    The problem of saves.

    Was the call that infrequent???? I was under the impression that it was a daily/everyother day thing. For example in the first book, when they are building the railroad, they had to plan for it each day.

    The problem of saves.

    Having also read the books - it is important to understand that the call is more of a force of nature - not quite as predictable as sunrise, but pretty close. It is certainly not something like a whale deciding that it is hungry and sending out the call. Takyris, assuming that the PC...

    Raise Dead Questions?

    Surrounding the "cost" of the diamond. While it is certainly true local and global supply and demand will affect the actual gold piece cost of the diamond - we need to look at what this cost actually means. Does it literally mean a 500gp diamond? In that case, yes it is possible that local...

    Raise Dead Questions?

    Except that you still have to come up with that 500gp diamond - so only the most "beloved" of followers are going to get a second chance making the population issue pretty much a non-issue.

    Why Psions?

    Dispel Magic workon Psionics if you are using the default world view of Psionic and Magic is the same. By the same token, the psionics powers of dispel psionics work against magic. Further, you would challenge a psionic warrior the same way that you would challenge a fighter. IIRC they have...

    Apparently adventurer WAS a profession

    I think that a pirate that is working for a country is a privateer (IIRC) Both the English and the Dutch were (in)famous for using them to prey on the Spanish. In fact the Dutch were so successful at it that they used the proceeds from the privateering to fund thier rebellion against the Spanish.

    Time to Brag - We whupped the main villain 13 levels too soon!

    First and foremost, congratulation for taking him out. I do not think people are naysaying you. They are questioing how a 20th level fighter got himself in this position. As far as AC Goes. I would assume that a 20th level fighter would have the following (assume that he is a 2 handed weapon...
