Heh. Rebecca has a remarkable gift: she can make me say "I recognize and regularly abuse every single word in that paragraph, but even so I have no idea what she's trying to say." We're run three Exalted games with my group, and all shut down prematurely. The first one ended up with a Charm...

While inconvenient, a sundered wand is not a total loss. If I remember correctly, damaged magic items may be repaired by those with the appropriate feats for half the cost of creating the item in the first place.

Another spell line to consider in a similar vein is the Summon Undead chain. With the errata, you can summon undead with HD equal to your level + 1, which can yield some pretty big things. Combine that with the DR of skeletons and zombies, and you have some powerful creatures to play with, if...

Not to mention the entire Conjuration spell school. :)

I was thinking the same way you were, until I remembered that barbarians don't get a feat at 5th level. Thus, while there is no prerequisite requirement that prohibits gaining the feat at 5th level, the fact that you don't get a feat at 5th level would preclude it.

Not quite accurate. The UA conjurer variants allow you to a) give up a familiar in exchange for the rapid casting ability, b) get Augment Summoning instead of Scribe Scroll as a bonus feat and other benefits in lieu of your standard wizard bonus feats, and c) give up your bonus spells per...

"The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches...Born to those who have thrice defied him, born as the seventh month dies...And the Dark Lord will mark him as his equal, but he will have power the Dark Lord knows not...And either must die at the hands of the other, for neither can...

I <3 the battlemap. I find that it neatly removes nearly all ambiguity as to who is where and can be affected by what, as well as assisting with issues of cover, AoO, flanking, etc. My group seems to prefer to run battles as more tactical simulations than cinematic events, which suits me just...

I don't have the book with me either, but IIRC it specifies that it works against arcane spellcasters and creatures with [arcane?] spell-like abilities.

I'm pretty sure that spell-likes are considered arcane unless specified otherwise. The quote's a little flimsy, as it's discussing how spells with effects that differ by class are determined, but I think it relevent. Ah, here's the citation: I'll look into it further, but I think it's +2...

Hi, everyone! We recently started up a Force-user game, and I had a question regarding Force skills. As a general rule one cannot take 10 on skills when distracted, such as by combat. However, many iForce skills with few to no applications outside of battle (e.g. Battlemind, Force Lightning)...

Probably. Either that one, or the incredibly racist one I'd wager. Time to google that phrase. I was right! Victory for Sylvanas!

I, too, am partial to the Ghost Tower of Inverness. I remember playing that one as a kid, using my near-memorized AD&D Adventure Gamebook based on the module as a guide to what was ahead. Didn't know it was cheating then... I also remember being irked that my cleric didn't have enough cash...

Well, there's also a Portsmouth, RI. And in Virginia. Also England. I suspect there's at least one more on the east coast alone, not to mention Canada, South Africa, Australia, basically anywhere the British colonized. Given a) it had people in chains, b) the island isn't terribly far from...

Let's say I'm Lidda. In the first situation, I can use the UMD skill to emulate the cleric's ability to turn undead (forging the waterfall documentation) to power the chalice (get a good tax rate). In the second example, I really need to turn some undead, so I emulate the turning feature (own...

We use the XP system from Unearthed Arcana, which dispenses with the "Well, the average party level is 5.23, any you were facing a CR 8 monster, so that gives us (insert math here) XP" bits of the system in favor of giving each monster a set amount of XP based on their CR. For instance, a CR 1...

Oh, man. If I had to wait the entire summer between season 3 and 4, I would be posting from prison right now, having gone out and killed someone.
