No, he certainly cannot fly at all. His avariel mother made sure of that when he was born. He can't even glide if he needs to. That was something I made my mind up about when I created him. I also thought about using the system in Savage Species, where you kind of "grow" into a monster class...

Thanks for the input everyone! I decided to use a regular point buy with no mods, basically using the half-elf as a guide. I dropped the low-light vision and opted for 60' darkvision as a half-drow. Does this seem ok? I looked over the various stat mods for avariel and drow both, but wasn't...

OooOooo..... all kinds of ideas to work with! Please, keep them coming! I appreciate it! :D

Auvathyrri Well, if you're taking requests (or commissions, just let me know), then I have an NPC I'd love to have rendered. His name is simply Dimidius. He is an auvathyrri. The production of a dark elf and an avariel. This warrants some backstory. His mother was of the warrior caste of...

Ok everyone, I want to ask all the wonderful ENworlders here for some help. I have just started a new campaign and the PC's have already had some weird dreams and some divinations about a mysterious black cube. I have not yet decided exactly what this cube does, but I do want it to be a major...

Well, I could run him as a +2 or +3 ECL, but since he is an NPC and the PC's are 1st level, I don't want him to overshadow them in any way. The story is supposed to revolve around them and I don't want to steal their thunder if they have to rely on him too much. As far as the ragged wings go...

Well, before I'd decided to have the avariel/drow hybrid, I'd statted him using human/drow. Basically, the half-drow out of Races of Faerun. I do like the idea of having the combination of the two cancel out many of the inherent benefits. He was born with wings, but his avariel mother had them...

I thought I would put this in House Rules since I figured it would be the best place for it. I am running an NPC monk in my group and I've come up with something I think is a bit different. He is an elf who was the result of a drow raping an avariel. Without getting into backstory, how can I...

"Throw it a bag of meat!" Origin: My players had set out to find a group of bandits whose hideout was in a series of canyons. Unfortunately they didn't take near enough food with them and soon had to hunt for food to survive. They would kill something, then set the meat out in the sun to dry...

Hmmm... though I do see the advantages to your system, Mighty Halfling, I'll probably just stick to the normal way of inflicting and recording damage. The reason I'll do that I so I can describe the combat in great detail, every hit and possible scar. I think the combat is more dynamic that way...

Thank you kindly for the input everyone! I actually had everyone send me their rolls from the Irony Games roller, but I don't have a map or anything, so movement may be a primary issue. Is there anyplace online to post a decent battlemap so things aren't so confused?

Hello everyone! I mainly lurk here, but recently I've run into a small problem and I know the wonderful people at ENWorld can help. I've run several online games in the past, but with very few players. Recently I've started a new game, and I have a few more players than I'm used to. To keep...

I have a Maug fighter that I'm looking for a miniature for. He wields a greataxe, and I am seriously considering the Khador: Juggernaut mini from the War Machines game. With little work it could be made to look like a rock man in heavy armor. Which he is. Heh. I've searched and searched for a...

Thanks, DanMcS! Hmmm... maybe I'm thinking of something different, but didn't it also have something in there about magic being used in war? Or does that simply tie in with the politics?

The Injunction I have decided to de-lurk myself and post. Great story, Sepulchrave. Absolutely a fantastic read. Would you mind terribly if I yoinked the Injunction? For my own game? And, speaking of which, does anyone have a copy or a link to it? I have the gist of it, but don't know the...

Well, the Smackdowns are fun, certainly. But you have to remember that what is good for the goose is good for the gander. /If/ the DM would allow such a thing, then the players better watch for it too. Mine do. :)

How much material do you normally prepare for a good game session? Do you wing most of it, or plan certain encounters? I am running my group every other week or so, and each session is 8-10 hours long. Granted, there is a lot of normal chatter, but they still can get an amazing amount...

Believe it or not, alchohol will remove it. Not the rubbing kind, the drinking kind. And I guess that liquor would be a better term. Try a small dab of Jim Beam or some other whiskey. No, this is not a joke. I had a friend, and when we started to play a new campaign, he pulled out a...

Alright, maybe it's just me, but I'm a bit confused. In Dragon #295, in the Sage Advice section, the Sage is asked about attacking shields and armor. Specifically, "What's the procedure for attacking a character's suit of armor or shield?" The Sage goes on to talk about hardness and...

Well, gee, now I feel dumb. :rolleyes: Thanks! But still, it seems weird that the Identify spell would give this information, but that the much more powerful Analyze says nothing to that effect. *shrugs* And yes, that spell is pretty cool, gamecat.
