    Help, how should i play the following character??

    There are two real ways to go about this. A) Your a Female Drow, you rule the universe, everybody else is just cannon fodder. Never take point, never take rearguard, and in combat try and take out the easier enemies. B) You've seen the error of your sister's ways, and are incredibly humble as...

    Game of Death continuation thread 1

    Reading all those fun post on somethingawful about my Druid Horde of Death! (TM) just made me feel warm and fuzzy inside. :) Almost as warm and fuzzy as realizing that it'll take me 5 hours to do my moves. In the middle of finals. I'm pretty certain it'll be cool, but in the meantime but...

    PCs gone wild

    And I continue my story. Same guy, same campaign. After the ill-fated Nigel the Destroyer, he comes back as an elven ranger. After a rather nasty mountain crossing, the party decides to make camp instead of pushing onto town in the dark. He decides he wants to keep going, through the trees...

    PCs gone wild

    This is not one of my better moments... So let's go! I was playing a Pimped-Out Ninja Assassin of Death (PONAD). I believe he was specifically a Rgr1/Brb1/Rog2, but I can't remeber specifically. What I do remember is that he had two 18s, 3 16s, and a 14, 56 points total. He was uber-buff...

    Rate Matrix Reloaded

    I give it a 6, it is at the same time one of the lamest and one of the coolest movies I've ever seen, but ultimately winds up being a parody of the first one. Stuff that bothered me: Locke: Who put this guy in charge of the army? IIRC, the human fleet numbers around 80 ships, and he...

    Making lv 1 Paladin for the first time & need help

    Race: Human I would put your stats in this order. Str 17 Dex 10 Con 14 Int 8 Wis 12 Cha 13 For skills, you should keep Ride maxed out, and get at least 5 ranks in Handle Animal for the bonus to ride checks. After that boost your diplomacy if the part doesn't have a good 'face' character...

    Re: Repost Thank you, Jemery, I thought I'd lost that. But back to the revisied description Hagbard the Chartreuse (PC)- A man of indeterminate age with a large beard and greenish robes wanders in out of the wilderness, followed by 14 large bears, two elephant, and a rather nondescript pair...

    Do you need a character concept?

    It looks like you need a cleric, so how about some sort of roving troubleshooter cleric, ready to deal with any sort of demonic, undead, or insane arcane threat.

    Creating the Ultimate Wrassler

    One thing you'll certainly want to do as a Grappler is to get an Ioun Stone of Spell Storing loaded with an Antimagic Field. If you can get an enemy spellcaster inside an antimagic field and keep him there while you pull his arms off, you're almost certain to kill him. Fighters may be a little...

    Ethics of Magic

    I think that one of the affects is that in any Lawful or Neutral society, using charm or compulsion magic would be one of the worst offenses. Think about it, what would disturb you more: Several world leaders being blow up in a rather strange manner, or finding out that the goverment is...

    Recipe for an Army Killer

    The ultimate tac nuke spell is Sunburst. It's IIRC, Clr and Drd 8 and has an area of affect of 10' radius/level. That means 300' diameter sphere at 15th level. Admittedly it only does 3d6 damage, but it's pretty likely to blind an enemy army. I'm getting images of gassed soldiers from WWI...

    Advice on handling a large, hostile army

    I second the 'bring in 2d10 new opponents every round' tactic, but if you're really insane, you can map out the entire town, place units, and give each unit a 'combat bonus'. When units collide, roll opposed combat checks. The winner loses one point of combat bonus, and the loser loses 1 point...

    (OT) Literature Abusers

    Legalize Literature. The harmful effects of reading have been grossly mistated. Most of the side-effects of reading come from associating with criminal literature addicts, such as English Professors, Messageboard denzians, Librarians, and the dreaded Waldenbooks Clerk, or 'pusher'. If users...

    Nyambe PrC balance?

    In general Nyambe is slightly overpowered as compared to standard D&D, so a little bit of unbalancing is to be expected when everybody starts loading up on combat spells and Full Plste with Nyamban classes. Most of the PrCs looked okay, but I've house-ruled the ones with a full 0-9 level spell...

    15th Level Summoner

    Some good choices for Summoned Monsters are VII: Elemental, Greater VII: Celestial Elephant (Hasted Full Attack+Trample move), Bebilith VI: Celestial Dire Bear (Grapple is your friend) V: Arrowhawk, Medium sized, Fiendish Giant Crocodile. Another plan that you may want to try and pull off is...

    Yasumoto Bayushi Here he is, the feasome Yasumoto Bayushi. If I were to do this again with a similar character I would. A) Trade out Luck of Heroes for Expert Tactictican B) Get a better AC and Con C) Get True Seeing D) go with an archery or thrown weapon route. IIRC, all the benefits of...
