    Calculating XP drives me crazy

    I'd agree. I've actually been allowing PCs to donate XP to the item creation process on a 1-1 basis, primarily because all of those wands of cure serious wounds really benefit them more than the cleric. You still need the cleric or wizard around with the knowledge and the power and time to...

    Calculating XP drives me crazy

    In thinking a bit more about this, the negative level penalty would have interesting in-game effects. Because any creature with negative levels equal to its positive levels is instantly slain, this would mean that 1st level creatures would never be able to be raised. 1 level + 1 negative level...

    Calculating XP drives me crazy

    I like this idea with a small twist - make negative levels something that can only be removed through a special quest/ceremony/etc. Perhaps the character comes back under the effect of a quest/geas, and only through the completion of the quest is the negative level removed. If the character...

    Unorthodox Banners 7 - Fruit

    I just saw the 17 Rogue Feats banner in rotation, and the "It's zesty!" tagline nearly made me snarf my drink. You're a bad, bad, but very amusing man.

    Thanks, Roger! The spell in question was a delay poison, actually.

    carpedavid's Land of the Crane (Updated 11 May, 2006)

    I think I'm on a biweekly updating basis now, though this one's going to be on the shorter side. Valley of the Spiders, Part 3 "Kakeru!" Fukasu yelled as she jumped back to her feet and climbed into the cart. She quickly checked for a pulse, and finding one, breathed a sigh of relief. "He's...

    carpedavid's Land of the Crane (Updated 11 May, 2006)

    Well, I'm fully caught up with where I left off the last version of the Story Hour, so updates will inevitably come more slowly. Also, bear with me as I try to regain my writing skills. It's been a while. Valley of the Spiders, Part 2 The sound of Yagi's hooves echoed like thunder though the...

    carpedavid's Land of the Crane (Updated 11 May, 2006)

    Ok, to summarize the activity that was lost in the Great Database Crash of May 2006: Land of the Crane was fully developed for the True20 system, and will be published by Green Ronin in the True20 Worlds of Adventure book this summer. As a result of converting to a new system and of the...

    Are you put off by "Creative" Campaign Settings?

    I'm not put off by non-traditional settings in the least. In fact, the setting I'm running right now, the Land of the Crane, is an asian-inspired setting. All of my players bought into it fairly quickly, and it's still going strong nearly two years later. One thing I'd recommend, though (and I...

    need some plot hooks for my campaign

    Hrmmm. Actually, I've got an adventure coming out soon (hopefully by the end of the month - my artist injured his arm, so it's been delayed temporarily) that would probably fit into your setting quite well. It's a wild-west flavored fantasy adventure (no gunpowder) that revolves around a...

    What locations would you like to see Dungeon Dive cover?

    Well, then, your wish is my command, Morrus. With development on the Diamond Gulch adventure I've been working on nearly complete, I've just begun production on Dungeon Dive 5: Eye of the Storm - a pre-populated adventure location appropriate for adventuring parties of 12th to 20th level. I'll...

    How many D&D/d20/OGL PDF's have you bought?

    No. Hence, no and no. I use mine on my destop machine at work and at home, then print out any neccessary bits to use during the game. I actually find that printing out just the parts I need dramatically reduces the pile of stuff that lays in front of me while I GM. Less stuff to flip through...

    How many D&D/d20/OGL PDF's have you bought?

    I've become more and more of a pdf purchaser over the years. As others have mentioned, only a small subset of most products that I purchase ever gets used, so pdf is actually a pretty handy way of not cluttering up my bookshelf. Plus, since I can access my home computer from work, they're a lot...

    [Amalara] Announcing two new Pick'n'Mix items.

    The "high level" designation has more to do with its scholarly value than its magical potency, but I'd peg it as appropriate for a party of 15-16th level. One could certainly scale back the spells contained within and the listed value in order to make it appropriate for lower-level groups...
