QFT. I absolutely hate DMPCs (and by DMPC, I mean any NPC who is more awesome than the PCs and arrogantly makes us feel like pathetic losers), but I have to agree with what Transit says here. A DM has the right to run the game he wants to run. (Of course, the players have the right to not...

In my current campaign, I've asked each player to create three PCs. The PCs are merged, so they only play one at a time, but they have to track and manage all three. And to make things worse, they are each using different game systems! I usually run 2 PCs at once (usu. by cohorts), but...

That's not a bad idea. Since the torture incident, he's had bad nightmares. He still flinches away whenever the psion conjures those quori... Them things just ain't right... Ozmar the Fearful

Just a joke OK, my Dread Necromancer is still himself. Turns out it was all a joke, because I was pestering them for details about what happened after I left, so one of them told me I converted to paladin and the rest ran with it. I guess I'm pretty gullible. :heh: But all's well what end's...

Growing? Not sure. But I like to do this kind of stuff in my games, and some of the books that I have particularly enjoyed are... Stronghold Builder's Guide, for the mechanics of building and buying. Expeditious Retreat's Magical Society? (I think that was what it's called.) The first one...

Now that's totally uncool. Is the "physics" of the game world consistent? If so, then the characters ought to know what to expect - after all, they've lived in that world all their lives. Its hard enough to accurately portray a character in a fictional world, without undermining the few reliable...

That seems likely to be a clarification of what constitutes a magical weapon. In the standard D&D rules, there is nothing that gives a better than +1 enhancement bonus that is not magical. If a DM used some house rules, or some item enhancements from a Malhavoc product, he could have some...

Next session is tonight. I have my character statted out as a paladin and as a dread necromancer - just in case. Ozmar the Prepared

Good advice! :D Don't worry, I am not planning to passive-aggressively undermine my friends to get "revenge". I am sure this'll turn out to be a joke (more I think about it, more I think its likely) or I'll just run with it. Its just a character. I am really mostly interested in seeing what...

Hmmm... I suppose that might have something to do with it. I'm not really Evil, per se, although "evilish" certainly could describe him. And I did accidentally catch some party members in a misplaced Evard's Tentacles last session... :confused: But if he thinks I'm going to be any less...

Nope, I was a CN Dread Necromancer. I had skeletal dopplegangers as personal guardians and rode a chimera zombie. Half my class abilities and spells would be violations of a paladin's code. I am pretty sure that, if I still retain any Necromantic class levels, I'll be unable to use them, or will...

Oh, no no no... I never leave early. Just this once, because work needed me to get home and work at 9pm. (Been crazy at work lately. This is not normal.) And I am a bit fuzzy on the details. I've been asking for them, but so far not much. It might even be a joke, but assuming its not, I assume...

Yeah, and the small army of undead I was amassing... Ozmar the Solo Paladin

I'm pretty sure he got blasted from CN to LG. Part of the whole "I'm-a-paladin" deal. I also think some or all his Dread Necro levels converted to Paladin. I am thinking of going all the way and getting a belt of gender changing and calling myself Miko Miyazaki. :p On the plus, my Cha is...

I think what you really want to consider is what type of campaign do you want to run. Do you want to have resurrection available, even to characters of low resources (i.e., before they can cast it themselves). Do you want to have players creating new characters whenever they die? And what type...

Paladin. Totally. Its just too appropriate from an RP perspective. Also, I'd check out the Book of Exalted Deeds. (But avoid the vow of poverty - not dragonish at all!) Ozmar the LG

There are many. One in particular that springs to mind was (IIRC) in the index of Primal Order, the original Wizards of the Coast game product. I believe there were items in the index that went something like this: infinite loop: see unwary reader unwary reader: see infinite loop I'm probably...

I had a L-8 CN Dread Necromancer that I've been playing in an Age of Worms campaign for about six months. In the last game session, I had to leave early, and so (as is our custom) I handed him over to be played by another player. When asking how the rest of the session went, I was informed that...

Age of Worms campaign set in Eberron, Level 8 (mostly) Changeling Beguiler Daelkyr Halfblood Dread Necromancer Dwarf Artificer Warforged Psion/Anarchic Initiate Warforged Monk Ozmar the Dread Necromancer

Perhaps a modification is in order: If the caster selects some task or event that can remove the curse, then the curse cannot be removed by remove curse or similar spells? Makes it more powerful, sure, but also makes it more flavorful, and forces the characters to seek the story-based solution...
