    The Crypt of the Shadow Taker Chapter 1.5 The Crypt of the ShadowTaker - Chapter 1.5 The Laughing Rogue struck his finger against the inert golem, igniting it like a tindertwig. His other hand produced a long and twisted pipe from out of nowhere, which he proceeded to light. He placed it...

    Adventure Path starting with Sunless Citadel - Have you tried to run the whole thing?

    We started to but gave up. Sunless was nice, Forge of fury was nice. Speaker in Dreams was just silly (our DM thought). Heart of Nightfang spire was a travesty of a module and I warn people off it any chance I get. At that point we pretty much got off the adventure path.

    What can a high level, reincarnated druid do with A Thousand Faces?

    Oddly this exact thing happened in our game. They could get close. Remember that Thousand Faces works like Alter Self, and alter self has this line: If the character uses this spell to create a disguise, the character gets a +10 bonus on the character's Disguise check So if you're a halfling...

    Epic Arcane Archer: Overpowered?

    Overpowered compared to what? Balance is only meaningful if you balance against other things. Did you compare to other level 30 characters? If not, then I doubt you can say it's overpowered.

    Interlude Interlude The last month of doing basically nothing had been a wonderful respite. It seemed like we rarely had a chance to stop and catch our breath, and the time was made doubly pleasant by knowing that events on the Prime were on hold so there was no guilt at leaving something...

    Item Creation a headache

    Yes, by book value it's 2,000gp. The above calculation is correct. Is it worth more than that? Probably. Is it hideously expensive? I don't think so. The AC and Save bonus will be superceded by other items, leaving only the protection element really as the big bang. I'd probably raise the...

    Why is Meepo the Mighty saving the day so often? (spoilers for Sunless Citadel!)

    It only gets worse. Meepo was taken in by our groups paladin, and has become his squire and gone through some alignment shift. He has saved the party wizard from being eaten by wolves. He was not mentally dominated when an animus showed up. He taught the paladin's mount, a dire wolf, to play...

    The World Around You: This is just some background material for the readers to help understand the nature of the campaign world that this all takes place in. The characters are now mostly 19th level, and we are gearing up for epic levels. In some worlds this might be common and in others...

    Are we Taking 10/20 enough?

    Drives me bonkers too. I'm in a campaign that started at level 1 and is now up to about level 19. And it's just a lot easier to take 10 most of the time. But people constantly forget about take 10 and take 20. One player's tongue-in-cheek response: "Hey it's called the 'd20 system', not the...

    A question about enchanting arrows and other oddness...

    If you want more phase arrows, why not just create an epic level feat that gives you more phase arrows per day?

    A question about enchanting arrows and other oddness...

    Whether the arrow would be unbreakable in normal use is up to you as a DM to decide if you want that hassle in your world. If you do it, you are basically RADICALLY changing the way that magic ammunition works in your world. The items are priced as disposable items. If they were reusable, I'd...

    Bow proficiencies

    Sword and Fist does indeed have an optional rule that allows people to shift bow feats around each time they level. So you could start with weapon focus (composite longbow) and when you level, shift it to (longbow) then level again and change it back. Personally I think there's no reason to be...

    Would you like salt & pepper with that Spellbook?

    The phrasing seems solid. As for eating, you're being literal. What about cooking the pages into a pulp and then eating the batch? Be a lot easier than chewing paper. Of course, it's really cruel. You're basically taking away the entire ability of this character, and rendering him destitute as...

    D&D 3.x Greater Magic Weapon 3.5

    Must every third thread devolve into being another "archery is too powerful" thread? I ran the numbers. Melee and archery are more balanced than most people think.

    Aftermath: As we recovered from the fight, I spoke to Hammer and to Aylwyn. I was very troubled by the creatures that had we had been fighting of late. We all knew of creatures that were nearly immune to normal weapons, or those not highly enchanted. But the weapons we carried (or in my case...
