    Bad Paladin... or My First Paladin thread...

    Would you be giving him the appropriate abilities? I can't imagine someone who seems so weak-willed and unpleasant as having any bonus from his Wisdom and Charisma. With someone who is willing to give in to his urges regardless of the consequences and who is a drunkard-whoremonger, you would...

    Am I a cruel DM?

    Just wondering. I think the GM mentioned that the artifact being discussed actually radiates an anti-magic field. If they are putting this on an airship, I need to ask...Does this airship have any magic keeping it afloat or pushing it forward? Wouldn't the anti-magic cause some problems...

    Best Player ideas

    I have a player that loves to draw player maps of the regions they adventure in. It is good for me because his maps look really good and then I can use them to know where they have been and what their points of interest are. If I want to add an area, I know where they haven't been or where I...

    Player / GM seeking game(Vancouver, wa / Portland Or)

    I have one opening in my Thursday game. Can you get to Beaverton by 4:30? We are currently playing a 3.0 game with some minor house rules. Send an email to me at wally_zimm@hotmail.com and we can talk further. Sully's offer might be good as well. :) -wally

    Player / GM seeking game(Vancouver, wa / Portland Or)

    Where in Portland are you looking? How far do you want to travel to a game? How often do you want to game? Just some minor questions. :) I currently participate in two games, but I know more gamers, so if you are having a problem finding, I may be able to help. -wally

    Exp. leaches?

    I have a related question from the other angle. Would you give 1/2 the exp to the party if they are of a lower level then the people that they are travelling with? If say they were 3rd level and the druids were 18th, or maybe even 8th. Would you then give more exp to the druids and less to...

    A Flaw with saving throws or is there

    Maybe I missed it earlier in the thread, but I need to ask. There are those that are saying that a natural '1' shouldn't necessarily equate to an automatic failure. Are you that say this also saying that a natural '20' shouldn't equate to an automatic success? -wally

    Need ideas for magic items

    I have seen many topics like this in the past, but I want to start a new one anyway... There is a large population of magi in a certain part of my world, and with the party beginning to encounter some of them, they will end up gathering some magic items. Now, I just want as many ideas as y'all...

    Explaining vorpal sword effect

    I had a friend who told me a great story of his dwarf chopping into a dragon's foot, and having the head fall off and land on him. :)

    Familiars and role-playing

    I am just wondering how DMs handle familiars that their players take. Do you require some role-playing sometime during the campaign regarding the familiar, by possibly having it participate in an adventure or just have the player do something with it? Do you mind if a player picks a familiar...

    Boredom [rant]

    Similar Problem, but from other side I don't really mean to hi-jack this, and please don't take this personal, but as a DM, I have a similar problem. The game I am running was centered on a specific character. The party journeyed for over a year (in their time) to help the druid with her...

    Characters defined by "their stuff"

    I see people making references to heros of myth and legend, but I haven't heard one legend yet that was similar to what most (don't read too much into that) D&D characters end up like. A character of legend can be defined by the weapon he wields, or item he carries, but D&D characters aren't...

    The Misunderstood Paladin

    Actually, I just thought of this and it made me laugh: Evil Town Guard: "Are you a paladin?" Paladin: "No, I am a warrior of virtue and wielder of justice in the name of my god who has chosen me as one to defend the weak and seek to destroy evil." Evil Town Guard: "Lord Darkness has...

    How did he lie? If you are asked a question and you don't answer that question, is that a lie? -wally

    The Misunderstood Paladin

    lying? It seems like some people really get hung up on the lying thing. Just because a paladin can't lie(if you play him that way) doesn't mean he always tells everyone the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. There are many instances where he can get by without lying while the...

    The "I'm going to get hit no matter what my AC is" philosphy

    Now that is depressing. Does your DM want you challenged that much or does he just not know about balancing things? -wally

    The "I'm going to get hit no matter what my AC is" philosphy

    What does the reverse look like? Are you and your fellow players able to hit the enemy a lot, a little or not at all? -wally

    Timestop immunity?

    With regards to 'E' I understand. It may also be that way to all of the others who have this ability, but when you run into those DM's that choose to ignore errata, and play with what is written, you need some way to explain it. I agree that it shouldn't be possible, but I was wanting to know...
