Hmmm, so there was required reading to jot down a thought or two?

Historically, slavery was mostly people captured during war. Even the Greeks had slavery. Being a slave was not always the bottom rung of society though. Greek slaves could become respected and honored. Slavery as a punishment for crimes is also a big theme on slavery. "You killed him, you must...

When someone gains or loses Constitution. Even in the middle of battle (as it usually happens). It is dealt with immediately, hp, saves, and if a spellcaster Concentration mod. Someone that gains Intelligence, if not a Wizard; gains +1 Int and the skill mods if applicable. If it is not at level...

Suppose Intelligence only supplies a bonus, too. And upon changing your intelligence permanently, the bonus changes, just like for your description of Constitution. Because I do believe you would use this same description if the Con gain were from a book. [A metagame description]...

How about Whisper and Sigh?

Eric, This should be the last of the minor lords. I'll make the list and send it presently. I have identified one of the unknowns on the list, a merchant of some repute. Unfortunately he has left the capitol on a ship bound for the island nations. I assigned good people to track him down and...

Welcome Everyone!

It all depends on the campaign. A one-shot is a simple campaign. Sometimes it is necessary to limit choices: one of my campaigns centered around a magic university in the middle of the wilderness. Every player must be a specialist mage, no two could be the same specialist type. Only basic races...

Had not thought of roc. It is totally appropriate. I have amended the above post to reflect that.

Eric, Another minor lord supplied these recipes. This would all go more quickly if I could assign several competent persons to speed these negotiations up; but you insisted that I handle each personally. I will continue to do so, but did I mention that they were competent? Anyway, to hand we...

Eric, We found the errant wizard, trying to leave the county. He had nearly half the book on him as the fence promised. He readily agreed to hand over the ill-gotten pages if only he could have copies of one or two of them. I told him no. The fact that he wasn't being sold into slavery to atone...

Eric, The aforementioned incarcerated fence sent a message that he had information to trade for his freedom. Since he was scheduled to be sold on the block as payment to you and the crown for his crime later that day; I went to see what he had to trade. He wanted not only freedom, but to trade...

I seem to remember a Spelljammer suppliment where a planet housed the most ancient dragons who could become Air Dragons and then their age categories increased beyond the initial 12 up to 24. Never thought that feasible; or maybe it was dragon heaven?

Eric Another minor lord capitulated and added his page to our store in exchange for a seat like before. If it is all this easy, we'll probably need a feast just for all the minor lords. Ambrose Fiery Mayonnaise 30 olives, pressed for oil (1 mug of oil); 1 phoenix egg (or 6 chicken eggs or 1...

Arrows, bolts, and bullets should still be in bundles rather than as separate checks unless masterwork or to be enchanted. Maybe shuriken too. More Traveling Stations: wood-crafting kits, cooking kits, summoning circles, protective circles, stonework kit, herbalism kit (probably required with...

Outcastia Campaign System (OCS) has a feat called: SACRIFICIAL UNDEAD [ITEM CREATION] You can create undead followers by means of sacrificial rituals. Prerequisites: Evil alignment, Spell Focus (necromancy), Craft Magical Arms and Armor Benefit: This feat allows you to construct different...

Eric, Lord Canton agreed to return the recipes he bought "in good faith" that they weren't stolen; if only we would agree to include him in the next dinner of state of note (the elvish delegation I presume). I accepted the offer in your name; I was sure you would agree. Here is the page he...

Eric We were able to recover a total of 8 pages from the fence along with a ledger that lists his sales, prices charged, and to whom. Though it does not say which pages went where; it does give us a list to find the rest of the book. You will be happy to note that not only did we make a huge...

Hmmm, I'll work on one for the recipe section. Next though has to be weights and measures, then building the perfect fire, so that the recipes can be fully understood.

Eric, I think these pages are more of the purloined book, alas only 2 pages but with the addition of a secret dwarven recipe. I had to shell out nearly 10,000 gp at the bookseller/fence. I did not realize the book was so unique as to break me in recovering it. We need to renegotiate the worth of...
