Just gave a driftglobe to the players and was reading the details to help explain what it does, but it seemed mostly useless, except for the once a day daylight spell. It reads to me that it follows you 60 feet behind, but a light spell only has a 20 foot radius of bright light and 20 more feet...

How does one determine what spell is on a spell scroll? I know it is a level 1 spell from the table result, but not the class or actual spell. Am I missing a table somewhere or is this just supposed to be a GM call?

I am interested in setting up a campaign in the near future, Fantasy Hero, Stargate Hero or Champions. I am leaning towards Fantasy Hero, which will probably be fairly high powered. I am fairly flexible with time and location and could play at my house or any of several nearby gaming stores...

I am looking for a good generic high fantasy system. I am not fond of class and level based systems, so D&D is out. I am open to genreless systems like GURPS and Hero, but it would be good to find something flexible but built for fantasy. Am I missing something obvious?

I use Combat Manager on my laptop when I GM, so I have a good handle on initiative, hp and conditions. What constantly seems to cause me problems are triggered events, such as auras and reactive abilities. Does anyone have any ideas for a good reminder system so that I stop forgetting these...

I have some fellow players who are telling me that consecrated ground cannot be moved further from the cleric that the close range of the burst. To me, the text is clear that the intent is to allow it to be moved around on the battlefield. I think that the key phrase is "can move the origin...

When does the death saving throw count reset? For example, someone is dying and fails 2 saves before being raised back to positive hp. Later in the encounter, they are dropped back to negative and fail another save. Are they dead or have they only failed one save? I was playing in a group that...
