    Signature Feats for Kuo-Toa

    Hmm, I do not plan to have them fight in water very often, and while I agree that sahuagin are pretty cool mobile fighters, I think the Kuo-Toa do not fit that theme. Nets are pretty cool, as would be anything to give the players the feeling the Kuo-Toa are an evil race of the cold depths... I...

    Signature Feats for Kuo-Toa

    You mean Net&Trident from Complete Warrior? I just looked that one up, and that would be pretty cool for the Weapon Master Kuo-Toa, thanks for that idea! The avarage Kuo-Toas though wont be able to quallify as it has three other feats as a prerequisite.

    Signature Feats for Kuo-Toa

    I'm currently building stuff for my campaign and what I really like to do is giving monsters some signature feats, so the players know the difference between fighting say orcs and hobgoblins. (Besides the Racial abilities) I do not plan to give those feats as bonus feats, but to replace...

    Return of the Queen of the Spiders Campaign (Work in Progress)

    I finally know how to incorporate Bhal-Hamatugn (The Kuo-Toa Shrine) The House Eilserve Drow* are hiding in a secret outpost of their house since their house fell from grace several years ago. (That outpost is Mirith Glarnon) The players have to somehow get past the Kuo-Toas, before they can...

    Return of the Queen of the Spiders Campaign (Work in Progress)

    Currently my players are hacking their way through the Hill Giant Stronghold. The CR5 Hill Giants work great, we're having a lot of fun :-) I rolled for treasure to place into the Stronhold (And to give its denizens as equipment) I will not use magical NPC equipment as stated above, but simply...

    Ravenloft: Dominion - aka Ravenloft novels outside Ravenloft

    Hehe, actually, as a halloween special, I ran a Castle Ravenloft (2nd Ed. Version) One-Shot last year using C&C :-) I created the characters and the players picked them randomly. The player that picked Reynauld Batiste (renaissance france, Rogue) made him some kind of french secret police guy...

    Ravenloft: Dominion - aka Ravenloft novels outside Ravenloft

    wow, I'm really excited. All the RL one-shots (never did a campaign) I ever played had the characters being drawn from different time periods of the real world into the setting. This sounds great... now I will cross my fingers and hope there might some day be a new sourcebook for this... oh...

    Return of the Queen of the Spiders Campaign (Work in Progress)

    Shadows of the Abyss - Rescaling Information I created weaker versions of giants by reducing their HD by 4. When comparing these new versions to the old ones, one finds that the Hill Giants are CR5, the Frost Giants are CR7 and the Fire Giants are CR8. Chapter 2: Event 1: Little Sister (EL...

    Spell-Like Abilities Template

    after a long time of research (google :-) ) I found a template that does what I was looking for. Spellpowered Creature from the Book of Templates. (great book, btw) It lets you add spells as a spell-like ability to a creature, and seems rather balanced to me. (You may add up to twice creatures...

    Spell-Like Abilities Template

    I was thinking about a template that allows me to add any spell as a spell-like ability to a creature in a balanced way. For example, adding Fire Shield 1/day and Fireball 3/day with a caster level equal to the creatures HD would raise it's CR by how much?

    Spell-Like Abilities Template

    Is there a template that allows adding spell-like abilities to creatures? I prefer the 2nd Ed. way of creating Shamans and similar stuff for Monstrous races (add a bunch of spell like abilities, call it a shaman) but I have no idea how to balance that. I think there was a template like that in...

    How do you like your Monster Manuals?

    actually, I really like MM4s classed monsters. Why? To me, Drow as shown in the MM1 are useless, unless I take the time and put some levels upon them. It is not to much work, but I tend to do a lot of winging, and thats where these Classed Monsters fit in perfectly. Last week I did a midnight...

    Against the Giants/EttDP Campaign [Minor Spoilers] (please move to Plots & places)

    I think I should have posted this in Plots&Places... maybe a mod can move the threat?

    Against the Giants/EttDP Campaign [Minor Spoilers] (please move to Plots & places)

    Hi, I recently started a new campaign, originally planned to run from level 6-12, using Shadow&Wrath of the Abyss from Dungeon Magazine #118 & #119 and the Expedition to the Demonweb Pits Adventure. I scaled the Dungeon Adventures down by 4-5 levels, by using weak giant variants (removing 4 HD...

    Industry Information Influx?

    yeah, I remember reading a lot of those chat transscripts a few years ago. (Monte Cook did quite a lot of those when starting Malhavoc, I think. As did others) That might actually be one of the best ways to renew the wotc staff/D&D community relationship...

    Interview with Scott Rouse, Chris Perkins & Bill Slavicsek

    Why? Is there anything especially bad about that payment method? I do not own a credit card (Not as common in Germany/my personal environment as in the US, as far as I know) and paypal provided me with a good method to pay for "credit card only" stuff like rpgnow pdfs...

    Interview with Scott Rouse, Chris Perkins & Bill Slavicsek

    Well, I think I will just post what I want the DI to be :-) I have never been a regular consumer of Dragon/Dungeon Mag as they are hard to get by where I live... somewhere in Germany :-) I own a lot of Dungeon Mags, but I got those by buying a whole bunch of them at a time... Basically there...

    got my Expedition to the Demonweb Pits (mild spoilers)

    Having the book for a couple of days now, here is my opinion: I love this adventure, because of its style, the idea behind it, the setting, the story, stuff like that. Execution is, as mentioned before, far from perfect. I think it is a great adventure for those DMs who are able to invest a...
