There's much I like about DDI (ooooo searchable rules updated with errata that my group can share... that is an ongoing revenue stream that I will support.) But I UNIMPRESSED with the Game Table. There are free and single pay options that are, in my opinion, much better. The only advantage...

The only game called Agora that I could find wasn't anything like that. Do you have a link for it? If so, please PM me if you could.

I'm wondering if campaign notes can link to each other, and if there is a search function. My dream campaign note feature would be to be able to separate player and DM knowledge and export only the player portion into HTML.

What that is missing is how it effects your social status and your interaction with other social classes.

Does anyone know of a published (or web available) set of rules for character "upkeep"? I'm looking for rules that would set a gp cost for the social status that the characters wish to maintain. A ranger might not care at all, a paladin may have a reputation to maintain, a rogue may wish to...

Looking for comments, questions, to improve the concept. Jynda's Story - as you meet her in a tavern in the Dalelands...... “There's a House of Mystra in Harrowdale, that cute little port on the edge of Cormanthor. That's where I'm from. When the townsfolk first saw the mages in Mystra...

From the SRD:

Pyrotechnics puts out a fire source that you already control - or turns your target fire into smoke - which doesn't give darkvision creatures any advantage. So it doesn't suit the purpose at all. It's also second level. Faerl'Elghinn, do you mind if I repost Snuff with attribution to you?

_This_ is along the lines of what I was thinking. I should have made my query more clear. I was looking for a low level spell. Magical light is pretty ubiquitous above mid-level. Unfortunately, this is similar power-level to Quench, which is a 3rd level spell. The big difference being that...

sorry, double post. mods delete?

Is there a spell to extinguish a normal fire? I'm not seeing a low level spell that does just that. Prestidigitation might work, with a range of 10ft - but I think any one holding a torch or lantern would deserve a saving throw, which pretty much invalidates prestidigitation. There are...

Look at how invisiblity affects the hide vs spot contest: When you're moving and invisible, you hide at +20. When you're still and invisible, you hide at +40. This is a hide vs spot contest to merely determine the hex you're in. You still get the miss chance even if you know the hex. The...

I think you WOULD get sneak attack damage (I've been reading up on it.) This is what a column on the WoTC site said about sneak attacks and spells. Sneak attacks that require a to hit roll but don't deal just hit points (like an enervation spell) do get sneak attack damage. So I'd say that...

Yes, and it fits so well with the backstory for this character. It's in the Realms, and the notion that there was Shadow Weaving somewhere in my parentage is exactly the "dark past" I'm looking for. That and tiefling seems to be getting as clich'ed as drow. From Tome and Magic: Dark creatures...

I imagine that's with some of the funky classes in Unearthed Arcana. I don't have that. Are they in the SRD? 3rd level spell casting AND all those skills? That's a scary first level character!

As for the Dark Template - or the Level Adjustment for the Tiefling - I'd be hoping to use the Reducing Level Adjustment rules (I think they are from Unearthed Arcana, I don't have that to be sure) to catch up the level. Basically, after 3rd level I could pay 3,000 exp and be done with it. So...

Ok, here's another try at the Sneak Attack Mage. Previous standard builds where very weak in the mid-levels, and the 3 non-casting levels really hurt. But I've got a character concept that I think fits (roleplaying wise) and I'm determined to min/max the hell out of it within those boundaries...

Hmmm - a feat that turns a class into a favored class? Found some: Arcane Schooling Diverse Background - this has a prereq of "half human". I wonder if Tiefling counts? heh. Thanks - I wouldn't have thought to look for those. I guess if the DM says "no" to the rogue/spellthief substitution...

Favored Classes are always one of the original base classes - at least for any race I can think of. However, there have been many new base classes that are variations of the original base classes. For instance, swashbuckler off of fighter. Spellthief off of rogue. Is it possible that these...

darkness and concealment? Question on concealment: So, if I am said tiefling on the edge of the darkness, would I be able to make ranged attacks on non-concealed targets while receiving the concealment since I am within it? * Darkness Spell vs Darkness Environment: They don't compare or...
