    Insight's "The Shadow of Set" - IC Thread

    Avardis stares dumbly after Droban for a moment, taken off guard by the sudden decision. He fumbles in his pouch for a few coins and drops them on the table. Then he hurries out after the retreating dwarf, Besha spreading his wings for balance and grumbling in protest.

    Insight's "Shadow of Set" - OOC Thread

    Ok, character posted and first in-character post up. The only thing I don't have yet is my full equipment list. I don't have my books, so I don't know how much I have to spend. I'll try to get it done tonight.

    Insight's "The Shadow of Set" - IC Thread

    Avardis sips thoughtfully at his beer, a smile curling one side of his mouth as he listens to the dwarf's salty description of the situation. He tears a small piece of bread from the loaf on the table and hands it to the black bird perched on his shoulder before replying. "I think it sounds...

    Insight's "Shadow of Set" - OOC Thread

    Ok, if you guys are talking about me, I'm very very sorry! I somehow lost the thread. It's not in my subscriptions any more (though I will re-add it) and I couldn't for the life of me remember who started it! :( I had inspiration this morning and remembered Insight. If I'm still welcome...

    Formians

    I've only used a Formian once. One of the (Lawful Neutral) PCs in my game had a Planar Ally class ability. He wanted to question a prisoner and asked his god to send somebody to help. When he got a Formian Taskmaster, he was very glad the party paladin was away, because from my description...

    D&D 4E Waiting to get 4e because of typos/errors

    Well that is one of the joys of electronic publishing. Not only can you make corrections more easily, you can actually get corrected text into your existing customers' hands instead of just providing it to new customers. Unless they're silly enough to print the book, of course. ;)

    Doctor Who - The Colour of Fear

    OOC: Glad you'll be back on Tuesday. It's a long week-end in the States as well, but I thought I'd get my first post in anyway... Jane gathered her things quickly and hurried out of the lecture hall, trying to catch the crowd of students in the hallway before it thinned too much. She was as...

    Monks vs. Ninjas (vs. Lawyers)

    Oh, come on. Everybody knows that wasn't a ninja. It was actually a pirate! :p

    Need some gladiatorial inspiration

    Ok, so it's been a few days, but here's my report: Things went pretty well overall. We had a small turnout of actual players, so we only had the fighter/duskblade, the favored soul and the monk. So I turned down the opposition a little. THere was the 10th level barbarian/frenzied berserker...

    Duskblade: 1st two feats

    Endorsed by Nail* *Seek your GM's approval. Your mileage may vary. Offer not valid where prohibited by law. Side effects include dry mouth, nausea, nosebleed and incredulous looks from your fellow players. Follow all label directions. ;)

    Duskblade: 1st two feats

    Is that valid? Since the save DC is based on the spell (rather than having its own as a special ability) wouldn't you have to increase your DC on the spell instead? Anyway, I third Power Attack. Combined with True Strike and a 2-handed weapon you can do some fairly obscene damage. And with...

    Experiences selling to Noble Knight?

    Thankee. I probably could have guessed that if I had tried. :)

    Experiences selling to Noble Knight?

    Linkage for this much-praised business?

    Races as breeds, not species?

    This is pretty much how the races in my campaign originated. Rather than specially-bred slaves, the main races emerged from a base stock tinkering with its own genetics. The original culture was at about the same level as Eberron (or maybe even a bit more advanced) but eventually tore itself...

    Need some gladiatorial inspiration

    This is great stuff everybody, thanks! The Dream Arena plot line starts tomorrow. I'm going to have the PCs all "wake up" in an impenetrable fog on sandy ground. The real arena is in a city on an island and the dream arena reflects this, so with the sand, fog, smell of the sea and maybe a...

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder - was it really that bad?!?

    I haven't seen it, but I knew it was in trouble when the whole point of the ad I saw was "This movie is really, really violent! Really!!!" :)

    Need some gladiatorial inspiration

    Cool. Funny you should mention the goblin rogues. I recently introduced a goblin NPC who is a former arena gladiator. He's got rogue levels and uses dual punching daggers.

    Need some gladiatorial inspiration

    Thanks, Crust. I think it'll work out well. Danny: Good point about the showmanship. I read rules somewhere about working the crowd. I think it's in Complete Warrior. I'll have to brush up on those. At least some of their adversaries are here voluntarily and will definitely play to the...

    Need some gladiatorial inspiration

    Lord_Zardoz: Thanks for the suggestions. Zombies (and all undead) are off-limits for campaign reasons. The PCs destroyed all undead in the world at the conclusion of the huge plot-line we just wrapped up. :) Hydras could be very cool and very appropriate! :) Displacer beasts and trolls have...
