    Websites run by DM's for their groups

    my campaign world link is in my sig. I figure not everone will go through all of the things, so I used a side bar in frames to kinda catalog what's there. I've turned it into a library of a sorts. Map of the world that is clickable to go to various entries on that map for the...

    Wondering how important computers are to D&D [rant]

    I do most of my world building on my laptop. So when I run my games, everything is on the laptop that deals with plot lines and such. I do use PCgen to create NPCs. The paper and pencil part is the players. also I use a battlemat with markers and counters. so it's really a table top game...

    Am I the only one who doesn't like the D&D Vampire? (Pointless rant, I suppose)

    For the lack of anything to do, I went to a Blade site and took down the names of the tribes and their quick summary. Use those summary to alter the spawn they produce or the vampires themselves. Went with the changes for spawn and template and added CR or decreased CR in some cases. I now...

    Free Metamagic enhancements

    Considering it's possible epic scale. you might want to go one step further instead of using my system. have them choose a metamagic feat that can be up to their int mod. For example the character rolled has an 18. +4 int mod. choose a feat that is anywhere between +1 to +4. (this obviously...

    Free Metamagic enhancements

    hmmm Interesting addition. Though I think allowing it to be as many times as you want as long as you successfully do the spellcraft check is overbalanced. I would suggest the system I already have. And the spellcraft to add the metamagic to the spell, AND limit it to (INT mod X 1/4 caster...

    ability score loss

    you forget to take into account that you GAINED 2 con when you got the toad which includes a change in HP of 4 HP. when the toad dies, you LOSE 2 con and there fore lost the 4 HP as well. This is not the same as ability score loss from poison or other that are temporary.

    Is the Everquest RPG now d20 compatible?

    so far I've successfully incorporated the EQ Bard to replace the PHB bard in my campaign world. I'm trying to see if the arcane spellcasters are balanced or needs tweaking for my campaign. I gave the Bard the same xp advancement as the PHB for classes. Then used the mana system for their...

    Free Metamagic enhancements

    :) Thanks. My thought was to actually give wizards something to look forward to in choosing their metamagic feats. I've looked through many character creations of my friends and when they take wizard or sorcerer, I found that they are on the low end on picking metamagic. So I figure adding...

    Free Metamagic enhancements

    This was to make Wizards want to take feats like quicken, because at least once a day of a INT 18 wiz or sor can use it without preparing the spell. Yes there are little subtle changes for differing classes. It's basically flavor for my campaign.

    Free Metamagic enhancements

    Clarification: The number of uses is based on how much they use at one time. The total "levels" they get is equal to their ability modifier that governs their spell casting. IE: Wiz Level 1 IN 18 has a +4 to modifier. He gets 4 "levels" to play with in metamagic per day. has 2 feats: still...

    Free Metamagic enhancements

    I was debating of allowing a small rule into the magic casting system. The spell casters use thier ability modifier to allow them to cast metamagic spells on the fly. example IN 18 is a +4 mod. He already memorized fireball at level 3. during the fight he felt he needed to cast fireball and...

    DC's for scrolls?

    Sorry he's right. I've played in my campaign that scrolls use their creator's dc. Making them more expensive and more in demand. sorry for the confusion.

    New Haste - Does it Fix Your Concerns?

    Nope. It's stated that casting a spell is a standard action. NOT a partial action. Logically drinking a potion is a standard action, do you allow two potions when in the influence of a haste spell? I don't.

    New Haste - Does it Fix Your Concerns?

    hmmmm I don't see a need to change it. First off in the actual rules. Casting a spell is a standard action(page 148 phb). Haste gives only +4 to ac and an extra partial action. not an extra standard action.

    DC's for scrolls?

    this is for a default scroll that is found. A Player that takes the time, xp and money can make it to his level and int. Hence 10++int mod+spell level. BUT only if it's a special case. If this is just a treasure that is being found, for simplicity it is 10+spell level + min INT mod.

    Who "Owns" Old PC's?

    hmmm The player creates a PC in a game that he no longer plays in. The game/campaign world is the province of the DM. Without the DM there is no game. The DM has the stats of the character. Decides to use him in future as an NPC. The Former Player doesn't want the DM to use the character...
