Affect Normal Fires! :D

It's not too unbalancing in and of itself. It has about the same effects on play as a higher point-buy total, except not so front-loaded. You may want to give out slightly less magical gear to compensate for the increased stat bonuses at high level, but other than that, I wouldn't worry about...

Baldur's Gate 2 has a "Skald" bard kit, but this has nothing in common with it other than the name.

I decided to strip out the spellcasting from bards in my Burning Wheel->D&D3e campaign conversion; for various reasons, Wizards are the only spellcasters in the setting. And with an existing spell-less musician PC, I need to get a full rewrite done before the first session. :D The game is...

In the Aquerra setting, characters die when they drop to a negative hit point total of 10 + half their maximum hit points. So a character with, say, 36 hit points dies at -28.

Last time I seriously worked on a D&D campaign, I scrapped Clerics and Druids, and used the Sorcerer as the basis for divine casters. Priests had d4 hit points and a Sorcerer's BAB, saves, spells known and spells per day, but with a Cleric's skill list, domains and undead turning ability...

I'd take the quiz, but I don't think that would be entirely fair. :cool:

I have to say that I got to play your character in a few combats after you left the game, and he was scarily effective. And that was primarily against undead, where his Sneak Attack didn't come into play. - Eric

Wasn't Piratecat gonna post a .doc file containing a full list of the treasure found in the White Kingdom? I think he mentioned it about 15 months ago... :eek:

Are you serious? It may take us 6 to 10 sessions just to get to, you know, that place. Are you expecting things to go really quickly there, or are you just anticipating our short life expectancy? ;)

I don't even want to remember that one. Ew.

Aaaaand... you're saying that D&D adventurers and adventuring parties lack the necessary force of arms?

From this, you'd almost think that Michelangelo and Da Vinci deposited all of their works directly at the local museum, while solemnly refusing to accept any monetary recompense for their efforts...

And as others have taken pains to point out, we're not talking about magic shops, we're talking about buying and selling magic items. Not the same thing at all. - Eric

It's more likely to have been a typo. 21 -> 11... an easy slip. - Eric

You already have a solid range of direct damage spells (I assume that Dragon Breath is direct damage), so there's little need to take Scorching Ray. Web is an excellent choice for your 2nd level spell; you could use some area attacks, and its ability to help take live prisoners could come in...

Not much... just the pregenerated Classic characters in the Crash Priority supplement for Paranoia XP. (Also some minor snippets of text in the XP corebook and the Traitor's Manual supplement, but those are too small to be concerned with.) - Eric Minton

I had to remove the Roman war goddess Bellona from a campaign world because the players kept singing the Oscar Meyer jingle whenever she was mentioned.

It's really hard to suggest spells when we don't know what spells you actually have in your spellbooks. But if I'm going to throw out some random spell choices: * Slow is almost always useful against medium-sized groups of monsters. * Monster Summoning IV for a lantern archon. Have it pile on...
