    If you are bored then create my badguy!

    wow Wow, I thought this thread had died. My PCs have finished RttToEE and are now headed off to Baldur's gate to stop a Zhentarim plot. They also think this wizard is dead. (Mwhahahaha!) I think when they're standing in the smoking remains of the Zhentarim fortress, this guy is going to...

    [FR] Campaign Setting interpretation diatribe

    slight RttToEE spoliers. . . . . . . . I just finished running RttToEE in the Realms. My previous exposure to the realms before this came from reading everything by RA Salvatore plus about 10 other realms novels by other authors and playing icewind dale and Neverwinter Nights. My players all...

    male playing female PC

    I did it Its no more weird than playing a male elf that cast spells and holds a sword and kills dragons. Does the DM in the group (you?) ever play female NPC's? If yes, is that any different? Does anyone think you're weird? I am male and played the same female character for years - it was...

    [FR] cosmology and after-life for an elf

    In the FR, if a good-aligned faithful worshipper of Solonar Thealdira (sp?) dies, where does their spirit go? Thanks.

    Cool ideas for a Paladin's sword.

    Oathbinder In a campaign I played in the Paladin had a sword called Oathbinder. If anyone swore an oath upon the sword, they were magically bound to keep it - even if they died and were resurrected or reincarnated they had to keep the oath. It only came up a few times in play but it was a...

    [FR] Advanceing the Plot

    IMC, a group of Banite Zhents from Balder's Gate are a major pain in the butt to the PC's. I am just about to have these Zhents purge Darkhold "off screen." The PC's may become involved when the Cyric-worshipping Zhentarim seek out the PC's as possible allies against the Banite Zhents. So...

    Getting into the retail gaming business

    Speaking as one of you future potential customers let me say that this is very very true. I can't tell you how many times I've gone into a game store and been ignored or worse, treated very rudely. You need to have a staff that can be friendly, talk shop and not bark at people. Have staff...

    Spiked Armor and Str Bonus

    In the Equipment chapter of the PHB, it states that one can add spikes to their armor. This does 1d6 (x2 crit) on a successful grapple attack. Do you add your str bonus to the damage? I think yes. What do you think?

    [FR] Now wait just a minute here...

    Wow, D.J. is now the Forgotten Realms Swami. I love talking about the FRCS but maybe we should put all of these in one thread? Just my opinion.

    Old DM New to High Level Adventures - Help

    In a recent campaign-ending combat, our party's 12th level cleric managed to get through the SR on a CR 17 elemental-creature with a harm spell. Even though I house rule a save on the harm spell - the bad guy rolled a 1. Ouch. He dropped to 1 hp. It was the bad guy's turn next. He got four...

    [FR] An Alternate Darkhold

    muchos gracias I haven't read it fully but I did want to say thanks - I will now be stealing all of your hard work and using it in my home home campaign. Thank you! Thanks! Gracias!

    New Haste - Does it Fix Your Concerns?

    I suspect that I will house rule the new haste to allow an extra attack, move or spell - perhaps dropping the AC bonus. I think its fun to cast two spells in a round and if the badguys can do it too then its okay.

    Should a "specialist" wizard be demoted?

    sigh Bugaboo, I think you're wrong. By taking Diviner, this player has made a very small sacrifice (no necromancy) for a very small gain (1 extra divination/level/day). If he's powergaming, he's not doing it very well. It's not like he found some obscure d20 book and used unbalancing feats...
