Only when I DM. I'm not all that good at it, but I try. The voice I'm most proud of doing was for an NPC who was a 4th level expert who "made things happen" in town. I watched the Maltese Falcon a bunch of times and got Peter Lorre down cold. It was perfect because he was always flanked by a...

See, I have a different take on the issue. I try to mix things up so the following happen. (percentages are approximate) 10% of the time your character will be the perfect person to have there and the rest of the party would be very hard pressed without you. 10% of the time your character...

Looking at this thread I'm wondering if I'm preparing a TPK for my party as a random nightime encounter. My group is a cleric 3 / fighter 1 mage 4 with the fire domain from UA Spirit Shaman 4 Swashbuckler 2 / figher 2 rogue 4 Bard 3 The encounter was designed to be tough, it's two harpies...

Excellent! Nice to know when I rule off the top of my head that I've hit upon the rule. Wonder where it might reside in the PHB... *edit* pg 142..

In our last game our spirit shaman cast briar web on two zombies. They can only take partial actions but it's a full round action to try to escape. The way I handled it was I gave them an escape attempt every 2 rounds while the party just pelted them with everything they had. Was this the...

Way back in the 2e days we all showed up for a new campaign. The DM asked that we all play characters of the same class. We talked amoungst ourselves and decided upon fighter. The DM blinked and looked at us. "Fighter?" "Yep" "Ok, we'll start in 3 weeks, chargen in two, let's go get...

You are thinking of Yondalla. But my group has a halfling cleric (some FR god I can't remember). He is so weak (physically) that we carried his healing kit for him until we found a bag of holding (or was it a Hewards Handy Haversack I can't remember). He is very creative with his clerical...

A cleric of the war domain can almost keep up with a fighter without restorting to magic and can outdistance a fighter when you consider divine magic. If you are a cleric of a war god, you aren't going to be often dropping out of combat to heal people, your god would rather keep you in the...

Anyone else? And I have one more question. Any idea of the DC on a listen check to wake up when the singing is heard? The Harpies will attack at night.

Does a harpy have to end it's captivating song to club you over the head? Or more appropriately, does it clubbing you over the head end it's captivating song?

My wife got pipe cleaners and made frames for the Area of Effects. You can drop them on the map without upsetting any of the pieces. The 20ft radius is a little floppy even when she doubled up on the pipe cleaners. Guess we'll need to canabalize some wire hangers for it.

Thanks everybody!

Thanks Diaglo. I am more thinking of expanding the list of things that can be made with craft (alchemy) but I hadn't thought about an Alchemist class. I'll dust off those CD's, I hardly if ever use them these days...

Two of my players have a wizard for their mother (and stepmother). It's been established that the mother is very interested in alchemy. However, the PHB has very little beyond thunderstones, tanglefoot bags, etc.. I'm sure there's a decent PDF I can buy out there off the web. Any...

It seems just a little to anti-climatic to me. Why didn't the vrocks try to pull the illithid off the Balor? I'm sure at least a few of them could have gotten to the grapple. Also, now that I think of it, they vrocks would know from the blood wars that they can barely harm the balor if they...

Boo YEAH!! Last I checked, you could only buy admittance for the entire con and that was way to much money to spend when I could only make one or two days. They now have single day prices!!! :D :D :D :cool:

I am currently in two groups. The first group is my weekly game, consisting of my wife and a bunch of our friends. We all know each other the Rocky Horror cast I used to direct (except for my poker buddy). This game is very fun. We take turns DM'ing (at 4-6 month stretches). I like this...

I voted yes, but with strings attached. That being said, if one of my players was a high level cleric and wanted to cast the spell on their own, I'd allow them to do it without the service for the temple any other cleric would ask. If the person in question was very contrary to the tenents of...

In my campaign you can take maidenwort. It's easily obtained from an herbalist (DC10) or concocted by an alchemist (DC15). Taking it after an indescretion eliminates the chance of pregnancy. Because of this, never has a PC gotten pregnant, not the sorceror who was determined to sleep with...
