    Difficult decisions for a monk trying to do the right thing...

    Yeah, they may ask for money, gold, and something seemingly harmless... but that will end in evil. Perhaps delivering a package to a nearby person (contains something that motivates that individual to evil, think Seven) the destruction of some evil monster nearby (which held in check a more...

    Difficult decisions for a monk trying to do the right thing...

    *my players, stay out* My campaign is leading up to a large scale battle (thousand or so on each side) between the PC and their allies, and the BBEG and his troops. The BBEG has recently ratained a group of Baatezu via a contract (see Baatezu Brigade in Heroes of Battle) to assist him in the...

    Far Realms insanity, let's melt minds.

    Yeah, I have that Dragon magazine... but there isn't much in there that really sets the Far Realms apart. I'm looking for something more drastic I suppose.

    Far Realms insanity, let's melt minds.

    My players, stay out! :p Ok, guys and gals, I have an upcoming game that will be set in the Far Realms. The party is 20th level (though a bit under the "recommended" treasure they should have, I'm stingy) and I'm looking for some odd elements to throw in the Far Realms. I 'm still preparing my...

    The EN World FREE Character Portrait Request Thread!

    It can take quite a while, I posted Mithras way back in April... of 2004. (Hey I'm beating that 7-month record by far!) Thankfully, a few months ago, Chain Lightning agreed to give him a whirl. I check every day and hope, but I don't hold my breath. I know that the great quality work they do...

    Modifying the Prestige Bard class from Unearthed Arcana

    Well, I have my own issues with Bardic Knowledge and it doesn't fit for the particular build I'm looking for. I would have thought a +1 arcane caster level at only a single level would seem at least equal to a ability (though of little use in actual combat, but useful in every other way) that...

    Modifying the Prestige Bard class from Unearthed Arcana

    In Unearthed Arcana they have a version of the Bard class that's a prestige class rather than a core class. You can take a look yourself at the class here: Prestige Bard I'd like to make a version that doesn't have the Bardic Knowledge ability and instead gains either one or more +1 existing...

    Finding religion in D&D (or the most ambitious/insane thing I've done as a DM)

    I like both ideas... perhaps I can do both, combined into one event! Very nice MavrickWeirdo :). That does help. And yeah, brave or stupid. Same thing I think, hehe. Thank you very much for reading the post btw, I know it was a bit long, but I wasn't sure how to shorten it without it being even...

    Fabricate: the ultimate war-time spell? (Posted for Arravis)

    Could you turn a bolt of wool into a shirt? A bolt of wool is already produced material... Can you turn an iron ignot into a sword? Iron ignots are produced by a forge. Does nature "produce" trees etc... it can go on forever. If you go too much into what's "produced" and what's not, it gets...

    Why punish a player if they can't come to the game?

    N'vida game? Not familiar with that... I got my little glass stones at Michaels. I've seen them used in clear flower pots. They work well as general "chits". :) I also have "black stones" I hand out.. the DM turns those in for you though. They're bad luck.. thought you rolled a 20? Nope... roll...

    Problems with creating a new thread in the 'Talking the Talk Forum'

    Finding religion in D&D (or the most ambitious/insane thing I've done as a DM)

    There is something I'd like to see happen in my campaign, but I'm not sure how to handle it. Additionally, I don't know how to make this short. My apologies, but I hope this will be worth it. *My players, stay out :p* First off it's a Forgotten Realms campaign. The thing in question involves my...

    Tune of the Dancing Weapon, overpowered or just right?

    Should I be lost?

    Why punish a player if they can't come to the game?

    Has anyone who gives out XP for players who aren't able to make it ever had anyone complain about it? I've never heard a single complaint, and these are all friends and people I know quite well. Friends who all tend to be brutally honest, hehe.

    Why punish a player if they can't come to the game?

    As mentioned a while back (lost in morass that is this thread, hehe), at the end of the game the players all vote for the best-RP in the game and that person gets a chit (we use blue glass stones) that can be turned in for XP or a re-roll. The RP awards are essentially given out by the players...

    Tune of the Dancing Weapon, overpowered or just right?

    My bladesinger is a 20th level character... with a BaB of 19. Nothing to sneeze at. But just because something is powerful with a particular character, doesn't mean that it's too powerful as a spell in general. Savage Wombat, what makes you think it's specificly "bard magic"? There's nothing...

    Tune of the Dancing Weapon, overpowered or just right?

    A friend of mine have been discussing this... DOES a dancing weapon grant multiple attacks? I see multiple attacks as a feature of BAB, he sees it as a additional benefit that goes to the character only.

    Rethinking this post, hold on :P

    Tune of the Dancing Weapon, overpowered or just right?

    To explain why I believe it only works for the caster... The spell mentions that when the spell is cast, the weapon immediately becomes dancing, is activated, and begins attacking. Since the caster is the person doing the "activating", even if you touched another party-member's weapon, you're...
