    What is a 'God' in D&D?

    Hunter has this completely right – it depends on the world. However that may not be that helpful to you, so I’ll tell you what the gods are in my world. For my homebrew I came to the same conclusion as you – the pantheon/cosmology defines the world. If the gods actually created the world then...

    Our First Game -- What some non-RPG fans Learned that they want to share!

    On magic item uses... I'm not sure how to handle this best. Afterall tracking of these could get complicated between gaining them, using them, and idetifying which items have been used. If Action Point markers are removed from the mat when spent (which was my assumption) then the tally between...

    Our First Game -- What some non-RPG fans Learned that they want to share!

    Porter - love the additions you've made - hope you don't mind that I used a few of your ideas on my latest version. JPG attached - I can't get the pdf small enough to attach even in a zip file. However if anyone wants it drop me a line with your email address and I'll send it.

    Our First Game -- What some non-RPG fans Learned that they want to share!

    Bodhiwolff Always willing to listen to the suggestions# On the boxes - for stats I was thinking of actually putting in both stat and modifier. I know this is a change from your base design but didn't think it would take up much room, and some people might like to see it. For skills I was...

    Our First Game -- What some non-RPG fans Learned that they want to share!

    EDIT - NEW VERSION ON PAGE 2 Bodhiwolff - I love your idea. And in exchange for allowing all of us to steal it from you I thought I'd have a go at doing it up a bit. I rearranged the components a bit hope you like it. If anyone has any suggestions for improvements let me know. Not going to...

    Combat Challenge & Bulettes At-Will power.

    Not really an expert on the 4E rules yet, but I think this is fairly clear. By the text in the OP (no books on me at the mo) it says that the move is "as a free action". To me that makes it not part of the bite action it's a free action the bulette has the option of using prior to the attack...

    Stopping the "extended rest after every encounter"

    Fair enough - if you think it's necessary then go ahead I'm not stopping you... but I'm still not going to promote it. The separation of daily and encounter powers clearly sets up the idea that there should be multiple encounters per day - otherwise there is no need to distinguish between...

    Stopping the "extended rest after every encounter"

    Fair enough - then consider this one: D&D is a group game, for the enjoyment of all... that includes the DM. Make it clear to them that their approach is affecting/ruining (your choice of word here obviously) your enjoyment of the game. Ask them to change their methods to help improve your...

    Stopping the "extended rest after every encounter"

    I will only endorse one solution to this - in-game consequences. OK it might be difficult to ambush them in the city - just repeat the ambush. Unlike a computer game you can replenish the 'outer level guards' with new ones. Make it clear that they're not actually getting anywhere with their...

    Warlock with Paladin Multiclass Feat grouped with Warrior

    I'll let others comment on the rules-legality of it. I think though that as a DM I would say that this goes against the spirit of the divine challenge. This is no longer just a warlock - he's a warlock-paladin. As such he needs to stand up to his god's standard as a champion of his cause. My...

    Points of Light: Locations

    Only the basic outline, and in need of a proper name but here's my first fairly mundane POL Riverport A Baron's Keep just downstream of the fork where two rivers join into a large river. Upstream the rivers continue to split, covering a wide area of the land. Downstream they flow toward the...

    Goblin Picador

    Agreed, would be a nice touch. However I'd say that the harpoonee should not get the same effect as the harpooner. On a narrative basis - the harpoonee is pulling the harpooner around based on something that's sticking in him - that's going to hurt, so he's probably not pulling as hard. Plus...

    Cleric powers speculation. No more domains?

    If clerics of different deities do lack any real distinct flavour in terms of actual abilities (powers, prayers, rituals, dodads, whatever) then I'm going to be very disappointed. Real differentiation between characters that should be as different as chalk and cheese is something I think is...

    Tieflings

    I'm going to agree with Jurgen on this. As a german speaker Tiefling just falls perfectly into place, I always thought it was a nice touch that the word wasn't just made up but had a connotation to it. OK it helped that I was in the club that understood the connotation. I also think that it...

    Move a monster into another

    Also with that house rule you may want to say that the total amount of movement possible is applied across all creatures. I.e. shove someone back one square and you can't move another creature at all - because that would require a total of 2 squares of movement. Shove someone back two squares...

    Abstract HP

    But that blow that reflected off your shield can just as easily given you a dead-arm for a second. A moment's respite, a word of inspiration form your leader, or even just the mage rubbing the feeling back into it is enough to get it back. If HP is about 'survivability now' then it doesn't...
