I would start with the ad&d healer that can be found online. Change the cure spells to cause.

BlivetWidget in my game I increased the amount of experience required to level. To reach level ten requires 300,000. I do this because I never liked the level 1-20 in a year adventure paths. It felt too fast. People wouldn't show up unless we had the next dungeon magazine and most were not...

"Camping outside the BBEG's door?" Assuming the party has reached the "last" room of the dungeon it would depend upon the intelligence of the BBEG. Something like a jelly cube might sit there, owl bears make noise trying to find a way out, a wizard would have some escape magic.

Players would roll 3d6, DM would roll 3d6, you could pick the higher result and place in any order.

I would debate that the paladin is not based entirely on the "knight in shinning armour", for, if you consider Arthurian legend many of the characters therein are problematic in their actions and not fitting what a paladin is in game. There is not a particular figure to define the archetypal...

A ranger is to the druid, what the paladin is to a cleric.

I thought that being the third son or daughter would give you a greater reason to hire an assassin so you could then become the first and not have to enter a monastery/nunnery or marry a nasty older person.

Any sort of privilege is situational, a character could be incognito or in a place where no one cares. How is a noble to be recognized if he is wearing a head to toe cloak? If approaching a castle having his pennons flying and a herald to make announcements to be recognized is a courtesy...

I would have the ranger make a called shot and apply the player's stated goal if the attack was successful.

An alternative to direct damage; have the bow negate dragon abilities on a successful hit. This could be to prevent breath weapons, prevent fear aura, force to remain on the ground. Each making it easier for the party to slay the dragon.

An elven cavalier who at 13th level had the title Murderer of Angels, Slayer of Demons. How did this happen? Said cavalier went on a quest to find a way to resurrect another elf. In the seven heavens, tricked into slaying a solar for Lolth by one of her priestesses. To avenge being tricked...

I am in the middle of this. For my current campaign I took an old map of Europe. Doggerland, modified it somewhat, Iberia has been lengthened and broken into islands, then chose one area to start in, Luxembourg. This gave the players the world to look at and allowed me to make up rumors and...

I house ruled that the maximum size weapon one can use can be no more than 3x their height. Anything greater in length is too bulky to effectively use.

I do not run modules. However, if the module is well written there should be some sort of explanation as to how the villain escapes. In my game if I want a villain to escape during a specific scene I plan it so the villain is there is taunt and harass the characters. A medusa turns one...

From a psychological point of view, a box that is not full can cause people to feel they are not getting their money's worth. To this end one local shop will not stock box sets, for, the books out sell the boxes. A box set has to be special ordered. From the point of view of one's wallet, a...

If I were to purchase a box, I would like for that box to be filled. Why use a box 1.5 inches tall, if you only put .5 inches of material in it?

In my game it would only take a single first level fighter to take down any level you might possibly imagine. I use critical hit charts and appropriate weapon skills. Is using the terms AC, HP, EXP... enough to say you're playing d&d? Or do house rules and home brew content negate that?

Name: Scruffy Angie Rave: Human Sex: Female Appearance: She does not care, ribbons lace and frills are for the pompous dainty do nothings. Her sandy hair is cut short, very boyish. Her slate grey eyes are sharp and pick up on the finer details of her environs. She is lithe and seemingly bends...
