My game is going to be dealing with vampires for an adventure or two so I thought dropping one of these bad girls in would be fun. There isn't an "official" pennangalan yet (but there was some art floating about around MM2's release), but has anyone whipped up a homebrewed version? Or perhaps...

Especially the Mark of Scribing! You get 4 languages that you can retrain instead of the regular power/feat/skill and the ability to master all rituals (unlike the other feats which allow access to a narrow selection of rituals)! You can also scribe ritual scrolls in half the time. It's like 3...

Eberron Player's Guide Excerpts: Warforged Juggernaut Coolest warforged pic ever. I also wanna run a warforged rageblood barbarian/juggernaut now. It seems like a perfect match. Is this any different than the first Juggernaut we got?

5 14th lvl PCs were done in by 2 pod demons and 3 13th lvl mezzodemons. Earlier they handily dispatched a 14th and 15th lvl encounter and came into this one, a 16th lvl encounter, with plenty of surges, dailies, and item powers. The pod demons each started the encounter with their 4 podspawn...

Monster Manual 2 Excerpts: Pod Demon OK, this is a great monster! It has low HP for an elite, but it is constantly creating minions with its various abilities, sometimes for free! It can also swap places with one of its minions at-will, so if threatened, can create one in a safe spot & switch...

An adventure designed to take advantage of the lore established in the article Dragon 374: White Lotus Academy. I have yet to give this adventure a deep reading, but I quickly noticed the return of one of my favorite monsters: the spell weaver! In this adventure he's a "spell weaver...

Dragon 373: Player's Handbook 3 Preview Death Laser ftw!

Draconomicon - Bluespawn Stormlizard, level 9 brute. 217 HP. Does this seem a little... high? :erm:

Open Grave Excerpts: Rituals and Artifacts - AND TOC! :uhoh: :hmm: Fallen Seraph seems to be away from his post! Ooooh, 4 pages of liches! And Kyuss!

So, as my game continues I'm finding it harder and harder to make maps suitable for the minis aspect of D&D. The more control the PCs have over where they go and what they do, the more difficult it is for me to have maps ready in advance. So, I'm thinking about picking up some of the D&D...

Tonight the wizard wanted to attack an empty space with a shock sphere so that, when it exploded, it would catch as many hobgoblins as possible. Is this allowed? Our group thought it was fine, but I'm curious if the "rules as written" have anything to say about this.

So we just had our first death in 4th Edition last night! A sad day indeed. Party (2nd level) - Dwarf Fighter - Dragonborn Paladin - Human Warlord - Half-elf Cleric - Halfling Rogue - Elf Ranger This was the only encounter of the day, in essence a "random" encounter during their travels. They...

OK, I think I have the rules for hiding all sorted out. Someone step in here if they think I've got something wrong. First, we have the rules for making "Checks without Rolls" on pg. 179 of the PHB. This states that "in a calm environment (outside an encounter), when dealing with a mundane...

Ok, so I went out and picked up KotS today and a question came up while playing. It takes 1000 XP to level. The first encounter rewarded us with like 475 XP or something. Is this XP divided up amongst each party memebr, or does each PC get the full total? If so then we hit 2nd level after the...

This ability has always been one of those that stuck out as particularly odd to me - every monster with the swallow whole ability can automatically close any hole cut through their gizzard/stomach/whatever from the inside? What about holes cut from the outside? If monsters are still swallowing...

I remember Ari posted some fixes for the shadowcaster here, like bonus mysteries based on Int. I can't remember all of them however... did anyone save those somewhere, perhaps? I have a MIGHTY NEED of them!
