    (Un)lucky rolls and accidental comedy

    A couple of bad rolls and some good role-playing led to some good comedy. Fairly recently i was playing a cleric. We came across a unmarked potion. I decided that I would identify it with a spellcraft check. I rolled a natural 1. The DM smiled and said that it was a potion of fireball. I...

    I voted 6. I have to admit that I am torn. I am curious, but wary.

    My dad is a zombie cannibal shark god!

    Just because he is a zombie cannibal shark god doesn't make him a bad father.

    Any Good FLGSes in Kansas City?

    I will have to throw a vote in for 31st Century in Olathe. It is on the corner of 151st and Mur-Len. Well run, clean, professional store.

    The Economist's obit on Gygax

    oooo...look at me. I'm so smart. My brain isn't big enough. I read The Economist. Just kidding, I subscribe to it also. It really is a wonderful obituary.

    How often do you use traps?

    I have always had a soft spot for the rogue. Up until recently I have used traps frequently. No one wants to play a rogue in my current game so I really lightened up on the traps. I still use them (but not the killer variety) as a gentle reminder that they may need a rogue some time in the...

    Teaching New Players

    I gave the core books to my second cousin. I tried to introduce his father to the game when we were kids, but he never had the imagination for it. His son does. I voted 2, but now that I think about it, I think it should be 3. I am teaching two new players right now. I also brought an old...

    D&D 4E Post here if you ARE going to 4E!

    I will buy the first core books, but probably not much more than that. I have a bookcase full of previous editions and I do not feel like starting a second bookcase just yet.

    Never lawyers, doctors, or accountants. Always chemists, engineers/architects & IT guys.

    Point of Light

    I like them going back to the points of light idea. More wilds, less kingdoms. Too many times I would look at a map of one of he published worlds, scratch my head, and wonder, "with all of those civilized human lands, where are all the monster coming from"?

    Good prestige Classes for Druids?

    Ignore what I said earlier. Everyone else is right. Daggerspell shaper is kinda cool in its own way - but it is not nearly as powerful as just plain druid.

    Good prestige Classes for Druids?

    I have a druid in my current game that took a level or two of scout and became a pretty good daggerspell shaper. She is having a lot of fun with that class. You will miss out on a couple of spell levels for the level of scout and the 1st level of the prestige class. The wild shape abilities...

    Iuz stats?

    I sure hope that she can cook, because Iuz's girlfriend is REALLY fugly. Thanks for the ideas and the good feedback. I was trying to shy away from using old Zugg. While she is close to the power level that I was attempting to achieve, the idea lacks a little panache. I don't normally play...

    Iuz stats?

    Thank you for finding this. I know this may sound a little insane - but I thought that he would be a little weaker than that. I mean after all, he is just a demi-god. That is certainly not a pushover without a total DM fiat. I will have think this one through some more. A balor under a...

    Iuz stats?

    Thanks for the lead. It is a good start. I will attempt to locate that back issue. If I am not able to find it I do like your idea about the Balor. I quickly thought about Tharizdun but dismissed the idea very quickly. Too powerful. Iuz is just a demi-god easily captured and manipulated...
