    Dice Freaks? Where'd they go?

    Heylo all, Just got back from vacation and noticed that DiceFreaks is no where to be found? I did a search of the forums, but didn't return any results. Anyone know what the scoop is with them?! Thanks

    New Server Drive - donation and prize thread (Final total: $13,310!)

    PC - Anychance we can get the distributors who are going to be sending out the emails to format them with a specific Header/subject? I ask this because I get way too much junk mail and don't want to delete "You won a prize- click here" when its actually something I want, as compared to the...

    Why are pixies so large?

    Well I can see Pixies as Both small and Tiny creatures depending on how you classify them. As D&D currently has them, I would say they are small (obviously), because they are a "race". But if you were going to make them a Species, then there could be different sizes. Got off on a related topic...

    Bilogical Tree of D&D creatures

    Ok, this sort of spawned from another thread, "Why are Pixies so large". I started a reply, but then got myself talking into the whole Biological tree if a Fae which I thought was a bit off topic, so started this topic. Then in typing of this different topic I sort of expanded beyond just Fae...

    Knowledge comes from libraries

    Yeah, I tend to over complicate things.... You are basically doing the same thing, just in your head. Some people like me like a more defined method.. :)

    Knowledge comes from libraries

    What are Books/Libraries worth in game... A library grants knowledge to specific things it contains, and possibly knowledge to related things in contains. So in game terms this would be a bonus to knowledge checks. The more organized, higher quality of books and the more focused the libraries...

    Lets determine together what the soul is, and what are its game mechanics

    I think we are on the same lines. Basically in your previous post you mentioned that a soul is reincarnated over and over until it decides. Now a player may decide during game play to "sell" his soul for some untold power. Or even the promise of power. The Demon does not immediately get the...

    Lets determine together what the soul is, and what are its game mechanics

    I'm liking this conversation and linked it from our gaming boards to hopefully get my GM/players involved as well. In Turanil's disccusion about a mortal's soul being young and being reincarnated over and over until it makes a choice as to what it wants to be is a very cool one in fact. And by...

    De-powering Comprehend Languages?

    I sort of like the idea of languages as skills. The question is what skill levels (DC) is required for specific things. The following may be a bit too much though, but just some initial thoughts. Known Language DCs: Speaking crudely - DC 5 (some barbarians may not speak well at all) Speaking -...

    Level Adjustment -1?

    Well, Wizards gives Kobolds a LA +0 and in reviewing them I think they are about right, but definitly not a full -1 LA. But If you feel that Kobolds are low, you may feel free to give them maybe a few more racial bonuses on skills or adjust their Stats slightly to even out, For example giving a...

    Fun with the Symbol spells

    I would say yes, though higher level symbols may require more space (GM call). I would state that it is Fort Save. I don't know if you can make a command word to activate the spell. The command word is to avoid activating the spell. The problems you run into are that it will effect everyone...

    New magic item: scribe's quill, thoughts?

    Nice item, but worried about the cost and productivity. First I believe there is a spell which duplicates any non-written magical text. It is a low level spell (under 5th),which a mage normally can only cast a few times a day, where as your quill is permament and copies texts quit fast. How...

    How do you organize your D&D computer files?

    By Brandobaris, not very well, and to attempt it would be neigh impossible. I almost feel like a Tinker Gnome... or maybe one of those human wizards that keeps tomes for everything... I have folders for Forms (Encounters/Scrolls/NPCs/etc) I have fodlers of images (monsters/figures/items/maps)...

    Deities and Portfolios

    When I created my campaign world, I came up with 6 gods. Having too many gods gets too confusing so I wanted to limit it. The gods I originally created are below. Though each god has worshipers of almost every alignment, the alignment afterwards represents their general focus of worshipers...

    Undersea/Flying ships, help wanted

    Spelljammer.org For the latest in Spelljammer info. The problem/difference with spelljammer and underwater campaigns is you need to worry about water getting into a ship. A regular cargo ship has pretty much an open deck where water would get into the ships holds. Gnomes are probably the best...

    Ransacking and rummaging rogue - is he evil?

    First, have to agree with LordPen above. I have played thieves in many campaigns (probably one of my more favorite toon types) and stealing never came into an issue. The paladin knew I was a thief in fact, and often yelled at me as he suspected, as he never caught me in the act. He took it in...

    Casting as a move action?

    I developed the following feats (posted on Sean Reynolds boards) (Edit: I had great input from others) It may not be exactly as your looking for, but may give you food for thought. Casting on the Run

    PrC: Elven Forest Protector

    Ok, updated and added several new abilities. Also note some abilities can be taken more than once (for different skills) which grants even more abilites. New abilities: - Ranged Sneak Attack (limited to 1/3 levels) - Skill Mastery (requires Forest Expert in appropriate Skill)

    PrC: Elven Forest Protector

    Yes, I ran out of time to think of more. I was also hoping to get ideas from others as what to add. I think it may be a little weak as well. So any other suggestions as to how to improve it will be greatly appreciated.
