Out of curiousity, when did Daelric turn evil? He seemed the least evil among the group for ages, save for Octorus I suppose. And was Marius evil beforehand, officially? I think I got him and another of the early blasty types confused.

I have to admit, I'm a little disappointed by Vanthus. I thought the guy would put up at least a little fight, especially since he's been an enemy of the party since, what, adventure 1?

Mandi might. Anwar struck me more as the type who twirled his mustache and would engage in the occasional maniacal laughter, albeit only when alone.

Just bumping the thread for now. I managed to find a couple new players at the time, but unfortunately schedules have changed and I have to look once again.

Out of curiosity, whatever happened to this thread and to your campaign in general?

I suspect a lot of the many, many uses for Spot will pop up in these abilities as well. That'll be a tough skill to delegate in general; in my campaigns I find this one comes up almost as much as other skills combined.

I was going over the books when I noticed that the cost of sleep arrows, for example, is strange. Each arrow is 132 gold, so I assume that is for the price of one arrow based on what 50 arrows would cost. That means a set of 50 sleep arrows would cost 6,600 gold. Minus the price of their +1...

Aww, I'm sorry to see this thing go, but I certainly understand why it is. Yeah, you covered most of my issues with this thing, and why I prefer making up my own adventures in the first place. So did you let the PCs see the last modules, or are you saving them for borrowing purposes. I'd like...

Oh. Huh. That was easy. You even can do freaking full attacks on the run with mounted archery, albeit with the -4 penalty? And mounted archery even removes some of that. I'm very impressed. I guess that 3rd ed conditions you to do that sort of stuff via feats, huh?

In other words, I want to make a mount-heavy character that moves while mounted (in other words, the mount moves,) uses a ranged attack, and then moves again on the same round. Is there any published feat that does that? If not, how would you recommend making one?

Was Marius' player busy or something? His missing presence likely made that fight much harder.

Okay, here's how I would handle gold and magic items, if I was soley responsible for 4th Ed. 1. Stat boosting primary magic items. Here we have our +x swords, items of important attribute bump (strength for fighter, intelligence for wizard, dexterity and constitution for pretty much everyone,)...

I'm curious how the celestial expects Roy to tip them. Shouldn't all his money still be hanging out with his rotting corpse? Or does he get spiritual equivalents just like he did with his clothing? Maybe you CAN take it with you! I assume he'll be raised in one of two ways. Either two...

What spell did Mandi use in the bedroom? I can never keep track of divinations.

My current campaign uses Eberron races, psionics, and dozens of monsters of my own creation. Given all that, I imagine I'll at least finish this campaign in 3.5, as it sounds like most of what I need will take another year at least to come out. Besides, my players are reluctant to get a new...

Yes! Thank you! Actually, that "bouncer" thing makes me nervous. If we applied it literally, if the red dragon is in, then the gold dragon and hell hound are out. What does a goblin add that the kobold and orc don't? I think there be some respect for a creature's thematic value, not just its...

Oh, I was just thinking of this one. Another fun one is the Terratomorph frrom the Monster Manual 2. And there's another type, but I can't remember their names. They were outsiders, I think, with insect builds and face masks they could reveal to shock people. There were, I think, 3 distinct...

This is the parallel to the "What core monsters should get the axe?" thread. What monsters from expanded 3rd ed books, like Monster Manuals 2-5, the Fiend Folio, Epic Level Handbook, etc., should become parts of the game's core books? I'd have to leaf through the books again, but here are...

As written, sure. But remember that playable races in 4th ed are supposedly much more detailed and get better as you go up in levels. So even if tieflings start at 3rd ed caliber, they could grow to better resemble, say, modern half-fiends. And if you asked if there was an audience to play...

You know, I remember having this exact same argument back when that drow article of Dragon came out years ago and the question was whether drows are nearly inescapably super-evil (as the article implied,) or whether they were a viable PC race. To be honest, I find the common geek response to...
