The 6th level clerical spell Forbiddance in the PHB is a good candidate -- prevents ALL teleportation and even extra-planar transport into the area. It's pricy -- if you want to password protect it it's 6000gp per 60ft cube, but bad guys are usually wading in dinero. And it's permanent. A...

You don't get an extra partial action from Expert Tactician, you get an extra attack -- I think it has to be a melee attack.

You can't store stuff into Gloves of Storing as a free action -- only retrieve it.

"Flower-chewers"? Please. It's daisy-munchers. Get it right.

Re: [News] Role-player decapitated You see, this is why I don't LARP. This, and having some small shred of dignity and self-respect.

AHA! Sir Whisker's post reminds me of a complete and total screw-the-player ruling I made awhile ago . . . a LONG while ago, as it was my very first "campaign" (though I am loathe to call it that). I think I was maybe 13 years old, if that. This was Basic D&D. A guy created a 1st level...

Again, no way in hell he's going to kill the party while in the form of a 2-foot long rat. He's meat on a stick -- probably literally. This is a huge amount of comic relief waiting to happen -- clearly, this munchkin thinks he'll turn hybrid when he "turns". Not into a lil' rat.

I'm confused about those taking Outlanders to task for making the fighter/wererat go nuts and attack the party. It says in the MM that the check to resist an involuntary change is DC25, and the check to return to humanoid form is DC20 or DC25 (depending on the moon). I doubt this fighter is...

Did the tentacle pass through a threatened area? (Does solid earth count?) Not sure you made the wrong call there, unless the tentacle tried to start a grapple without Improved Grabbing. I'm trying to think of a boneheaded mistake that I've made DM'ing -- a rules call that screwed the players...

Bitching "anonymously" on the EN boards, of course. Engaging in a boring and cryptic discussion that no one cares about vs. doing actual work at work. -- PS No damage . . . Nature's Miracle is truly a wonderous thing.

Champagne. --- Incognito -- it might have something to do with the little brown presents he left next to the bed . . .

Swim speed. Little rat-dog vs my bedroom rug.

So basically it's a 9th level spell whose only big effect is giving three types of elemental immunity; the DR is more easily pierced than Stoneskin, the +2 bonus to ability scores is pretty trivial (as you can walk around with triple-empowered double-extended Bull's Strengths and such at that...

"Why did you give us so much XP?"

Okay, I'm confused about something. They RAN from the MONK? How exactly did that work? :D

A fantasy setting with an Unknown Armies feel/theme would be perfect. Unfortunately, I'm not sure it's ever been made.

If anything, it seems to me to be a little underpowered. I'd knock up the DR to 20/+3 (at least) and maybe bump up the abilities +4 each (and make them Divine bonuses). I mean, at 17th level, what opponent isn't going to breeze past most DRs?

Well, if you're playing an Epic game, then I don't think it's too powerful -- I mean, what does that weapon cost, a couple million? Epic NPCs will, I hope, have at least mod fortification on their armor (which, bcs it protects against crits, will protect against vorpal attacks). Epic creatures...

Which immediately causes the DM in me to do some quick math . . . +4 for Brilliant Energy, +5 for Vorpal, +1 for Keen, +1 for regular enhancement . . . that's a +11 enhancement bonus! In other words, Epic, and completely illegal (or way way too expensive) under normal rules. For shame :). The...

I'll second that -- on both counts (the rules lawyer problem and the twink problem). A friend of mine decided to run a one-shot module -- Bastion of Broken Souls. My 18th level cleric of Flahrnahghahn can get his AC up to 59 (core rules only, mind you), can cast Miracle up to 7 times a day...
