    Necromantic spells banned

    -The kelemvor cleric has some sort of leverage he's using to force the mage guild to do as he says( secret affair, stolen artifact, whatever). -The kelemvor cleric has been granted powers by his god to restrict the casting of necromatic spells in town and surrounding area, and so if the mages...

    48-point buy

    When I had posted about starting a 40 point buy Ptolus game here(http://enworld.cyberstreet.com/showthread.php?t=175971) , Shilsen's suggestion(at the end) seemed pretty reasonable. I unfortunately havent started that campaign yet to see how it works out for my group.

    Editable Character sheets for homebrew/house rule heavy games, where to find?

    :lol: :lol: Maybe we can threadjack this into a "If you're going to eat your character sheet when your character dies, what kind of paper is the best?" hehee. My vote: no cardstock :eek:

    Editable Character sheets for homebrew/house rule heavy games, where to find?

    That doc looks cool ( unfortunately right now I'm in linux at work and thus only have openoffice to look at it.) I'll try and edit it and see if I can finangle(sp?) it to what I need, but me and word havent been speaking lately. :heh:

    Editable Character sheets for homebrew/house rule heavy games, where to find?

    I'm fixing to start a Ptolus game up soon and have changed a fair bit of the skills such that a normal 3.5 d20 character sheet won't work well, and was wanting a character sheet for my players where I could edit the skill list to match my house rules(and not have to write in all the skills...

    Str penalties and longbows, a simple question

    Sorry if I misspoke, my meaning was a Str of 4(I think thats right?) ( and thus, -3 penalty/bonus/proper-syntax-here) but relevant to any str less than 10. :)

    Str penalties and longbows, a simple question

    If I have a str penalty(say -3 for this exercise), what parts of my attack with a normal longbow(not composite) are affected? A) Just the damage roll. B) The attack And damage roll. C) Just the attack roll. D) None of the above / Other. Ok then, same question, but with a composite longbow. ?

    Rogue survival in the land of the unliving. Looking for advice...

    Spell Compendium Not sure where the spell originated Spark of Life (Necro, Cleric 3/ Druid 4) casting: 1 standard action range: touch target: 1 undead touched duration: 1 round/level will negates, SR yes. Maybe if you had it in something that was like x times per day it would help?

    Challenges in a 'celestial' dungeon

    Any reason it can't just be infested with random magical beasts / animals ? Maybe a nest of Bulette's or some phase spiders or soemthing.

    Is Ptolus living up to the hype?

    I believe thats, through you as a DM, imparting that info to your players. How do players learn about things in any homebrew or other game they don't have a book for? Brief writeup and learn about the rest as they play. I believe there are a few chapters other than the Players Guide that players...

    Fascinate Overpowered? A Question on Initiative

    I dont think initiative should have been called. I would have done something like "The shopkeeper begins casting a spell. You can roll spellcraft to tell what it is."

    Is Ptolus living up to the hype?

I like it very much, I'm about to start two campaigns set it in soon. The only problem with it I have is that its...

    Called Shots?

    I forget now since its been awhile what we did exactly for each specific area, but for shots to the head I think it was soemthing like if it was enough dmg then it invoked the massive dmg save vs death kind of thing. Which really, if you took say 15-20 points of dmg, TO THE HEAD, you've got a...

    Called Shots?

    DMG pg 27 has a variant rule on dmg to specific areas. In a game I used to play in we had called shot rules that multiplied the AC depending on the size of the part that you wanted to hit. ( I think i've posted about this before.) IIRC a heat shot was like 2x AC, and other parts in between 1x...
