    How to shoot 8 spells at once using only haste

    Check Magic of Faerun for the Simbul's Spell Matrix line of spells, that will increase the number quite readily....

    Divine intrigue overused...!

    Depends on how you look at "god-involvement". In my last campaign, the party made an enemy of one of the evil religions (cut one of their priestesses in half!). They ended up having to fight them occaisionally, and as a result were directly intertwined against them. I dont' consider this a...

    Why is Dragonlance Your Least Favorite Setting?

    Having just finished Dragons of a Vanished Moon (last of the War of Souls Trilogy), I was not thrilled with the ending. That said, I think I'll pass on the next DL campaign I run across that continues from where the last book left off.

    Cover other games?--- Err No

    Why Not Try It Out? A quick suggestion: You could always do a little "test" with the forums. Currently, there isn't a good area in the forum for non-d20 discussion (I don't think there is any forum actually). You could add a link on the main forum page that points to a page with a bunch of...

    Cover other games?--- Err No

    I have a question and a comment. Q: Isn't there a lot of contributed material to this site? Such as conversions, adventures, etc? At least part of what makes this such a good website is the creativity and contributions of the visitors (and everyone on the messageboards!) If people want to...

    good rules for Boccob's Book?

    I don't see a problem here whatsoever. The price to fill up a "normal" spellbook is 100 GP a page times 100 pages, so that is 10,000 GP. BBB costs 9500 GP. It is a magic item, it does not help (directly) in combat, it has an increased spell holding capacity and can accept spell on its pages...

    Does your campaign have a shop that sells magic items?

    I had *one* magic item shop in my campaign (essentially the entire continent). Every couple weeks I would roll some random treasure, and that's what the should would be selling. The most powerful item in there ever was some +2 fire resistant full plate, when the party was roughly 7th level...

    Question for DM's: Favorite Homebrewed Villain?

    My favorite villain was known simply as the Dark Wizard. Yeah, pretty bland name, but I took the "shadow magic" theme from FR and made a very small group who had discovered an "alternate" magic. His biggest weapon was the party's own fear. In two (non-combat for party) situations, he...

    2 Teleportation Circles Trap

    The description for Tele Circle is fairly vague. It says any character that "stands" on it. In the end, it's going to come down to a DM judgment call. Not sure how I would rule it at the moment.

    Regeneration Ability and Spell not useful

    Seems to be a hold over from previous editions. Also, a nice variant for those that play the game to the extent an arm becomes unusable or gets cut off. In the heat of combat, regeneration is not a great ability. Only a handful of HP a round when any individual party member could do multiple...

    Master Summoner feat

    Sounds fine to me, even for a first level character to have.

    Love, dating, and Dr. Midnight: the saga continues

    Doc Midnight's previous posts have been pretty good. Just because this one wasn't as good as some of his others, doesn't mean one should get on his case about it. Good luck in the endeavors, Doc.

    Modern d20 is coming... have you been to the new site?

    Seems to me they are doing a "class-classless" system. A "class" typically denotes a group of people (such as wizards in D&D), however the "classes" in D20 Modern are pretty generic, pretty much a classless approach and feats are used to differentiate between characters of the same class make...

    Player has a super rogue, DM needs help.

    How about putting him up against creatures/NPCs with blind fight? Or even really high listen checks in order to hear movement? Another option is to use a creature or spellcaster with blindsight, so his hiding won't help him whatsoever. I'd also recommend looking into the glitterdust spell.

    Need opinions/advice about a custom class

    Seems overly complicated and possibly overpowered. I'm all for making custom classes, however this one has a lot of abilities (uncanny dodge, evasion, Cleric BAB) in addition to spellcasting abilities, which is limited by the character's ability to "gather runes", which is dependant upon the...

    Alternative Improved Critical

    Not such a bad house rule. I like it, but probably won't use it, not really an issue. I'd allow someone to do it though (provided I get some good backstory in exchange).

    Evasion for Fortitude Saves?

    Well I was not aware of the Mettle ability. That sounds pretty similar to what I was thinking. I had imagined an ability that only dealt with damage dealing spells (as opposed to save or take damage spells). Perhaps that version is a little on the weak side, I liked the Mettle description...
