    Le bazar de la vie : OOC Thread. [Full]

    Guillaume, est-ce que tu peux m'expliquer encore l'échelle de déplacement qu'on utilise? Mon humain a 30 pies de déplacement, ce qui est l'équivalent de 10 mètres? Combien de pies ou mètres représente chaque case de la carte?

    Une ville enchaînée : Le Bazar de la vie [Full]

    1ere action: De case I17, Altran lance hébétement sur la créature 3 et se déplace en case I18. Il crie «Imay, reviens!» (Note: La portée du sort est 6 carrés, ce qui veux dire que la créature est hors danger. Jet d'échec de sort profane: 16%) 2eme action: Altran met sa lanterne par...

    Sorcerers and spell components. What were they thinking!

    Then where did wizards get their knowledge of magic? Magic? You say that in a world with magic there's any number of ways for a sorcerer to wake up in the morning knowing the components to a spell he's never even encountered before. Unfortunately the designers don't suggest even one of...

    Sorcerers and spell components. What were they thinking!

    Xavim is right - it doesn't make a lick of sense. Sorcerers can cast a spell without ever having learned it from anywhere. It's like one day waking up and being able to speak Lithuanian. The component of each arcane spell are specific. A verbal component is a set of specific words. A...

    What deity does YOUR Cleric worship?

    Cleric 3 of Helm/Rogue 1, although he'll probably end up worshipping the arch-fiend Belaphagor before too long if he doesn't watch his step.

    It's time for true elementalism

    I feel that 8 ranks of Knowledge (the Planes) is more appropriate for 3.5. 1. Clerics receive Knowledge (the Planes) as a class skill. 2. Knowledge of the Elemental Planes is covered under Knowledge (the Planes), not Knowledge (religion) or Knowledge (nature). 3. 3.5 explicitly says that...

    cohort: "caused death of other followers"

    Followers don't literally follow you into killer dungeons. They actually stay behind and guard your manor and tend your horses and stuff. You only actually take your cohort with you. Since the followers only had 6 hps that means they were 1st level experts (?). If they had been 1st level...

    Altran suit Imay mais s'arrete à la bifurcation, case I17, afin de déterminer où est tout le monde et "l'ombre."

    Altran suit Imay pour se rejoindre avec les autres. Il tient sa lanterne devant toi. Son arbalète légère est accrochée à son sac à dos. «C'est à dire que ce tonnerre est le résultat d'un piège? Nous n'aurons pas la surprise, hein?»

    Cleric multiclassed with Cleric

    This is a great perspective, one sadly lacking in most D&D writings about game religion. There is a "Too Many FR Gods?" thread going on right now that touches a little on this concept. In FR it seems that everyone chooses one god and one church. They might giving passing recognition to...

    Cleric multiclassed with Cleric

    My take: I figure your cleric class abilities come from your own experience and training, but you need a god's divine power to actually be able to use them. The domain powers and spells are special gifts from your patron, I figure. You should be able to carry over your experience from one...

    Module Cheating

    Achtung! Rappan Athuk 1 is really horribly designed. It was converted to 3.0 before 3.0 was even published. I ran it a couple of times and 1. it took many hours to get it to be 3.0 compliant, and 2. it was either very boring or killer hard for the players. The module is not contiguous -...

    It's time for true elementalism

    There was a 2E book that gave the details for the elemental wizard class, although I can't remember the name of the book. It gave elemental classification for 2E spells. Brekki: About the elemental archon class - the 8 rank Knowledge (nature) prereq is kind of screwy, seeing as how it's not...

    Stilled, Silent Spellcasting Provokes AoO?

    That's right - that's the reason why while casting a spell your Dex drops to 0, attackers get +4 to hit you, you are vulnerable to sneak attacks, you can't make Reflex saves, and you can be couped de grace. Come now. Casting spells and using spell-like abilities provoke AoOs. They don't...

    Stilled, Silent Spellcasting Provokes AoO?

    What causes severe balance problems? That a "component-less" spell can't be identified while it's being cast? I can't find where someone on this thread said that this was severely unbalanced. How is it realistic to identify a spell while it's being cast when the spell has no components...

    Stilled, Silent Spellcasting Provokes AoO?

    What I'm saying is that you can't, and that Tome & Blood is wrong. I don't think the core rules support Tome & Blood in this. Rather than trying to explain how it's possible to identify a spell being cast with no components, it's simpler to say that you can't. It's more consistent with the...

    Monster Levels (savage species/dragon312)

    You have to take all the monster class levels first before multiclassing. I believe this is addressed in SS.

    Stilled, Silent Spellcasting Provokes AoO?

    I've never seen the least mention in any book that that is the case. Not even Tome & Blood mentions a spell's "magical manifestation during casting." On the other hand, the Psionic Handbook explicitly describes the manifestation of powers. Your eyes don't crackle with electricity while...

    FR gods, too many?

    I think the problem is with the FR religious system, not the number of gods. In Faerûn each village and city has a limited number of shrines and temples. One is led to believe that the inhabitants of that community only worship one of the gods represented by a temple or shrine. However each...

    D&D 3.x Astral Deva 3.5

    Outsider levels are superior to PC levels IMO. Outsiders get a fighter's BAB, a monk's saves, a rogue's number of skill points, spell-like abilities, special abilities like flight, teleportation, immunities, and resistances, proficiency with all simple and martial weapons, and a good list of...
