We are looking for a new player for our DnD 3.5 group. We play in Higashi-Koganei (Tokyo, chuo line) on alternate Sundays. The group likes a good mix of battle, character development, and a little humor thrown in. Most any splat book goes, but we are not a tactics oriented power-group (For...

Hi all, I am just starting to toy around with the idea of a home brew with no arcane or divine magic, only psyonics. So, I am turning to people here to help me think of what this world would look like. Here’s the thoughts that have worked their way into my fevered little mind so far. I will...

So I’m making mid to long-term evil plans for my campaign (I’m Dm). So, if someone casts “contagion” on someone, the initial DC is the normal DC for that level of spell, and the secondary DC is the one listed in the PHB. Here’s the question, can the victim then pass the disease to others? If...

Hi all, I am running a game where a player wants to make a non-evil necromancer. The flavor is that he’s a sorcerer, and his power comes from some kind of undead thing having to do with his or his family’s past (rather than the dragon blood idea usually associated with a sorcerer these days)...

Hi all, I have a PC who wants to play a necromancer. I don’t want him to be evil (I don’t like having evil PC’s in my games in general). So I have been thinking of some kind of contract people sign and sell/donate their bodies after death. A mage can then animate that body without the [Evil]...

HI all, I need some help. I am writing up some long-term goals for a campaign, and I need help deciding on a BBEG. Here’s the story… Hundreds of years ago, there was a great evil dragon, which as it approached death from old age used its magic to become a lich. Eventually, the lich was defeated...

Hi all, quick question for the math folks… I have a PC with an attack bonus of +12 / +7 Melee with a +1 Holy bastard sword that he sometimes uses one handed and sometimes two handed. His STR is 19, making the damage 1D10 + (1 Handed +5) (2 Handed +7) +2D6 holy is they are evil. I have the...

Hi all, I have been rebuilding a homebrew world, and I have been pondering NPC levels. To me, an experience point is defined as how much you learn from doing your job for one normal day. If you figure a normal commoner works most days, you can estimate about 300Exp per year of work for a...

Hi all, quick question. If you have two (or more) mages standing next to each other, can they 'share' a wand. Meaning that Mage A uses the wand and then holds it out to his side. Mage B then takes it and uses it and holds it out for the next guy. As far as I can tell, there is nothing...

Hi all I have (an odd) PC who just got his first Kensei level. So for now, his weapon has been enchanted to +1. For anyone who doesn't know, a Kensei can enchant his/her weapon to an overall bonus equal to his/her Kensei level. I'm planning on taking all 10 levels from here on. So… What...

Hi everyone, I am in the process of starting a new game (pimp sig) and I am wondering how other games deal with "before start time". By that I mean time a newly created PC is assumed to have used to craft things before s/he started 'being played'. For example, if a player makes a 1st level...

Hi all, I am in the process of starting a new game with a homebrew. So, I would love it if someone could read over my Homebrew introduction and tell me if I've forgotten something glaring. The intro is at http://www.tatsusargent.com/dnd_stuff/Sheelal_Introduction.htm THanks in advance ...

Hi all, does anyone know where I can find a master list of all the WoTC DnD books, and which ones are 3.0 Vs. 3.5 ? For example, is teh "Book of challanges" 3.0 or 3.5 ? Thanks -Tatsu

Hi all, my PC is approaching 6th level, and is in dire need of a feat. I was planning on taking "Divine Vigor" from DotF, but yesterday I finally got around to looking it up, and noticed that he doesn't qualify for it (doesn't have Extra Turning, Doesn't have a CHA 13 - that's 0 for 2 DOH!)...

Right, so it seems to me that the 3.0 weapon size rules were ok, but they were made odd by the names of the catagories (small, medium, large...) because they were the same as creature catagory names, but only loosely related. They were so confusing thet they changed the system, and gave us...

Hi all, what do you think about intimidating a paladin? Does the fear immuinity apply? I sent a question to Custserve, and here is the reply (which, IMHO, doesn't answer anything) ... So it seems odd to me that people around a paladin get +4 to resise being intimidated, but the paladin...

Ok, so I was giving a friend some advice about being a DM for the first time, and I looked around on the web to find a DM FAQ, or a list of commonly misunderstood rules. I couldn't find one, so I will try to get one started here. Please post the rules you believe are commonly misunderstood...

Hi all, I am thinking of redefining the cleave feat. I just don't like the "cutting through one person and hitting another" thing. It seems silly to me that just because you attacked the goblin next to me, and killed it, you get to attack me too. So, here is my proposal… --------- Quick...

Hi all, I thought up this question in the "bag of holding as transit" thread but am posting here to avoid a hijack. Here is the situation… Bob the fighter is unconscious (like, say -7 Hp), but his group thinks he is dead. Mike-o the wizard can teleport himself and three other people. So, the...

Hi all, I am making a new PC and I need some help / advice. The overall goal is to have a front line fighter type that's also fun to play out of combat. To do that, I want to pump up the skills (like Diplomacy, Sense motive, Knowledge (anything), other role playing type skills.) So, here is...
