In my Swashbuckling in Freeport campaign, one of the players is running a cleric who is attempting to found a church for the undead. The character is looking for a spell or magic item that would allow him to approach undead creature for the purpose of proselytizing without worrying that they...

I just started DMing a D&D 3.5 game for three players (the story hour is here). While I certainly wouldn't mind adding a player or two, a three person party has worked pretty well so far. My initial analysis is that the party can handle challenges at their encounter level pretty well...

Glad you like it. Sully will be pleased to know that you enjoyed her pirate-y talk. It's a good crew and we're all having a good time. Our next session is Friday, so I wouldn't be surprised if we had another update next week. Morrow

Update Swashbuckling in Freeport now has a story hour. And remember, there's still room for more players at the table. Morrow

X-Crawl is on my list of "I should pick this up as soon as I have a few bucks" books. Which book or books do I absolutely need in order to run an x-crawl game? Morrow

I don't care what they call it. It must be mine! Morrow

The long hair thing in horror movies might have less to do with cultural conventions and more to do with the uncanny valley. Things that look very nearly human, but don't quite make it are very disturbing. You run into that problem in animation, animated people that look to close to the real...

Session 2 - 04/25/2005 (Courtesy of Sully) Yar! Bronson, Sully & Nate started out with Fletcher in a small room full of treasure, recently abandoned by the green, scaly elf broad. While trying to determine what to shove in their pockets first, they were assaulted by a fishman and 4 or 5...

Excellent, that makes it easy. Thanks. As for haggling in Complete Adventurer, using the diplomacy skill to haggle only allows the character as a buyer to bargain for a lower price. It doesn't have a mechanism for trying to get a higher price as a seller. I suppose the NPC you're trying to...

Quick question here, I know that characters selling magic items can expect to receive a base price of 50% of market value. What would be the base price they can expect for selling gems, jewelry, and other items? Morrow

Ahead of Schedule The Story of Nate Black, Pirate Nathaniel Blackthorne was the only son and heir of Horatio Blackthorne, an influential captain in the Thonian navy, and Silenna Chossum, the daughter of a wealthy Elven merchant family. Ho ratio was assigned to a privateer commission and...

In Swashbuckling in Freeport the party agreed to retrieve an object sacred to the pirate god from a group of Sahuagin raiders. They successfully retrieved the object but subsequently discovered that the object is cursed and, if past performance is any indication, will probably kill them and...

How about a rundown of Salvage Operation? Also, can we get the preview blurbs for next issue? Thanks! Morrow

Session 1 - 04/15/2005 Dead Man’s Quest or A Tale of Three Captains Catherine “Sully” Sullivan felt the spell smash it’s way past her defenses and into her mind. In the moment before panic overwhelmed all conscious thought she asked herself, “How did I get into this mess?” Two days earlier...

From the SRD: and later: Are characters under the same restrictions when attacking an undead that has been rebuked as they are when attacking an undead that has been turned? Can a cleric rebuke an undead creature and then make melee attacks while it cowers, or does he have to stand ten feet...

I love it. More campaigns should wrap-up like this. "We defended the city for the last 18 levels, but in the end we just decided to blow it up." I think that's a problem with "Strike on Shatterhorn" and "Asylum." If you saved Cauldron in "Thirteen Cages," there isn't a real compellng reason...
