Ran party through RttToEE. Yep, this one made me a better/meaner/leaner DM and now my players accept high body counts and nasty tricks as all part of the fun. At one point, a ten-year D&D veteran said, "I've never been more freaked out by anything in a D&D game." Good times, good times...

I tried to stop once. I really did. Really. Gave away all my books. Oh well...

I've been an infrequent collector of Dungeon going back to the last days of 2nd edition. The magazine has generally improved in quality during that time. I enjoyed issue #99 a lot.

Thanks for the heads up! As a gnome lover, I see no problems with any of this.

What? Hooray! I'll be used for more than greataxe damage rolls!

Thanks Fenes 2 - here's a test NPC I made in 30 seconds. NPC #875 Koach, male dwarf Ftr3/Clr5; CR 8; HD 5d8+3d10+16; hp 65; Init -1; Spd 20 ft; AC 19/17, touch 9, flat-footed 19/17 (-1 Dex,+7 armor,+1 armor enh.,+2 shield); Melee heavy pick +9/+4 (1d6+3/x4), or short sword +9/+4 light...

Here's a house I use. Let me know what you think. Since "de-leveling" your character is not fun we use this houserule. Any time your character would lose a level due to death or level drain, they instead lose the amount of xp they would have lost, had they lost the level. This means that...

Okay - I'll try that program. I'm buidling an adventure with a LOT of human NPCs that will probabbly all get into combat so this will help - thanks!

Wow, thanks JoeBlank. That'll save me lots of time in the future.

Hi all: I need a list of prepared spells for a 15th level wizard. If it matters, he's one of the BBEG's lieutinants in an adventure I will be running soon. stats: LE, Human, S:10, C:14, D: 12, I: 18, W:14, Ch:16, feats: spell focus: enchantment, silent spell, still spell, quicken spell I...

Hey! If that's the case then it would tie in nicely with his speech in the first movie about classifying human beings as viruses. The W. Bros seem very very fond of providing clues about what's going to happen. In the first movie, the scene with the Oracle and Neo sort of telegraphs...

I *think* its "Merovingian" - after a line of Frankish Kings.

Ashrem Bayle, Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

I gotta disagree. "Neo, you aren't the messiah, you're an aberration in the program. But we've fixed you by making you an intergral part of the program. You see, you don't rip down the system, you restart it [HENCE THE NAME OF THE MOVIE!!!]" I thought the movie rocked on so many different...

I'm going to go find the Matrix 2 thread right now!

I ran a 4th level cleric with a Charisma of 14 through a one-shot adventure that featured a castle with 4 single-roomed stories. Each room had 10-30 skeletons in it for a toal of around 100 skeletons. After getting modestly good turn rolls on five turn checks total, my cleric turned 75% of...

I've gamed with Rangerwicket. [off topic] Someone let me know when the Sooby-Gang unmasks Pyruhtkat. I want to know who he/she REALLY is and what he's up to. I offer a scooby snack as reward.

I also wanted to add that as a DM, cleric bad-guys make for a hard row to hoe for the PC's - especially at mid-to-high levels. Imagine clearing out most of a dungeon/fort/castle and then falling back for a rest. The next day you return to find the evil head cleric raised or resurrected...

Well I mean there's your "preferences" and then there's "usefulness" and the two aren't the same. Consider that the cleric can select from all the spells in their class list (including supplement books if your DM allows), wear heavy armor, has those cool domain abilities and can cast healing...

I understand being worried about running out of ammunition but remember you can replenish your supply by taking arrows of dead enemy archers. Surely your DM will have you encounter a FEW archers along the way. Also, a quiver of Ehlonna (inexhuastable arrows) is fairly cheap I think. You...
