    Rationalizing Savage Species

    Well, we have a race in my DM's campaign that we've been waiting for Savage Species to come out in order to make them PC compliant. Now, starting them from level 1 isn't an issue now, because the group is currently 10th level, but in a campaign where such did occur, we're been discussing the...

    Put yourself in a bucket, for great justice!

    Tactician/Storyteller I have to admit that I do like powers, but equally as much as I enjoy employing PC skills, or anything else in a well thought out plan. As for the Storyteller bit, I think my time as a DM bleeds through a lot when I'm a player.

    Who would worship the following?

    Are you roundabout suggesting the high priest be an eyepatch wearing, peglegged feline?

    Spell Design Help: Activating wands at a distance

    Thank you kindly. Useful on its own, and to reverse engineer for lesser versions.

    Spell Design Help: Activating wands at a distance

    Hello there My character in a friend's campaign has some downtime coming up, and the extra funds for spell research. My last aquired feat was "Craft Wand" and I'd like to get a little extra mileage out of it. So, I was thinking of designing a spell to let my character activate a wand he'd...

    BtVS Spoilers (02/03/03)

    I have to say that thus far I have not liked Kennedy, but I'm not sure if it is the actress, or the character I don't like. It could be the character as she's seemed used to getting what she wants. Known since she was very little that she was a Slayer, and a very wealthy family. She didn't...

    Does 3.5e break the Epic Level Handbook?

    Well, I haven't been keeping careful track of the 3.5 threads, but the only Epic level invalidation I came across is apparently spelled out in Savage Species. As I understand it, the "Beast" monster designation has been removed, with creatures being redefined as Magical Beasts or Animals....so...

    Longest campaign you've run/played in?

    I marked down as a couple of years, but it was really just sort of over 19 months. We played a group of characters from first level to thirtieth, and helped our DM forge the mythological age of his campaign world. There was a lot of emotional investment in that little group that set out from...

    Draconic Epic spellcasting question

    See, that was what made me curious since they cast cleric spells as a sorceror....would that make them able to use life an heal as arcane....in any case, it matters not. I had undecided skill points that are now going in knowledge (religion)

    Draconic Epic spellcasting question

    Hi all, Would an advanced dragon, say a red or a blue, with the ability to cast cleric spells in with its sorceror selection and the Epic Spellcasting feats have access to the Heal and Life spell seeds?

    What is your favorite character you've never played?

    I've had an odd urge lately to play a laid back, halfling druid with an animist bent on the philosophy. Most of the druid PCs and prominent NPCs on my DM's world have been human or elven and have either been ruthless enforcers of the balance, or borderline feral. I think a relaxed, subtle...

    Gandalf said WHAT!?

    This is completely off topic Allanon, though the link is very amusing, but is your avatar there Yuber from the Suikoden games? He looks familiar.

    Deities' favoured weapons

    I agree that the cleric does not fit the feel of most priests in fantasy fiction. It does, however fit the tradition of D&D, possibly in area of a sacred cow. In one of the games I play in, this has been dealt with using domains. With the logic that the most warlike deities are the ones who...

    Call of Cthulhu: Advice needed for a new GM

    Actually, I just bought the book myself, and have started reading this evening with intent to run a one on one campaign for a friend of mind. I'll be playing close attention to the advice here as well. Thanks for conveniently bringing up the topic ^_^

    Castles of Crystal, Wars of Genocide!

    Well, that was a well rounded, and far more thorough answer than expected. Typically SHARK, and I thank you for it. I think you've nailed down perhaps why your world seems the most logical as far as high fantasy goes. As you mentioned with the Vallorean legionnaire, you've figured out what...

    Castles of Crystal, Wars of Genocide!

    I think the problem with many campaigns, both homebrewed and published, SHARK, is that they simply aren't built to handle games of that level range. Even when there are people of levels beyond 20, they tend to be exceptions rather than the rule. You seemed to build your campaign world with...

    Cleric wants fighter BAB

    Indeed, multiclassing seems like the best option. It would only take a few included fighter levels to let him eventually get the fourth interative attack, and he'll have spells that will surely make up for not having the rest of the BAB.

    I wish D&D could have been more heroic

    I would agree that rampant resurrections do take a lot of steam out of a good heroic death. In the game world I play in, this has been delt with in a few ways. Typically, even clerics powerful enough to cast such a spell will only do so at great personal sacrifice, or with the presence of some...
