    Awakened growth?

    I don't have a MM handy, but I believe this books rules say that 'Awakened' animals do gain HD, skill points, and the like. The aforementioned Advancement Chart is a bit confusing...I don't think it was made with 'Awaken' in mind. Recap: Animal companion allows a friend(s) of up twice your HD...

    House Rules to deal with the XP Penalty for item creation

    Evil things which drain levels might also allow one to use xp from non item creating casters. Indeed the evil use of such monsters, spells, and items is a basic part of a campaign I am now writing up.

    How on Earth do you have a tightly controlled D&D world with normal magic (Long)

    I am currently working on a campaign yet to be introduced whereby arcane magic was plentiful (with the world run by the bad guys) and is now almost poof-gone due to some disaster.(bad guys are apparantly gone too) It is essentially a low magic campaign amongst the ruins of a high magic world...

    Identify... this!

    I would assert that mages with Item Creation feats would have a bonus to IDing related items without the use of the Identify spell.

    Product Comparisons?

    I am mostly looking for a tool to 1st create said campaign. Campaign management is second; combat management is third. For some reason I can't get Java 1.4.1 to work....so I can't try PCGen nor others. :( I must get help this weekend when I have time.

    Product Comparisons?

    I have been looking about here for some time, and apart from some informal though nice comparisons between specific programs, I am still unsure what is a good combination of complemetary. Has there been any general and oobjective comparisons between the various programs available for preparing...

    Maze of the riddling minatour

    I have asked this before, and am wondering if anything has changed. Long ago I got M2 Maze of the Riddling Minataur...and lost the magic pen which reveals the hidden messages on the pages. I have some of the entries, but they are fading fast. Someone has posted their results onto...

    Faeries?

    hmmm....I always thought the Pixies were misrepresentations of the Picts (a Roman title for this cultural group btw) Sprites seem to have taken the place of Faerie though. Do Wil o'wisps count as faerie? Notice also how the Banshee (aka Bane-Sidhe) is missing from 3e DnD. Tieflings seem...

    Wu Jen spell specialty

    I don't have the Oriental Adventures book, but this argument came up last night: At third level and each third level thereafter, a Wu must pick one of her spells to be special, using one of the Metamagic feats for that spell automatically and without using a feat slot for it. The problem is...

    Can you learn a spell that you cannot cast?

    I know you could understand and copy spells you could not yet cast in Baldurs Gate. I believe others here have made the distinction between Understanding a spell and Knowing it. Much like most would be teen drivers understand how to drive a car, but they don't Know how until they have...
