    [OT] Jester Jokes

    In about three weeks I'll be playing the part of a Renessance Jester for a combined music show and dinner. This is very good, I sing, I hit people with a bladder, and my hat has bells on it. The problem is I have no jokes, and since this is the first year we're doing this, nobody knows any...

    Alignment - just how evil is hiring an assassin?

    I don't about the evil part, but you shouldn't hire an assassin on your comrades. If you want the character dead, then just stick a sword in him, or more realistically Timestop, and hit him with a half-dozen Save-or-Die spells. D&D characters should do the deed themselves.

    [OT] Giant bird spotted off Alaska

    I'm with the scienctists on this one. It's almost impossible for anything with wings and muscles to fly after a certain point. The power to rate ratios drop so fast past a certain point, that it would be impossible for anything this big to get airborne.

    Wisdom vs. Insanity

    Low wisdom means you just aren't very aware of your surrondings, such as a Gelatinous Cube. Basically, a low wisdom means that just don't know what's going on. Some good ways to do this would be: Hallucinations (You see your mother as a drow...), Paranoia (You think the cleric might be lying...

    Clerics rule in NWN

    Eh, the cheapest thing is saving the game, and then Harming them until you get through SR. **SMACK!!!** And have any of you realized how good Good is, my Cleric and Henchman also go around with Stoneskin on, and I cannot describe how often that has saved my life.

    Your Most Embarrassing RPG Moment

    I was playing in some sort of ruleless RPG based on an the evengelian (sp) series. Being that I had never watched the it, I had no idea what to do, and wound up running around Tokyo in a giant robot shooting at Angles and my "buddies". After my first death, I had started naming my characters...

    Tell me about the Chessex Pound o' Dice.

    I'm looking to get dice for several gaming groups, a total of anywhere from 5-10 people. I saw the Chessex Pound o' Dice on their website, and I just want to know if anybody has got one of these, and what their experiences are with it. From what I can see on their website. Pros -Cheaper than...

    Anyone plays with instant kill?

    I did, but now I use multi-crit rules. If, in confirming a critical, you score another critical hit, then you do another critical's worth of damage. This continues until you fail to confirm a critical hit. Example, Tordek, iconic fighter attacks a Dragon with his dwarven waraxe. He rolls a...

    (Not again!) How's this sorcerer's spell list look?

    This looks pretty good. I have just two changes, and they're more style than anything else. I would dump color spray, as it has little effect on high level creatures, and either get sleep, for when you have to deal with the town watch without killing them, or mage armor. It'll let your save...

    New Players Rock!!!

    I just started a D&D game with completely new people who have never played D&D before. Since we only play for 30 minutes once a week at lunch the first two sessions were spent rolling up first level characters, and then we played. It kicked ASS!!! Even though half the group didn't show, it...

    If there was one thing about 3rdE that you could change, what would it be?

    I'd make a simpler action system. It's not that I don't understand it, it's just that the whole mess of Standard, Move Equivalent, Partial, and Full Round are really confusing to the average player.

    Which character sheet do you use ?

    I use a handwritten sheet based on the WotC sheet. It isn't quite big enough for a whole character at high levels, but since we never go above 13, it works. Extreme Top, Name, Race, Class, Level, Alignment, Diety, similar stuff to the WotC sheet. Top Left, Stats. Center Top (from top to...

    looking for stories on final combat in Speaker in Dreams

    When I played through speaker in dreams, it was with someone who had only DMed once or twice. We wandered the city, getting randomly ambushed by Wererats, who were easily defeated. Then we hit the tower, and finally the bookshop. After generally smashing all opposition in the town, we went to...
