    Monsters of Suck

    Monsters of Suck? How about the stirge? I hear one of them can suck the life right out of you.... I put my PC's up against a pair of paragon stirges. Oh, the horror.... Atavar

    Clerics and Lesser Deities

    I thought there was some mention in 3.0's Deities and Demigods of a deity's Divine Rank playing a role in the maximum cleric spell level it could grant to its clerics. Perhaps it's an "all or nothing," but I cannot remember. I found no mention of the matter in the 3.5 update document for...

    Is WotC Wrong? - Shield Other and Damage Reduction

    I agree completely. Which is why I was so surprised at WotC's answer. Later, Atavar

    Is WotC Wrong? - Shield Other and Damage Reduction

    I don't have the book with me at the moment, but unless I totally misunderstood my player the item explicitly states that it does stack. Can someone with the Magic Item Comendium handy verify this for me please? It is an armor crystal that grants DR 5/-. I don't remember the name of it...

    Is WotC Wrong? - Shield Other and Damage Reduction

    I mentioned that to my player as well. He didn't even try to fight me on my ruling. I think this was one of those rare instances where even the player thought that an "official" rule would be too powerful for the players. Thank goodness he doesn't want to play a planar shephard.... ;) Later...

    Is WotC Wrong? - Shield Other and Damage Reduction

    Hello Everyone, One of my players recently asked WotC customer service about how DR works with the shield other spell. Here is the gist of WotC's answer: - Split the damage per the shield other spell, and then apply each person's DR separately to the damage received. - For example, the...

    A Question About Eric Noah

    The value of pi no longer goes out to infinite decimal places because Eric Noah gave it a roundhouse kick to the face.

    Lost 3/21/2007

    I considered that, too, but all of the close-up scenes with Ben (in his room, outside the door to Locke's dad) were indoors, so I'd think that the sun/lighting/time of day would not be a factor. I do know people's eyes can look different on different days--and I suppose you could be...

    Lost 3/21/2007

    Ben's eyes change color. In the earlier parts of the episode, his eyes are dark. I thought that odd, because I thought his eyes were blue. But then at the very end of the episode, his eyes are a bright blue. I am convinced there are two different men who look like Ben. Or else his eye color...

    Glyph Seals from Magic Item Compendium

    What's with the smarmy attitude? Unless I am missing something, per the DMG the only restrictions on spells in a potion are spell level (3rd level or less) and casting time (less than one minute). I don't see any restrictions on target. Or were you just kidding? Later, Atavar

    POLL: Is "In Remembrance" Thread Creepy?

    Hey there, I came across the following thread for the first time today: "In Remembrance: 2007" - http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?t=184165 My gut reaction is that this thread stikes me as a little creepy. I guess it shouldn't--newspapers have obituaries, after all, and this thread kind...

    Glyph Seals from Magic Item Compendium

    Basically, here is how the glyph seal works: 1. Caster casts any arcane or divine spell (2nd level or lower for glyph seal, 5th level or lower for greater glyph seal) into the glyph seal. This is called "keying" the seal. 2. Caster sticks the seal against any nonmagical, nonliving object...

    Glyph Seals from Magic Item Compendium

    I looked up the rings of spell storing, and while there are several differences, the bottom line is that it costs a LOT more to get a ring of spell storing than it does to get a greater glyph seal. For the righteous might example, that spell is 5th level, so it would require a greater glyph...

    Magic Item Compendium and DMG Only for Magic Items?

    I guess my initial question should be worded differently. Basically, I see a number of reasons for something to be included in the MIC: 1. It was in another book (DMG or other), but something needed correcting/updating (price, errata, whatever). 2. It was in a book other than the DMG, nothing...

    Glyph Seals from Magic Item Compendium

    Hello Everyone, I wanted to run by you the use of magic items one of my players is asking me about to see if any of you can see a problem with it. There are two magic items on p. 161 of the new Magic Item Compendium called "glyph seal" and "glyph seal, greater." They appear to work like a...

    Magic Item Compendium

    Glaring Error in MIC I really like the book, but I did find an error that really annoys me. On p. 5 the MIC says that each +1 enhancement bonus to armor and shields adds 2 to the hardness and 10 to the h.p. of the item. On p. 27 it says that each +1 enhancement bonus to a weapon adds 1 to the...

    Magic Item Compendium and DMG Only for Magic Items?

    Thanks for the feedback, guys. Screaming and screaming burst do, indeed, appear in the book, so it looks like my example is moot anyway. I know those abilities as sonic and sonic burst from Player's Guide to Faerun. In what other book were they renamed to screaming and screaming burst...
