    Is Lich Worth It?

    I'm considering taking Lich for my Wizard (Necro specialty). After looking through it I'm hesitant. The +4 level adjustment is harsh, though I have trouble saying it's not worth it. Still, it doesn't exactly feel like Half Celestial or even Half Dragon. Yes, there are a lot of immunities and...

    Death Ward and Necromancers

    I'm looking at creating a Necromancer on Friday and was going through the spell list, checking to see what Death Ward blocks. I ran across a few that I wasn't sure about a few of them. Disintegration: Pretty sure no, as it doesn't say Death on it (nor is it Necromancy). Vampiric Touch: The...

    Can the Magnificent Mansion be dispelled?

    And what happens when it is? Poof, everyone falls on the floor? They're lost in the "space between"? *represses the urge to break out in song* I assume it can be dispelled or disjoined, as it isn't instantaneous. Still, doesn't that go against it's purpose? Why bother preventing someone...

    How to make House Rules fun. (Now with Beer!)

    We sat down tonight and, having a great time in the process, put together this list for a game that starts on Friday. In some cases it's just house rules that you'd find in most games. In other cases we're wondering at the IQ levels of players we've had in the past. So we thought we'd spell it...

    Some spells, a childish character, and a self-deprecating player. What's not to like?

    As long as each spell I've created has already been typed, I figured I'd put them out here. Feel free to peruse at your leisure and give any feedback that comes to mind. There will be errors, both miner and major. I've only been studying the book since Saturday night (about 4 days). It's not...

    Trouble with Area of Effect and Range.

    My current guess, based slightly on some example spells, is that I need to spend points on these seperately. So if I want a 30 ft range and a 20 ft radius would cost me 3 MP (Range 1 MP, Area 2 MP). How do Lines and Cones work?

    Missing Spell Lists. What happened to Create Water?

    I was going through, looking to design the spell Wet, Snapping, Towel when I discovered I couldn't find Create Water. I took a look around and couldn't find the following Create listings: Create Crystal Create Earth Create Ice Create Metal Create Water So, am I missing something? Are...

    EoM: What effect does an Evoke Chaos have on a CG, CN, or CE character?

    What effect does an Evoke Chaos have on a CG, CN, or CE character? It doesn't seem to be in the Evoke section and I thought I had read something about this a couple months ago. Any help would be appreciated.

    D&D 3E/3.5 Arcana Unearthed/Arcana Evolved mixed with 3.5.

    Here's a subject that's probably been discussed at incredible length* (but that's not unusual here) but I'm looking for the pitfalls of allowing these two systems to mix. Currently, I have a game in which both systems exist. Long story short is that a small 3.5 plane crash landed into an Arcana...

    Selling Used Items

    I seem to recall somewhere that selling used items gets you half price, which mostly makes sense to me (that's an awfully big mark up; perhaps magic items should be 75%). Of course, now I can't find any mention of it in the book. Thoughts?

    Hallow/Unhallow duration.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't Hallow/Unhallow both last a year?

    Elminster Novels

    I'm looking to start reading Elminster novels. Can anyone give me a good place to start? I've noticed that a lot don't seem to be in print anymore (I prefer not to buy used). (Crap, I got class. Gotta go!)

    Anyone else having a problem getting e-mail notifications?

    I've been noticing a lot of replies to threads I'm subscribed too and I'm not getting the e-mail notification. It's happened before, so I thought I'd check before I fall too far behind in my Story Hours. ;)

    BoED-Ancestrial Relic

    I had a flash of insight a few nights ago and popped open the BoED to the Ancestrial Relic page. Seems to make sense and isn't all that bad (in fact, I might allow it w/o the feat really) but I noticed a little discrepency. Seems, at 20th level, your Relic can be worth as much as 380,000 GP...

    Anyone got any good puzzles?

    Seems a couple of my players are looking for a change of pace and asked for puzzles. Well, I figure I'll throw a few out there and see what they think. If they like it, I'll put more in. If not, well, they don't. But, seeing as I had a little car accident and can't afford any new books right...

    How have you handled TPKs?

    Party totally wiped out or perhaps one or two left. Campaign lost or in jepordy. Character plot lines shreded. Can it be saved? Should it be saved? Let's hear some good stories. :)

    Hextor has fallen. Now I just have to make the stats. (Now Open to My Players)

    I've found myself at the end of my first longterm campaign with a BBEG that needs fleshing out. Through a complicated web of plot lines and beginner DMing, my players are now ready to encounter Hextor himself. Fallen from deityhood and trapped on the Material Plane Hextor but Hextor nonetheless...

    Weird problem with Word. (What happened to the friggen buttons?)

    No one knows how it happened. No one admits to being there when it happened. No one did it. And no one knows how to fix it. (See Attached Image): Normal methods of opening a drop down menu don't work (Alt+F). The toolbars (all of them) are gone. Toolbars are non-existant. Other shortcut...

    The rash of Double, Tripple, and Quadrouple (sp?) posts.

    These are appearing everywhere, two or three times in a row in some threads. I havn't noticed a commanality but there are far more than usual. Could this have to do with the lack of "thread updated" e-mails?
