I've rolled high before (never like this) and purposefully nerfed the results to balance out closer to the other characters in the group.

Piratecat, google ginko bilboa. It's used to enhance other stuff besides memory. I think you're right, but there are (funnier) possibilities as well.

I loved the artwork -- notice the zombie dragon and the mountains in the background extending into the other frames.

"What can I do to restore my speech" or something like that. Read it on the Giant's boards earlier, forget the precise wording"

Thanks for the tips. I've found that an increase in CON, which many animals give, goes a long way to help with minimizing the HP hit due to +3 LA. The mention of the were-advanced lion got me thinking: When creating were-templates, it seemed to me that I should use the "basic" edition of the...

Looking to add natural lycanthropes as playable races to a middle-range (level 7-10) campaign. Any tips for playability? Are they fragile "paper tigers" because of an LA +3 and animal hit dice? I would think that the DR 10/silver helps a bit there? I'd add a few more races to add more...

OK, that makes sense. I was just wondering if it had ever been published, as it seemed to have been simply dropped right in with the other (more iconic) lycanthrope choices. I love badgers and wolverines, which is why I bring it up. But that was probably obvious. DON'T JUDGE ME! ;)

I just noticed that in the Ebberon Campaign book (I don't own it), under the PrC Weretouched Master, it describes how you can take on more and more characteristics of the shifter's lycanthropic heritage. Example "target" animals include wolf, bear, rat, boar, and WOLVERINE(?). Is there a...

I was ten years old, and the red box let me pretend to be an elf doing wonderful things. We hardly used any rules at all, aside from abilty scores, THAC0 and such character-necessary things. It was the fact that we had a medium to use our imaginations that made D&D special. When he get's...

Whoops, I posted an answer but then realized that I had misunderstood the question. I don't know

Who else has a secret to hide besides the obvious Haley? V? Belkar?

1. As a DM, I'm looking for ideas on how to play good dragons who have polymorphed into humanoids. What are their motives? What might be their occupation? Do they use the job as a disguise, or use their powers for good, as counselor or even adventurer? The "crunch" is easy here, it is the...

I usually consider myself pretty well versed in D&D lore -- I've been playing since the red box Basic set in the early eighties. That said, I just realized that since I don't subscribe to Dragon there are a lot of things I miss out on. Rockstar elves, is that the new race the previous poster...

As home-brew DM, I never had problems. Worst case was a barbarian-ranger-ranged fighter group that did all right, just bought lots of potions and sent the highest HP in front if there was a fear of traps (I don't use too many traps). Agreed, if I had to follow a set module they would have...

How besides a few levels in monk can you meet the prerequisite of base speed of 50 ft?

Thanks for the input. All good points, both pro and con.

Do you think the Deep Dwarf's extended darkvision and better racial bonuses make up for the light sensitivity? DMs, if a player wanted to make a character as a deep dwarf for a little extra "flavor," would you allow this as a PC race option in your D&D games? From d20 SRD...

I have been reading through the Ptolus previews, and found this description of the greatsword of one of the main characters: From http://www.montecook.com/cgi-bin/page.cgi?mpress_Ptolus_comic2 "This blade is a +5 unholy defender greatsword. It adds a +4 enhancement bonus to the wielder's...

Exactly. With moving a lot, this is how I get to game at all. And I am working on second-generation as well, another kind of making.
