    Erik Mona's Lo-Fi Experience System

    I dropped xp entirely, simply leveling the pcs when it is story-appropriate. If the players feel that I've waiting too long, they let me know. Alignment has been dropped altogether. Since the current game is set in Eberron, it works really well. I use Action Points from Eberron, but hand...

    Far Realms poll

    If its any indication of how quick I would buy a book on the Far Realms, I just finished buying Dragon issue 330 off of Paizo.com after hearing about its subject matter in this thread. Details on the Far Realms is what I was hoping that Lords of Madness had more of. I liked the book, but it...

    Wildling Clasps?

    I may have the name wrong. Is there an item in 3.5 that allows a shapeshifter to use magic items in their shifted forms? I remember something from Masters of the Wild that allowed for it. I've got a Hengeyokai in my game that is asking for one. Does anyone have the specs/costs? (I'll house...

    Thank you! Will take some getting used to, but I like the logic of it.

    How do you DM High level and stay sane?! (Piratecat help!)

    Can anyone direct me to these stat blocks or an example of one? Would love to play around with the ones I use currently for ease of use.

    The party's cleric *won't* heal your character?!

    I've played with all types...a war-priest of Corellon who refused to heal, but used his spells for fighting, a neg energy priest of WeeJas that only healed, and with a Greenbond (AU) that was totally specced for only healing. As long as the player tells the group beforehand his plans, I don't...

    Does anybody use Master Maze for their gaming?

    I use it at my games. I have one set of the standard maze. I also bought 2 each of the 4 x 6 and 6 x 6 extras for my game. I find that I rarely use the walled parts, prefering to use the flat pieces most of the time. The only time I use the walled ones is when I run out. A friend bought me...

    Eberron-as corny as I think?

    I have yet to understand the point of these threads. "Oranges are incredible! I love oranges!" "No Apples are great! Oranges suck!" "No Apples suck!" blah blah blah You don't like Eberron's concepts, then don't buy it...that simple.

    Is it time to put the "A" back before D&D?

    When I was a kid and just beginning to play DnD, I was confused by the seperate books. Maybe I was a dumb kid, but I was only 12 and trying to understand this new and very complex game. Looks like the new shift in books is geared towards pulling in new blood instead of trying to cater to old...

    Ring of sustenance in something non-ring like ?

    Especially if it did nothing except keep you alive...meaning you were still thirsty and hungry. (thanks for the idea!)

    Eberron DM requests advice about PC/party motivations.

    I just started an Eberron game with the PCs as POWs in Cyre on the Day of Mourning. As the big blast came, they were swallowed by a living Teleport spell. Five years later, they pop out as an adventuring party of dwarves slew the spell. Now they are dealing with finding thier lives after five...

    10 Absolute Truths about the World of D&D

    Not to derail, but isn't Eberron built on these truths? I thought that was the point of the setting? Interesting thread btw.

    Ring of sustenance in something non-ring like ?

    A worm that you swallow. It is set on a command word to crawl out of you (through skin or less savory methods) if you wish to remove. If the owner dies, it crawls out and waits for a new host. :)

    Level adjustment

    As a GM, I would simply ask, why do you want to be a drow? Because they are cool and have a neat background? Or because you like the leet abilities they get? If its the former, then take standard elf abilities and lose drow specials because you went to the surface. Still got the cool history...

    Are you a Grognard?

    I guess Im a grognard too then. I remember huge SFBs where we had to use Cheerios because we ran out of drone counters for the Kzinti cruisers. Was a Federation man myself.

    DriveThruRPG.com to release 3.5 edition Dungeons & Dragons titles in eBook format

    I like having pdf copies of the books I already own, but at these prices I would basically be buying the book twice. No thanks. :(

    PHB2: Duskblade spell list... is there a correction out yet?

    Me and another player in my group had the exact same problem. The way they list the spell list on pg 24 makes it look like the sample pc's spell list, not the one for the class. Anyone notice that if you have a +3 or higher int bonus that you get shafted on 0 level spells? (of course I might...
