's Heart) dealt 2d6+17 damage per claw and 4d6+8 per bite, attack bonus was 29 (claw) and 24 (bite), grapple was +37 (STR 43, BAB +12, size H, GMF). The summoned bears were a bit...

Hi, during the last session, the party (level 17) encountered an iron golem (a special one: more hp + wounding ability + keen weapons). The wizards threw some spells at the creature but it wasn't harmed at all. The paladin and the cleric attacked it with swords (which are not adamantine...

I suppose that the player plays a druidic shifter (thus merging wild shape with greater wild shape from the shifter PrC). To answer your reference question, look at the new 3.5 wild shape of the druid (in the PHB). It refers to Polymorph and that refers to Alter Self. It's quite clear that...

IIRC, a major temple of Tempus is located in the ruins of Dragonspear Castle (which is half way between Waterdeep and Cormyr). The clerics hold off the demons pouring through a gate in the dungeons of the castle. The Uthgard barbarians in the north of Faerûn mostly revere Tempus, perhaps there...

Hmmm, what about an animal companion buffed with Fox's Cunning? It would have INT 6... ;) Anyway, it seems to be very nasty to shapechange the druid and his animal. I'd rule it that's not possible to "twin" this spell. Shapechange is a very powerful spell (close to be broken, IMO), no need to...

Absolutely right. I'm trying to avoid that effect as good as possible. Right. So, a Ring of Blinking or Cloak of Displacement is always a good choice at high levels. Hmm, well the RoB costs 27.000, a Hand of Glory 8.000 (to wear the RoB), HHH 2.000, a mighty longbow +2 8.600, boosting the...

Hi, sometimes a little wonder happens: a character gets some money after surviving an adventure. But he doesn't know how to spent the money. In this case it's my elven rogue 11 / assassin 3 / transmuter 3. He's a moderate two-weapon fighter / archer and will follow the path of an arcane...

Hi, there are still some points quite unclear in the roper's description, despite 3.5 changes... Here it goes (combat description for a roper from the SRD): 1. Drag. Can a roper drag any creature of any size with any movement speed to itself with 10 ft. per round? E.g. a colossal red great...

For Duty and Deity, fits for almost all levels with little work to convert it from AD&D to 3.5. Story: PCs have to free a lesser goddess from the fangs of a demon prince. A Demon God's Fane, level 17, but as I've read it, it's not too much work to upgrade the story for epics. IIRC, a bit time...

Sounds quite normal to me. As long as you've fun... Sometimes we've sessions where we have to close doors and windows to keep the tone inside. Eric's Grandma wouldn't like those sessions ;)

There were some nice ideas for different druids in the AD&D Complete Druid's Handbook. But as ForceUser said, it depends on the player to develop an interesting character.

Ah. Thanks for clarification, Caliban!

The demons in Maerimydra will be tougher with 3.5. Forbiddance has been changed and will be no big deal for a high-level party. The spider venom has a slightly decreased save DC, IIRC. I don't know which NPCs your party will encounter, because our DM has shortened CotSQ drastically: After a...

Hrmm, was the cover table from 3.0 taken to 3.5? Can't remember that(ok, I'll be 30 next year ;)). Provides 9/10 cover +7 to AC?

AFAIK, if a creature has cover, it gets a +4 cover bonus to AC. There is no 1/4, 9/10 cover anymore. Keeps things simple.

Well, first I create a plot, or in other words, use a plot found in a book, movie, or adventure. My last campaign used some ideas from the Stormbringer comic, Alien II, and the Shadowdale trilogy (Time of Troubles). Rarely I write the whole story down, only descriptions of important places are...

IIRC, the 3.5 Forbiddance no longer hedges out creatures failing their initial save. The damage will be dealt only when a creature enters the protected area, but not each round thereafter. EDIT: Added 3.5 Forbiddance from the SRD.

I'm playing two druids (in different groups). The first is a converted AD&D human druid (level 16). He lived in a jungle tribe that had barely contact to other people. Countless adventures led him through civilized lands and he used the time to gain knowledge about nature, religion and learn...

Only one of my PCs is an elvish orphan (he was separated from his parents when drow attacked the village. He was picked up by a trader and brought to the next city and lived there with other orphans until he was sold as a slave...). The other PCs knew their parents, sisters and brothers and met...

Yep. My druid / shifter had some fun when he found the camp of some bandits that had pillaged a small village. A little bird singing a little song named Briar Web, followed by funeral song named Heat Metal for the three guys trying to ride away and at last a charming tune for the only guy...
