This is a great idea, but I have an issue with the CR. Having to use a Wish to kill this beasty permanently mean you are going to use far more XP to make sure it stays dead then you will get out of it. If I was in a 7th level group (or higher) and came across something like this I'd keep it...

My wife and have always had bad luck playing World of Darkness. The Storyteller even says that whenever he needs a player to botch a critical roll he can count on us :\ It doesn't matter how many dice I roll, I will usually have more 1's than successes.

Turned into a rock. I have a CN diety in my game that occasionally turns people into rocks temporarily ;) The deity has no worshippers and no clerics, and the only thing anyone has been able to find about the diety is the 1st letter of his/her/its name: Q :lol:

I have a player like that. Only he does it because he likes to roll up new characters and try them out (however briefly), and to put more treasure in the party coffers. I put a limit on that however, once the party average reached 9 I house ruled all new characters could come in at no higher...

This is great stuff and I'll probably use it in my game at some point, but I'll probably raise the spell level and number of damage dice. Mostly because after checking on Vorpal sword it showed Circle of Death, a 6th level spell as being of the enchantment need to create the vorpal effect.

I see some of these posts have morphed the thread into a bad game/bad DM thread. But thats OK, because I have one of those too ;) Been in a game where the DM plays favorites to one set of players over another set. Birthright campaign, and no one was to start out evil, one PC was, all of us...

I added the Effigy template from Complete Arcane to a Girallon and a Giant Constrictor Snake (raising both to CR 6) and sicced them on a party of 3 gestalt characters. A Paladin/Sorceror 7, a Cleric/Mage 8 and a Rogue/Fighter 8. The party got their butts practically handed to them until they...

Not so much different names, but I did use different forms of currency. Such as the dust of such precious metals bound up in quill feathers of varying sizes. Size Value Small X pieces x 5 Medium X pieces x 10 Large X pieces x 20 The value X means whatever type of precious metal the...

Heh, and my first thought was the fire giants name was Corbert :D

All I can really say to that is ditto! :)

I'm currently running a Furries and Fantasy campaign where everyone is a humaniod animal of some sort. I have a hummingbird rogue (played by my wife), a housecat rouge/bard, a gecko cleric, a cheetah fighter, a kangaroo wizard, and a ferret scout. You can find the basics here...

Exactly! Frankly, the penalties of losing a Familiar drive me away from having one, and I like to play wizards :( .

I've seen steam trains, guns, and in another thread (http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?t=160405) the DM is wanting to use the telegraph. What have you used or come across in a standard D&D campaign?

Yeah I know, I'm running a test game with two players and it seems to be doing fine. Thanks for the feedback. I'm not sure I'll go with the artifact idea though, I want NPCs to have access to this also so I can keep things balanced. Of course, I could just lower the CR of any non-gestalt NPCs...

please delete

I'm planning on using this to introduce gestalt to my players in my main game, and I'm not sure if it should be an artifact, a spell effect, an emmanation from a newly discovered underdark metal or what. If its an artifact that places it out of the hands of NPCs, unless I gimmick it so the PCs...

No, thank you for posting :) . Great story, very entertaining.

None of my players know about the idol with gemstone eyes, so I ran two players through a side trek where these kobolds lured them to a wooden palisade in the forest "protecting" a large statue of a "kobold god" that has gems for eyes. Falling right into my trap, a rogue player sneaks in and...

From his dwarf ancestry he gets a -2 adjustment to Charisma, base land speed of 20 feet, and his dwarven kin get a +1 racial bonus on attack rolls against orcs and goblinoids, meaning him (MOM, the Stonebreaker kids keeps hitting me!). Half-Orcs get a -2 adjustment to Charisma. This character...

Occasionally I have to split an encounter to two or more gaming sessions, and if a player is really late or can't show up it doesn't seem fair for them to get as much XP or treasure as the characters that were there for the entire time. So, I came up with the idea of a chaotic deity that...
