    The Worm That Walks

    LOL, Alright thanks for all the advice everybody, I think the conclusion is that the ability is crazed and over-powerful (possibly because of an oversite or miswriting) but also that that isn't exactly out of the norm for ANYTHING that is in the ELH (thankyou cloudgatherer :)). As there doesn't...

    The Worm That Walks

    Yes it does assume a spellcaster (thanks by the way for looking into this green slime :)) However to me the idea that it has to apply to a high level arcane caster seems purely a flavour issue, For example it could just as concievabley be put on a high level Druid (which I intended) or even...

    The Worm That Walks

    It's a +3CR template which is sort of the problem, there is nothing that says it MUST be applied only to an epic character though I suppose the intention was that it would be. However the CR system is still supposed to be functioning normaly and the power seems a bit beyond the +3CR to me. I was...

    The Worm That Walks

    Thankyou again for answering, your thoughts certainly help :)Alright I'm nearly convinced that it could be on the remote side of balanced :p given the powers given to half fiends and celestials. However whilst the monsterous spiders are admittedly rather feeble despite their HD there are...

    The Worm That Walks

    Thanks Maitre D. That could be something I suppose but it doesn't really fit the wording :) One thing I thought is that maybe it's supposed to be by level of Summon Nature's Ally being cast but no level is specified. PS. It couldn't summon the Vermiurge as I just noticed its an Abberation but...

    The Worm That Walks

    I was considering using this in my campaign on a major villain. However one thing I noticed in its spell like abilities is 'summon vermin' which reads... As Summon Nature's Ally except it summons 10HD of vermin per level. Is this wrong? This seems like the most powerful summoning ability I've...

    London Gameday (speculative)

    Well if there's planescape going on then I'll really try and get there, as for DMing I'm not sure I'm up to standard but I'll think about that.

    London Gameday (speculative)

    I'm interested though I haven't been to one before so I have no idea what's involved :), plus I might be a little snowed under preparing for my first year at uni, one day shouldn't be too bad though. Can I ask what's involved in a games day just so I know...

    I need a bad guy

    I'll give it some thought and maybe suggest something else later but you could consider the Dread Emperor in the Book of Vile Darkness who is sort of exactly what you are looking for :p He's a Human Wiz 10/ Diabolist 10

    Possible Epic PrC for an Alienist

    I think I might be a little late for this now but never mind :D Idea 1. How about the ability to power metamagic through creating uncontrollable pseudonatural bleed. (Like a defiler but instead of killing things everything goes a bit pseudonatural :p) or uncontrolled manifestation of...

    DC's PrC reworking thread

    This thread seems like an absolutely brilliant idea :), I agree there are so many servicable ideas in PRCs that are then never played because the actual mechanics don't work, Good for you! :D

    (OT) Help resolve a family fight re: Matrix Reloaded (spoilers)

    My understanding is pretty similar to Cedrics (it would be concerning if it wasn't :p) The One (as the focus for all the fluctuations in the programing of the matrix caused by human choice) has to choose to either return to the source where the 'sum' is resolved thus stabilising the matrix and...

    I saw the MATRIX 2 thread SPOILERS ABOUND

    I think the agents call the keymaker an 'exile' because he is a program taht ahs chosen 'exile' just as otehr finished programs do. Though I might be wrong. I thought the sound coniciding with persephone's kiss was just to emphasise taht's she's a vampire and since its teh matrix it's not blood...

    What cvhanges would you make to the base rules set to get an added anime feel?

    LOL. Not a clue really I was just freeform thinking, However in various books rules are presented for special moves in fights (Path of the Sword by I forget who :p has a section on acrobatic attacking which sort of adresses the issue). Sorry I can't be of much help, maybe every other level...

    What cvhanges would you make to the base rules set to get an added anime feel?

    Re: Re: What cvhanges would you make to the base rules set to get an added anime feel? Seconded. Possibly give people more feats too or run combat through use of different 'styles' and techniques'. I'd do that through mini-feats which are awarded faster than ordinary feats.

    Clerics, or can we do without them...

    I think that you have to ahve some form of healing. You could seriously modify the class I suppose. Take away some of the support abilities used for putting out fires and let the character make healing potions particularly quickly and cheaply (or be able to 'bless' water to make it into a...

    I saw the MATRIX 2 thread SPOILERS ABOUND

    Re: Stuff that Still Has me Wracking My Brain I think that he dreamt what we saw but that at this point he does not realise he 'has the sight' of the oracle program to see the future of the matrix. Therefore at this point he jsut thinks it's a bad, bad dream I suppose (and so is actually...

    New marilith/balor pictures

    I like them both. I say since they're supposed to embody pure chaotic evil I don't mind if all the pictures of them are variations on a theme, beings that powerful shou;d be able to somewhat shape what they look like even if they have to keep within certain parameters (e.g. a female torso on a...

    Myers-Briggs Personality breakdown of ENWorld members

    Firstly I have to say that I honestly did check boxes other than the 'i'm really in between options :p That being said...It lists my type as Visionary but my results suggest that I'm actaully divided between that and a Thinker and also between inspirer and idealist. Plus I'm nearly balanced in...
