    Forked - Level-Based Systems and Non-Heroic PCs

    When I want PCs to start out heroic, I just start them at 3rd or 6th level or somewhere inbetween. Or 10th-level or so in a few cases. But at least I have the option of starting them at 1st-level instead. And the choice of ability score generation and HP determination also affects the...

    "Necessary Evil" IC

    Gemini Both Geminis wait to strike as soon as a new enemy comes into their lines of sight, or if Brick loses hold of his foe, in which case they'll blast that K'tharen instead. Fire Bolt and Toxotes blast on whichever foe first shows up or escapes the grapple. And after this round I'm gonna...

    "Necessary Evil" IC

    Gemini "DO try not to destroy what we came here for...." the Helis-look-alike Gemini insists, looking about at the destruction Brick and Sorceress just unleashed. Then he launches another Toxotes attack at the remaining K'tharen, as the other Gemini rains down a Fire Bolt on that same...

    Help - New Blinding look?

    Ugh, I preferred the classic black look. Time to change my settings I guess. Probably still gonna be this obnoxious bright white/yellow/lilac color whenever I visit though, before logging in each time, since I don't stay logged in 24/7. My first impression was that the new look was as...

    "Necessary Evil" IC

    Gemini Gemini begins chanting and gesturing as soon as Brick jumps down into the warehouse. He steps over by the edge of the new hole in the roof and sends a magical Fire Bolt hurtling down at one of the alien guards inside! At the same time, Gemini's 'brother' steps over to the edge wearing...

    Holy sheepdip - wotc to republish old editions

    .......much as I'd love to pick up some old D&D products, I don't think I'd do so if I had to get a DDI subscription. Least of all if the only way to view the material was by going online during the subscription every time. And printing it all out would be a hassle. Better if I could just...

    "Necessary Evil" IC

    Gemini steps back through the portal, followed by his 'brother' as he says "Follow me. You'll have to break in through the roof." Pocket Ultimate Power describes the Portal extra as "You open a portal or gateway between two points as a free action. The portal is 5 feet-by-5 feet in size...

    "Necessary Evil" IC

    Gemini frowns and starts chanting and gesturing again, fully aware that this is going to draw some attention to him. But he casts the spell anyway and Teleports himself out of there, back outside and this time on the roof of the warehouse. Then he chants some more to open the portal to the...

    "Necessary Evil" IC

    Gemini Gemini breathes a sigh of relief, but isn't ready to turn on his flashlight and potentially draw attention to himself yet. He takes a look around from where he stands, trying to get some bearings.

    "Necessary Evil" IC

    Gemini Gemini grits his teeth in annoyance, but focuses and chants, trying to teleport 'blindly' into the building, hoping for the best..... He tries to aim for somewhere inside near the end of the warehouse opposite the main entrance. The other Gemini, wearing the replica Heracles Armor...

    How much TV do you watch?

    I watch.....lessee......3 to 8 hours of TV each day, though only an hour or two on weekends. However, at least half the time that I watch TV is just listening while I eat my meals, work on the laptop, take care of chores around the house, or play with the dog. Most days I only watch or listen...

    D&D 3.x 3.5 Psion Powers known

    In the 3.0 Psionics Handbook, the "+d" for psion powers known indicates a power learned from the psion's primary discipline. It's an extra power learned (so psions learn one extra power of each power level, but those particular powers have to be chosen from their primary discipline). But you...

    "Necessary Evil" IC

    Gemini "I suppose I will just have to rely on your portal to the Undergrounders then, Sorceress...... Since it looks like we have a raid on our hands, I'll need to open a portal into the warehouse for the rest of you once I get inside. Wait here for a bit, and I'll find a suitable warehouse I...

    Holy sheepdip - wotc to republish old editions

    I would honestly be quite interested in buying some old D&D materials from WotC if they republished them......never really got to try anything older than 2E AD&D, and didn't get to pick up much of 2E before it went out of print. So there's definitely some books (or boxed sets? hopefully?) that...

    "Necessary Evil" IC

    ".......Perhaps the snazzy attire has mislead you to believe us wealthy businessmen, which may well be true, but even so I certainly wouldn't see fit to prove your assumptions right or wrong. I rarely needed 'contacts' to find, learn, or acquire anything before the invasion, and could quite...

    Methods for a human to gain darkvision 60ft at by level 7 using core three books

    He said core 3 books. Feral template isn't core. A Wand of Darkvision would cost 2,250 GP at 3rd-level caster, getting you 60-ft. darkvision for 3 hours with each use. The spell is touch-range, so the wand's user doesn't have to be the one it's cast on. And since it's a Ranger spell as well...

    pneumatik's WotBS 3: Shelter from the Storm

    Staret Liiros Tivaniel of the Aquilline Cross Liiros is silent at first, considering whether or not it would be wise to talk with this random drunkard, let alone follow him anywhere else. The elf hesitates for a minute; he'd really rather find a tavern that was less full, before finding an inn...

    "Necessary Evil" IC

    Gemini The Geminis just follow silently, brooding. As the others discuss a deal with the Undergrounders, the taller Gemini says "Sure, we'll bring you some supplies. Just lead us back the way we came and we'll go pick up some stuff. No problem. Acquisitions are practically my specialty. Or...

    D&D 3.x 3.5 Succubus Lichfiend Cr Madness

    Given that Succubi gain bonuses to all ability scores, DR that works against most weapons, a hefty natural armor bonus, claws, energy drain when grappling, and a host of resistances, immunities, and special abilities, I'd say that paladin and cleric should be considered associated class levels...
