I've been away from ENWorld for months now, and was only vaguely aware of the mess of the last few months... but I'm glad to see it's come roaring back. I've made my pledge, and hope to have time again in the near furture to hang out around here more often. Congrats Morrus and all of ENWorld on...

The description for the hag's Evil Eye specifically mentions remove curse and dispel evil. I'd guess that break enchantment might work, as well.

ZOMG! How far do those go when you shoot them out of a cannon??

(sorry for the long post!) Either or both of those sound fine to me. I think it's just DM's call: whatever you need for the scenario. Personally, I don't see any harm in giving mindless constructs fairly broad and sophisticated behaviors, just so long as that behavior doesn't stray too far...

"Mindless" is just the term for the INT "non-Ability". A mindless creature operates instinctually or by simple programmed commands. To my reading, that means it can act reflexively or follow simple instructions, but only pre-programmed instructions. Such a creature can't learn anything new...

Ultimate Combat has a "called shots" mechanic. You might be able to use the parts relevant to head damage, and just reflavor it as a skull crush. Of course being unarmed, that's probably not ever going to result in a dramatic insta-death explosion of brains and bone fragments-- but you might...

I've tried that. The chain gets all tangled up with my silky chest hair and nipple rings, and chafes something fierce! So yeah: there's definitely something to the whole "interferes with somatic components" thing.

Looking forward to checking it out!

This isn't terribly relevant to your situation, ShadyDM, but it might be useful to someone. There's a very informal little game called Dawn of Worlds (link to PDF) in which players basically assume the roles of gods and collaboratively draw the map, people the lands, and generate the history...

"Simply securing sensitive information" can be a bear of a problem. At least in my experience, maintaining sensitive material is prone to "mission creep". As an organization or project ages, it produces more and more secret material, of course. Moreover, there also tends to be a lot of...

Is it just a concidence that "Umbran" is an anagram of "Barnum"?? Who is suckering whom here??? Trust no one!

I have it on good authority-- a certain Dr. Ann O. Nymoussource*-- that it was a poor attempt to cover up a cloning experiment gone awry. I can't say too much, but it involves the Piltdown Man and a well-known the tinfoil commodity trader. Trust no one. Especially not ENWorld mods. [END OF...

I read the books, but don't own them. I've never played, mainly for lack of a group. I woudn't mind giving it a try, but it's not on my priority list. At this point, I'm actually a bit more interested in trying out Gamma World 4e than D&D.

I think we just ran Rangers and Paladins as having a negative caster level (eg, Pal1 has caster level of -3). This just becomes a penalty on the caster-level check to cast the scroll spell; thus penalty naturally decreases as the PC Levels, and completely vanishes when the character becomes a...

Perhaps the two worlds shift around relative to each other? That is to say, maybe-- from the goblins' perspective-- a particular portal (or whatever connects the two worlds) opens near Lumberbrook Village tonight, but opens onto the Desert of Howling Wastes tomorrow, and onto the courtyard of...

Two words: doorknob of annihilation.

I've tried now and then, and it's never worked for me that I can recall. Using different browsers on Mac OS 10.6, results are.... Chrome: long wait, fails to load: Error 500 Firefox: long wait, fails to load Opera: long wait, fails to load: "Remote server not found". Safari: long wait, fails...

It's not exactly what you're asking for (and this is actually for Pathfinder), but I've found the following tables useful for assigning ad hoc target numbers: The Gneech's "Page 42" for Pathfinder. His assumptions are noted at bottom, so you can tweak and mod the numbers across the board as...

I know this thread is a week old, but for anyone still concerned, Text Enhance is adware that surreptitiously installs itself in a browser. HERE are instructions for removing/disabling it in several different browsers, along with some explanatory information.

To my knowledge, there's no pre-defined general RAW rule for feats..? I know that OKC Stephens in his "Loot 4 Less" series priced a feat at 5000gp. His reasoning was as follows (yoinked from L4L vol 1 for 3.5e): BEHIND THE COUNTER: Pricing Feats Many of the rings in this book (such as the ring...
