Type-O Demon Fun I've used the book a good bit the past two sessions. First, a party member was killed by a trapper that had made a home in the local inn. After they raised him, the party went to an inn in the next town (which proudly posted a sign that declared itself "Trapper free for the the...

Thanks for the help. Do you know if any of those creatures have been converted for 3e? If so, where can I find them? In the meantime, now that I know where to look, I can try to hunt down the originals and perhaps work up my own conversions. Thanks again.

I must admit that my only exposure to pre-3e D&D was a few games back in high school. Still, I fondly remember some of the more fun (some, say silly) monsters from past editions and seek to add some lost gems to my old games. Thanks to the Tome of Horrors, piercers, trappers, and a few others...

Well, I thank the Sage for his rapid response and I am pleased that we have arrived at the same conclusions. Thanks again.

I started a new campaign the other day (my first one fizzled after I injured my leg and was out of commission for a few months). I started the players off in Durrover and was wondering what specific language, if any, is predominant in Durrover. I realize that "common" is Ledean, but what do...

Thanks for the kind words. I am still putting the finishing touches on my bar exam/legal inspired adventure. Now, if I can just decide how best to publish it... Unfortunately, I was forced to take a few month hiatus. I was injured during (of all things) an improv comedy performance in October...

With a nick like mine, how can I not chime in? I am ALL for a new B5 game by, well, anyone. If Mongoose has the license, then that is the best news I have heard since the premier of the Legend of the Rangers (not that there has been much, er any, good news since). I hope that it touches on the...

I haven't spoken up until now, but I should be available to fill in a spot if there's still room. I am up for any weekend date in January or February that is not 1/18 or 2/22. I live here in Pittsburg, but I've been meaning to check out the Sacramento gaming scene. I just found out I passed the...

Here are three of my most recent "mistakes" (all from the same campaign). 1. I had an NPC become possessed by a ghost. Not knowing what they were facing, when the NPC started acting weird they cast charm on him... and it worked. You see, I forgot the whole mind-effecting immunity thing for...

The aforementioned Draconic Lore from FFG also has a race of humanoid dragons called the Dragoth that can be played as a PC race, in addition to some nifty dragons.

A Wooly Dragon.

Thank you both!

Thanks for the tip on crit immunity, Knight Otu. Can you provide any further insight on how the +1 ECL was obtained? I re-examined my approach and came up with a +2.3 ECL, which rounds down to +2 ECL. I assumed a +.2 for "immune to a handful of spells" and considered that plants are immune to...

This may be the wrong forum for this question (if so, please forgive me). I was wondering if anyone had any ideas as to the ECLs of a few creatures out of MMII. In particular, I was wondering about Myconids and Needlefolk (I'm toying with a few ideas for one shots or short campaigns involving...

I understand what you are saying about unintelligent monsters not having skills. That makes sense to me. However, under the formula as it stands, an unintelligent undead still receives skill points if they have extra hit dice. The (2 x EHD) is added to the Int multiplier. Skeletons and...

I've got a question and I thought I'd run it by all of you experts here. I was reading MM2 and I noticed on page 10, that an undead gets skills equal to (3 x Int SCORE) + (2 x EHD). Is this correct or should it be Int bonus. If I have two medium-sized undead, one with 1HD and an Int score of...

Thanks for all of the help. I've decided to keep psionics exactly as presented in RR II. The half-orc psychic warrior in the party received his powers when a mumbling wizard wandered into the tribe, speaking some unintelligible gibberish (the Slarecian language virus). Soon everyone was...

Well, I still have some distance to go with the adventure until I am completely pleased with it, plus it is so much fun to write that I am afraid that I may never want to complete it. I hope to have it finished within a month or two. In the meantime, I have some fun freelance assignments...

I'm a lawyer, too. I currently live in the Bay Area and I'm awaiting the CA bar results, but I have been licensed in PA since 1999 (my wife got a job out here that was simply too great to pass up). I spent my summer studying for the CA bar and now I am sending out resumes to temp agencies...
