Below is my homebrew music domain. Music Domain Granted Power: Perfom is a class skill, and you receive a +2 divine bonus with it. Also, if you possess at least 3 ranks in Perform, you may inspire courage once per day and countersong once per day, as a bard. Music Domain Spells 1. Hypnotism 2...

Here's another take on the concept Here's another take on the concept I wrote up a while ago...

Another thumbs up for GURPS: Egypt. I've gotta disagree about Necropolis. Its got some good ideas (and some bad ideas), but it was too obviously converted into d20, so the mechanics and power-levels tend to be somewhat "off." You might also be interested in the following threads...

Please, please, please.

Any news on 3.5 edition compatible modules? In my group, we like to play but nobody has time to come up with adventures on their own. I'd be especially interested in RTTTOEE-style mega-modules.

I'd give them a DC20-25 spot check to notice that the skeletons have glowing red eye sockets (per the description in the MM). If they fail, skeletons get a suprise round.

Lump me in with Warlord, but I just have to say who cares? I just don't understand why people on these boards seem so intent on questioning the motives of both WOTC, Monte and all the other game designers out there. I could care less whether Monte uses the proceeds of Arcana Unearthed to donate...

Life's too short to worry about wear and tear on books.

Uh, two-handed weapon and (animated) shield.

Re: Re: Wealth Mechanic Well its a combination of a price list and a somewhat streamlined magic item creation method. Making up Wealth DCs for nonmagical equipment is pretty easy, especially because you can group lots of stuff together rather than having to list every single item. For magical...

Wealth Mechanic You may want to consider a wealth mechanic, where characters have a "wealth bonus" and roll (or take 10) against the DC of the item they want to acquire. d20 Modern uses this mechanic. I have a so-far unimplemented version for my next campaign, which I've excerpted below...

huh? huh?

Seasong- I use a Priest class that is almost identical to the one you have here, i.e. d6 HD, 4+Int skill points, Poor BAB, Good Will save, Poor Ref and Fort save, bonus feats at levels 5, 10, 15, 20. Here are the interesting bits: I, too, allow spontaneous casting of domain spells. Priests can...

House Rule Following are house rules re languages for a campaign set in mythological Greece. Designed to simulate varying levels of fluency, but still allow people to pick up languages fairly easily. Note that unlike standard D&D, it is quite easy to be illiterate under these rules. Speak...

Interesting. THe post-count will tell you who is a real lurker and who is a pseudo-lurker.

Some of the posters here have already said this in slightly different terms, but the answer is really quite simple. Long-lived elf adventurers are not generally higher-level than human adventures because VERY VERY FEW adventurers die of old age. For both elves and humans there is an almost...

Oni- I agree with your sentiments, but I'm not sure there is a better way to implement multi-classing that makes some of these combinations powerful enough to be viable, but doesn't require a virtual rewrite of the class/level/xp system in 3e. Remember that backwards compatibility was a design...

Spartan Prists Spartan armies, like other Greek armies of the time, had attached priests to perform pre-battle divinations and sacrifices. If the signs wern't ausipicious, they may not fight. PS. I made shortspears a 1-handed martial weapon, but 2-handed simple weapon; rather like the bastard...

I'm considering changing trip attacks into opposed Dex rolls (including armor check penalties) instead of opposed Str rolls. I have two reasons. First, opposed Dex just seems more cinematically appropriate. Tripping should be done by the quick and smart against the lumbering hulks. Second, as...

GP Value of Mystic Theurege I whipped up a little excel spreadsheet showing the GP value of the scrolls equal to the spellcasting ability of a Mystic Theurage vs an equivalent level wizard. My methodology. I calculated the value of a scroll of the caster's level for each spell of each...
