    EN WORLD DUNGEON: 16 months until 5e. Let's start building.

    This may be too early and I don't want to stifle creativity, but I plan to avoid WoTC Intellectual Property. I have no clue if 5E will even have a GSL, though I'm betting it wont.

    Show us your NPC adventurers

    12 point build?! Gah! In the sandbox game I'm in we used a 1st evel cleric NPC right out of the book, but since our PC cleric consistently doesn't show up, the NPC has made it to level 2, though I don't know if the stats are the same. Her name changed cause the DM forgot what he said the...

    EN WORLD DUNGEON: 16 months until 5e. Let's start building.

    Sounds like fun. My first thought is, why did they choose to build the tomb or pyramid where they did? Because it was a place of power. Perhaps the slumbering grave of a forgotten primordial power or a portal to his or her or its realm. Of course you'd want to build your vault here. Not...

    I found a path

    I think the most important factor of multiclassing in Pathfinder is that unless you plan on a particular theme, like a warrior who dabbled in magic, the classes are designed to have fewer "dead levels". I.e. you gain something cool everytime you level up. See the difference between a 3.5...

    Skull & Shackles Player's Guide out

    Those are two of the Pathfinder Iconics doing the scrubbing so the artist and developers knew what they were doing.

    Skull & Shackles Player's Guide out

    It is 30 pages of piraty goodness. The campaign traits also serve as the backstory of how you got shanghaied or pressed into service. None of them are voluntary, though I suppose you can work that out with the DM. It includes pirate weapons, ship to ship combat rules, counters, and a sidebar...

    Another culinary revelation

    Good Eats is a pretty good show. I'm not sure it is my favorite, but I guess that is because it requires me to decide which is my favorite. The Two Fat Ladies are fun to watch as well. I kinda like Nadia's Bitchin Kitchen. Those 3 shows come off the top of my head. Slightly off topic, The...

    Random questions, well, mostly about eidolons

    Just before falling asleep last night I remember another question, but didn't want to disturb myself, so I didn't write it down and now I forget what it was.

    Random questions, well, mostly about eidolons

    Let us say you are playing a summoner with a bipedal eidolon. Will the share spell ability allow you to cast Enlarge Person on your eidolon? Next, an eidolon stays around until reaching negative CON. Does that mean it is conscious at -1 hp? Staggered at 0? Does it follow the normal...

    My PCs are horrible people!

    In one of my games the other players have apparently decided they want to be ruthless bastards. Well, two of them, the wizard and druid. The DM in the first session basically said "Well, in this place, you guys are basically the law" and so it unleashed the dark side of their gaming...

    A Short Story About Love--FRINGE Season IV/AWWP #16

    I haven't seen every episode, but yeah, I'm sorta not feeling it. I get the angst of the love extra dimensional triangle, but I'd like to see more about the first people and the machine and stuff that apparently isn't important anymore. I'm thinking he forgets he's not doing Lost anymore.

    Pathfinder 1E Making my first Pathfinder character...

    After reading this and the rest of the thread I compared the text in my dead tree book to the Paizo PRD and the Pathfinder SRD at the d20pfsrd site and they are the same (well, the Paizo site seems to actually have an omission of some words in the middle of a sentence, but I'm assuming it is a...

    What boardgames are you playing in 2012?

    I have a couple of friends who love Thunderstone but I find it too much about wondering around "town" trying to build your deck while picking off the weaker monsters in the dungeon. Dungeon Petz I will have to play again, and probably again, before I get a handle on the magic rainbow of pet...

    What boardgames are you playing in 2012?

    Just in time for Merric's review, we played Lords of Waterdeep last night. I liked it and would play again. We wondered how balanced some of the goals were when some are worth 4 VP's and others are worth 25. And the Intrgue cards add a nice interaction factor you don't always see with...

    I need a good aligned goblin god

    Maybe the goblin could worship the god of another race? I vaguely recall a goblin goddess of fertility called Vershnot or something like that in a 3rd party d20 book. I also think TSR had a chaotic neutral goblinoid goddess of motherhood...maybe it was another monstrous race, but maybe a...

    Pathfinder 1E Good generic Pathfinder modules for levels 1-5?

    One of the Free RPG Day modules by Paizo is generic. Actually a couple are pretty generic, one even being, dare I say it, boring (fluff wise at least).

    What boardgames are you playing in 2012?

    This Tuesday we played a 6 person game of Mundus Novus, which I would have won if not for another player managing to shoot the moon which instantly wins the game. We also played a card game about trick taking, but I can't remember the name, Yard Sale or something like that. Bargain Hunter...

    MAR Barker 1929 - 2012, RIP

    I'll have to ask Carl Brodt the next time I see him if he ever played with MAR Barker. I've never really done much reading about the world but something about the phrase "Empire of the Petal Throne" has been pleasing to the ear. R.I.P.

    Reincarnate and stats

    Some people like the randomness of Reincarnate. Others have no choice because their DM either doesn't like the idea of raising dead characters or has restrictions. I'm currently playing a game where the only sanctioned time to raise the dead is during a holiday festival. But because druids...

    Cleric of Calistria Build

    He kinda already has Bless, since Bane is basically its unloved cousin. I wouldn't choose Summon Monster at 1st level because it'll only last 1 round and it takes you a whole round to cast it.
