    ZEITGEIST [ZEITGEIST] End of Eschatologist Arc in Adv #5 (Spoilers, naturally)

    Stanfield also has the advantage of his race. He can sacrifice himself "for the city" and come back a month later.

    ZEITGEIST [ZEITGEIST] End of Eschatologist Arc in Adv #5 (Spoilers, naturally)

    The price of mistake is pretty high, but the checks are only Easy to Moderate DC (better not spell it to players though). With half-decent player builds they are likely to autosuccess all of them even on bad roll, especially with conditional modifiers (Technologist, Arcana). Remember that...

    ZEITGEIST The affirmative action racial recruitment team of the RHC

    p.404 of compilation Act I, it's in adventure 5: How does one end up working in the Bleak Gate for a mysterious conspiracy? Most of the people here are patriotic soldiers and engineers, recruited with the promise of a chance to serve their country. In the aftermath of the adventure, the party...

    ZEITGEIST How do various races fit into Zeitgeist? (5E)

    Kobolds are Beran spies, led by El Extrano, they act a lot in later adventures. I gave them passive racial ability "hiding in plain sight", hence a Beran proverb that kobolds don't exist. Orcs and goblins are similarly in Ber, Warforged are not mentioned, but tie in nicely with Pemberton...

    ZEITGEIST How do various races fit into Zeitgeist? (5E)

    Checking Volo's guide... I'd say the main problem is not making RHC into a zoo of exotic races (and that's closing eyes on abnormally high concentration of eladrin women in first adventures...) instead of, you know, kinda serious FBI-like structure. Aasimar - see Lynia in Vault of Herecies...

    ZEITGEIST ZEITGEIST in legacy character builder

    My player partially implemented Monument of war paragon path for himself, but I am too lazy to do this properly :( https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B3W6zx8r8oxPZWowcGNFYmFWdzQ EDIT: here's a link to PartHelper, a little program for viewing/modifying CBloader parts in case you want to continue...

    ZEITGEIST On the Wayfarer's Lantern

    1. No comment but great find. 2. Lantern needs a material infused with the energy of corresponding plane to function. Either kind of witchoil should function. 3. Have you read adventure 7? Ob are mining meteorites from glacier at Knutpara at north Drakr 4. Inactive lantern is just a piece of...

    ZEITGEIST [Zeitgeist] Hot Air Balloons and Kites

    Found this in the player's guide, description of Ber in whole: Beran cities tend toward stout, vertical buildings with prominent rooftop perches. Dragons no longer alight these roofs, but they have become part of Ber’s romantic conception of its own identity. Many festivals are celebrated on...

    ZEITGEIST [Spoilers]Portals to Somewhere?

    A little something which I can't resist posting: Avilona connection breakdown is somthing which I consider a tiny gem of the campaign. It's never clearly stated, I believe, but in my head-canon it's not that Casvarina "broke something". It's because three thing happened at the same time...

    ZEITGEIST [Zeitgeist] Hot Air Balloons and Kites

    I can swear that somewhere (in adventure 6?) there is a side-note about annual festival of aeronaut enthusiasts in Ber. IMHO the main thing is not within the laws of the world, it's with the public. Think of it this way: it took thousands of years in our world to create a working airship...

    ZEITGEIST Ekossigan Diplomacy

    It's interesting how bloodthirsty he is in your view. IMHO it will all depends on wording and ideas of players. He should be opposed to the idea "King of Risur can grant you passage to Bleak Gate", but not to "King of Risur wants to help you in your righteous deed, but he is weak and needs one...

    ZEITGEIST Clergy hierarch information

    Do you mean Linia the angel from vault of heresies? It will be rather difficult to find the father then. Linia's staged death was the reason for the first War between Clergy and eladrins, which ended in First Victory circa 550 years ago. She's been imprisoned for the last 5 centuries... If it's...

    WotBS WotBS advice needed (SPOILERS galore)

    I have not run but only read through WotBS, so take this with a grain of salt: -from "general arcane point of view", recently local plane of fire became entangled with all teleportation magic; it's reasonable to assume that the reason "why?" is something a) magical b) of immense power c)...

    ZEITGEIST Caius Bargeron, Lya Jierre and a party that's screwed to a point they can't even comprehend

    Just a small note, it's unclear whether sending ritual works in the Danor dead magic zone, so Lya could be "out of service zone" most of the time.

    ZEITGEIST Starting Adventure Six Questions (possible Spoilers)

    Tell me more about high Perception, my eladrin artificer has passive Perception/Insight of 42 at level 13. If you're looking for Ob officers, check the roster at adventure 7, personally I'd try to introduce Vicemi Terio. An interesting tidbit of information is that he's Risuri in origin, kinda...

    ZEITGEIST Starting Adventure Six Questions (possible Spoilers)

    She's a minister of foreign affairs of Danor (Minister of Outsiders, I think it's called) and niece of Han Jierre. When your uncle and Sovereign of Danor commands you to jump, you jump, then you may ask some questions. If you want Lya with some genuine interest in Tinker, look at her this way: a...

    ZEITGEIST Starting Adventure Six Questions (possible Spoilers)

    Three parties were Pemberton (in dublicant body), with support of Teraklir and former-PC-turned-willing-servant-NPC (changeling gunsmith with somewhat weird and unhealthy father-daughter fixation on Teraklir, projecting his dead daughter on her), Lya with bodyguards and PCs. PCs offered a safe...

    ZEITGEIST Starting Adventure Six Questions (possible Spoilers)

    Partial answers: 1. As far as I understand, "human" face of Pemberton is just polymorphed dragon form. As he's definitely present in this form as dublicant in some places of the story, this means, that dublicants can have an arbitrary form, not necessarily based on a real person. 2. In my...

    ZEITGEIST [ZEITGEIST] Ideas for Leone Mk.3?

    Huh. I've bought and butchered WotBS for some ZG world lore, but never thought of Coaltongue Statue as Born 1.0, thanks EDIT: coDM wants Leone to dual-wield RSS Coaltongue and Born. I can't say I disagree.

    ZEITGEIST [ZEITGEIST] Ideas for Leone Mk.3?

    On the good side, we rescheduled the game, so I have more time to prepare. On the bad side, that was caused by my wife breaking her leg... Regarding the party, frontline: fighter eladrin with war shovel, two avengers (stealth-focused weretiger human and Hand of Goddess with Big Sword)...
