Per the Stronghold Builders Guide: Earth: 10 hp/foot of thickness, Hardness 2, Break DC 10 + 3 per foot of thickness. Wood: 10 hp/inch of thickness, Hardness 5, Break DC 14 + 1/inch

Even better, look for Burlington Inkjet Window Decals from Paris Business Products (www.pariscorp.com). 5 sheets of 8.5x11 clear decal stuff you can run through your printer. I picked mine up at an office supply store.

Quite a few, actually. Silver Samurai - a samurai in chrome armor Killer Frost - transparent blue gal in robe. Good for ghosts, etc. Scarlet Witch - spellcaster in seductive red outfit Mole Man - short guy in robes with staff and big goggles. Gnome artificer? Mandarin - flying Oriental wizard...

If the extra damage from a critical hit can put a strike "over the hump" for damage reduction (which I believe is the case), then sneak attack should as well. In both cases the extra damage comes from striking a particularly vulnerable/painful/vital spot on the foe (eye, groin, heart, whatever)...

Um, no, that works out to a combined miss chance of 60%. Math-wise, two miss chances of 29% would equal a single 50% miss chance, so call it 30% invisible, 30% incorporeal. But 3.5 wants to fit everything into the 20-40-50 progression, so they "rounded down" to 20%. A 40% + 20% combo also...

"Any successful attack dispels an image." The attack doesn't have to do any damage - a successful Grapple, for example, would dispel an image. So you're correct, incorporeality would not apply to the images - it specifically negates damage, and damage is irrelevant to the image.

Non-running jump(s) as the "run-up" to a running jump? Sure, as long as the other restrictions are followed (moving in a straight line, etc.). I would, however, rule that you lose your Dex bonus to AC while airborne. This would most likely come into play when making a very long jump (longer...

However, note that this is the legacy founding rituals, for creating a new legacy item. While it eventually becomes clear from context that least=6th though 10th, lesser=11th through 16th, greater=17th through 20th, as far as I can tell NOWHERE in the book is this explicitly spelled out. Not...

Yep. Fighting a corrupted treant, the dice were against me. Kept missing with the swords but hitting with the hoof-kicks. Finally said "F%&* this" and just started kicking on every attack. It worked, too.

I've heard "lich" pronounced "leek", like the vegetable. ("Hans, run! It's an undead onion!") I've always pronounced it to rhyme with "which". a C in Greek words is always a K sound, AFAIK, so "KIM-er-uh" not "SHIM-er-uh", "HERK-you-lees" not "her-SOOLS" (thankfully the Disney movie seems to...

"Spring Attach and Reach" :lol: "The troll reaches out with its long, gangly arms, stretching the spring as it does so." (rolls dice) "Successful touch attack - it hooks the end of the spring onto your armor and lets go. SPROIIINNNGGGGG! Make a Str check." (PC fails check) "The powerful...

A nomadic centauress seeks adventure and companionship in an attempt to forget the horrors of the mutual slaughter of her tribe and a tribe of gnolls. A shy young lizardwoman, shunned by her tribe as a "runt" and "weakling", involuntarily achieves shamanic enlightenment and goes forth into the...

While everyone is piling on the "Good-aligned assassin? No way!" debate, I think I should point out that the player didn't choose Bard/Assassin, he chose Bard/Ninja. Ninja and Assassin are not 1-to-1 equivalent. Historically, Ninja were primarily spies and information-gatherers, specializing...

I've been helping DM an "upgraded" version of that module (party is larger than 4 and they're all 7-8th level), and we made Daros an half-fiend satyr based on that pic. The party hasn't encountered him yet, and I'm still trying to decide what class(es) he should have. The pic implies some fair...

How are you getting the stone texture in the first floor tile? I've been able to do marble-like stuff similar to the second floor tile but the first one has a more "gritty" texture that I like.

AH, you've just cleared up a mystery for me! I'd come across a couple of packs of strange little humanoid figures, labeled "Dollies" and "Advanced Dollies". I figured they were supposed to be some sort of constructs or golems, but the sculpting wasn't very detailed :) so I never bothered to...

First memorable character (AD&D 1ed): "Snakey" the lizard-woman magic-user. Her actual name was Saanekii but humans always mispronounced it "Snakey" and she got tired of correcting them. Her brother "Sneaky" (a thief) died early on, but Snakey survived many adventures and I later "resurrected"...

GURPS calls this the Ethnic Badass syndrome, referring to any weapon or device given exceptional game stats simply because it's "cool" or associated with an exotic group (e.g. ninja, Thuggee, etc.). Ironically, the original thread was about, yes, the katana.

Nope. Per the MM, a lycanthrope receives Con bonuses to the animal hit dice for the animal-form Con, and all other hit dice for the non-animal-form Con. "For example, a human commoner with a Constitution score of 11 as a human and a Constitution score of 15 as a wolf has 1d4 plus 2d8+4 hit...

Having read the first adventure, I'd recommend either a bard or a Charisma-focused "face" rogue with ranks in Knowledge(history). Judging by what we've seen so far, it looks like social interaction (Diplomacy, Gather Info, et al) will be important, and various ancient/obscure legends and...
