    so, exactly how evil are we talking here? (kinda long)

    This sounds to me like the DM is mad about you "getting his bad guy". He of course wants the bad guy to live because HE has plans for HIM. He sees you about to kill him off, ruining *his* plans and throws that out there to spite you, hoping that you won't kill him so that his evil guy can get...

    D&D 3.x [Dragon] #307 - 3.5 Changes: Some we know, some we don't...

    Well I'm really glad that they are changing Hold Person/Monster. I really *really* hate those spells. Not just as a Player either, but as a DM as well. Basically, I don't like ANYTHING that can "insta-kill" a PC. That's just NOT what D&D is about *to me*. It's not Heroic. Isn't that why there...

    D&D 3.x [3.5] Archer changes

    Without thinking about it too much, a pretty good thing that I thought of as soon as I saw that Andy Collins line was this: Completely get rid of magical "ammunition". You need to buy a Magical launcher (bow, crossbow, sling). Everything "fired" from the launcher is a "magical" projectile...

    Eek! Help me lower spell failure!

    Difier you are correct, it was Book of Eldritch Might II There is also one that for a +1 ability gives the armor no maximum dex score (use that high dex with Full Plate) Also, for a +1 you can lower the Armor Check Penalty by 2, and for +2 you can make it 0. Book of Eldritch Might II is a...

    CR, DR and dead heroes...

    Wow.. hehe Did the Paladin use the Searing Light? That would have been very helpful! About the Fire Immunity *and* Cold Resistance, that explains it, and man, that is just mean! hehe After hearing about what kind of description the Ranger gave to the party, I can see why they didn't get any...

    DragonHide Armor, what the *&$%!!?

    Thanks for letting it stay as long as it did P-kitty :D I *did* get the "rules" answer that I was seeking, and from there it moved into House Rules. hehe Steveerooo, did you look on the size comparisson chart on page 131 in the PHB? That's where I just think that you can definately get more...

    CR, DR and dead heroes...

    Well, I see a few things going on in this situation. The first thing though, depends on you. How did they get those weapons? Did you give them out as treasure, or did *they* buy them like that? If *you* gave them to them as treasure, the fault is partly on your side for throwing them up...

    DragonHide Armor, what the *&$%!!?

    Re: Re: DragonHide Armor, what the *&$%!!? Well, that's pretty much what I'm talking about, yay, big whoop that I save 150gp on MW costs, this is DRAGON hide we're talking about here (but again, my solution to this really involves making a house-rule. That being, for those curious, I was...

    Quaal's Feather Token activation method

    Well, you may want to rethink this just a *little* bit if you are going to make that rule and *stick* to it. Such as, for instance, the Oak Tree.. Say you are falling to your death and you think, "Wow, I should use my Quaal's Feather Token to produce a tree underneath me" in this case, there...

    Quiver of Ehlonna - how does it work?

    ::shudders:: Heya Hypersmurf, remember *my* thread on this subject? :D Can someone that is a member somehow find and post a link to it here? :) (I believe it's subject was something to the effect of: Heward's Handy Haversack = free quickdraw? +Quiver of Ehlonna Questions)

    DragonHide Armor, what the *&$%!!?

    So I'm flipping through the MM because I'm trying to learn more because I just started DM'ing, and I come across Dragons. A very interesting topic to read about. So I get to the part about DragonHide Armor, and it looks like the *only* bonus a player gets to having armor made from DragonHide is...

    Evil Cleric, Cure, and Heal skill...

    I recently started playing in an Evil-aligned game, and although I'm not a cleric, I thought of the perfect idea for an evil cleric. Just be an UNDEAD Evil Cleric, and then you can spontaneously inflict on yourself to heal yourself! Yeah it screws over your party mates, but hey, your evil, who...

    [Quick!] DM Question about XP for Traps

    Hmm.. ok.. It just kind of doesnt' make sense to me.. hehe. There's that whole "13 encounters to lvl" thing, and with the traps that people would set up on certain things this seems to accelerate it. Also a trap of 2 lvls higher then the pc's isn't as fearsome (that is a word, yes?? lol!) as a...

    [Quick!] DM Question about XP for Traps

    Hey all! I'm gaming here in about 2 hours (it's currently 10:30am pst, 1:30pm est) and I have a question for you DM's regarding Traps. How do you handle XP for traps? Say the party is 4 lvl 2 characters and you throw a CR2 trap at them. A- the party does not find the trap and sets it off...

    Jump Skill...what the?

    If you use a laptop to help you along with your games (usually the DM), you can download the electronic Aids right from this site (look closely down the left column of the main page) and they're pretty helpful, you can just plug modifiers and such in and then you just have to plug in your jump...

    DM question, need help with MM attacks

    Hey there all, I'm going to be running my first campaign as a DM and I have a question about the listings of monster's attacks. Here's what I'm troubled about, multiple attacks and such. Take the Gargoyle for instance (MM1 page 94) It's attacks are listed as: 2 claws +6 melee, bite +4 melee...
