Ok, I'll explain the situation fairly briefly, I play the party fighter, my friend the party barbarian. As part of a treasure we found a Manual of Gainful Exercise. The player for the barbarian instantly claims the book, to which I scoff and claim my ownership to. I cite the reason being that...

I've got a question. How exactly does one become a lich. What spells are cast and what product would I find them in? What are the details of the ritual? What are the requirements? My pc's got trapped and captured by the henchmen of a nefarious wizard who has been a thorn in their side for...

Legends and Lairs' Wildscape offers the following alternate ranger combat styles. I won't post full details because I'm not sure if any of this is OGL, but I will give a listing and an brief explanation. 1) Two-Handed Fighting (Self explanatory) 2) Ranger Knight (One-handed weapons and a...

One of my players is questioning the possibility of having a character throw a throwing axe with each hand. Are there any rules specifically allowing this or is just not posssible? What would be the penalties and how would TWF factor into the equation? I see no real problems with this in...

About 4 months ago, I MADE my girlfriend read the Dark Elf trilogy so she could understand what I was talking about when I was babbling incoherantly about drow. By made, I mean I gave her the books and refused to talk to her until she finished reading them. She is yet to ask for the Icewind...

Tav could you please include this message to our troops from me: I would like to personally thank all of our soldiers (and their families), who are fighting in Iraq for the sacrifice they are making on behalf of America and the world. Words cannot describe the depth nor the breadth of my...

In terms of uniting, unite those orcs who follow Gruumsh and those orcs who follow Malar by declaring a war on the elves. Both gods have a huge enmity with the elves as a result of getting punked up by Corellon. For more details consult Elaine Cunningham's "Evermeet: Island of the Elves." It...

Got really drunk on a few (by few I mean a 750ml bottle emptied) captain morgan's private stock, coke, and twist a lime. Puked and settled down with a 6 pack.

I'm going to be starting up a campaign that will involve the pc's leading an army. Without going to much into details, what books would you advise my players to read to help give them a better idea of military tactics, logistics, etc. I'd like books that can show practical examples of various...

I bought a bottle of Crown Royal one time and ended up with a dice bag as an added bonus, does that count?

OOOOOH MY GOD!!!! Its gonna get you!! Look out, here it comes!!!! Run away!

I've always wondered how charisma played into intimidate. Now call me a pansy, but if some 6'4" 280 lb horribly-scarred, foaming from the mouth half-orc (cha=6) is trying to scare the bejesus out of me, he's going to be a lot more successful then some pretty boy fancypants paladin (cha=16)...

Most damage- Sword of Babel Maelstrom. If my memory serves me correctly and this is going back quite a ways, the sword originally appeared in Dragon and later resurfaced in Encyclopedia Magica? (2e product listing magic items it was a 4-5 part anthology). The sword could do like 250 d6 damage...

Yeah, I've restricted characters from a DM standpoint. Sometimes you just get sick of the same players playing the same character. I've had players that only wanted barbarians, players that only wanted rogues, players that only wanted divine spellcasters of lg gods. Eventually it became...

Have any of you guys and gals out there ever player in a campaign where the DM assigned characters to players? This can mean any number of things: 1) These following characters (elf fighter, dwarf barbarian, etc) must be chosen divide them amongst yourself 2) You're character died. Luckily, I...

They're are an abundancy of feats that can also boost ac. It really depends on the 2 characters. In example, in a game I was once in the party barbarian complained incessantly of him having the lowest AC of the front line warriors, mind you this character was completely worked up towards...

I'm not sure of your alignment or race, but I know a npc in one of my games was running a slave trade. Human babies tended to fetch the highest prices as far as babies go given they mature first. Dwarven Young Adults are bigtime sellers because they will work 20 hrs and produce top knotch...
