I always thought the use of the word "Act" here was kinda confusing. The campaign consists of three Acts. Acts consists of several chapters. Chapters consist of... several Acts. I started thinking of the "larger" Acts as "Books" instead, but now there's only two actual books, so I guess I'll...

Something I've been wondering about, not sure if it came up in a previous thread... Twice, the party comes across the following "poem," once on the skull of the dragon Cheshimox, and once on the stock of Kvarti's rifle (supposedly carved from a giant's thigh-bone): "Cry out for at the end of...

Here's an idea: Nicodemus' ritual is set to be irreversibly completed, and SOON. So soon there's no time to take an extended rest. Yes, Axis island is hours away by airship, and you can't teleport there because of planar influences... but who's to say you can't have the PCs steal some...

Ryan Nock and Russell Morrissey collaborated on a superhero-themed d20 supplement book called "Four-Color to Fantasy," I think back in 2002? I haven't read it, but from what I've heard, Gale was one of the sample heroes inside (as was Tinker). My headcanon has always been that Gale's flight is a...

Apet is #39, the weird gray cloud. Reida has shrunken, though it can be restored to its full size if somehow removed from the Gyre. Not sure if there's an official explanation, but it seems to me like when a plane enters the Gyre, it's either reduced in size or huge chunks of it are shorn...

Awesome!!

Sweet! But I think you mean "Grinding Gears of Heaven."

Also I'm pretty sure that a thrown dagger has a range of 5/10, and a pistol has 10/20. Pistols also have a d6 damage die, where daggers are a d4.

Here's one I designed for one of my players (untested, we're still in Paragon Tier). It's called Perfect Construct, and it's largely a reskin of Perfect Self, but with some stuff replaced. You are now designing your greatest invention: Yourself. Prerequisites Technologist theme. When you...

The adventures themselves (Chapter 2 and onwards) have a section at the front, usually "Rewards," that details how the party's Prestige will change with the different groups after the Chapter is over. So it might say that if you saved Flint from being destroyed, Flint Prestige goes up one.

Well, the favor system is pretty much laid out in the Player's Guide, so I'm not sure how much more help you need. The long and the short of it is that once each day, your group can call in a favor from one group. The bigger the favor, the higher the Favor Rating. If the Favor Rating is above...

Knowing my players, there's almost no way I won't end up needing this stat block. Thanks so much! I may make some minor tweaks, but this is a huge help. You're awesome.

I just used the low-level version of Asrabey; I saw that 'guards outshining the PCs' eventuality a mile away. IMHO, the guards are there to show the PCs the sort of help they can draw on using the Prestige system in future adventures, kind of demonstrating the difference between being a normal...

Hi, I just got my free download of ZG#11, and I have some concerns about elements that seem to be missing/erroneous... There is no monster stat block for "critic angel swarms." There is no monster stat block for Ashima-Shimtu. :( :( :( (a minor issue) Hezophiel's stat block says that...

(SPOILER-FREE VERSION) I'm not sure if it's spelled out in the Player's Guide (so it might not be common knowledge in-setting), but eventually the players discover that during the battle where Srasama appeared, the Clergy was maintaining an active Linked Portal ritual in Methia, in order to...

The world in question is later revealed to be Mojang, the planet that eventually takes up the role as the plane of Life in the Obscurati's first attempt at changing the world. It has the aspect of Artifice, and thereby allows plant life to be tweaked and tended like machines. Nathan is studying...

Just wrapped up Chapter 5 (mostly). The players managed to surprise me a few times. First, they decided that sending the colossus into the Dreaming would definitely provoke a war with the Unseen Court, and urged Aodhan not to perform the ritual under any circumstance. When asked for an...

Now that I'm thinking of it, why wasn't there a technique in Chapter 10?

Shiny stuff! I admit to a bit of confusion; in Chapter 10, the jaunt ability granted by Fourmyle is said to let someone teleport "anywhere they could walk or climb to." But in this adventure, it's okay to have PCs jaunt back onto their hovering ship? What exactly are the limits?
