    [OOC] Hall of the Dwarven Lord

    Saw this earlier, and figured I'd let the chance go to someone else if they got to it before I had a time to respond. However, it seems to be still unclaimed! That won't do! I'll write something up. CHARACTER NAME : Ranit RACE (CR) : Human CLASS (LEVEL) : Conjurer 2 ... NET LEVEL : 2...

    The City Arcana [3.5][Mature][Dark]

    Arcane Trickster, Suel Archanamach, Magical Trickster, Daggerspell Mage, and that diviner/rogue PrC whose name escapes me right now. Also, you may want to consider the feat Ascetic Mage especially if you're going to take a lot of Sorcerer levels. A Ninja/Battle Sorcerer with Ascetic Mage is...

    Tell me about Undermountain

    Many go in. Few come out. Attrition is brutal. Losses due to death or simply getting lost are common - and you can't just teleport out. If memory serves, most of the place is teleport-blocked.

    Eliminating Eastern Flavor From D&D?

    I agree with this statement, but the OP is the one who asked to remove Eastern influences - thereby setting up discussion of what is historically Eastern and what is not. And, you know, people like to speculate. :P

    Eliminating Eastern Flavor From D&D?

    Remove pears and spices (pawsplay got most of the other things, like silks, linens, coins, and paper.) Remove tea. I'm assuming this is not an attempt at very subtle sarcasm. If your statement holds, then there is no need to remove anything, since as one of the first page posters pointed...

    What do I need to play online

    Your giant, throbbing BRAIN. Seriously, I ran campaigns for years that predated pretty much all the tools now available - and 4e is supposed to be simplified from earlier editions. It's quite doable with mIRC, AIM, or anything where you can send and receive text. Not trying to be unhelpful -...

    Narration: 100+ Ways To Use A Healing Surge *In-Character*

    113. "Well, I got better." (Monty Python - "She turned you into a newt?" "Well, I got better." It only works if you do it with the plaintive voice.)

    Using questionable referents in gaming

    I find a certain brand of painful humour in relating game elements to pop culture. For example, I once ruled that Otto's Irresistible Dance (which forces the victim to dance in place), a powerful spell with a long and storied history, was in fact the Caramelldansen (a cute, inane, and...

    The City Arcana [3.5][Mature][Dark]

    Sorry I wasn't clear about this earlier. I'm having everyone submit applications in this thread, then reviewing them and approving players. Approved players will then put up their characters in the RG. :) This avoids the clutter of interested parties leaving extra sheets in the RG that...

    The City Arcana [3.5][Mature][Dark]

    I look forward to reviewing it then. :) I'll be answering questions and accepting submissions all week, so it's certainly not too late. Your backstory is not bad. Go ahead and write up a character for me to review. Your sheet has a few errors. You might want to fix them before I formally...

    Thank you. Provided that I am properly credited, you may borrow the Mystic Knight class with my blessing. :)

    The City Arcana [3.5][Mature][Dark]

    Thank you! I very much like the level of detail that went into your writeup. (Other prospective players, take note :P) To avoid characters being underequipped due to low rolls, let's use average starting gold values. Thank you. :) Your backstory ideas are pretty much dead on - public...

    3.5e pbem seeking new players

    I see. Thank you for answering in detail. :) At this time, I think I will bow out and leave it to the other interested parties who posted here. Good luck!

    The City Arcana [3.5][Mature][Dark]

    Thanks. I think that I will take this week to review applications, and start towards the beginning of next week. Anything that fits, really. All of those examples are valid. While you are limited to LA +0 options, you don't have to be human - all arcane practitioners have been displaced or...

    3.5e pbem seeking new players

    I am experienced as a 3.5 DM and player but I have little experience with PBEM. What is the time commitment involved?

    EN World New GMs, players, read the first post in this thread! (updated 5/21)

    The City Arcana is a 3.5 campaign that will deal with some mature themes. It is centered around the suppression of arcane magic worldwide by violent and tyrannical means. Now recruiting 2-3 experienced players.

    The City Arcana [3.5][Mature][Dark]

    [IC thread is up!] [RG is up!] Magic is disappearing from the land. A world-spanning coalition, backed by the will of tyrannical priests, the machinations of unscrupulous nobles, and the superstitions of peasantry, seeks to eliminate all wielders of arcane forces. They have largely...

    Death in Freeport 3.5 Re-Recruiting (Closed)

    No problem. I don't have time to DM a large group but I do have time to just run a character, so I naturally thought this would be a great place to ask. Good luck with your campaign! :)
