Bah!! You're no fun! :p

Can I join your game? :p

Forked from: Where Has All the Magic Gone? So, what are your favorites? And why? I already listed two from the previous thread, but I'll post them again here: Ring of Contrariness: A cursed magical ring that makes the wearer unable to agree with any idea, statement, or action. In addition...

I miss my wand of fire, I really do :.-(:.-(:.-(!! I think some of my favorite items were the cursed ones. I miss cursed items a lot. Not because they messed around with the players ( I admit that that aspect can be fun), but because they represented a facet of magic that has been lost in 3rd...

When you look at a picture of the pyramids of Egypt and think to yourself, "Man, those 4-siders are massive!"

I agree with Jack7, for the most part. It has been my observation that magical items have become very "blah." Most of them have lost versatility and flavor in exchange for steady mechanics. I really wish the creators would have taken a bit more time and developed magic items that contained solid...

Hello, I have been searching (without much success) for certain artwork by Douglas Chaffee. I'm trying to find "Chained Lightning," "The Gorgon," and "Hordes at Dragonspear." Can anyone help me? These three pictures are some of my favorite artwork from some of the AD&D Second edition PH, and I'd...

:.-(:.-(:.-(:.-(!!! Good grief, that fight was brutal! Poor Aravis! Poor Pewter! And poor cats! So do Null Shadows ignore magical effects that normally protect from touch attacks, such as mage armor?

As of now, no. I haven't had the chance to talk to my DM yet. I'll keep everyone updated on the situation.

My problem is that I tend to get really immersed into the game; I wrote long backgrounds for my characters, regular journal entries, and the like. When I'm a spellcaster, I get even worse. I actually write out incantations for my spells, and then pronounce them when he casts them. Sadly, the...

Thanks for the responses so far, everyone. My vague description is somewhat deliberate; I'm open to ideas about the actual weapon, whether or not to go two-weapon fighting, and the like. I like Bo9S, but my DM has mixed feelings. He doesn't like many of the powers because they appear too wuxia...

Believe me, I agree with you. I really do. But our DM is gonna try and handle this diplomatically, for better or worse.

I come to the people of EN World to assist me on this project. The goal is to make a master swordsman for a campaign I'm going to be playing in; a warrior who is deadly with a blade in his hand. The character starts out 11th level, and I rolled the following stats: 17, 15, 15, 15, 15, 13. I can...

Unfortunately, two of our players could not make it to game tonight, so we can't get their input, although the rest of us noticed and tried to deal with it. Frankly, Fred was just rude tonight. He claims that he had a "bad week." So because he had a bad week, he decided that it would be...

Well, an update on the current situation. We gamed tonight, and more of the same stuff. Fred spent the entire game, absorbed in his reading, only taking the time to speak when you spoke to him directly. And even then, his speech was short the whole time. Our DM was supposed to speak with him...

First I would like to thank everyone who has replied to this thread, whether it be some friendly advice or encouragement. Thanks!! :D Some people have suggested giving Fred the Boot. I'd like to avoid that, if possible. What I'd really like to do is get together with the other players before...

I think it's funny that you mentioned two seperate characters that are essential played by James Earl Jones! :D

Garion from the Belgariad series by David Eddings wears armor a few times in the story, and he is a magic-user (sort of). One problem I see with this challenge is that in most old literature/stories, there is no distinction between arcane and divine; Merlin was more of a druid in certain...

I'm fairly sure Fred knows that his tantrums are disruptive; he and I have had a confrontation once about that very issue. It did not end well, and nothing really came of it. I know our DM has had a few talks with him, but it was between the two of them. I've never actually witnessed his...

Here's the problem: our DM has talked to him a number of times. Each time has had to deal with some random issue, such as "Fred" complaining about treasure or whatnot. After such a talk, Fred chills out for a few weeks, and then starts again. The problem is that Fred is a friend. All of us...
