    Help me flesh out this campaign beginning

    My first suggestion for the campaign is to think about what kind of theme you want for your game. It could be "overcoming fear" (see below), it could be "evil is returning" or perhaps "power has its price." Along similar lines, is this going to be a D&D horror campaign in which every victory...

    Looking for a Weather Generator Program

    Mage Armor question

    I think I would make it a +2 bonus like any shield and I like the shorter duration. Or maybe make it a 2nd level spell with 1hour/level. Why does it have an armor check penalty but no arcane spell failure chance? The two seem to go hand in hand to me...

    Toughness Variant

    I like the 1Hp/level variant. What do you think that does to balance? (My players hate toughness but like the save feats. +2 is much more significant on a save than 3 hp)

    What do Dwarves eat?

    In my campaign, the player characters just arrived iin the Dwarvenhome, a huge hollowed out mountain that serves as a colossal fortress and kingdom for the dwarves. One of my players brought up the problem of how the dwarves feed themselves. I thought of lots of mushrooms, and hardy crops on...

    What do you like most in a story hour?

    I think I like everything too, but Pirate Cat's good writing is what draws me to it. I am determined to write the Legacy of Alexander story in a more literary way now. It could be a good way to make the world come alive for me and my players too!

    DoctorB's Legacy of Alexander Story Hour

    Its true that Galena is a specialist in extra-planar creatures (something that is only possible in the erudite Tower) and speaks all the relevant languages. I am also pretty lenient in how I allow her to command summoned creatures. I assume that if she is in shouting distance, she can direct...
