    JollyDoc's Savage Tide-Updated 10/8!

    I know it's tangential to the main thread of the story, but I really enjoyed this posting. Would it be possible to get a follow up (after the finale of the AP, of course!) that details how Lavinia ended up "castrating" Meravinchi and succeeding (or not) in establishing her merchant empire? I'm...

    Vertical cone area of effect

    Hi, I'm playing a warlock in a Shackled City campaign, and eventually I plan on taking Eldritch Cone in order to be more effective as an attacker. Since I already have Fell Flight, I thought it would be cool to fly over a group of enemies and blast down on them with a cone of eldritch energy...

    Wand target question

    What are the target limitations of a spell from a wand? For example, if I had a wand of detect secret doors, could only the character wielding the wand use it, or could the wand wielder cast the spell on another creature? What about for a spell like expeditious retreat (with a range of...

    The Doomed Bastards: Reckoning (story complete)

    Tremendous. This has been a truly fantastic story hour, Lazybones. I thank you for sharing your creativity, it's been a pleasure to follow along! :) Now, since I started with Doomed, I get to back track and catch up on your previous efforts!!! YEEEEEEEEEE-HAAAAAAA!

    Metamorphosis tag team

    Thanks! :) I've spent a bit more time looking through the SRD, and it seems to me that ankheg and digester are good choices for utility purposes...can't get through that door? No problem, blast it with acid! :) The more I read, the more I see pretty cool extraordinary attacks for a lot of...

    Metamorphosis tag team

    Hello, I'm playing in a gestalt game and my dwarven factotum/psion(egoist) just reached 7th level. Metamorphosis is one of the powers I took, and since then I've been trying to figure out good combos to use in conjunction with my psicrystal. As I read the share powers ability, if I manifest...

    Shackled City AP starting crew

    I think that if you're primary PC will be a wizard, then the suggestion of druid is a good secondary choice. Especially if you're going to be a conjurer - there's an option (in PHB2 or Dungeonscape, I believe) which allows a conjurer to summon creatures as a standard action which a conjurer in...

    Open Letter from Peter Adkison on Gen Con Chapter 11

    Anyone know what the non-Gen Con licensed event was? I thought I'd heard something about Star Wars related licensing, but maybe I'm confusing data...

    Which game console to buy???

    Let me add another vote for a PS2. I picked one up at Best Buy (new, they still have them and all the accessories) a couple weeks ago and I've been enjoying it a lot. I've owned an Xbox for years and enjoy that too, as well as a desktop PC outfitted for gaming (especially NWN!!). I got the...

    Timeline for Remaining Adventures

    I'm sorry to hear about the financial problems, that totally sucks. The quality of the adventures is awesome, so I'm not sure about the motivation behind stopping purchasing...unless it's a budget issue, and folks are trying to start saving up for 4e supplies. IIRC the pre-release price was...

    Timeline for Remaining Adventures

    I subscribed to the AP prior to its release, and I've noticed as well that it's been less than regular in its releases. Also, I received email notices when a new module was released for the first few modules, but for the last three or four I've more or less stumbled across them by accident...

    FEats for the single (classed) Factotum

    Somewhat late to the conversation now, but with the Web Enhancement for Dungeonscape we get Font of Inspiration - granting more inspiration points to the factotum. I'm taking this at basically every feat level with my dwarf factotum, so that he has insane numbers of inspiration points in...

    Factotum skill question

    I'd agree with sukael, since Dungeonscape was released subsequent to Tome of Magic. But in any case, I've found from playing a factotum that there are plenty of standard skills to spend my points on. :)

    Non-RAW Character Bonus Abilities

    Ahh, nice idea, unfortunately Acid Arrow doesn't have a fixed or personal range, so it's not persistible. :( I like wraithstrike, but frankly with the buffs I can get, the dwarf can hit pretty dependably. I wish swift haste was a sorcerer/wizard spell...how cool would it be to be hasted all...

    Non-RAW Character Bonus Abilities

    Hi, I've been playing in a campaign since September and we're starting to explore the Banewarrens. I started with a dwarven factotum but at 4th level we became gestalt characters, so now (5th level) I'm a factotum/psion (egoist). One of the in-house mechanics the DM uses is a random list of...
