    Reviving a dead god

    Reviving a dead god

    Thanks for the awesome replies! The party is ECL 14 high magic and includes 6 players - fighter, warmage, cleric, arcane heirophant (half druid-half wizard from RotW), druid and rogue. She was killed by a previous adventuring party run by some of the current players under another DM around 30...

    Reviving a dead god

    Anyone have any advice for running an adventure in 3.5 for the PC's to revive a dead Lolth who was slain by a previous adventuring group? My campaign has self-baked a legitimate reason for a party of mostly neutral/goodish characters to want Lolth alive again. I'd be interested in any ideas you...

    A Loser Is Yuo

    The players in my gaming group are notorious for getting wrankled by even the slightest perceived loss, so I'm interested to see what other people comment on this. As a player I hate making a new PC every week in deadly games, especially if that kind of campaign was not discussed before hand...

    I like this idea :)

    Item- Portable Workshop?

    Actually I doubt that shrinking a shed would be the same as shrinking a solid block of metal shaped like a shed like you're suggesting. The volume of the actual shed item is far less than the volume of space contained within it's walls. That being the case it's still arguable whether enough...

    Using Shrink Item to affect undead?

    The spell description says it affects objects, and allows a will save instead of Fort. So could a wizard use it offensively against undead? I imagine a wizard using the Heighten Spell feat to make it a tough Will save or the undead gets made into a handy patch for his robes for a few days or...

    Item- Portable Workshop?

    You could use the Shrink Item spell. If your workshop is a small, free standing structure, like a tool shed, a reasonably low level wizard could shrink it. A 10th level wizard could shrink a 20 cubic foot "workshop" shed to a patch of cloth about 16 inches wide, fold it up and put it in his...

    Sorcerer/Bard bonus spells for buffs?

    The spell in question is actually Siren's Grace from the Spell Compendium, which inconveniently doesn't say that casters don't gain bonus spells like Eagle's Splendor does.

    Sorcerer/Bard bonus spells for buffs?

    One of my players is a bard. He cast a Charisma buff on himself and declared that he could now cast more spells because he gets more bonus spell slots for his new, temporary higher charisma. Now the Sorcerer in the party wants to take a Charisma buff to keep giving himself and the bard...

    GenCon Attendance Sets Record with 41,000 attendees!

    I can say that the comments about the amped up energy of Indianapolis in general and of the hospitality industry in particular are dead right. I go to a lot of conventions all over the USA for business, and Gen Con has more positive atmosphere than any other con, on the level up there with...

    The RPG Kickstarters Which Break The Bank: Fame Pays

    The question on 100's of thousands of rpg gamer's minds is "when will he start making full sets?" All 7 dice: d4, d6, d8, d10, d12, d20 and d% (with 00 - 90). You'd sell tons upon tons of those at conventions like Gen Con. Free advice for ya :)

    Anitomical Damage?

    The problem with any called shot system is that players will almost always go for the head. I played in a game of Riddle of Steel once where this guy with a rapier always went for the eyes... he twinked his character so much that he couldn't miss. Any enemy he went up against - from light and...

    Is smite damage affected by DR?

    Speaking of paladin or half-fiend smite abilities. Assuming the weapon used and the creature it's being used on would nornally allow DR, would the smite damage be affected by the DR like the weapon damage is?

    Review of Kobold Quarterly Issue #21 (Spring 2012) by Open Design

    I'm a 3.x DM and couldn't care less about 4E, and I find TONS of good ideas in KQ. Easily among the best FRPG rags in history.

    The power of a curse

    Agree then. A player could make the ring different from the exact wording of Alter Self though. Many magic items just use the spell as a basis for the effect like the ring of xray vision.

    The power of a curse

    I'm not sure why Sekhmet and Greenfield seem to have a bad case of "selective attention disorder" whenever they read my posts, but don't overlook the rest of what I posted that specifically eliminates all of the arguments against this item, both as a nice magic item and as a nasty curse. Can a...
