I noticed, after going through the issue again with a finer toothed comb, that some of the CRs for the Time dragon were wrong. One older variety was three 3 CRs lower than the one before it. I thought it was just a mix-up between the two, but all the other age groups had around a 6 CR...

Very impressive! I tried doing something like this with all 3rd ed. monsters, sorted by CR and including a line or so of description, but I don't have nearly all the books. Any chance this is sorted by edition as well?

That's just silly. Why not just do both? :)

Wow it looks like I have more options than I expected. I'll go over this part of my adventure some time tomorrow, giving me a little time to make a decision on the subject.

I'm also really annoyed at the succubus/erinyes merger. No, they're not holding similar territory at all. They both come from very solid real-world mythological backgrounds, they fill completely different archetypal roles (tempter versus avenger,) and while they had similar statistics in...

I tend to agree with Alchemist on the issue, so the Acid Breath spell (or just making a new spell up,) seems like the best bet. I actually saw that one on a list, but I don't have that book, and I am not fond of just asking for something from a published book. On an unrelated note, does anyone...

More accurately, with Core and Completely Arcane, at least at the minimum level. One of the requirements of the prestige class is that it has three acid spells to get the class, with one being 3rd level or higher. That's fine for fire and air elemental savants, what with fireball and lightning...

Yeah, I find that nearly evrything is a problem. Wizards and sorcerers have the spell failure, clerics don't exist, and besides many classes like that (druid, psionic warrior, etc.,) use Wisdom, totally failing to use the kaorti's three best stats. Given all that, there seems to be three...

Basically, I have a character that uses what is basically a really heavy spiked ball on a stick, so something like a morningstar, but more so. If you ever played Silent Hill 3, that's sort of what I'm aiming for here. Did they ever make stats for something like this in 3rd Ed? Or should I...

Conceptually, I think they're great. Visually interesting, impressive background, genuinely creepy, the whole nine yards. But I'm a little worried that they might not hold up in combat. Despite having unique weapons, they don't seem especially dangerous in terms of melee combat. They are...

I'm going to disagree with this point. While I agree that gay rights is often only an excuse to justify hot lesbians, keep in mind that in most aspects of geek culture (video games, anime, scifi/fantasy, RPGs, etc.) practically everybody is already hot. Granted, this is more often true of...

I posted this before, but it's been a while and I wanted to try this again. I'm currently hosting a 3.5 D&D game in the suburb of Batavia, located just south of Geneva and north of Aurora. We don't have a very difficult time schedule; we usually game from 2-6 pm every other Saturday. The game...

Huh, I was just about to suggest that Umbridge was a perfect example of Lawful Evil. I agree that she overlooked laws at times (like attempting to use an Unforgivable Curse on Harry,) but I don't think individual cases necessarily bump her down to neutral.

This begs another question, now that the campaign is nearing its climax. How do you resolve the fact that the original party is still out there? At some point, the Meepites will theoretically want to do something, even if it's off-camera. The other SH that I read about this path here actually...

Wow, speaking of references to the old campaign. I don't really remember the details of the Scaled Council, but some of the later bits of dragon politics definately ring a bell. As does The Dreaming. It's also interesting that Celeste is so involved at this point in the campaign. I won't...

Yeah, I was thinking that last point, and the same gimmick works for lethal damage and fiends with regeneration. It's a little silly having the conquering heroes arrive while dragging and occasionally beating on a bag full of frapped, assorted fiend bits, though. You know, that would be...

I figured Zad and company would be used to being the Lurker's Choice by now! :) I would probably post more, but until this week or so I had some weird problem with ENworld where every page requires a good minute to load due to some adobe acrobat problem. Also, I was more invested in the...

The players are about 7th level, hence why 28K magic items would generally not be viable. Granted, at that level, there are few fiends who can teleport/plane shift at will, but those who can are still a problem. Also, they have to make sure that, while transporting the captured fiends into the...

The party in my game is about to begin an adventure where they have to fight notable fiends located near a city to earn prestige. They get a greater reward if they capture their targets alive and return them to the city in a mostly harmless state. Why is irrelevent, plus there's a chance one...

Dragon got me into D&D. I had just started playing Pool of Radiance (the computer RPG) when I noticed the magazine at the library. Granted, it took me months to even figure out what it was; I initially thought it was a massive computer game like Pool of Radiance, but I was just a kid at the...
