    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour (Updated 29 Jan 2014)

    The dragon was quite large (though not Wyrm size) but few things CR 10-14 can survive 8d6 + 68 (the damage I did on a crit, its up to 12d6 + 92). Mercurial Greatswords are weapons to kill just about anything (we face a lot of undead, elementals, and constructs)

    How would you prep as a 14th level party to storm the bbeg castle?

    The trick with this is not so much the lack of divinations or teleports, but the "hostages" that are the problem. However if this can be over come with some planning and some basic logic. 1. The villian is most likely going to keep the children in a secure location very close to him. The...

    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour (Updated 29 Jan 2014)

    ooc: Working from memory as I don't know what happened to my Warriors of Heaven. They are a race of psuedo-constructs created by the guardinals, possible as warriors or servants ages ago. They are chaotic but powerfully good-aligned. They are intelligent but lack much in the way of social or...

    DnD (in-game) Jokes -- Bring em on.

    Here is a couple born out of my ability to sense evil and a certain NPC (Shemeska) "I sense extreme aura of bulls$$$" (To our Mage after she had left) "Ok we need a detect b**** spell, so we know she is coming." (After an unwelcome offer is made) "I'm immune to disease and even I'm not going...

    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour (Updated 29 Jan 2014)

    Nope, I started that after I first began to level. A little point of interest on my origins. Half Human, Half Quasar. As to how that happened well, thats a story for another time.

    DM/Players: How do you handle "hopeless" campaign settings...

    As a DM, I tend to soften most of the hopeless scenarios. Especially ones that try to negate or diminish the effect of the pc on a scenario. As others have mentioned, ignoring/altering mage revised is in example. Messing with the spirit of COC was another (COC supers). I am a humanist, and...

    Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour (Updated 29 Jan 2014)

    Only standard Ressurrection is limited in that fashion. It seems that an evil diety would see the value of a forced ressurection, especially on people going to a reward. Besides, in character Toras doesn't know metaphysics, he is a well learned fighter with some knowledge of clerical magics...

    Indeed, some might find my vocabulary crude, but I rather consider it accurate. But some of the comments are going to be censored.

    What is 3.0 & 3.5 missing that previous editions had?

    1. Planescape (But Planewalker is working on that.) 2. Spell Jammer 3. Psionics that while broken 5 ways to sunday, were not just spells said different. 4. Dark Sun 5. A suck Skill system. 6. Barely discernable loops of non-linear math, only surpassed in complexity by a Gordian Knot or any...

    << PLANESCAPE >> How do you defeat the Lady of Pain?

    Its not honestly that I am a Lady Fan boy, as I am usually the first go for the throat of Unstoppable Beings on general principal. The Lady exists to enforce a neutral zone, on place in all the multiverse were all beings are essentially free of the massive external forces that could normally...

    All pc's are evil and I am the DM (Need Help please)!!!!!

    Ah, Evil. The obvious answer to this is a campaign centered around organized crime (its fun to be a good fella), and it affords you a chance to have a group of fairly loyal support structure. -Many good references in points have been made but one hasn't been mentioned. Blood War Mercenaries...

    D&D Armageddon - Blood Wars End, Sigil Falls to Seige

    Questions for you Paka, as this is your thread, I understand that the Fiends are united, but what about the otherside? Did this come as a shock, catching many off guard? Are the Yugoloths involved or did the united demon/devil armies kill them first for the betrayals? What are the good races...

    << PLANESCAPE >> How do you defeat the Lady of Pain?

    Why do I like Planescape? Because it provides the ultimate big pond for adventurers. Its were those who grown to strong on the prime go to find a challenge and do something big. You can meet with your deity, talk to angelic beings, and fight fiends. Combine this with rich history, and an even...

    Tactical Advice for a high-level fight

    This won't be an easy fight for any of the NPC's, but with some prep this can be tough for the party as well. Your Assassins are outnumbered, (not accounting the souls), and decidingly lacking in terms of spell casting, and such. So a frontal assault or a direct fight out would be a bad idea...

    D&D Armageddon - Blood Wars End, Sigil Falls to Seige

    Yes, there is the fact that the Lady has absolute control over Sigilian portals, and no one else has ever been able to rest that from her. Thats what got Aoskar killed. But beyond that, saying the Abyss is infinite is meaningless. You would need infinite time and resources to marshall an...

    D&D Armageddon - Blood Wars End, Sigil Falls to Seige

    Sigil can fall, if you remove the Lady from the equation. 1.But what I contend is due to the fact that only the Lady is able to alter Sigils portals, they would be unsealable in her abscene. Given that fact, no occupying force would be able to hold the city proper. Attacks can come from all...

    D&D Armageddon - Blood Wars End, Sigil Falls to Seige

    The Baernoloths, though not included in the BOVD, are equivalent. One of their number fell and became God of the Gerelths. They are radically powerful and each possess interesting abilities. They are detailed in several Planescape suppliments, and likely will be detailed in the conversion effort.

    D&D Armageddon - Blood Wars End, Sigil Falls to Seige

    Love the idea of Armaggedon, simply because it does open so many possibilities, and can make for some interesting massive battles. The scenery in a full, all out war across the multiverse seems quiet intreging. The Sigil element is something I personally don't agree with. I don't claim to be...

    Plane Misadventures

    Thought you would get a kick out of this. I uncovered the quote a couple of days ago and I realize this story went untold. This occured early in Shemeska's Planescape game. To make this make sense, we are using the 4d6 method of char gen. Our group had been forced to enter one of Her dread...
