There's something from...Libris Mortis? Something like that. Some creepy thing, DR 10/lawful.

well, the hook is to get a certain note into their hands, that points them to a certain tavern. It is reasonable to get this note, or a close variation, into their hands in Sigil.

It does need to be a place where the party can chat with fiends and walk across town and chat with celestials. That pretty much sums up the first quest. The party basically walks along a branch of Yggdrasil that pokes into Sigil. This takes them to Ysgard. No plane shift required. I don't...

Pardon me; we clearly have different styles. My son will not sleep with other people in the house. So it's gotta be daytime with him. As I wrote in an earlier post, my friend with a toddler plays night games. It seems to be a function of age.

You are neither ranting nor droning. I said above that I have read only 15% of the adventure, so we are bound to have different takes. I just don't have time to tear through this thing and find the problems yet. In case no one noticed, there's an interview with Baur/Kestrel about this on...

No, actually. Again, it's a plot twist. You get "envoys," of a sort, for Lolth, Kostchtchie(sp?), and Pazuzu. Unless I missed something, I didn't find a whole lot to do with Orcus. He is integral to the plot, in that the other major players are plotting around him. It's not, really. It's...

The Dread Necromancer gets an undead familiar.

whew I am tired Today is my son's six-month birthday, which doesn't mean that we've been partying hard, but means that my god I haven't slept through the night in half a year. My perpetual fatigue is why I've only been able to read about 15% of the book so far. A year ago I would have been...

Well, I haven't had the chance to read very much yet, but the main idea is that you have to somehow get the party to Sigil. If the party ignores the elephant in the room, you eventually have to use the church of Corellon Larethian to beg them to get their asses to Sigil. They meet a mysterious...

Graz'zt is conniving. Drow are mean. What more do you need to know, really? Since I'm currently running my party through the Harrowing, I'm a tad sick of demons and drow, so I won't go into too much detail here. I will tell you what the book touts: "224 pages, 50 major encounters, 14 new...

Dear Firebeetle: At first I was aghast, and then I noticed that you were "...abandoned in the wilds of Colorado were I was raised by a clan of dancing bears who had escaped from the zoo. I currently live in Missouri, where I still fail to get taken seriously." whew! You almost had me there...

You get 5HD / level of undead under your control. 4HD of those come from animate dead. The other 1HD comes from commanding undead, whether those are some random zombies in the dungeon, or that nasty new ghoul you just made with create undead. You still have to make a rebuke check to try to...

You guys are crazy. Taking Craft Magic Arms and Armor for wild armor alone is worth it.

We just leave the baby in the car, turn on the radio, leave the window open a crack. I am the DM; wife is a player. Our group's schedule has been painfully restricted these last few months. We have played um, three? times since the birth of our six-month-old NPC. We are playing again this...

Think of it as a feature (not a bug) of dispel magic. You are automatically going after the richest caster level. This also works for game balance: otherwise everyone would drink a weak-ass potion going into combat as "dispelling fodder." I run it like Hong does, but I also find other ways of...

In one of Monte Cook's adventures, there is a throne where if anyone other than the throne's owner touches it, the throne curses the toucher and places an arcane mark upon that person. The curse: -4 on saves vs spells or spell-like abilities cast by the owner of the throne. When the owner...

The druid in my campaign loves her sudden stalagmite, and the cleric is never without his wand of resurgence. The wizard throws around empowered orbs of force like they're candy.

Model the neogi after Star Trek's ferrengi.
