As Yesnomu said, anyone who can get Fire Resistance 10 from somewhere's going to be thoroughly underwhelmed by the remorahz - it'll barely scratch them as all its heat based powers deal precisely 10 damage...

Terminal velocity fight? Start in a blimp which has a darn great big net-launcher on the top of it which restrains the dragon's wings so it falls like a stone. Party gets to dive out of the blimp and try to keep it restrained / kill it before it breaks free and slaughters people?

Fought one with our level 16 party. Very boring. My fighter spent 8 rounds unconscious - every time I got up, the darn thing knocked me back down again. If it had decided to take a few coup de grace attacks, we'd have been wiped out alarmingly quickly. It was very one sided. Mind you, having...

We had a DM who described on more than one occasion that the room was lit by burning brassiers. Which caused me and one of the others to collapse in hysterics...

Speaking as someone in the same party, I'm pretty sure Morrus' build has stretched the rules to splintering point without adding in another source of cold damage... Nooo... I'm not jealous of his damage output at all... He doesn't deal more damage on a miss than I do on a critical... In the...

My fey (in a supers game, but similar feel) appeared in mirrors to the characters a lot. Shaving was a popular one. It got to the point that one player was refusing to go into his own bathroom in case the main fey they'd met was waiting for him in his mirrors. They'd turn up in glass buildings...

I supply all the kit for 2 games in 2 different locations. Just spent quite a lot of money on a new bag. Big enough for all my minis, floor tiles, essential books (about 4), 3 sets of dice, pens, tokens... My god it's heavy. The bag has a handle, shoulder strap, wheels and then opens up to...

In my mind, if an item is just 'better', more people will pick it up. Which points the finger at Acrobat's Boots and Dwarven Armour, both of which are in the PHB. I have 2 parties which have been almost taken over by Acrobat's Boots!

One of our first 3e outings, we played an 'all evil' campaign. It didn't work out, as you might imagine. Someone played a 1/2 orc. It was introduced by riding towards us from about a mile away, and we could see it coming. The main enemy at the time was orcs. Fireball has a jolly long range...

I've been mightily amused by a 'Defending' weapon with my dwarf. Adds the enhancement bonus from the weapon to your defences whenever you fight defensively or use second wind. Which, of course, is a minor action for a dwarf. Which means my level 8 cleric can hit an AC of 29 (30 if I was in...

Wrong system, but I did manage to wipe out my entire party in a Deadlands: Hell on Earth game. Something to do with my firing an erratic home-made repeating shrapnel cannon left-handed whilst holding a burning jury-rigged torch in my other hand. With a large bucket of unstable plastic explosive...

I've done a few in various systems - Star Wars. Playing the Imperial March. It's a classic, as everyone immediately hits 'scramble for action' mode... Standing up, stomping around and yelling a lot for the angry God. Managed to get one player to back up (we were playing on the floor that...

Slight disadvantage is that you can only do levels 1-3 with it. And when they finally release the 'full' version it'll be subscribers only. Linky: D&D Character Builder

OK... Really tall table then... Still frustrates me that my 4e character can't jump down!

I'm still getting grumpy at the gaming table over the fact that I can jump up onto a table, but can't jump down. Either I train in acrobatics, climb, or land prone. (as written, anyway)

Creatures with phasing. Ghsts. That's all I'm saying.

Use that feat to get Beronar's Salve Channel Divinity power? Gives you another encounter heal power (which only triggers when your ally drops, but you can't have everything!)

I'm intent on amending a good chunk of one of the pieces of this. There's a large-scale conflict at the end. I fully intend to re-make The Seven Samurai for a set-piece session swarming with HUGE numbers of minions...

Marvel's Dr Doom...

Stick subtle runes into the brickwork? Passive perception 20? (Our level 6 group has 2 people with passive higher than this, so 10-14 should be no problem). DC 25 Arcana check and "it's some kind of preventative to teleportation. Also of reinforcement to the walls." DC 30 gives you "It's likely...
