Wow, i have no idea how I missed your thread before. :confused:

Starting up a new game and I have a player that wants to play a kobold. It just seems like a really...weak race though, and I'm worried he's going to be at a disadvantage compared to the other players. Does anyone have any experience playing a kobold, and would it be worthwhile to give him a...

The reflex save is certainly generous considering the Huge size. Did the BBEG get spot/listen checks to notice the orge or was he already aware of him ? I think you said the ogre took half damage right? I'd say fine and leave it at that, assuming he can survive that. (did he?) Or cap at 20d6...

A city with a powerful evil artifact that can create food and water for every inhabitant but requires a sentient humanoid sacrifice (or 5 or 10 or whatever works best) every day to work. The city has become so dependant on it that they have no other means to feed themselves, and with the empire...

Does anyone have a better explanation for this "ruling" thats better than the provided "No." ?

Remember that giving them NPC's PC wealth would 1) give your players lots of lewt, 2) probably be worth a CR bump in and of itself. My vote: a group of mid-ish lvl paladins(and since I'm assuming your PC's are evil) gratuitous use of smite evil + holy melee and ranged weapons and...

So the premise is , "do what we want or we'll kill you" ? Efreeti can simply say "Go for it. My Lord Xceecatyqqwxxo will be most displeased." If they kill him, do as below. OR Give them the first three wishes. when they boggle about how it worked, and are busy thinking up all the free stuff they...

So is the breakdown that someone with no ranks in diplomacy can't convince a 20th lvl cleric to do anything,regardless of their relationship with that character? So conversely, a king's wife couldnt convince him to do something, just because she's his wife. "What? you havent even been able to...

I guess what some ppl dont like is that there's no opposed roll. Changing the rule the least amount, would an opposed ?Sense Motive?Diplomacy? roll set to the DC of the players success roll be sufficient? Like say, player rolls a 27 on his diplomacy check, a success. Now the opposing npc makes...

Wouldnt that be covered in the King having an advisor? If the king Was just some 3bit aristocrat with no wise counsel I image he Would probably listen to a very high level PC that could concievably dethrone him right then and there. Edit: Or do you mean you dont like how there is no opposed...

101 Ways To Pass The Salt!

How does this happen, I'm not understanding ?

Havent really seen them in action much and was wondering what ppl's general opinion about them was? Good? Bad? Scales poorly?

I'd let them do it, and if you're managing the parties wealth fairly ok then it should be a problem I think. And you can always add some spice to how its done to make them think hard about doing it. F:"Hey wizard, can me make this sword magical for me?" W:"Sure. Lemme see.....I'm going to have...

I think it makes more sense if you remember that not everyone can make a +1 quarterstaff or whatever Random Magic Item X on the first try and you probably end up with some quirky items that just didnt come out right. I think I would especially do this to a player if they wanted to make a new...

Detect Evil on it. If evil, leave it and explore the rest of the rooms. If good, causiously free it, and see what happens ? Q though: illusionary tapestries? Not mundane tapestries that true seeing wouldnt help you notice? :o

I'd second vote for stripping spell-like abilites/cleric spells, and any smite ability. They dont have to be the same CR they were before, and they certainly dont need to have stuff to "make up" for being fallen. Or give them some serious troll-like++ regeneration abilites, and make them...

The Dragonlance book has as class ( sorry I cant remember what its called ) thats basically a master crafter kind of class, in that he can craft +x weapons, so if you had soemthing like that then you wouldnt have to equate low magic with no +5 longswords. But you'd probably not have many +1...

take off the trailing ), sorry.

A couple weeks?! Why, you'll be stuffed to the ears with ideas by then! So in that vein... The idea above reminds me of this http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/wdn/20060719a, but it is bit different. A problem I see is that this is just the guild giving access to necromancy spells...
